Law Retoding Is Undecided
 Under Freeze
More Details on Adminis- trdtion Bd. 0rder-HeaIth
 Dept. Is Special Case

some further details were given out today by Attorney General Ralph Rivers concerning operation of the Territorys business under the Administration Board order which went into effect yesterday freezing appropriations made by the Legislature for the l947-4s biennium.
 The order was made because of the gap between the estimated Territorial income and the auth orized appropriations created by the Legislature, and would halt mainly all new construction of schools, hospitals, roads, airfields and boat harbors.
 Going expenses of Territorial offices or departments should not be affected by the order, insofar as their regular expenses are con- cerned. Nor, explained MT. Rivers, will the order halt projects already started under the previous bien- nium, or completion of any con- tracts that may already have been let, or payment of outstanding ob- legations
 The question of whether the Territory should go ahead with the program of recompiling the Laws Of Alaska, as provided for by the Legislature, was taken up especially by the Administrative Board, said MT. Rivers.
 ''The call for bids was made be- fore the freezing order went into effect" he stated, and this mat terswill be decided by special board action when the bids ar rive"
 Rivers added the comment that there was no emergency clause on the bill for recompiling the Laws of Alaska, so that the order can not go into effect until 90 days after the close of the Legislative session.
 Questioned as to the status of the University of Alaska under the order, Rivers explained that it's operation and maintenance is taken care of under the Public Schools. But, as stated in the Administrative Board order, all new construction at the University has been killed until the order is lift ed, along with contracts for building new rural schools.
 Asked specifically concerning the Territorial Department of Health, the Attorney General said, Gen orally speaking, the health program will be exempt as necessary ad- ministration expense of Territorial offices"
 Both the Welfare Department and the Health Department may find it necessary to make certain limitations in the number of cases they can handle, refusing some borderline situations.
 Much of the case money for the Health Department comes from Federally allotted funds, he ex- plained, saying that there is no intention to freeze the disburse- ment of Federally allotted money"
 Crippled and dependent children will definitely be exempt from the freezing order, and aid will be available for them.
 So far as the Tuberculosis pro- gram is not covered by specific exemptions, the Board will modi- fly it's order insofar as such pro- gram is regarded as of the same character as the program for in- digents and pioneers.
 MT. Rivers stated that there may arise a necessity for a special or der by the Administrative Board for the Health Department.

its agents in the many mines make IN

This was done in the year 1916. and

events have prove could have beer

miners ~tgranted after a Today strike)

This constitutes an unfair labor

workers in the mines of Butte were

tiOns) can and does produce a large
and s~ubservient class OF citizen work
ers. And it is not desirable or good
for any community in the United
States with its concepts OF democracy,
to permit the practice OF coercion that
the ACM has adopted as its policy.
The policy Of coercion produces
many by-producis. all Of them bad and
undesirable. As an example. the case
Of the Anaconda Wire a. Gable co.,
an important subsidiary of the ACM.
can be cited: This subsidiary was hal
ed into court and convicted OF deIV-
ering to the United States government
in time OF war. defective material
which went into such war machines as
airplanes. The Company paid fines
totaling $1,626.o 900.
1t is readily and reasonably deduct
ible that loyalty TO the Company had
been developed to a high degree in
the personnel OF the Anaconda Wire
L. Cable Co., otherwise some among
that personnel would have disclosed
the use Of faulty material before II
went into airplanes and other war ma
chimes, thus ~endangering the lives OF
the defenders OF the United States.
The practice of coercion by the
ACM Co. as %instanced in l946, is re
pugnant to all right-thinking people,
it is a degrading influence on the citi
zenship, 1t Is not a part OF the aims
and ambitions for which American
young men and women fought II
World War II, and in fact, is a positive
negatiOn OF all that is desirable ant
worthy in a free and independent citi

The discrimination practiced by thu
ACM has been and is being fought b.
