The city council last night named Thursday. April 20, as the day on which voters will decide whether or not certain municipally-owned lots will be turned over to the Territory as site for a new Territorial Building.
 The new city ordinance, calling for the election and setting up con- ditions under which the transfer of the property will be made, was passed for the third and final time at a special meeting of the council Tuesday.
 Approved by the Territorial Board of Administration the ordinance calls for the outright granting of the Arctic Brotherhood Hall rrop- erty to the Territory and the sell ing of the City Hall property and the vacant lot adjoining it to the Territory for $60.000.
 The $60,000 purchase price will help absorb the cost of purchasing a site for new municipal build- ing, buying out the remaining time on lease on part of the A.B. Hall held by local cold storage locker firm, and raging the existing struc- lures.
 All voting at the special election will be done at the City Hall. Elec- ton officials have not yet been chosen.

COUNT E PREDICTED IN 50
 CENSUS TAXING

t ANCHORAGE, i..aska, March 1t -4R-Alaska's 1850 Census Director predicts that the 1850 count will show a population of l35,000 in the Territory.
 The forecast was made by Terri torial Rep. Clarence Heating, Di- rector of the Alaska Census.
 Most previous estimates have placed the likely count around l00,- 900. The Territory's enumeration will start April 1.
 Heating based his prediction on the 1940 census, alleged overslghts in it and the increases in main cities.
 Government reports and other data indicate the 1940 census was not a complete count" he declared.
 Tt credited Alaska with 72,524 in October, 1889, but great numbers of Alaskans were never counted"
 He said he knew of individual residents who were not counted and that he has discovered entire tribes of natives that the census enumera- tors missed.
 We can assume that the 1940 cen sus was about 85.000," he said.
 He estimated these gains for cities: 2l 1000 for Anchorage. 4.50O to 6,500 for Fairbanks, about 4,000 for Juneau, 5000 for Ketchikan, 5000 for Seward and 4,O0O for Palmer.
 He said the tight housing situa- tion in all the cities ''verifies the estimates"

U. 5. Security Relies
I0n Reserve Forces,
president Tells R0A

President Truman asserted to-
day that the Nations security
relies on strong armed services
reserve organizations.
In letter to Brig. Gen. E. A.
Evans. executive director Of the
Reserve Officers Association which
is sponsoring National Defense
Week May 1920, Mr.. Truman
declared:
"It is a tradition with the Ma
ton to depend in the main upon
our citizen soldiers, sailors and
airmen to provide the manpower
in assuring our national defense
and our freedoms.
Old Example Followed.
This administration has fol-
lowed the example of George
Washington and other great lead.
ers in emphasizing our reliance
upon strong civilian components
in all'of our armed services as op-
posed to large and expensive pro-
fessional forces"
The President added that re-
servists had indicated their will
ingness to assume their individual
responsibilities" and that the re-
serve training program, which he
called inadequate In the Army and
Air Force in 1948. was improving
each month"
The Defense Department Is
determined that reservists will be
available and ready if their serv-
ices are needed" he wrote.
Truman Praises ROA.
Mr.. Truman expressed apprecia-
ton to the association for spon-
soring National Defense Defense
Week and added that Il am sure
that patriotic citizens will give
widespread support and, naturally
the armed services will cooperate
wholeheartedly."
The President, who is an Army
reserve colonel, helped organize
one of the original chapters of
the association in Kansas City
after World War I. He still is a
member of the organization.
