Forest Service Retarding Alaska

WASHINGTON (R)-Rep. Lem ke R.-N. D. accused the forest service today of retarding Alas ka's development.
 The government agency, he said, is offering 50 to 85-year leases on large tracts of Alaska timber to encourage establishment of paper mills in the Territory.
 The action Of the forest SerV- ice" he told reporter, lis block ing out efforts to homestead Alas ka under my bill. It is offering these large tracts and providing that onyl few trees be left to re- seed themselves after the tracts are denuded to obtain pulp wood.
 "The forest service plan would not leave enough land to encour- age the needed number of veter- ans to go to Alaska"
 Under a bill Lemke has intro duced in Congress, veterans could obtain from 320 to 2,560 acres each in Alaska. Each homestead would be large enough to sustain a family of seven. On forest home steads, the veterans would be re- Cuired to cut timber on a sustain ed yield basis to perpetuate the forest

 Like secretary of the army Roy all, who said much the same thing in an open session of the commit tee yesterday, Symin9ton said the civilian defense chief never will be able to ride herd on the quar- reling army, navy and air force unless he is given much greater power.
 Such authority. he said, could save billions annually"
 Just as Royall did. Symington urged dropping the civilian heads of the army, navy and air force from their present ranks to the position Of undersccretarieS.
 A now set up the joint chiefs must make decisions by unani- nous vote. Royall called that an "absurdity" and Symington's tes- timony went further.
 One member of the joint chiefs of Staff,' the air secretary said, can gut the decisions of the other tWO.'

 For one thing, German ship building will be removed from the prohibited list. It will be permit ted on a restricted basis.
 Some new industries will be added to the present prohibited list.
 Royall said Germany will wei come the decision to retain all or part of the l59 plants previously scheduled to be knocked down and shipped to allied countries. But he indicated he anticipated the Germans will be less pleased with the new prohibited list.
 A state department announce ment said the amount of equip ment formerly scheduled for re- mOval but now to be left there varies among the l59 plants from single piece of equipment in a plant to the entire equipment of an operating factory"
 The equipment which will be retained in Germany is located in 32 plants in the steel industry. 88 metal working plants, 32 chemical plants and seven plants .n he non-ferrous metal industries" Inc announcement said

 One regret I have IS that the Alaska Dcvelopmen, Board was trimmed to $8O,O0O for the bien- nium," Senator Lyng said. As au- thor of the original bill in 1945 that established the Development Board, feel that the Alaska De- velOpment Board could do a great job for the growth of the Terri tory if it had the chance" the Sen ator stated.
 All in all, I feel that the 18th Territorial Legislature, guided by Democratic principles, succeeded in doing a most constructive job for Alaska Senator Lyng sum- marked.

18th Legislature Most Constructive Says Senator Lyng

The 18th Territorial Legislature recently concluded was the most constructive legislature in my l2 years of experience, was the state ment made by Senator Howard Lyng of Nome, and Democratic National Committeeman for Alas ka.
 As result of the forward look ing program enacted by the 18th Legislature, we can definitely state that the Territorial house is now in order" said Senator Lyng. Although l personally feel that the tax measures were a bit stronger than necessary. l believe that we may have surplus in the treasury for the biennium of about 1,5OO,OOO.
 The 18th Legislature definite ly made up for the sins of the de- plorable 1947 session and turned out a record that will challenge future legislatures, Lyng declar- ed.
 The Second Division Senator pointed to the appropriation of $2,5OO,OOO for new construction in school houses and the $500 raise given all teachers.
 increasing the bounty on wolves to $50. coyotes to S25, seals to $6. and eagles to g were for the protection of game and fish, ' Lyng pointed out. The new Ter ritorial Fisheries COmmiss on ], an excellent innovation. Ii will gain experience and when statehood ! comes, it will be ready to take over the management of our aqua . tic resources"
 Tn the field of health Lyng stat ed, We paid up all back bills left by the 1947 session. We allotted S650,OO0 for tuberculosis. We passed many provisions to protect the public health.
 "Under Hor~ing the S250,0OO re- volvin9 fund passc. by the l9,h session will enable the federal government to make available $l5,O0O,00O fon housing in Aias:a.
 "Far-rCaching legislation on h. bOr was an OutStanding C.ntri5G- ton by the 18th session" said Lyng. The wage collection fea- ture, new child labor act, equal pay for equal work arc stops ahead"
 Lyng pointed out that munich palities have been greatly strength ened by new legislation.
 Under social security, pensions were raised to $50 per person, de- pendent children to $50 per month for the first child, S25 for the sec ond and S20 for additional chil- dren. Relief for Restitution was in creased $3O0,000 and additional dependency allowances under the unemployment compensation act were set at 20fo of the weekly benefits.
 A long-overdue retirement syS- tenn for Territorial employees was enacted and municipalities given the option to join the plan.
 The basic tax laws speak for themselves, Senator Lyng declar- ed. "The 18th Legislature put the Territorial house in order"

make them bring you the things you want and
can't afford
After my first success. couldn't wait to
try barter again. My next chance came when
we decided Carol. our two-and a-half-year-
old, should 60 to nursery school, something
our budget didn't have room for. We were
convinced that nursery school gives young
ster good start in life, and we decided that
our children shouldn't be cheated of this
experience just because we didn't have the
cash to pay for it.
The school we wanted was run by a
Mrs. Matthews. One day got a friend to
introduce me to her. and with some hesi-
tation, / told her what | had i'm mind
Like everyone else who lived some distance
from town, we had Car. and offered to use
it to call for group of her toddlers twice a
day. would drive them to school in the
morning and back to their homes at noon in
exchange for Carols tuition.
Everybody Was Happy
Mrs. MATTHEWS liked the idea So twice
day TAXED the children to and from school
and don't know who was happiest about the
arrangement - Carol, myself, the mothers or
Mrs. Matthew'S
Time was when didn't think there was a
substitute for folding money. But today l
put that idea aside and go after what want,
whether it's imported perfume, set of china
or course in writing. Recently got myself
a very good course at large university in
exchange for handling mail survey.

we settled in Greenwich Village In some ways
it's like small town within large city. And,
as I>told Bill later, Il certainly was wrong
about not being able to barter in New York"
In our neighborhood, there are many crafts
mems shops. Colorful hand-blocked fabrics,
enamelwork and unusual copper -and-silver
jewelry are made and sold just block away.
Like most women, love fine jewelry - not
necessarily the platinum and diamond vari-
ETY., but highly individual pieces to go with
that basic black dress.
l approached the silversmith whose
work l most admired and offered to do

how publicity would help him. and my argu-
