HIGH COURT
 NOMINEE TO
 BE: QUERlED Q D

WASHINGTON, Sept. 27-lR- The Senate Judiciary Committee voted 5 to today to ask Judge Sherman Minton to come before the group for private questioning on his nomination to the Supreme Court.
 Acting Chairman Kilgore O. WVa) told reporters that Senator Ferguson (R-Mich) moved to re- quest the appearance of Minton. The motion was seconded by an- other Republican, Senator Donnell of Missouri.
 President Truman nominated Minton to succeed the late Justice Wiley Rutledge on the nations highest tribunal.
 Mintoh, 59. is a judge of the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals, Chicago. In 1887, as a Senator from Indiana, he was an active fighter for the late President Roosevelt's s unsuccessful proposal to add an additional Justice to the court for each Justice over age 70 who. did not retire.
 Foes of the plan called it an at tempt to pack" a court which had ruled against much administration legislation.
 Ferguson told a reporter he wants to learn Minton's present views on President Roosevelt's 1887 proposal.
 T am told that Judge Minton may have changed his views on that question:" Ferguson said. T want to find out whether he feels that a Supreme Court member should be a judge or politician"
 Ferguson also said he has heard that Minton, while Senator from Indiana, once said that you can't eat the Constitution. He said he wants to ask him about that.

R0TARIANS HEAR ABOUT TEACHER'5
 STAY IN NORWAY

When Miss Margaret Maland re- turned to Juneau to resume teach ing the eighth grade this fall, il
 was after ten months with feet cold in a land where many people don't care to travel.
 Miss Maland told Juneau Rotary Club members of her stay in North ern Norway during the Rotary meeting this noon in the Baranoi hotel.
 She told of having cold feet for ten months-and not because the fuel was rationed.
 "They didn't ration fuel in the country she said. Tt was just that they wore warmer clothes than ! I did and could stand the lack of
 heat
 Her immediate reacuon to the temperature of the school, at which she taught a private class in the English language, was to send home for more warm clothes-"especially woolen stockings
 She told of the town where she taught-Mo Rama, near the Arctic i Circle-and the inhabitants who 1 had never Eeen more than ter
 miles from it. She gave an example Miss Malands mother had de- cided at the age of 21 to go to America-to the New World. Her aunt stayed in Mo Rama. When Miss Midland visited her during her stay in Norway, she found her aunt woman of 75 years of age who had never been to the little city 40 miles away
 She hadn't bothered to travel be- cause it didn't interest her, she told Miss Maland.

 Scores of automobiles containing p,ckets cruised leisurely on narrow winding roads skirting the mines but made no reported efforts to interfere. Squads of state police trailed them and occasionally brought them to a halt for in- spection.
 NO END IN SIGHT
 Mines being reopened are To- cated north of Pittsburgh Most of them are strip workings in which steam shovels dig coal from surface veins. Others are underground operations.

WAFER POLLUTION BOARD MEETING;
 HEARS EVIDENCE

The question of allowing the pro- posed pulp and paper mill at Ketchikan to use the sulphite pro cess was posed before the first meeting today of the Water Pollu- ton Board in the Federal. building.
 The six-person board, composed of board of health members, was formed by the last territorial legis- lature to administer the Alaska Water Pollution Act, passed to safeguard Alaskan waters from pol lution and establish standards of water purity which affect public health. fish and wildlife, recreation and industrial development.
 Henry w. Berger of Petersburg, who said he was interested in the processing of crabs there, and who described himself as a chemist and engineer employed nine years by Washington state. was violently op- posed to introduction of the sul- phite process.
 He said that 5000 tons of liquor waste came from the processing of 1000 tons of logs under the sul- phite process, and that in a short time salmon would be destroyed or driven away from any area where currents are not strong.
 "The sulphite process IS crlm- inal. and should not be permitted, he told the board
 He recommended allowing soda, sulphate or ground wood methods. as waste in each case is burned and does not pollute surrounding streams and tidewater.
 HeintzIeman Testifies
 Contradictory testimony was of fered the board by Frank Hentzle- man, Regional Forester for Alaska. He said the sulphite process could be used in Southeast Alaska with out harming the salmon runs, but said he believed the proposed S30,- 100000 mill would use a new pro cess. using magnesium oxide.
 The new process was developed in Longview, Wash, by the Weyer- hauser Timber Company, he said, and all waste is burned as fuel to furnish power with this method.
 ''The sulphite process can be used if precautions are taken he pointed out, and not used the year around in secluded areas. Sul- phite plants have no difficulties in open seaways."
 He said there was strong tide in Tongass Narrows, the point where the plant is planned, but ii it did not prove enough, the plant could be forced to take its waste to deep water
 He said his department would not permit the sitting of streams by logging, and if such thing hap pens, logging would be forbidden in the affected area.
 Gilmore Premises
 Peter F. Gilmore of the Alaska Salmon Industry promised the in dustry's utmost cooperation" in preventing waste from canneries to pollute waters. He said most of the waste now is made into meal and oil, with some salmon skins being tanned for shoes and purses. He volunteered to obtain information on pollution from the University of Washington.
 The board, recessing at noon, was to meet again this afternoon to hear other interested parties. Mem bers are Gov Ernest Gruening, chairman; Mrs. Katherine Kehoe, Nome; George Preston, Fairbanks; Dr. Dwight Cramer, Ketchikan; and the Rev. R. Roland Arm c+ro,,os ApphoraUe

 The story quoted Balchen fur ther:
 "The Tenth Rescue Squadron al- ways is prepared to fly anywhere, any time, as pert of it's regular business. We could have landed on the fringes of the Iron Curtain as easily as we did in Gardemoen."
 Gardemoen is the airport for heavy planes. about an hours drive from Oslo.
