ALASKA PULP INDUSTRY

According to some Congressmen, the resolution now pending in Congress which would open the forests of Southeast Alaska to the pulp and paper industry hasn't much of a chance of passing at this session.
 Some opposition has been voiced by attorney representing Indian groups in Alaska and because 1t so late n the session and the matter has been made controversial these Congressmen advise that the measure has little chance of getting the calendar However, there is still hope
 Meanwhile it has been learned that delegation of Indians from Southeast Alaska will soon travel to Washington at the invitation of the Interior Depart ment the Alaska Native Service and Delegate Bartlett
 It has not been determined whether they will testify for against the pulp resolution however it is expected that they will be against it as it now stands.
 Don Poster General Superintendent of the ANS, has stated that he is definitely in favor of the resou ton and he has had several conferences with some of the Indians who will be going back to Washington.
 Money for the trip is coming from Hydaburg and personal loans The ANS has declared it doesn't have the funds to pay the expenses.
 Those making the trip will be Frank Peratrovich of Klawock Frank Johnson of Rake Andrew Hope of Sitka all members of the Territorial Legislature and Fred Grant of Hydaburg.
 It is expected that the delegation also will appear on the proposed bill granting the Interior Department the power to lease fish traps for Is years
 If these Indians oppose the resolution on pulp it would probably mean for certain that no action will be taken on the this session

A Soldering Conviction
Cincinnati Enquirerl


 That there some Communists in various gov ernment departments and agencies is fact every body knows The number may be exaggerated. The danger often is overstated. But they should be re- moved from Federal employment. And they are being removed although the process has to be slow if we are not to see good many unjust decisions made in haste.
 One means of weeding out disloyal bureaucrats is the loyalty test exacted of Federal workers. The easy way around this is for the Communists to deny his utilization to conceal his past affiliation But that may net always be the easy way. The case of Carl A. Marzani a minor official in the State De- parnent suggests that evasion of the loyalty test be costly.
 Found guilty Il counts of making false state- ments to government loyalty examiners, Marzani is subject 10 possible maximum sentence of llO years in prison, along with fine of S110000 Since Mar zani is 35 years old the maximum sentence would be rather bad -mannerd Even the sturdiest of Com munists hardly expect to live 145 years
 The conviction, however, will have salutary effect in the Federal service regardless of the tence imposed by the Judge For if it is made plain to all concerned that it's bad business to conceal facts in loyalty test we can expect and dis loyal employees to make clean breast of their short comings when the examiner comes around.
 And that is all the present purge seeks. The object is not to see how many Communists neo- Communists put in jail. It is to have as few Communists possible in the employ of the govern ment

Because we had the facil- ities. the printing was done in the United States The Soviet auth critics agreed to use German mark currency of the same design but refused the offer of the U. S.-U.

 On April 8, l944," continued the Assistant Secretary of War, the Russian Government sent note to the United States stating that if the plates were not delivered to the Russians, the Soviet Govern ment would be compelled to pre- pare independently military marks for Germany of its own pattern.
 On April IS. 194i. the Soviet Ambassador was furnished with glass negatives and positives of plates, together with technical in- formation on inks. paper, and other elements of the printing process. ?.
 Even the dry colors were shipped to the Soviet zone, and they print ed the currency with our own ink. Furthermore, they still have the plates and are still printing the currency, as far as Petersen knows.
 Senators Knowland of California, OMahoney of Wyoming and Morse of Oregon all joined Bridges in Vi gorous cross examination of the Army. However, they failed to bring out the fact that the Russian mon ey was printed with ar "O' pre- ceding the serial number, therefore could have been distinguished by U. s. authorities and refused as le- gal tender Instead a black market in cashing Russian printed money for U. $. dollars flourished i'll Ger many.

Here Is a suggested menu:
Grapefruit juice and cider cock
tail, roast chicken and stufing,
mashed potatoes, giblet gravy, cab
bage and apple salad, pumpkin pie
and coffee.

including the Washington Fedora
ton of Churches and Americans
for Democratic Action.
r. Meanwhile, another expert has

!. the food conservation front.
g Robert NJ Meehan, treasurer Of
the National Fisheries Institute and
. member of the District Citizens
Food Conservation Committee, said
yesterday that every American
should eat one extra meal of sea-
food each week.
