"COal Contract Will Retard InflatiOn''

WASHINGTON, (P) - George M. Humphrey, Pittsburgh coal and steel executive, said yesterday the new coal wage contract twill do more to stabilize the economy and retard imitation" than settle ment of any controversy in the industry in several years.
 Humphrey, who played major role in negotiation of the agree ment with John L. LewiS's united mine workers, told the join tCon- gressional committee on the eco- homie report that the contract will spur the output of coal, and add ed:
 Production, and only produc- tion which creates a balance of supply and demand is the only sure cure for the increasing wage and price spiral"
 Humphrey said the contract re- tards imitation "by avoiding a strike and all the resulting dam age that would surely follow from a deadlock.
 Humphrey testified after Earl Bunting, president of the national association of manufacturers, told the committee that the nation should be able to absorb this years "second round" wage with out going on an inflationary spree.
 The NAM head also declared the key to continued economic growth and prosperity is a united effort for greater production. plus tax cuts to provide venture cap- ital" for expansion of industry by 600,000 new jobs a year.

Truman Will Veto Revised Income Tax Cut Bill

WASHINGTON (P), The White House said that President Tru- mans message vetoing the new S4,000,000,000 income tax reduc- tion bill will be sent to Congress this week-probably on Friday.
 In advance of final Congression- al action on the Republican mea- sure, MT. Truman had given mo- tice that he intended to veto it as he had previous, similar bill. He also gave assurances that the veto would be forthcoming promptly after he received the legislation.
 Press secretary Charles G. Ross, in discussing plans for the veto message, told reporters that the bill is expected to reach the White House some time during the day.
 The possibility of putting the bill into law over MT. Truman's veto has virtually disappeared de- spite the 60 to 32 vote by which it passed the Senate yesterday. Al though this gave cut advocates a 28-vote margin, it fell two votes shy of the two-thirds needed to override Presidential rejection.

NOn-Assessment Work Law Applies To Alaska Only

WASHINGTON, (P)-Fred w. Johnson, director of the bureau of land management, said today many holders of U. S. mining claims have misinterpreted a Con- gressional act in postponing as- sessment work on their holdings.
 Johnson said public law 142 ap- proved by Congress June 30 mere ly suspended the statutory re- quirements for all mining calims in Alaska until July 1 next year.
 Holders of claims in the United States must perform a minimum of S100 worth of labor on the prop erty within the next 12 months to retain ownership.
 This is to prevent mine-holders from retaining land year after year without developing it.
 The requirement of annual as- sessment work, written into the 1872 mining laws, was suspended during the 1893-1894 depression, the Spanish American war in 1898, the World War from 1917 to 1921, and much of the time from 1882 onward during the depression and war years. However, the re- quirement again became effective. by Presidential proclamation, as of July 1, this year-for all U. s. claims except those in Alaska.

U. s. Prosperous; Alaska Broke; Why Asks Sundborg

ANCHORAGE, (P) - George Sundborg, former chief of the Alaska Development Board, said yesterday it was hard for him to understand why, in a period of unprecedented prosperity, Alaska was in economic chaos"
 Addressing the chamber of com merce, he said that all Territorial activity, from road construction to school operation, was likely to come to grinding halt"
 q see no way to alleviate the problem" he said. Alaska can't borrow like a State, as it is not al- lowed to assume debts; There is no room for economy in govern mental salaries-as the legislature learned; there is no means to ac- quire sufficient revenue to carry on government"
 He charged there were two groups in the last session, one of which was "anti"-a group against nearly every issue, like spoiled children. They voted only against the Governor"
 Sundborg observed it was "up to the steamship companies to come down" in rates, for they are themselves driving trade away freight rates are higher in Alaska than anywhere in the world"

Forest Fire On Kenai Peninsula Moves Forward

ANCHORAGE, (P)-The raging Kenai peninsula forest fire moved forward on a 70-mile front yester- day as weary fire fighters hoped for favorable wind to permit backfiring at a hastily constructed fire block four miles from the threatened fishing village of Kenai.
 The tiny village stood only six miles from the flames Monday af- ter the fire jumped a 4-foot pro- tective block Sunday.
 Smoke from the fire hung oyer Anchorage last night the heaviest since the blaze began five weeks ago. Planes were unable to land and motorists were forced to use headlights, although normally 1t is light until midnight at this time of year.
 Kasilof, about 30 miles to the south of Kenai, also lay in the path of flames. Although the town itself is not believed in immedi- ate danger because of surrounding sWamps and cleared land, many homes and much rich timber land and wildlife were feared lost.
 Army fire maps show 400 spot fires dotting the peninsula with smoke towering 15,O00 feet.
 SEWARD, (P)-A smoke cloud darkens the sky over the Kenai peninsula from Seward to An chorage, but Dan Ralston of the federal fish and wildlife service said today the moose have become so accustomed to fire that they graze unconcernedly within 1000 yards of the blaze which has rav- aged 300,000 peninsula acres.
