BRADLEY iS
 NOMINATED,
 HIGH POST

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-IR- President Truman today formally nominated Gen. Omar Bradley as Army Chief of Staff to succeed Gen. Dwight Eisenhower.
 He sent the nomination to the Senate which must approve it before Bradley can take the Army's top post.
 The White House did not specify the date on which Bradley will take over the duties. The nomination was made effective simply on the date of his being sworn in.
 There have been reports that Eisenhower wanted to leave about Feb. 15
 Now 54, Bradley has been Chlet of the Veterans Administration but left that post two months ago. Dur inc the war. he commanded the l2th Army Group in Europe.
 Bradley has been a longtime ad- vccate of universal military train ing and one of his jobs as Chief of Staff is expected to be that of selling this idea to Congress. It is among the legislation President Tru- man asked in his State-Of-The-Un- ion message.

STASSEN WILL. INVADE TAFT'S HOME STATE
(BY JACK BELLl

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.--R- The decision of Harold E, Stassen to take on Senator Robert A. Taft in the Ohioan's home State found Taft supporters ready today to force an even earlier test of sentiment for the Republican Presidential nomination.
 They disclosed plans to make an all-out race in Taft's behalf in the April l3 Nebraska free-for-all. That test comes three weeks ahead of the Ohio balloting which Stassen an nounced he will enter.
 Taft himself was silent on the Nebraska development, but he left no doubt that he welcomes the com petition on his own grounds where, he insists, Stassen has no chance for success"
 The former Minnesota Governor said in his weekend announcement that he has a high regard for Taft and would have preferred the test to come in some other state.
 But" Stassen added. The dif- ferences between us on both foreign and domestic policy represent the major issues within the Republican Party and before the country. It is important that the people have an opportunity to express their views upon these policies prior to the Na- tional Convention next June"
 In saying that Ohio appears to afford the only opportunity for such a test, Stassen apparently had in mind that just about everybody who amounts to anything in the COP Presidential contest is likely to find his name on the Nebraska preferential ballot

 LICE SIN C

WASHINGTON. Jan. 26.-tH- Legislation to place fish traps in Alaska under licensing system for Is years will be opposed at a joint House-Senate Committee hearing by residents of the Territory.
 Packing companies will support the legislation already approved by their representatives.
 We are going to insist that if the Committee does not kill the bill outright it conduct hearings in AL aska before taking final action, Delegate Bartlett tD-Alaska) told a reporter today.
 Bartlett said the Alaskans insist fish traps in the Territorial waters be abolished.
 The till was drawn by the Inter for Department after long negotia- tions with the fishing interests and salmon canners. It provides for a reduction in the number of fish traps at once. sale to the highest bidder of the traps relinquished by the canners and sharing of the licensing fees with the Territory.
 Representative of the big salmon packers on the West Coast have signified an intention to attend the hearing and testify. Five represen- tatives of Alaskan fishing interests are here to testify They are Stanley McCutcheon, Anchorage; A. A. Gwen, Jr., Kodiak; Lee Bettinger. Mayor of Kodiak; R. R. Warren, Anchorage. and c. c. Carlson, Cor dova
 The hearing will be conducted by Senator Magnuson D-Wash) ana Rep. Tollefson R-Wash) as repre- sentatives of the Senate Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee and the House Merchant Marine and Fisheries Committee
 While the fishermen are here itl is probable they will be asked their views on proposals that the fish, ing industry be represented in in- ternational negotiations by top flight department official.

DISCRIMINATION SHOWN

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26. ia1-Re- tention by the United States of con- trol over salmon fishing in Alaskan waters is a discrimination against Alaska, an Interior Department of ficial testified today before Con- gressional Committee.
 Mastin G. White, the Depart ments solicitor, said that the Or ganic Act of Hawaii gave control over fisheries in Hawaiian waters to that Territory but that just the opposite was provided in the Or ganic Act of Alaska.
 White testified at a hearing on an Interior Department bill propos- ing licensing system for fish traps in Alaskan waters.
 Senator Moore CR-Okla) Chair man of a Joint House-Senate Com mittee considering the bill. asked White if the difference in the Organ ic Acts Of the two Territories was not discrimination against Alaska. White replied it is and said he could not explain the discrimination unless it was because of the importance of salmon as a widely used food
 Philip D. Mcbride, Seattle, Chair man of the Board of the Pacific American Fisheries operating 56 trap sites in Alaskan waters, said his company has an investment of nearly S7,00o,O00 in that business.
 He said that like other companies Pacific American in recent years had faced a constant changing of regu- lations under former Secretary of the Interior Harold L. Ickes. Me- Bride said he and other industry re- presentatives finally agreed to the present bill as a compromise in hope of ending the procession of changes in regulations.

 On 1937 Kidnapping Case

SEATTLT, Jan 26.-tR- Griz- 2led, balding Roscoe Lee Hayton. who confessed after 96 hours Of almost incessant questioning to slaying wives No. and 3, faced new quizzings today for possible connection with the 1887 kidnap- murder of l0-year-old Charles Mattson
 The startling new turn in the investigation of the elderly matri- monial club Romeo was disclosed by County Det. Chief Adam Ly- skoski, who said that Hayton bears a resemblance to character sketch drawn of the kidnaper's face.
 Ransom of $2s,oo0 was asked of his parents, Dr. and Mrs. w. w. Mattson, after the boy was taken from his Tacoma home Dec. 27. 1886. The money was not paid and Is days later the hoy's badly beaten body was found in the woods six miles south of Everett.
 Lyskoski said he would confer today with Jack B. Wilcox, special agent in charge of the Seattle FBI office, on the similarity between Hayton and the sketch.
 During four days and nights Of almost constant questioning, the year-old retired merchant ad- mitted in signed confessions that he killed his second and third wives. and led officers to the shal- low forest graves.
