promoted this opposition in the first place. At any event, it seems certain that it will be impossible at this late date to the passage of the necessary legislation to pave the way for timber development this year, and by next year it may be too late The extreme shortage of pulp demands that manufacturers find additional sources Bocke5 in Alaska they will invest their money elsewhere nnd Alaska again becomes the victim of unwise Washing ton administration and the selfish interest of one group of citizens.
 Back in 1944, after Harold Ickes had pro- noted this monkey business of aboriginal rights of Indians ventured to suggest that this would soon discourage pulp and paper mill development in Alaska. Secretary took exception to this dismssing it as an "old wives tale" in column written for the Washington Post taking the editor of this Alaska newspaper to task for his remarks
 In l946 last July, Secretary Krug stated in an interview published in the Pulp and Paper magazine that he wanted Federal Court decision at the earliest possible date to settle the question of Indian claims to Alaska timberlands.
 Last February, as we pointed out yesterday, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued decision which should have had great deal of bearing such claims But little has been said about this.
 Apparently a court for settling the question of the timber claims would have to be instituted by private company whose "perogatives" may be threat ened by the Indian claims But so far the door hasn't been opened crack for the pulp industry to gain even a tiny foothold from which they might launch test case.
 Things appear to be just muddled today as they were three years ago Ickes did a good job of messing things up

Significance of Some Recent Figures
CNew York Sum

tNew Iork Sum
 Although economics has been called the dismal science some authorities refuse call any kind of science. The human element is so strong in calcuia- tions of such things as production and sales of mer chandise that the whims and variations of mass psychology are considered influential But for that very reason any individual impression of business trends is likely to be deceptive A popular notion is that there isn't much money around as there was a year ago or six months ago. Another common impress sion promotes the feeling that goods moving slowly because supplies ample. But the concrete monthly record of conditions in this city this State is convincing than impressions. The Savings Bank As- socation of New York has reported that deposits on hand in savings banks in April reached S4760OOO00, which was higher than in March, and about 3664,- 900 900 than in April of last year That is one significant measure of available cash. Another popu- lar impression devoid of faacv may be corrected by the index of department store sales The Federal Reserve Bank of New York bases this index on the ve-year average of 1885, 1889 In April of this year index figured at 223, only two points under that for April of last year. In both years Easter shopping helped maintain April sales.

Two-fisted Senator Owen Brew ster of Maine smells a rat regard ing the Midwest oil shortage.
 Brewster, who is one of the kecrest probers in the Senate and inherited Harry Truman's old com mittee, has been conducting a thor ough investigation of the Arabian oil situation and suspects that the so-called oil shortage, which has prompted some oil companies to reinstate gasoline rationing, is pure ly a fake

 Working behind closed doors, an Armed Services Subcommittee patched together a bill that will require no less than 'one-third en- listed men to sit on military courts which try fellow CTS if the de- fendant requests it.
