GOVERNORS TRIBUTE

Alaska's Governor today paid the following tribute to w. Leonard Smith:
 "The death of Leonard Smith is a great loss to the Territory. He has been a conspicuously able and devoted public servant, first in the Legislature where he represented the Second Division, later as a member of the Territorial Board of Education, and, for the last two years, as Territorial Highway En- gineer. His service has been marked by high degree of conscientious ness, technical competence and a full understanding of the problems involved.
 Leonard Smith will be missed by his many friends but he leaves permanent place in the history of the Territory, to the advancement of which he contributed notably He could leave no finer legacy tc his family"

The W ashingto Merry Go Round
Bv DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON-Republican pol itical strategists who winced every time the late Franklin Roosevelt linked the Republican party with the big bankers, now aren't wincing anymore. In fact, Truman'S recent appointments have brought broad grins to Republican faces, for no longer are they worried by that big business banking bugaboo.
 Especially interesting to Republi- cans are Truman'S latest appoint ments to the air corps. They in- clude: Arthur S. Barrows, President of Sears Roebuck and Director of the Illinois Continental Bank, as Undersecretary, with Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney, polo-playing chairman of Pan American Air ways, as Assistant Secretary.
 These appointments follow other banking appointments, Il b y General William Draper, former President of Dillon Read, as Assistant Secretary of War, and James Forrestal, also of Dillon Read. as head of National Defense It was the Wall Street firm of Dill lon Read which poured about $200,- 900. 1000 into Germany after the last

DON'T WANT THEIR LAND
 EXPLOITED
Case Presented in Court of Claims by James Cur
 rY, Attorney

WASHINGTON, Oct 1.-lR- Two Indian tribes went into court today to keep the white man from exploiting their ancestral domain in Alaska.
 The suit was filed in the court of claims by James E. Curry, Washington attorney, in behalf of the Tlingit and Haida tribes made up of 5000 natives of the Alaskan Panhandle.
 They contend that lumber com panies, fish canneries and mining interests have been stripping their land of resources which the Fed eral government promised by treaty to protect for their enjoyment.
 The suit said the government has failed to enforce laws forbidding outsiders to trespass on Indian lands. In fact, the Indians con- tend that the government has taken or encouraged others to take most of the property without com lJcllShlOll
 About l5,OOo,ooo acres of a do- main of 16,o0o,O00 acres already have heen lost, and the million other acres are being stripped of resources without regard to prop erty rights, one suit says.
 Curry suggested that the suit might serve to clear up confusion over land ownership in the Alaskan development.
 Filing of the suit was announc- ed by the National Congress of American Indians, whose Secretary Ruth M. Bronson, herself mem Der of the Cherokee tribe, said; This is a red letter day in Indian history"
 Curry said in a statement that the suit against the Government was authorized by a Congress that wanted to see justice done between the Great White Father and his helpless wards"
 This act of Congress" Curry said, was passed in 1885 and cov- cred only damage done before that date. For damages done in the future, we expect to sue not the government but private parties that try to make away with native pos sessions

EAT LESS

 REQUEST
President Makes Appeal to Americans So 10 Aid
 European Relief

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-lR- President Truman today asked the American people to eat less bread and thus help save 100,000,OO0 bu- shels of grain for European aid.
 He also asked reduced feeding of grain to livestock
 Addressing the first meeting of his citizens food committee at the White House, MT. Truman ex- horted:
 We must get prices down and help hungry people in other coun- tries at the same time
 MT. Truman said the saving ask ed of each individual is actually very small.
 One bushel of grain saved by every American in the next few months will do the job he said
 Responding for the 26-member committee, Chairman Charles Luck man reported that thousands of letters offering voluntary help have poured upon the committee since it's creation last Thursday
 MT. President, tEe people oi America have never failed in the accomplishment of any war, Luckman said. They will not fai in this war on hunger. On theil behalf we pledge you our most earnest endeavors.'

BARTLETT RALLY
 WELL ATTENDED
 BY DEM0(RATS
Delegate Makes Only Ad-
 dess of Evening 0pen- ing Campaign for 48

"The people of Alaska deserve and expect a greater share of this Territory's resources Delegate E. L. Bartlett said last night.
 Bartlett addressed nearly 200 Democrats at the no-host rally and banquet, arranged in his honor by local party members, and given at the Salmon Creek Country Club.
 T say to you" Bartlett contin- ued. that the people of this Ter ritory are not going to look kindly upon the performance of a legisla- ture which for the first time since 1892 had one house, controlled by Republicans, which brought about reduction of pioneers pensions in an inflationary period, failed to provide money for essential govern mental services. and otherwise con- ducted themselves in an irrespon- sible manner"
 Bartlett, who is leaving for Washington soon, is candidate for renomination at the April primar- ies. As he will not be ill Alaska to participate in campaign and the rally was held for him prior to his departure.
 Both the banquet hall and main room of the Country Club were crowded with enthusiastic Demo- crats. Following a turkey dinner and spontaneous community sing ing. Judge William Holzheimer, as toastmaster, made a brief political talk
 Lew Williams read telegrams from Democratic National Commit teeman, Howard Lyng, and w. c. Stump, Acting Chairman of the National Committee Alaska's Gov ernor spoke briefly, praising the work of Delegate Bartlett, who was then introduced by Judge Holz- heimer.
 
 Bartlett began with birthday greeting to Holzheimer, who was 77 on Monday. He then called upon all Democrats to unite in coor- dinated effort to draw close our ranks, so that our strength shall not be dissipated.
 Tn party sense,' he said, we here in Alaska have been coasting on past glories."
 Calling attention to the Terri tcrial convention in January, ne said, We must address ourselves to the task of party reconstruction as the first order of business
 Hits Civil Serv.ce
 Bartlett attacked the whitening blight of an imperfect civil service. y There should be civil service pro- lection for the rank, and file, but policy making officials too often subordinate public welfare to then desire to stay on the payroll until reaching retirement age. (Contfnhed on Page TrC

R AL MEN DEMANDING
 WAGE RAISE
Five Brotherhoods Asking
 for Minimum Boost of B Per Day

CHICAGO, Oct. l.--tR-A formal demand for 30 percent wage in- crease for more than 350000 mem- bers of five operating railroad bro therhoods has been made by the unions on the nations carriers.
 The notices for the hike in wag- eS, with a minimum boost Of 8 a day, set in motion the machinery of the National Railway Labor Act under which disputes in the indus try are handled.
 Rejection of the wage demand by the individual railroads was expect ed and would result in arrange ments for negotiations on nation wide basis. The carriers wage con- ference committee, representing the country's railroads, said granting the wage boost would add S400,- 100000 to rail transportation costs annually.
 In addition to the pay raise de- mand, the operating brotherhoods representing the engineers, firemen, conductors. trainmen and switch men, also have made demands for changes in A working rules. Ap- proval of the changes, railroad spokesmen said, would add Sl,000,- 100000 tbillionl annually to operat- ing costs.

Russia (urfIy Refuses 12
 US. Senators Visit Moscow

WASHING ION, Occ. l. - lR-A curt refusal by Russia to let F Seniors visit Moscow brought de- mands by two Congress members today for a tougher policy on ad- mitting Soviet citizens into this country
 The Soviet Foreign Ministry de- clined to issue visas either for mem bers of the Senate appropriations Committee or John Peurifoy, Assist ant Secretary of State, to make an inspection of the U. s. Embassy. The explanation to Ambassador Walter Bedell Smith says:
 "Inasmuch as the USSR is not considered a country that could be made the subject of an investigation on the part of the visiting Senators, we do not consider their trip to be suitable"
 Senator Bridges (R.N.HD, Chair man of the committee, declared the incident raises the question of how much lcnger the United States will permit .indiscriminate admission of Soviet subjects and sympathizers. '
 Senator Dworshak R.-Idaho), a member of the group, told a report CT there should at least be a careful scrutiny of any such admissions in the future.

TAFT BLASTS DEMOCRATIC
 REGULATION
Seorohing Indictment ol "ToiaIitarian" of Tru-
 man Administration
By JACK BELL

ENROUTE WITH TATE TO CHEYENNE, Wyo, Oct l. - lR-- Labelling the Democratic opposition as "an unnatural party" Senator Taft CR.-Ohio) predicted today that the Republicans will win full control of the government in 1948 because the people are tired of 'regula- tion.'
 The Ohio Senator, invading Wyoming today in quest of support in his possible bid for next years COP presidential nomination, car ried along a scorch;ng indictment of what he called the 'totalitarian' aspect of the Truman administra- ton.
 The philosophy of totalitarianism is still more taxes levied by the gov ernment, more spending by the gov ernment and more regulation by the government" he declared.
 That, Taft told an audience of Republicans in the Boise, Idaho, high school auditorium last night, indicated three reasons why the Republican Party is going to come back to power in the United States" in 1948
 Taft said there had been so much regulation" of the lives of the people by Washington pureaucrats" that local government has almost disappeared. He said that citizens going to Washington got only per functory hearing from Federal of ficialS.
 "These bureaucrats are not going to change their views because of some nick from the sticks the Ohio Senator declared in a surpris- ing departure from the formal lan- guage he usually uses in addressing audiences.
