OBJECTIONS BY INDIANS
 RESPONSIBLE
Territory Stands 10 Lose Five S30,000, 1000
 Paper Mills

! WASHINGTON, July 1s. R,-
 Alaskas potential multi-million dol
 lar pulp paper industry faced today,
 what Delegate Bartlett has termed growing Senate opposition Bartlett said yesterday large news print companies are prepared to erect five $3o,o00.o0O paper mills n
 the Territory if the Senate passes House-approved measure authoriz-
 ing the sale of Tongass National Forest pulp timber.
 In Seattle, it was announced Fri->
 day by E. L. Skeel. President of the Chamber of Commerce, that sixth , 15,000.000 mill will be built in the Tongass forest near Ketchikan by <; Bellingham, Wash, concern if the bill is passed by Congress.
 The Bellingham company already
 has made extensive surveys, Skeel said.
 1 But, Bartlett declared, Senate op-
 position is mounting rather than
 diminishing and the newsprint con- cerns have said they will cancel negotiations unless the legislation
 is approved.
 i With the outcome in the balance, two prominent Ketchikan business men were enroute to Washington today to lend their support to the , bill, which was passed over twice in the Senate this week On objection of individual Senators. Robert L. Jernberg, President of | the Ketchikan Chamber of Con- merce, and William Bates, President of the Ketchikan Miners and Mer- chants Bank. conferred with Seattle
 civic leaders on their way to the
 national capital to urge passage of i the measure.
 i Attorney Norman Banfield, of Ju- neau. has also arrived here to put ! up fight for passage by the Senate ! of the important measure which means so much for Alaskas devel- opment.
 Bartlett said objections by Alas kan Indian leaders had impeded the bills progress in the Senate and made it impossible for him to frame compromise with the help of the Interior and Agricultural depart
 ments.
 He said he would continue to
 press for passage of the measure as
 approved by the House, with pro- vision that funds received from sale of the timber be held in the Treas ury until claims of the Indians to
 10 per cent have been settled
 Bartlett added that he had been
 told by Senators Cain (R.-Wash.) and Magnuson CD.-Wash.) it had been agreed by Senator Taft tR.-
 Ohio) the bill should be given priority for consideration before Congress adjournS.

OMNIBUS BILL PASSED WITH
 v0I(E VOTE
By ALEX H. SINGLETON

WASHINGTON, July 19. = R- Spurred by alarm over strife m Greece and a widening split be- tween Russia and the Western Pow CTS, the House showed along to the Senate today a $1,6O3, ,199, ,094 appro- priations measure carrying $l,353,- 900 to finance this nations foreign policy.
 The House passage came last night by voice vote in just an hours time-perhaps peacetime record for a measure of its magnitude and international implication amid cries for halting all aid to countries under Russian domination.
 Assurance that such ban is in tended came from Chairman Taber (R.-N.Y.) of the House Appropria- tions Committee. He told the House that aid will be denied to countries ideologically and economically as sociated with the Soviet Union "un- less they turn over new leaf and show that they are willing to CO., operate with nations which believe in freedom"
 Consideration of the omnibus aid measure came as Chairman Eaton R.-N.J.) of the House Foreign Af- fairs Committee, said that i've are in sight of a shooting war at this minute" in Greece.

'BANFIELDGET5
 INSTRUCTIONS FROM COUNCIL
Strongly Worded Teie- gram Sent yDepudi-
 dfed as Representative

Juneaus City Council threw it's 1 weight last night into the fight to have Congress approve at this ses- sion legislation to settle Indian ab- original claims to lands in Tongass National Forest and clear the way for development of paper and pulp industry.
 The members unanimously ap- proved a strongly worded telegram to Norman c. Banfield, local att torney, who is already representing the Juneau Chamber of Commerce and other nearby communities in Washington for the same purpose Besides stating the position talk en by the City of Juneau. the telegram also makes clear that
 James Curry perpetrated definite falsehood in stating for the Con
 gressional Record that he repre- sents the City of Juneau" among various other Southeast Alaska !. towns and communities. City Attorney Howard Stabler , commented that he himself is at- , torney for Wrangell and Skagway; and H. L. Faulkner, of Faulkner and Banfield, states that his firm rep Iesents Haines and Petersburg.
 The wire sent by the City Coun- oil last night is similar in word- ing to one also dispatched yester- day by the City of Douglas. Ad- dressed to Norman c. Banfield, Washington Hotel, Washington, D. C., the telegram stated in part: You are requested to represent the City of Juneau in every effort to expedite Senate Joint Resolution 118 to settle Indian aboriginal claims to all lands in Tongass Na- tional Forest ..
 We feel immediate action nec- essary this session of Congress for benefit not only of white people in Alaska but all Indians. This telegram being sent you by author ity Juneau City Council whose members cannot understand how such fantastic claims could have assumed importance to throttle all development of forests ip Alaska except through Congressional ac- tion"
 Added by suggestion of Council members when the wire was read at last nights session was the state ment: James Curry has no legal status as representative of City of Juneau"
 The telegram was signed by May or Waino E. Hendrickson, City of Juneau.

BLAZE IS 25 MILES
 FROM PORT
Flames Reported Still Rag. ing Uneheeked-Kenai
 Village Now Safe

SEWARD, Alaska, July 19.-tR- Sill raging unchecked, the gigantic Kenai Peninsula forest fire had moved today within 25 miles of Seward, and Forestry men were reported concerned 1t might leap a four mile stretch of the upper Renal River and sweep through heavy timber toward this port city
 Fred Rinaldi, injured fire fighter brought here by plane yesterday said that if the fire spans the river it would be almost impossible to check it's spread southward."
 Peril to the entire west end of the Peninsula from Tustomena Lake to Homer also is threatened if the Kasilof River barrier is preached.
 Dayton Gilliland, who flew Rinal- di from the fire lines, estimated the western front of the blaze is 50 miles long and is moving stead- fly toward the Kasilof River.
 Rinaldi, who suffered fractured pelvis when a boulder rolled down upon hinl. said men fighting the scorching flames spray one another with water to help withstand the terrific heat.
 The Army reported in Anchorage today that the battle to save the village of Kenai on the north shore of the peninsula apparently has been successful. No appreciable gains by the fire have been made in the last 48 hours due to con- stantly shifting winds, giving 85 Army Engineers time to carve a 1912 mile long fire break around the settlement.
 No backfires will be started near Kenai unless the threat to the town is renewed.

 But the Congressman from Geor- gia still probably tops the nepotism list in the nations Capital. Here are some of the relatives receiving salaries at the expense of the tax payer through the benefit of Cooler" Cox:
 Lamar P. Cox, son, runs his fa- thers office. Salary-$7, ,022.40.
 Mrs. Rosa Robinson, sister, is listed as a clerk in the Congress mans office, though she doesn't come near Washington. Her checks are mailed to her at Camilla, Ga., the Cox family's home town. Sal ary-$3, ,185 Is.
 Mrs. Jim Lou Cox Hoggard, sis ter, Postmistress at Camilla, Go. Salary-$3,60

 Each of the big four-engine trans ports has been specially converted for the long overwater hop with larger galleys and baggage space.

TAX ISSUE
 I5 TOSSED
 TO PUBLIC
Failure of Senate 10 Over. ride Veto Makes for
 Campaign Material
By EDWIN B. PARKINSON

WASHINGTON, July 18.-tR- Failure of the Senate to override President Truman's veto of the COP tax-cutting bill tossed the is sue into the 1948 political cam paign today. Both sides expressed willingness to let the voters decide who was right.
 Prospects for tax reductions at this session of Congress died last night when packers of the bill mar shaled only 57 Senate votes against 36 supporters of the President = five short of the necessary two- thirds majority.
 Earlier the House had voted to override with 27 votes to spare, 299 to 108.
 I'm not unhappy Senator Milli- kin (R-Colo), floor manager for the bill, told reporters. There are 49,00000O taxpayers who would have had some relief except for two vetoes by a Democratic President and administration"
 House Majority Leader Halleck said tax relief apparently must wait until the country elects Republi- can President next year who will cooperate with a Republican Con- gress"
 Rep Rayburn of Texas, the House Democratic leader, already had ac- cepted the challenge. If the Re- publicans want to throw this kind of tax bill into the campaign" he said, well welcome the issue
