JOHN NEWLAND S NEW MEMBER OF

Elmer said, Yeah. Who do ythink's going to write it if you don't?"
 We said, Well, let's just skip it."
 No" Elmer said. You've got to write it. Whenever new staff member arrives to work on The Empire, he has to announce him. self to the people of Juneau, so to speak"
 Elmer is Managing Editor. His word goes
 Still we were reluctant. Don't want to-" we said.
 Elmer coaxed Go ahead" he said. Its not hard"
 He filled his pipe and leaned back. He's been with the paper 30- odd years. He knows the business. Just say something like this; John H. Newland, 27, arrived from Seattle Monday to join the edi- torial staff of the paper
 Did you graduate from school down there? Well, say Newland is a graduate of the University of Washington school of journa- lism.
 And then tell where you've worked Something like this: On staff of San Francisco Chronicle for three months and publicity staff at Longacres race course near Seattle
 Elmer re-lit his pipe. T guess that's all. You could say you like rain, being from Seattle. And how about the war. Canadian Air Force? Well, put that down, too. Pilot ln Canadian Air Force, 1941 to '45,'
 Elmer took his pipe out of his mouth. "Youre married, aren't you?" he asked. Well, let the people know about that. Married week ago yesterday and hasn't seen his wife since Monday morn HE. A Jdl S~ rival Something like that
 Now tell them about your wife, " Elmer said Don't need to tell them how wonderful she is. They'll know you'd say that, being married for just a week. Tell them about her being a University of Washington graduate; a journalist who worked for the West Seattle Herald, a graduate student who went to Europe summer of 1948 to see the Marshall Plan in action, and at present waiting to come to Ju7 neau"
 Elmer said, That should about cover it."
 We agreed it was probably too much.

SECRET DOCUMENT

Lieut.. Gen. LaWtCn Collins was very insistent on clearing his desk when photographers swarmed in after his elevation to Army Chief of Staff They were curious about this caution and Collins grinnng- ly explained:
 Its because I got burnt once I was very embarrassed by some pictures made at my headquarters in the ETC when the Germans sur rendered. I was waiting for two big-shot kraut generals to be brought in and was writing a let ter to my wife. l had just writ ten her about the impending affair when the two krauts were brought in. I left the letter lying on my desk while the photographers took pictures, and I'll be alarmed if one of the pictures that was published didn't show clearly my letter ano what I had written to my wife,

dercover jockeying centers in Wash ington. Luckey has made a num- Der of hush-hush trips to the cap ital, and most of the other candi- dates, or their agents, have made treks. All filter a constant stream of rumors and tips eastward.
 Latest to reach Democratic na- tional headquarters is the follow ing:
 A secret conference recently took place between James Roosevelt and George McLain, top poobah of California old-age pension promo ters. Purpose of the meeting was to consider a Roosevelt McLaln ticket: the former for governor the latter for lieutenant governor Cement for the alliance would be McLains delivery" of his 250,00O pension followers and Roosevelt s public support of their pension plan, on which the state ballots in a special election this November.
 Red-hot kicker on this hot tale is-that one of the prime movers of this alleged deal is Arthur Sam ish, massive king" of California lobbyists.
 Note 1: California's population has increased so enormously in re- cent years that the state is cer- tain of a minimum of seven new Congressional seats in the l95C reapportionment. It now has 23.

Catholic" Displaced Persons law.
 Charges that this act is discrim- inatory are hokum," McCarran snapped. T worked with Senator Revercomb Q948 West Virginia Republican lame-duck) on this act when it was drafted, and l know that the charges are untrue"
 Sen. Matt Nicely, D., who defeat ed Revervomb, took up the chal- lenge.
 "Revercomb and I are both Pres byterians," he said. II had the strongest support of the Presby- erians because they considered this bill discriminatory. The Presby- tery of northern West Virginia, last summer. took the extraordinary ac- tion of depouncing the Revercomb- McCarran act as prejudiced and expressed their indignation at Rev. ercomb in no uncertain terms
 Did the Presbyterians explain why they considered it discrimina- tory demanded McCarran.
 They didn't have to explain be- cause the American press, includ- ing leading Republican papers, had explained the discrimine tory fea- lures in no uncertain terms. This unfair law was major issue in my campaign and I intend to see to it that it is changed"
 Sen. Scott Lucas, H., Democratic floor leader, broke in with con- ciliatory question.
 Pat, you have a bill on this subject" he said. What would you do If Howard Senator McGrath, D., R. I..) moves to discharge the committee and report out your own bill?"
 T will oppose it.
 "I can't get it out, Scott" broke in McGrath, unless Pat is willing to cooperate"
 Lucas made still another appeal to McCarran to allow action on the measure. He refused to make any concessions.
 What will you do if the Repub- leans take the initiative and move to discharge this committee?" ask ed Nicely
 I'll do plenty retorted McCar- ran. eff they start anything, I'll keep them here until Christmas. I will not stand for any showing around"
 That ended the meeting. Later Nicely told Vice President Barkley The wraps are off now: I am not going to stand for McCarran's bluff. I am going to do every thing in my power to get that bill out of his committee. I will work with the Republicans or anyone else to do that"

A good many millions of words have been spoken and printed about the merits of wage increases for workers But very have been said about the other side of the equation-how much the workman gives in return for his wage.
 As matter of fact, during most of the period that the greatest furore being raised for higher wages the productivity of the average worker was going down. More than employer commented usually to hmself-that he wouldn't mind paying more gave him decent return in work for their higher pay.

 The newest eruption of the colossus Americanus mania is the proposal to 500by y400foot monu- ent to the Sioux Indians in the Black Hills of South Dakota. disciple of the late Gutzon Borgluln IS pressing a plan to sculpt effigy of Chief Crazy Horse on Thunderhead Mountain, and he appears to have won local Chamber of Commerce backing on the theory that the project would attract tourists. Since the mountain is in the Harney National Forest, the matter has been taken up by the Department of Agriculture and as item pertaining to the Indians, by the Department of the Interior.
 Such grotesque manifestation of the billboard complex ought be stopped dead in it's tracks Despite the fact that the plan is privately financed, the Government has a responsibility to prevent the mar ring of national forests and this includes the carving up of mountainsides. Already Mount Rushmore, only few miles from Thunderhead, has been given over to sculpture That is enough statue of Crazy Horse would add nothing to the natural lure of the Black Hills If a real memorial to the Sioux is desired, can be achieved with considerably more simplicity and less garishness. Indeed, the best possible mem oria to the Indians is the protection of the areas of scenic beauty inherited from them against handmade dissertation
