Lak of Funds May Close
 Tuberculosis Sanaforium
 At5eward, Says A|bretht

The tuberculosis sanatorium at Seward, the only such institution serving Interior Alaska, may be closed down, greatly jeopardizing the tuberculosis program in Alaska, unless the Senate of the United States restores funds for the AL aska Native Service knocked out by the House subcommittee on ap- propriations, Dr. C. Earl Albrecht, Territorial Commissioner of Health, warned today.
 At present, Dr. Albrecht said, the Seward sanatorium is being maintained on a cooperative ba- sis with the Federal government. The Territorial Legislature has contributed the Territory's share, he said, and 1t was expected that the Federal government would carry it's share of the load.
 There are now AT patients in the sanatorium who are beneficiaries of the Federal government, 34 who are being cared for by the Territory, and four veterans.
 Dr. Albrecht said an appropria- ton of $200,000 for the Alaska Ma tive Service, earmarked for the Seward sanatorium, would be suf- ficient to carry on the work there for another year.
 However, unless the United States Senate sees fit to restore this amount to the ANS budget, pr. Albrecht pointed out, the Sew ard sanatorium will have to be closed down because the Territory cannot operate it alone.

House Unit ProposesD. &c. Guard
Be Made Federal Responsibility

Under present law explained
the report, the commander-1n-
chief of the District National Guard
is the President of the United States
tin State Guards it is the governor
except in time of war; The Ma
tional Guard exists in the District
to preserve or restore order II
matters are beyond the capacity OF
the police forces.
I'm this event we are constrained
to believe that the National Guard
would and should be used to pro-
tect the buildings, property, and
records of the Federal Government
so that the Government of the
Nation would not be interrupted.
TT might be argued that the
President of the United States is
also commander-inchi of the reg
ular Army and Navy and, in the
event OF a real emergency, units Of
these forces would be called upon
to protect Federal property. If
such is the case, there would little
need tor a National Guard in the
District except as training unit in
the event of national emergency"
Evening star., 1947-11-02

The section of the Aucht71cIoss
report relating to fiscal orgdnt-
cation OF the District tollotos, in
part.
Home rule for the District
would not be effective unless the
District had control over its own
fiscal affairs. Control of funds,
in the last analysis. is final au-
thority; and unless the District
has this authority, or substan-
tial part of it, local self-govern-
ment would be that in name
only.
This does not mean that Con-
greSS should relinquiSh control
over the fiscal affairs of the Dis
trict. The stake of the Federal
Government in the District is
too great to permit that. 1t does
mean that the annual chore of
the subcommittee of Congress
on the District should be dis
continued and the responsibility
for oversight of District expendi-
lures left to an alert staff of
the Joint Standing Committee
on the District of Columbia who
can call to the attention of the
committee any unusual items on
which hearings can be held and
a suitable report made to Con-
gress.
The difficult task of preparing
local tax legislation also should
not fall upon an already over
worked Congress. The joint
committee would, of course, con-
slider all tax bills proposed by
the District and recommend a
legislative veto of those they be-
lieved were opposed TO the Fed
eral interests. 1t would be
appropriate for any member Of
Congress, during the period when
the bill is pending before them.
to move for diSapproval which,
il passed by both houses, would
be a legislative veto. Congress.
by the methods herein proposed,
will have lost no essential ele-
ments of its control over the
District or its fiscal affairs.
If q home-rule local govern
ment is established for the Dis
trict, Federal agencies should
discontinue their present activ-
tiles as budget officer, banker,
bookkeeper, disbursing officer
and fiscal control officer for the
District.
