The Lemke Bill
(Anchorage News)

(Anchorage NeWs)
 The agricultural committee of the Anchorage Chamber of Commerce today made public an adverse report the so-called Lemke billa measure pending in Congress which if it passes would constitute the greatest land grab Alaska has ever known.
 The Lemke bill, sponsored by the left-wing Con- gressnlan from North Dakota by that name, would take timber lands of Southeast Alaska farm lands of Central Alaska lands of Western Alaska mineral lands of interior Alaska and reserve them for settle ment by war veterans and by the general public for an indefinite time.
 The Lemke bill is extremely generous with the lands it exappropriates from the Territory of Alaska It provides that applying under the provision may take less than 320 acres but at the same time ne cannot take more than 2,560
 The Chamber of Commerce report rightly con- demns this particular phase of the bill being out of all reason It points out that it is in the realm of mpossibity to cultivate properly use even the minimum amount of land under the bill let alone using 256O acres of Alaska wilds to advantage It IS not large enough for grazing lands nor is 1t large enough for logging operations in Southeast Alaska where due the size of the timber large equipment reo,Iirng major capitalization is required It takes 80 wears for timber to mature in Alaska the Champe points out therefore if logging operations couo he maintained on the maximum tract 1t would soon De loooed off and the owner would have to wait more than three-quarters ot century ioi lie ees " so" back on again.
 The Lemke bill has some good points, it must be granted but the mpractbility of the bill lar out weighs these attributes if any exist
 The Chamber of Commerce acted properly m con- den,nine the Lemke bill and in an item by item ex- ploraton have pointed to it's fallacles ana mcongr ties.
 One salient point has been overlooked in our opin- ion which considered in it's full meaning IS the most damaging thing about the entire measure
 If is this: The moment the Lenke bill passes It nuts in reserve huge tracts of land in Alaska reegat ing them to cold storage against the day application is made for their use.
 Thus it makes difference whether applicants rush it from all the United States and take up their land claims immediately, whether prospective settlers hold off for the next 100 years the land is still reserved the purpose established under the act ana is out of circulation for all time at best until the vciousness of such laws discovered and repealed

Greek Troops Storm
Rebel bastion Near
Albanian Frontier
Az the Asseeioted Press


ATHENS. Aug. 1.-THE Greek
Army stepped up its campaign
against Communicated suerrillas
today by storming the rebel
stronghold in the Vitsi triangle
near the Albanian and Yugoslav
borders.
Informed sources said Greek
troops seized four strategic heights
in the heavily fortified area where
1000 guerrillas are believed in
trenched.
The vitsi triangle is about go
miles north of the Grammos noun
tain area where o major Greek
Army offensive was launched last
week.
Commands, vino started NOV
ing last night, were reported to
have seized fortified heights of
Baro and Lessits. overlooking the
main road from Kastoria to PHO
rina. Heights at Glavata and
Polenata, which are east OF Baro,
also were reported captured.
Infantrymen were being rushed
to the heights to meet an antici-
pated violent guerrilla counter
attack.
The initial successes were re-
garded by military observers as
highly significant because the
vitsi triangle Is bristling with for
tilted positions defended by ma
chine guns. mortars, mine fields
and an estimated 100 artillery
pieces.
Army sources said the guerrillas
still would be able to escape into
neighboring Communist Albania.
but the opinion here was that the
guerrillas would try to make a
stand.
The Ministry Of War has labeled
fantastic" q charged by the on
cial radio Of Albania that Greek
government forces have invaded
Albanian soil.
The opening Of the vitsi front
gave the Greek army two major
theaters Of operations in their new
six-day old offensive. The Gram
mos mountain front now may be
relegated to a secondary place in
importance.
Informed sources said the total
guerrilla strength In Greece has
been cut to 1900, Of which $4,000
are in the Grammos and Vitsi
areas.
Greek planes hammered at the
guerrillas with rocket bombs and
machinegun fire. The national
army also Is pressing tanks into
the battle.
A usually reliable source here
told d reporter one entire Greek
army battalion (perhaps 900 mem
was wiped out by guerrillas on the
slopes Of Mount Tsarnon, where
lie had been caught in a minefield.
This information said the general
staff, in reporting casualties, had
divided the number of men In the
battalion into two day's reports.
m the past two days army
'communiques have reported 95
army soldiers killed and 538
wounded in the Grammos fighting,
and guerrilla losses Of 116 killed
and AZ captllred.

novel idea, but one which should be
widely approved, will give to the wives of
l7s married seniors at Lehigh University,
certificates of recognition at the COM
mepcement exercises of that institution
John A. Mere, a senior, who served in
World War ii, and is the father of a six
week-old daughter, expressed the idea
that his wife. Anne, and other veterans
wives should be honored for assisting
their husbands in completing their educa-
tions.
Accordingly, at the commencement of
the University, scheduled for June goth,
the wives will receive certificates, express
ing gratitude to them as loyal wives, who
with devotion and understanding, en-
eouraged" their husbands lin the success
ful completion" of the college course.
We think this recognition is well de-
served. The general comment from many
educators is that the veterans have made
excellent students, giving serious atten-
ton to their work and this would have
been impossible without the cooperation,
encouragement and sacrifice of their
wives.
