COnnies Snare Women With Organization

WASHINGTON CP)-The House n-American activities committee has described the Congress of American Women CCAW) as an "anti-American and pro-Soviet" snare for gullible women. This, retorted the organization, is "out- rageOusly unfair"
 A committee report was made public over the weekend. A CAV reply followed last night from New York.
 The committee said CAV is just another communist hoax specifically designed to ensnare Realistically minded but political Iy gullible Women," the chief pur- pose of which "is to act as part of a worldwide pressure mechanism among women in support of Soviet foreign and domestic policy"
 The CAV described itself as "an organization of women whose openly avoWed goal since its in ception has been the furtherance of world peace, and the better ment of the conditions of life for themselves and their children"
 In New York, Dr. Gene Welt fish. executive vice president, called the report nonsense, fan tastic" She said she is now hon. orary president after having 1 served three years as president. She is an anthropologist who lec- lures at Columbia University.

 tunate stampede that has been initiated at Fairbanks during the past week and all others will be well advised to follow their exam pie, MT. Steward declared, and thereby save themselves from what to the initiated appears to be inevitable disappointment, finan- cial loss and possible disaster.
 The physical hazards of encoun- tering the extreme sub-zero tenn peratures which are almost cer- 1 tain to obtain during the remain ! der of the season in the remote and unpopulated Fort Yukon re- zion are very great and should not be risked by the stranger to the country, MT. Stewart said.
 The futility of attempting to sink by hand prospect holes in the deep, water-filled alluVium adja- cent to the channel of river the size of the Yukon was also stress ed by MT. Stewart.
 The discovery by the owner of a fiSh-Wheel of a nugget of gold 1 the size of a pea imbedded in mud attached to the wheel when it was l being dismantled for the winter and the subsequent discovery on the surface of a very small amount of additional grains or flakes of gold in the vicinity may be ac- cepted as authentic as reported by n w Spaper correspondents and 1 others, but the natural occurrence of gold in the form of even small nuggets or grains of appreciable size at or very near the surface of l a stream channel that flows, as do the numerous channels of the Yu- kon at the locality in question, over a bed of very deep alluVlum requires to be established before the discovery may be reasonably accepted as a valid indication that gold deposit of any importance has been found.
 In such a setting, placed-gold, even in small grains, is to be found at or near bedrock beneath the verburden of muck, silt and gravel and not at the surface, MT. Stew art pointed out. The vast flat-lying alluVial basin known as the Yukon flats, about seven thousand five hundred, miles in area, near the center of which the mushroom camp that has been dubbed Fish wheel is situated, is filled with all luvium in the form of vegetal muck, silt and gravel to a depth as great as two hundred thirty seven feet as has been proven by a drill hole sunk at Fort Yukon.
 The potential occurrence of natural placer-gold deposit of any extent at or near the surface Tn such a setting is regarded as fan tastic by experienced placer min ing men, who regard the presence of the small amount of gold that has been reported found adjacent to the river channel at Fishwheel and vicinity as freak occurrence, possibly best explained by the ac- ton of floating ice in transporting

NEGRO YOUTH BID FOR RIGHTS
Score Truman Congess
For Civil Rights Failure In
First Session Of Congress

Dayton, Ohio-Strong resolutions
demanding the enactment of fed
eral civil rights legislation and
scoring the first session of the 6Ist
Congress for failure to enact such
legislation were adopted by the
Eleventh Annual Conference of the
National Association for the Ad-
vancement Of Colored People,
which meet here last week.
Both President Truman and the
Congress failed to pursue with
vigor, persistence, and strength"
the resolution states, "a course of
action which would have put into
law the comprehensive civil liber-
ties program which the President
promised to the people" The group
went on record in active support
of the National Civil Rights Mobi-
lization being sponsored by the N
AACP.
The delegates demanded that the
second session of the 8lst Con-
gress enact: Cd Strong criminal
punishment legislation against
members of lynch mobs. whether
they be private citizens or state
officers; (2)Civil sanctions against
communities which will fully OF
negligently permit such atrocitie,
to occur; CD Effective legislation
insuring the right of Negroes t,
vote without the imposition of
poll tax; t4 immediate enactmer
of a national FEPC law"
The conference also called fo
action to end discrimination i
education and in the armed force.
