 Disputes over legacies political as well material are not new so it is not surprising considering the many notifications of the New Deal that there should be rival claimants for what has been left by it's deize Henry Wallace get the jump when he and his followers organized the Progressive Citizens of America designed make little less obvious the pink haze which has surrounded the Political Action Committee where Eenrys following was largest. Now their right to the Roseveian legacy is disputed by Americans for Demo cratic Action who differ chiefly from the Wallacetes in their determination to prevent Communists rom hornng in. Both groups want to carry the New Deal banner not only at home but in foreign fields, but the A. D. A. proposes to be more particular than the P C. A. about who may join their procession They want only followers who favor application of the four freedoms both sides of the iron curtain and have inserted plank their platform which declares
 We reject any association with Communists
 CT sympathizers with Communism in the
 United States completely as we reject any
 association with Fascists and their sympathi-
 gers. Both hostile to the principles of
 freedom and democracy which this Republic
 has grown great
 As standard bearers, the Americans for Democratic Action have such New Deal stalwarts Leon Tender son, Wilson Wyatt David Dubnsky and Elmer Davis And right up front to substantiate their claims to the Roosevetian heritage Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt and Franklin Jr It is typical of probate actions that the claimants there to estate the fun the public gets cut of it.

THE AUDITORS REPORT

Perusal of the Biennial Report of the Auditor of saska complied fer submission to the Eighteenth
 rrtorial legislature disclosss several eye-opening facts:
 Perhaps most commentabe is a two-year increase If zJ employees on the Territorys payroll Territorial employees during the biennum 1943-44 totaled 553 he number of employees working for and paid by the Territory including heads of office during the period 0446 totaled ITS The increase is attributable main- H t the creation of four departments of govern in Department of Taxation. Alaska Development Beard Department of Agriculture and the World War T Veterans Board-plus substantial increase in the number of teachers in the Territorial School System both within and without incorporated cities and addi liens to the faculty of the University Of Alaska The four new departments among them had 27 employed.
 Other major employee increases are found within the Department of Health nearly doubled - the Pieneers' Hcme and the Unemploy ment Compensati n Commission The Treasurers Office lists staff de crease from II nine employed and the Alaska M Tit System from two to employed
 Since the Health Department, by legislative action, has been transformed virtually into a new agency with added responsibilities and has been armored for decisive campaign against tuberculosis some staff increases was to be expected there. And recoectng the undermanned school staffs during the war years swelling teaching ranks is to be applauded rather than criticized.

NO LAME-DUCK JOBS

Here's some bad news for Demo- cratic Congressmen and Senators defeated in the last election who have been priming the White House for Federal jobs:
 President Truman has adopted a new policy-no lame-duck appoint ments, barring exceptional cases.
 This is the story behind the hope of Senator Jim Meads friends to land him a diplomatic post or some other top job.
 Truman and Mead are old and close friends. fought shoulder to shoulder in many Senate battles, and when Truman became Vice President in 1914, Mead succeeded him as Chairman of the War h. vestigating Committee. However, several times recently when White house advisers raised the question of putting the able New Yorker somewhere on the Federal payroll, Truman replied with flat mo"
 If the people of state or a congressional district have decided that they don't want a man in Washington by voting him out Of office, why should I go against their judgment by appointing him to some job as a reward for being defeated?" the President said.
 So far, none of Truman's advis- CTS has thought up good answer.

STANDARD FAvoRs DECREASE

Standard Oils Frank Pierce, an expert labor relations man, also put the match to the high price boys, arguing that industry had to exercise it's leadership by cut ting prices.
 Yes" Pierce ecid, industry will have to exercise it's leadership by exposing the food and steel trusts which have created such an out rageous situation"
 Pierce didn't mention it, but pos s.bly he had in mind the recent study of government economists which shows how the food indus try's profits have scared as much as 25O percent in recent months.
 Armour's increased it's profits 23l percent for the first nine months of 1946 over the same period of AS, Sunshine Biscuits profits after tax esl rose 122 percent, United Bis cults profits rose 205 percent, the creameries of America made 67.3 percent more, while wages dropped to a level lower than on V-J Day.
 Finally, U. s. Steel's Stephens said he thought the others were being a little rough on him. The way to lower prices, he claimed, was through high production and fewer strikes. To this, Ford's Bugas retorted that, with prices so high, strikes were inevitable.

 "The engineers employed by in- dustry," Pierce said, have been able to develop production techno- lo2y to it's highest efficiency, but they have ignored or overlooked human technology There's no req son why the auto industry can't work more than seven months year. Not to do so is waste of .manpower."
 Young Ford replied that he hop ed to see the day soon when the auto industry was able to provide it's workers with year-round em- ployment.
 It was few days thereafter that Ford made his sensational an- nouncement reducing the price of his cars.

 Hamalainen, who is q years old, arrived here Sunday by Pan Ameri- can plane from Seattle, accompan- jed by his uncle K. Raatikainen, of Pelican. lie made the trip across the Atlantic on the liner Grip sholm, then flew to Seattle via United Air Lines. Raatikainen met him at Seattle and together they flew here.
 They planned to board the little mail boat Aurora, owned by Raati- kainen, for the short trip to Peli- can. But the Taku ruled differ ently. The Aurora has been here since last week and has made sev- eral attempts to luck the winds up Stevens Passage, without success.
 Although Arvo has had the equiv alent of a high school education. and hopes to be able to enter either tke University of Alaska or some college in the states next fall, Hamalainen at present does not speak English. He speaks Swedish. Finnish and German, however, and expects to pick up the language quickly.

 Professor Theodore Ynetama, Di- rector of research for the Com mittee on Economic development, lacked up Ford by pointing out that prices generally were too high.
