 How the two aid the author ities in discovering the criminal and the motivation for the kill ing is said to be excitingly tolo in the climax.
 The three Mesquiteers, Bot Steele, Tom Tyler and Rufe Da- wis in Outlaws of Cherokee Trail, is the other feature. It is a Western story, planey of gunplay thrills in every reel, and of course there is a pretty girl involved. She is Lois Collier.

make outright grants of l60 acres of Alaska public lands to each of .Alaska's World War II veterans, with usual homestead requirements by-passed
 Terrible Memorial'
 Senator Don Carlos Brownell was first to find fault with the mea- sure. He labelled it "a terrible memorial" which would exclude bona fide Alaska settlers from any chance at public lands of any value, as they all would be snatched up by the veterans. He held the mem orial to be ridiculous"
 Absurd was the descriptive term used by Senator o. D. Coch- ran, who agreed with Brownell that action proposed by the memorial would result in 97 percent of AL askas usable land being tied up for speculative purposes. Cochran moved indefinite postponement, but the measure missed that fate by 6 to 10 margin.

 Need Broader Terms
 Senator Brownell, objected strong ly to the language employed in writ ing the memorial and less strong y to it's intent. On the language he was supported by Cochran, who advocated that it be framed in broader terms. Before passing the measure. the Senators did strike out one whereas" the accuracy of which was doubted
 Brownell's argument was that Not only is the wording of H. J M 4 "atrocious" but he thinks at- talnment of its purpose would put American ships out of service tc Alaska, and he doubts that inn proved service to all the Territory would result.
 Brownell and Rogge voiced the mo" votes on passage.
 One other measure, H. B. 6, by Rep. Engstrom, dealing with mar riage laws and egitimatization ol children, was considered briefly be- fore being turned over to the Judici' ary Committee to be dovetailed ir with two other bills on the same general subject matter

S0LONS KILL PAIR
 OF VET MEASURES
Jones Act Memorial Pass ed with Amendment
 by Upper House

Two measures of the ito benefit veterans" category were given rough handling by the Alaska Sem ate yesterday afternon. One of them ran into prompt and inde- finite postponement while the other was twice voted down.
 Senate Bill 54, request measure tossed in by Senator Edward D. Colfey, did not even have the full sympathy of its sponsor. Coffey asked that Veterans Affairs Com missioner Norman Haley give his views on the bill Haley stated that he was opposed to every amendment to the Veterans Act proposed by s. B. 54. The Sena- tors. who were willing anyway, then postponed the bill by, an H. 5 vote, without further ado.
 s. B. 54 sought to do number of things to the present World War II Veterans Act, such as. Provide appointment Of members of the Veterans Board only from persons recommended by the American Le- zion and Veterans of Foreign Wars; require approval of all Board members on loan to a veteran in any amount. exceeding $5 1000; in crease the per diem of Board mem bers from $l0 to $20, and make the loan benefits of the Vets Act avail able to non-Alaskan veterans who may since have lived two years in the Territory.
 Professional Veterans"
 Haley characterized the amend ment to change the manner of ap- pointing Board members as one that would put minority groups and professional veterans" in control He agreed with Senator Walker that his interpretation of the term professional veteran is "one who always wants to capi- talize on his services to his coun- try"
 That same appellation was call ed upon by Walker, in discussion of House Joint Memorial No. 5, which the Senate failed to pass, then later refused to reconsider when the House requested that defeat of the measure be rescinded.

The Not-So-Durk Aces

Certain alarmed commentators
possibly too alarmed-are saying
that western civilization seems
clearly to be falling apart. They
may or may not be right; time alone
will tell whether they are or not.
But when they add that the world
Is in danger" of reverting to the
Dark Ages" they are wide open not
merely to challenge but to outright
correction as well.
It is about time that the so-called
Dark Ages" received square deal
To begin with, although loosely
catalogued as the several centuries
between the fall of Rome and the
Renaissance, they did not begin and
end on such-and-such dates. All
one can be sure of is that no period
in history has been quite so mis-
represented and libeled as these
early medieval times. Fifty or hun
dred years ago there might have
oeen some excuse for speaking of
them in a derogatory sense. But
there Is no excuse now, the fact
being that scholars have uncovered
enough evidence to prove that they
were IN many respects brilliant-not
dark" not something to be thought
OF with a shudder, not a deadly
epoch that mankind is in "danpern
OF reverting to-
Actually the Dark Ages" belong
too much to medieval civilization
to be classified separately. They
were time that cannot sensibly be
belittled. As the Encyclopedia
Britannica says, IF we search in
history for examples of sheer good
ness, or Of forms of delicate percep-
ton, or Of intellectual greatness. of
legal acumen or of constructive
ability, we can find them as readily
In the Middle Ages as elsewhere, Just
as we find, as nowhere else, depths
OF religious experience" We can also
find in this period-and perhaps to a
much lesser degree-persecution,
cruelty. decadence and all the other
manifestations of evil that can be
found now.
The encyclopedia, rejecting the
findings of scholars, is frankly
exasperated with muddled talk about
the Dark Ages" Remember, 1t says,
that they were times when intel

On the Record
BY Dorothy THOMPSON

With the President, Gen. Marshall.
1ormer Se---- -.ary of State Byrnes and,
apparently, Senator Vandenberg urging
immediate ratification Of the treaties
with the Axis satellite states-Italy.
hungary, Romania and Bulgaria-it is
olfrcult and may, indeed, seem pre-
sumptuous to express any doubt, how
ever humbly, whether this counsel is
altogether wise.
None OF our statesmen Is defending
these treaties in principle. They are
quite unable to do so They are defend
ing them, as President Roosevelt de-
1ended the Yalta Agreement, with a
wry lace, as the best we could get
They are defending them as real
pol1tik," that German concept of politics
which has become uniersalized. as
though to prove Emersons remark that
we tend to become what we hate"
The Secretary Of State urged ratifica-
ton that his hand should be strength
ened in Moscow, whittier he has since
departed. He argued that the principal
provisions of the treaties were based on
recommendations of the Conference Of
Paris adopted by two-thirds vote, and
that this is the kind of cooperation
which we must encourage If we are to
build enduring peace
But the peace treaties Of 1919 repre-
sented just this kind Of cooperation,
based on struggles Of interest among the
victors, divorced from any principles in
cluding those of Woodrow Wilson.
Those treaties did not bring enduring
peace. And these, more completely di-
vorced from the Atlantic Charter than
the 1919 treaties were from the Fourteen
Points, are worse than the former
treaties were-much worse.
Former Secretary Byrnes went into
the matter farther, describing the situa-
tion in Venezia Giulia. What he said
was more ominous than encourag ging.
\
I'VE were compelled to choose between
internationalizing Trieste or having no
agreement at all. - Nationals Of
Yugoslavia were moving into the city.
It Is probable that there would
have been rioting. Then Yugoslavia
would declare it necessary to quell the
rioting on It's border and would send
troops to Trieste" Therefore, Yugo-
slavia Was threatening repetition Of
