MINING INDUSTRY PROBLEMS RELATED, MINING CONGRESS
Director of U. 5. Bureau Boyd Makes Straight
 Talk on Conditions

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 22.-tR The time has come for closer lia- ison between those who shape the national policy and those who furnish the sinews of war, James
 Boyd, director of the U. s. Bureau
 of Mines, told the American Con- gress yesterday.
 In an address prepared for de- livery Boyd warned. the critical state of world affairs has added innumerable problems to govern ment and the mining industry"
 NO longer can government ex- tamporize or deal with these prob- lems in an academic fashion. They are real. They are urgent" he said
 He told the mining men that the
 American mineral supply is run ming far below the level necessary to national safety.
 Charles F. Willis, chairman of the minerals advisory council, sub- committee on public lands, sutmit- ted proposals for improving the Governments land policy.
 Tt is rather a sad commentary on our free enterprise system that when a person discovers deposit which he can utilize or which, by his own inventive genius, may be converted into something impor- tant and marketable, he then has to seek a lease from the Govern ment, and is even forced to bid for what he has discovered" he stated

By JACK BELL

FEN ROUTE TO ALBUQUERQUE WITH DEWEY. Sept. 22.-tA-A formula for preventing a new world war was promised today hy Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, as he cut across the Southwest for a vital presiden- tial campaign speech at Albuquer- que tonight.
 The Republican presidential nom- inee planned in his third formal address to tell the country just how he proposes to. establish a just and lasting peace"
 Dewey gave an overflow audience in Denver's 4,000-seat auditorium last night preview of some of his ideas on foreign policy.
 He predicted that to the more than 100 serious problems he said face the U N. Assembly may be added action on the critical situa- ton in Berlin"
 Calling for strong and con sistent" foreign policy, the Re- publican presidential nominee de- clared:
 Tt is my firm belief that our country should never again seem to wobble in foreign affairs so that dictators may think us weak and irresolute. We must not only have the strength of freedom-we need leadership which knows how to use this power to build lasting peace. ''

Aerial Offensive from Alaska
 With New B-50 Bombers Can
 Be Concluded, Says Twining

PEARL HARBOR, Sept. 22.-tR- Military operations in arctic areas would be as tough for the Russians as for Americans, Lt Gen. Nathan F. Twining said today, adding:
 And we know that we can op- crate on land. sea and in the air"
 The Air Force General com manding Alaskan Armed Forces. told news conference that newly completed Eielson Field near Fair banks. is capable now of maintain ing an aerial offensive with the new B-50 bomber, which is Boe- ing's larger version of the wartime B-29.
 Twining, air commander in the Solomons during the war, express ed belief that American forces now can operate as we'll, if not better, than anyone else' under arctic conditions
 We do know that the Russians have the same problems as we have he said They put on their pants one leg at time the same as we do'
 Jet Fighters Tn Alaska
 Twining said the Air Forces have full group now of jet fighters about 75 proved F-80's-operating in Alaska. He added that group of long-range B-50's will undergo arctic training this winter
 Twining and Rear Adm. Alfred F. Montgomery, commander of the Alaskan Sea Frontier, are confer ring here with Admiral D. C.. Ramsey, Commander in Chief of the Pacific Fleet.
 The big problem of the Armed Forces in Alaska, said Twining, is housing and manpower for base building. Montgomery wryly ob- served that Russia ''as a dictator S3pn does vot have a paannower problem as does the American democracy
 Commander Workers
 The Russians can send con- struction workers where they need them said Montgomery. We can invite them.
 Asked about the size of Eielson Field 30 miles south of Fairbanks, Twining replied with smile: Just say it's a big one.'
 He said the United States has developed considerable number of Alaskan Air Fields from which B-29s can operate. Because of the weather and the terrain, Alaskan bases actually are like series of islands ard the supply problem is rough one"
 Supplies At Barrow
 Tn this connection, Montgomery said full years supply was put ashore at the Point Barrow oil de- velopment base by Navy amphib- ious force in only five days.
 This, added the Admiral, was more tonnage on Point Barrow's beach than went ashore at Okin- ava during the invasion phase there. !.
 Twining said American forces are scrupulously observing the lim- it's of approach to Russian terri tory, "and--so far as we know the Russians are doing the same" tin regard to American territory) Wed like to know more about whats going on in Russian terri tory Twining concluded. We are using all means we can to find out"
