still be a pretty small state to population compared to Hawaii with 100000 people in two of it's cities But it might have a chance to support itself with the revenue from it's fisheries and forests
 The Territorys statehood committee meets next week and around that group of statehood committee members will fly back to Washington to present the statehood to Congress. In the mean time it might be good idea for the rest Of the AL askans to give thought to the future of our north country-as a Territory-as state

STATEHOOD QUESTION

With statehood for Alaska and Hawaii being con- sidered in rush force the issue through this session of Congress- it might be well to consider, also, this little matter of difference in the situations of Alaska and Hawaii
 The population of Hawaii is approximately 52500O and it's area is 6435 square miles.
 Alaska has an estimated population of 90000 and an area of 5S6,40O square miles That is a lot of territory.
 The verbal battle that waged long over whether Alaska or Hawaii should have statehood first to be a thing of the past.
 Now the idea is that Alaska, Democratic since 1882 should have statehood at the same time as Ha- waii traditionally Republican, that the party bal ance will not be changed in the Senate Two Republican Senators will be acquired from Hawaii two Democrats from Alaska.
 It has been settled in Congress that such trade is to be made by members of Congress who have been sold the idea that all Alaskans and presume, all Hawaiians crying for statehoodhow would it be to consider the previously proposed idea of dividing Alaska and give statehood to the more thcky popu- lated coastal area?

WOMAN Av!ATRIx STRIKES BACK AT
 SCANDAL M0NGERS

LONDON, Aug. 24.-lR- Mrs. Richarda Morrow-Tait struck out yesterday at those who whispered her round world flight was a round- -the-world fling with her handsome navigator.
 Writing under her own by-line in the Sunday Dispatch, the model turned-aviatrix said:
 T have a message for rumor- mongers, people with smutty minds, and sneaky ones who peer from behind curtains and whisper little scraps of gossip over teapots.
 ". I have heard how you accused me of running away from my husband and child and I know what you've said about my morals.
 But I don't really care what you think because people who know me, know how very dearly l love my husband, and people who have been trying to twist things are only judg- ing by their own standards, which are not mine"
 Mrs. Morrow-Tait set out to fly around the world in a single-engine plane in six weeks. A series of acci- dents and money trouble made the flight last year and a day
 She was accompanied by hand some Michael Townsend, 26, as navigator Referring to him, Mrs Morrow -Tait wrote:
 They are disappointed it didn't turn out to be what they thought a dirty weekend.
 You sec Michael and I were friends before we could walk. Our parents were friends, too, and we have grown up together just as good friends, certainly nothing more. Michael is very good naVl- gator, so he was the natural choice"
 In conclusion she warned rumor- mongers that they had thelr answer. Here I am rack with my husband-for always

Wasn't Alaska Paid For? Well, What About
 Those Lend-Lease Bills, Russia?
(Ketchikan Chronicle)

It may be that Russia is teaching her school children that Alaska was paid for, Seattle newspaper reported this week The Soviets may be claiming that all the S7,200,000 given them for sending some of their fleet to American ports to discourage French and British assistance to the south during the Civil War.
 We'll of course, there a few things the Rus sians owe us that they haven't paid for and we might take little soil from Siberia or the Kurile Isles and Sakhan in lieu of the proper number of rubes.
 The Bolsheviks repudiated their World War loans from America. They have taken over some countries that in did likewise They have failed to repay many of the ships and much of the cash they promised us on lend-ease commitments. And they refuse even to discuss these matters.
 And the price America paid for Alaska, two cents an acre. Russia could pay off all these obligations in land and still have enough left to lock up Joe Stalin and Molotov.

TIDELAND OIL

Sen. Joe O'Mahoney, D., Wyo., chairman of the Interior Affairs committee, has thrown a monkey wrench into the drive to steam roller through a so-called "com- promise" on the tideland oil issue.
 He was supposed to sponsor compromise" legislation in the Senate, but after examining the bills agreed on at secret conferen- ces with California, Texas and Louisiana officials, O'Mahoney re- fused to have anything to do with them.
 Hearings on the measures are scheduled to open today before a House Judiciary subcommittee, headed by Rep. Francis E. Walter, D., Pa.
 One of the measures is an out and-out grab. It would give the states the bulk of these vast oil reserves that the Supreme Court ruled belonged to the Federal Gov ernment. The other measure gives the Government a better break. It would divide the proceeds 50-50.
 Says O'Mahoney, T don't con- slider these bills satisfactory. Early this year, I introduced bill that would provide Federal control over the management Of tideland oil. l have not changed my position on that bill"
 The chances of legislation on this issue are remote at this session.
