Truman Will Not Permit Raise In Price or Gold

WASHINGTON, (P)-President Truman said yesterday there will be no change in the value of gold as long as he is President
 The President replied with what he described as a categorical"No" when he was asked if anyone in the administration was giving con- sideration to raising the price of gold as a means of reducing the national debt.
 Any such action would have to take the form of a recommenda- ton to Congress.
 The answer to the question, MT. Truman asserted, is a categorical no. As long as he is President of the United States, he said, the value of gold is fixed.
 The $35 an ounce U. s. price for gold have been in effect since Jan uary, 1895.
 It was set when President Roosevelt "revalued' the paper dollar by lifting the governments

Truman Says No ''WhOIesaIe Cuts" For NOn-ScheduLes

ANCHORAGE, CP) - Amos F. Heacock, president of the Inde- pendent Air Carriers conference of America, caid Saturday he had a reIayed report of a promise by President Truman that there will be no wholesale cuts" in non schedule air service between Alas ka and the States.
 Heacock said the word came from his Seattle office. He said the office received it from Herb Hil- scher of the Alaska Development board who said he had been ad- vised of it in a wire from Cover nor Gruening. The governor was in Washington, Wheer he was re- ported to have spoken to the Pres ident about the nOn-schedule air service issue.
 At the same time HeacOck said he had wired to Governor Gruen- ing an offer on behalf of the Inde- pendent air carriers serving An chorage and Fairbanks to trans port mail to those places for a dol lar a year.
 Heacock called it a Hast ditch fight" for the non-schedule carri- CTS, and implied official discrim- ination in favor of the regular schedule air lines.
 He wired the governor that "non-scheduled carriers can not possibly continue to cope with in- creased harrassment and destruc- tive regulations of the Civil Aero

Thursday. November 10. l949 By The Associated Press

By The Associated Press
 The conservative government of Columbia has suspended all ses- sions of the Lberal-dominated Congress and imposed a nation wide state of siege.
 Censorship of press and radio were also ordered by conservative President Mariana Ospina Perez.
 The government contended it acted because of official informa- ton it has recevied in the past several days about grave disorders ] nseveraI parts of the country. Newspapers said hundreds had been killed.
 "Public order is endangered" it said.
 Elections are scheduled for Nov. 27. The conservatice presidential candidate is Laureano Gomez. Lib- eral leaders last night reiterated they would not recognize the re- suit of the election. They threat ened to push through a four-man provisional government to replace President Ospina.
 Troops cordoned off Colombia's parliament building and moved to strategic spots throughout the na- ton.

Trap Fishers Plead For Life At
 Seattle Hearings

SEATTLE, (P)-The salmon in dustry had it's inning at a Con- gressional hearing Wednesday in the lengthy controversy over pro- posed legislation to abolish Alas kan fish traps.
 Many of the witnesses, predom- inantly in opposition to the bill, described the traps as the Goal ance wheel of the industry"
 A. w. Brindle of Ketchikan de- scribed the measure, H. R. 1515, as "vicious legislation which threat ems our very life"
 He said traps balance the sup ply of fish in that cannery capa- city is limited and trap-caught fish can be held until seine fish are processed. Fish caught by seiners must be processed almost immediately, he contended,
 Both Brindle and Fred Gunder- son of Wrangell argued that traps promote "real, true conservation" in that they are not destructive of other fish.
 "All the stuff you hear about traps being great killers is a lot of poppycock," Gunderson asserted. He testified that traps seldom snare a halibut and only few founders.
 Elimination of traps would force independent trap operators out of business with heavy financial loss and would tend to monopolize the

 In a talk at Greenville, N. C., secretary of the army Gray placed the probable ultimate cost to this country of World War II at one trillion dollars, and added that the United States must stay strong to avoid future conflict.
 Secretary of Air Symington weighed the cost of the second world war in terms of men and re- sources, as well as dollars, and said i've must do everything in our power to prevent occurrences of those international disasters called World Wars"
 There were similar expressions from other leaders in government, the military and civic affairs.
 President Truman, who was due to address the national conference of Christians and Jews during the afternoon, led Americans in ob- servance of the holiday with the traditional Presidential tribute-a wreath on the Tomb of the Un- known Soldier at Arlington Ma tional cemetery.
