 Marshal Nikelai Bulganin issued an order of the day commemorat- ing the Red Army's 3lst anniver- sary.

 But Germany didn't use the spray, and Russia probably would not for the same reason--it con- terminates the area for too long a period, in the opinion of Maj. James M. Graham, U. s. Army Engineer. :
 The two German scientists who formulated the spray were in Ber- lin when the Russians took over and more than likely were taken in hand by the Soviets, Graham says.

 Graham had charge ri disposing of the spray, named 1abun after the names of it's two inventors. He disclosed some of the details in Mountain View.
 Hidden stocks of Tabun-l25, 900 tons of it--were found by American intelligence officers in Bavarian caves. Engineers built huge fires in pits to destroy the liquid.
 Graham described Tabun as a nerve poison not unlike snake ven- am, in it's effect Only quicker. A spot of it the size of a dime drop ped on the skin would kill a man in two minutes unless wiped oil quickly.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-tR- Delegate Bartlett of Alaska said to- day representatives of Alaskan in- dustrjes are trying to delay con- site.ayion of s.'c bill to give the Territory statehtod.
 Representatives 0. industry op- posing statehood are reported to have asked for delay in considera- ton of the bill because it is not convenient for them to leave Juneau where the legislature is in session, 7 Bartlett said in a statement
 Tt was argued that the bill re- ported by the House Public Lands Committee last spring has not been publiciZed in Alaska.
 That is not in accord with the facts.
 All of the amendments were cov- cred in press dispatches.
 "If Congress waited until it was convenient for the last witness to appear, very little legislation would ever be enacted"
 Bartlett said he expected the ter ritoriss subcommittee of the House Public Lands> Committee to consid- CT the bill week after next.
 Tt is well recognized here," he said, that those seeking postpone ment are simply trying to employ delaying tactics"
 Bartlett said he wouldn't be sur prised to hear some opponents tt statehood argue Alaska should not come into the union until the world had arranged a pact to outlaw wal and thousand years set aside te see if it would work"
 He said those opponents have 2 financial stake in the Territory but are not willing for it to have state hood

 The bill also en b les School Boards to make contracts Witt school superintendents for terms ul to three years.
 Considering the unanimous final vote, there was a great deal of dis cussion over the one-page bill. Dr. James O. Ryan, Territorial Commissioner of Education, was called to the stand to make state- ment and answer questions regard ing the bill.
 Making clear that he spoke as an individual and not-for the Territor- ial Board of Education, pr. Ryan

HOUSE KILLS BILL TO BAR
 LEGISLATORS
By JIM HUTCHINSON

A hill to bar Alaska Legislators from Territorial boards and com missions tailed in the House today on reconsideration.
 The House passed it originally Monday by IA to 8 vote. The vote today was 12 for and II against, but l3 votes are needed to constitute House majority and one member was absent.
 Rep. Glen Franklin, Fourth Divis- ion Democrat. let the argument which defeated the bill today. He contended the number of public spirited and qualified persons for Territorial boards is limited, par ticularly in the case of the univer- sity Board of Regents. He said the Governor has had difficulty in finding satisfactory regent ap- pointees.
 Defeat of the bill came despite a new amendment to allow legisla- tors to serve out present Board terms.
 Statehood Memorial
 A statehood memorial to Presi- dent Truman and congressional leaders appeared in the House as another highlight. Introduced by Speaker Stanley McCutcheon, It asks for enactment of legislation at this session of Congress to pro- vide for admission of Alaska to statehood.
 It cited by national party plat form commitments on the issue and said it has long been the aspiration of the people of Alaska
 It said the statehood sentiment expressed in. the l946 referendum has continued to grow until the people now are virtually unanimous in their desire that Alaska shall speedily become a state.
 Another memorial introduced in i the House by Rep. Andrew Hope Sitka Democrat, asks the highway engineer and the board ot road commissioners to build a three-mile road between Yakutat and the fishing grounds on the Situck Riv- er It said the only link now IS by Libby, McNeil and Libby railroad for fishermen who agreed to sell their catch to the firm.
 Meeting Tonight
 The House has an overtime ses- sion scheduled for tonight In the debate over the banning of legislators from boards, and the banning of board members to elec- ton as legislators, tribute was paid particularly to Senator Andrew Ner- land, chairman of the Board Of Regents. and opposition was ex- pressed tc forcing him to relin- quish either position. Other legis- lators cited were Sen. Howard Lyng, member of the Publ.e Vel fare Board; Sen. Victor Rivers
