kRUG DENIES
 CHARGES OF
 SEN. BUTLER
Says Interior Department Not Blocking Timber
 Development

WASHINGTON, March 6.-iR- Secretary of the Interior Krug and some memters of the Senate Inter- for Committee agreed late yester- day on a common purpose-the qulcX development of Alaska.
 Krug said that has been his ob- jective since he became head of the Interior Department.
 Senator Butler tR-Neb) who has been critical of Krug's Alaskan pol icy, promptly agreed that rapid growth of the Territory is also the committees aim.
 Senators Watkins (R-Utah) and Malone (R-Nev) shared Buffers op- inion.
 Krug testified against bills to can eel Alaskan Indian reservations es- abolished by former Secretary Ickes, forbid establishment of others and to transfer Alaskan duties of the Indian Bureau to the Territory.
 Charges Denied
 He also denied charges in a letter from Butler that his Department or it's employees are blocking the de- velopment of Alaskan timber re- sources.
 Krug told a subcommittee he had not found any persons in his De- partinent who had told Alaskan In dians they had right to sell timber they claimed under aboriginal rights in the Tongass National Forest.
 He said his Department had noth- ing to do with contract the In- clans made with the Development Corporation of New York to sell the firm millions of dollars worth of timber.
 He said the Indian had no right to sell the timber and anyone trying to cut it under the contract would he subject to prosecution by the Fcrest Service.
 Claim Of Indians
 Both Krug and Mastin White, Department Solicitor, said if the Government took land the Indians claim the Government should give them just compensation.
 Krug said he is certain his De- partment can settle the aboriginal rights question in Alaska.
 We can sit down with these h. dians," Krug said, and get these claims settled in year or two. We could give them either land or dol lars for their claims If dollars Con- gress will have to approve. We are only waiting for approval of Con gress to put the plan into effect.
 White said the Indians do not have a right to make contracts for sale of timber in the Tongass Ma tional Forest where the Forest Ser vice is trying to establish paper mills.
 He said Congress had decided in the Tongass National Forest bill that only the Agriculture Depart ment can sell that timber and the proceeds must be held in the Trea- sury until the claims of the Indians are decided.
 Rev. J. Earl Jackman, of the Board of National Missions of the Presby- terian Church, who has charge of Alaskan missions suggested the ln- dian Bureau be abolished over per iod of five or 10 years.
 He said the Indian are not ready for immediate transfer of the ln- dian Bureau duties to the Territory
