 We like our state and We are all very proud of it.
 Lately I have been kind of wor- ried because at school I have beer feading some old newspaper clip pings about Alaska becoming a state. Is it true?
 T don't mind at all, but please Sir, if Alaska must come into the Union, would you mind cutting il up into States? l ask this because Texas just has to remain the larg- est in the Union,
 The letter was referred to Inter ior Department. Miss Huval tWho lives at 436 North Ballard, Pampa) was little out of Texas character whsn she recognized that Alaska is larger but that is the fact.

NEW MOVE PLANNED
 WAR DEPT.
To Reduce Regular Army But Establish 'M-Day'
 Force, Trained Troops

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12. - War Department plans for reduction of almost 100000 in the size of the regular army and establishment Of an ''M-Day" force oi l,750,000 train ed troops were disclosed today by members of the House Armed Ser vices Committee.
 The plan depends on a universal training program to build up the National Guard and the organized reserves, Committee members said, so that within one year from M Day" the force could be expanded to 5,500,o00 men.
 Just how quickly the reduction in the regular army will be effect ed, they said, depends largely on international developments. But they pointed out that President Truman's budget message to Con- gress contemplates maintaining a standing army of 1,070,000 during the year beginning July l.
 The entire mobilization day set up, committee members said. is based on a three-point legislative program including universal train ing, merger of the Armed Forces, and coordinated scientific research and development.
 Details were divulged following meeting at the Pentagon yester- day attended by most members of the committee, Secretary of War Patterson, General Dwight D. Eis- enhower, and other top Army off cials.
 The 1,750,000 'M-Day" force would include 875O00 regulars, 680,- GOO National Guardsmen and 195,- GOO organized reserves, all ready to take the field on short notice. The rest of the 5,500,0O0 men expected to be on duty 12 months later would be draftees and former ser vice men recalled to duty

REPUBLICAN CHIEFS OPEN
 CAMPAIGN
Will Speak al Scores of Lincoln Day Dinners
 Throughout Land

WASHINGTON, Fetl 12-The Republican party re-dedicated it. self today to the principles of its first President, Abraham Lincoln, and sent it's orators far and wide to start beating the victory drums for 1948
 Scores of Lincoln Day dinners part of more than 600 being held over a period of ten days-were scheduled tonight in nearly all States except the South,
 Most of the party's potential Presidential candidates next year are on the speaking programs - Gov. Thomas E. Dewey at Albany; Senator Robert A. Taft at Charles ton, w. Va; Harold E. Stassen at New York City; Senator John w. Bricker at Toledo, and Gov Dwight H. Green at Springfield, Ill.
 Stassen planned to speak on a world economic policy, Taft and Bricker on domestic issues.
 There is talk that Bricker may announce soon his withdrawal from the l948 Presidential picture in favor of his fellow Ohioan, Taft.
 Republican National Chairman Carroll Reece, a former Tennessee Congressman who also has been proposed for the Presidential nomi- nation of his party, continued the Lincoln Day drive in Chicago last night, and will talk in St. Paul to- night.
 In his Chicago address, Reece declared the Days of Reckoning are arriving for the Democrats. He said this country in the last 15 years has "strayed far away from Lincolnian principles and added;
 we have seen the growth in Washington of an irresponsible and confused bureaucracy, many mem bers of which seem to be intent up- on suppressing, or at least disre- garding, the basic rights of our cit izens.
 More recently, we are beginning to uncover evidence that, in some parts at least, this bureaucracy was corrupt, as well as inefficient and extravagant.
 We may expect additional evil dence along that line during the coming months"

GROWING PAINS AFFLICT ALASKA
 SAYS G0LDSTEIN
Believes Government f Should Develop Power
 and Timber Resources

SEATTLE, Feb. 12.-Alaska is just like any youngster subject to humps, chicken pox, the meas les and every other illness that comes along" Charles Goldstein oi Juneau said today.
 Trouble is,' said the Alaska business man, it never grows up I went there with my father in '85 expecting something to happen. I'm still waiting
 We have vast water power re- sources, but they are running into tte ocean. We have vast timber resources, but they are rotting in the forests"
 Goldstein said he believed the Federal government should take immediate steps to develop power and timber resources and create other inducements to get capital to enter Alaska.
 He said the building of at least two large pulp and paper mills would give Alaska a good start toward growing up Tt is crime and impractical" he said, ito have a ship leaving Juneau for Seattle with Is tons of cargo when Alaska could he shipping out 5000 or 5000 tons of sorely needed paper a week
 Goldstein said it was wrong to criticize unduly the steamship com panies, railroads, Seattle interests and others for situation he be- lieves could be remedied only by creating industry in Alaska.

PLANE x
 MISSING,
 ( ABOARD
Coast Guard Graft Unre. ported in Rugged
 Country in Oregon

MEDFORD. Ore, Feb Estate Police and Forest Rangers today sought trace of missing Coast Guard plane in the rugged Tillar area north of here
 The plane with six men aboard reported to the CAA control tower here at 223 p m. yesterday that it would land in about 30 minutes. It was then over Till-r a small com- munity 40 miles west oi Crater Lake. Nothing further was heard from it,
 Low-hanging clouds shrouded much of this area today and a heavy rain throughout the night continuing into the morning, re- stricted air search.
 State Police Capt. Paul Parsons dispatched men, aided by the For est Service, to make house-to- house check to determine whether the plane, a PBY-5A, had beer heard or seen as it passed over the area enroute from Port Angeles Washington.
 The plane carried fuel for F hours when it tcok off at 9:42 a m., but Coast Guard headquarters at San Francisco reported fuel con sumption probably was heavier than usual because of strong head winds The CAA tower said the plane when it checked in did not report any difficulties The tower opera tor said flying conditions were not particularly bad, but that the plane was at a relatively low altitude for mountain country.

The W ashingto ion Merry Co., Round
By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON Nays big brass, nettled over President Truman's in- sistence that the U. s. land, sea and air forces be united under one head. may find that big oaks from little acorns grew and that their troubles stem back to an incident of 1940
 Harry Truman, then Senator Truman, was a member of joint Senate House group inspecting U. s. air bases, and travelling in an Army plane.
 On the schedule was stop at San Diego, Calf. where the Navy had a complete air base, including paved runways and fine landing facilities. Near by was an Army field, then being enlarged and it's landing strips torn up. To add to difficulties, a heavy rainfall had given the field the appearance of a lake.
 Truman's plane was supposed to land at the torn-up Army field. But, arriving over the Army base, the pilot decided to turn back and use the Navy field with it's clear and unflooded landing strips.
 That was when his troubles be- gan.
 Radioing his difficulties to the Navy field, the Army pilot got word from the Navy field officer that he was without authority to land any planes other than the Navy's
 Then followed about 20 minutes

Many Feel National De- fense Would Be Ham,
 strung by Proposals
By FRANCIS M. LIE MAY

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-Repub- licans driving for a S6,0O0, ,000,00t slash in President Truman's $37,500,- 000,000 budget were accused by two of their own leaders today of i'm periling the nations security and world peace.
 Proponents of the economy move insisted, however that this. is not the case
 Chairman Guerney (R-SD) of the Senate Armed Services Committee declared the cut voted 8 to by the Senate-H House Budget Subcom- mittee would lop Sl,750000,000 off the S1l, 200, 100000 MT. Truman ask ed for the Army and Navy.
 T cannot vote for anything that hamstrings national security" Guer- ney told reporters in announcing that he had abstained from the ballot The vote followed a hurried trip to Capitol Hill late yesterday by Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower tC plead against any impairment oi funds for the nations fighting for ces.
 Same Mistake
 Saying the committee action ap- peared to him to be one of the same mistakes we made after the First World War" Guerney added
 We just got through spending S300,000, 100000 to win the war ano it looks like we could spend a few dimes now to win the peace"
 Guerney's counterpart on the oth- CT side of the capitol, chairman Andrews tR-NY), of the House Armed Services Committee, also de nounced the budget slash, asserting to newsmen;
 T am sure the majority of Am ericans, realizing the thing we want most is peace, are willing to fore go a great decrease in taxation al this time to assure that peace"
 The issue goes to a vote before the full 102-member Budget Com mittee Friday in what may be one of the hottest fiscal battles in his tory.
 Senator O'Mahoney D-Wyo), q member of the Senate-H House group suggested that plans for the closed door session he revised to throw the meeting open ''so that the people can know what is going on.
 Play Fast and Loose
 Rep. Mahon (D-Tex), a member of the Subcommittee, contendec that some Republicans are playing fast and loose with national secur- ity in order to deliver on theii promises to cut taxes
 Rep. Taber (R-NY), chairman of the budgetary group, said we have no desire to hamstring the Army and Navy
 Cnalffndn BrlugeS tR-Nttl, O1 the Senate Appropriations Committee who offered the motion to cut $6,- 000,000,000 off the Presidents bud get, commented that there was 8 feeling of majority in the Sub committee that we are in no way affecting national defense
 Both Taber and Bridges disputed Guerney's estimate that the overal budget reduction would take $1 1,750,- 000,000 from the Army and Navy They declined, however, to an. nounce any breakdown on how the various departments would be cut
 Senators Barkley CD-Ky), ant George D-Ga), joined Guerney ir refusing to vote on the budget cut

HERTER JOINS WITH JACKSON 10 PUSH BILL
Maonuson Will Put Joini Measure in Senate
 Vote Next Week
By CHARLES D. WATKINS

WASHINGTON, Feb l2.-Rep- resentative Jackson tD-Wash) an- nounced today he and Rep. Herter (R-Mass), were introducing legis- lation 10 authorize the Maritime Commission to establish steamship service to Alaska through contracts with private ship operators.
 The commission has been oper- ating service to Alaska. with the steamship owners acting as it's agents, but it's authority expires on February 28
 The operators announced that if the lines were returned to them they would not operate them unless given an increase in rates. Jackson and Herter, members of the House Merchant Marine Com mittee, prepared their legislation after conferences with the owners and Maritime Commission experts. The same measure, Jackson said, is to he introduced in the Senate Friday by Senator Magnuson CD- Wash) and Majority Leader White (R-Maine), chairman ofthe Senate Commerce Committee
 Vote Next Week The House Committee will hold hearings on the measure tomorrow. Jackson said. under a plan for House vote next week.
 The legislation. joint congress- ional resolution, would authorize the commission to enter into con- tract with American citizens quail fled to provide the necessary ser vice to the Territory The Com mission could make available gov ernment owned vessels at nominal charter hire, with the government furnishing the marine insurance.
 The operators would he required to furnish such services as the Commission may direct to secure the most economical operation
 The measure provides that the cpsrators must apply income to the expenses of operation
 If there are profits the opera tors will be allowed an amount 1qual 10 10 percent of their invest ed capital before taxes, which Jackson said would amount to six percent after taxes. All profits above 10 percent would go to the Commission and for insurance costs.
 Provides Interim Service
 The measure will permit such op- eration until not later than June 30. 1948, to provide interim service until Congress can work out a per manent plan for steamship service service to the Territory.
 The resolution makes no mention of rates. Jackson said legislation on rates could not be enacted. as rate-fixing is a Commission duty. He said he expected there would be some adjustments" but added he did not know what the Commission planned.
 Alaskans have notified the Com mission that they will oppose any increase.
 Jackson said that under the agreement. if there is loss in oper- ating the service it will have to be shouldered by the operators, add ing there was a s4,50O,oOo loss to ! the government last year.
