SAN FRANCISCO, (Ho - Ma tionally prominent mining men yesterday stressed the vital need of a national mineral policy be- cause of approaching crisis" in the country's mineral situation.
 They addressed the mineral economics division of the Ameri- can institute of mining and metal lurgical engineers.
 Alan M Bateman of Yale uni versity said a mineral policy is necessary as a part of foreign policy to encourage foreign sup plies of strategic metals which this country needs. He is chair man of Yale's geology department.
 Otto Heres, Jr., of Salt Lake City, said such a policy is needed to strengthen domestic producers. He is vice president of the Com bined Metals Reduction company.
 "I think we have to face clear ly the fact that we are approach ing a crisis in our mineral situa- tion," Bateman sadi Tt is inevi- table that more and more the United States will have to depend upon foreign sources and miner alS.

Congress Dubious On Truman's
 Stability Act

WASHINGTON, R)-PreSident Truman's economic stability act of 1949"-to protect against "boom or bust"-got an uncertain recep- ton on Capitol Hill yesterday. There was no immediate show of enthusiasm.
 The imitation, formally intro duced, proposed standby powers for limited controls over prices and wages, allocations, and gov ernment authority to build indus trial plants-to deal with infla- tion or with damaging deflation as well.
 This is a part of MT. Truman's overall business-economic pro- gram, which includes a call for a S4 4.O00,000,000 tax increase.
 Republican opposition devel- oped promptly. Rep. Wolcott R.- Mich said "I'm against peacetime controls. They are not consistent with the American way"
 Rep. Albert Cole R.-Kas) was more vigorous. He said "This looks like the most sweeping peace time request for power in history. Swinging a club over private en- terpriSe is not the way to get pri- vate enterprise to produce"
 Chairman Spence D.-KyD of the House thanking committee in- troduced the administration econo-

Traffic Director George E.
Keneipp last night heard a citi-
zens' request not to put up more
stop signs, but to take them down
and it was music to his ears.
Mr.. Keniepp began hearing the
music when he approached the
speakers platform to address the
Arkansas Avenue Community Citi-
zens' Association in the Burdick
School, Thirteenth and Allison
streets NV. A mixed chorus
swelled forth with the plea:
"Turn on the green lights,
Turn of the FED lights,
Don't keep US standing at bay!
Take do1Dn the stop signs,
Put up 'moDe fast signs,
We're anxious to be on our Day!"
There was another chorus.
Then Mr.. Keniepp entered into
the spirit of the thing with a few
thoughts on promiscuous installa-
ton of stop signs and traffic
signals.
He pointed out that, at more
than 400 intersections. each Of

B. T. Elliott of Route 1, Old Fort,
and H. S. Holland, Route l, Marion,
have found it to be practical as we'll
as profitable to remove the undesir-
able trees from their woodland. Mr..
Elliott and Mr.. Holland have been
cutting the dead, diseased, broken
tops, and other undesirable trees into
pulpwood and fuelwood. Also, Mr..
Elliott has been cutting his dead
chestnut into chemical wood. These
men say by taking out this material,
it releases the younger trees. When
released they grow faster into valu-
able timber. In addition to this, ac-
cording to Mr. Elliott and Mr.. Hol-
land, it reduces the insect and fire
hazard to the woodland.

 Instead of the regular luncheon meeting next week, Kiwanians will entertain their wives and other guests at 2 o'clock dinner We'd nesday in the Baranof Gold Room.
 Only a short program is planned, in order that the evening be left free for holiday activities. How ever, that program is to be a punch one, according to Dr. John Mont gomery, who called his cast today for a rehearsal.
 Jack Sturtevant, today's program chairman, presented two fine colo' motion pictures in the General FL ectric series of scientific films House of Magic"
 Curves of Color" keyed to the Miracle of Spring." traced the in- crease of scientific knowledge about the spectrum of light from Sir Is. aac Newton's elementary experi ment to the present-day color an. alyser-a measurement machine which records color values in graph or "curves of color"

 NEW PRESIDENT AT. NOON NFFE MEETING.

In a Christmas decorated and oandle-lit setting, the Juneau chapter of the National Federation ot Federal Employees today held it's annual election and Christmas party.
 William Twenhofel of the US. Geological Survey was elected President of the organization. He will replace Milt Furness in that post.
 Olive Trower of the Alaska Ma tive Service was elected First Vice. President; Kate Smith, also of ANS, Second Vice-President; and Katherine Alexander, who is em- ployed in the Governors office, Third Vice-President.
 Incumbent Secretary Treasurer of the organization, George Haen of the Forest Service, was reelected tc that post.
 Chosen to the board of trustees of NFFE were Furness, Marvin Ripke of ANS, and Tom Petrich of the US. Customs office here.
 NFFE members at the meeting voted to support Delegate E. l.. (Boh) Bartlett in pushing a bill which would have their cost-of- living allowance included as basic compensation for purpose of de- ducting retirement funds.
 An alternative to this is a bill proposed which would exempt tht cost-of- living allowance from in come tax.
 NFFE members in voting to SUD- port the first measure said they considered exemption from taxes or ccst- of living allowance would con- stitute a special privilege which would be worth less in the long run than the added retirement benefits.
 A. w. Blackerby presided over the Christmas party which followed tht business meeting.
