Butler Wants To ICurtail Power Of Interior Dept.

((P) Special Washington Service)
 WASHINGTON, (P - Senator Butler R.-NebJ proposed Monday the enactment of law to probih- it the interior department from setting up Indian reservations in Alaska.
 Eskimos at Barrow voted down Saturday an offer of the depart ment to set up a 750 square mile reservation for them. The Natives rejected it, 231 to 29.
 Butler said in a statement that the result of the election 'iS high ly encouraging to those of us who have been fighting the expansion of the reservation system for h. dianS and other American native peoples"
 'It is evident that the natives in this region definitely do not want the reservation system es- tablished," Butler said. "In fact, the reservation system for Indi- ans has failed or is failing all over the country. Instead of advancing the Indians, it has segregated them from the main stream of American life and effectively hin- dered their progress toward a Continued on Page Three)

Form Committee
 To Press For Alaska Statehood

Nearly a hundred prominent Americans from all walks of life and all sections of the nation have banded together in a committee to obtain statehood for Alaska, it was announced today by Robert Atwood of Anchorage, chairman of the official Alaska Statehood Committee of the Territorial gov ernment.
 An enabling act to make state of Alaska is before Congress, where action in the House of Rep resentatives is expected within a matter of days. Alaska statehood has been recommended by every committee of Congress which has even investigated the question.
 The national committee which has dedicated itself to adding a 18th star to the flag brings to- gether such outstanding Ameri- cans as General Douglas MacAr- thur, Eleanor Roosevelt, Admiral Richard E. Byrd, Eric Johnston, John Gunther and Eddie Ricken- packer.
 Southerners, including J h n Nance Garner of Texas, Ellis Arn- all of Georgia, Wilson w. Wyatt of Kentucky, Holding Carter of Mississippi, Hamilton Holt of Flo rida, Howard w. Odum of North Carolina, Douglas Southall Free man of Virginia, and James c. Stahlman of Tennessee, have joined with other citizens from the North, the East and the West to promote the statehood cause of the Northern Territory.
 Prominent Republicans such as Arthur Capper, former Senator from Kansas, and Wallace. H. White, Jr., former Senator from Maine, have joined with Demo- cratS such as James Roosevelt and James A. Farley on this issue. Both the Republican and Demo- cratic platforms have endorsed statehood for Alaska. The inde- pendent strain in American poli- tics is represented by Robert M. Jr., former Senator from Wisconsin.
 Governors of nine States have placed their names on the com These are Earl Warren of Adlai E. Stevenson of Illinois, Val Peterson of Nebras- ka, Sidney s. McMath of Arkan- Sas, Alfred E. Driscoll of New Jersey, John w. Bonner of Mon tana, Thomas J. Mabry of New Mexico, c. Mennen Williams of and Roy J. Turner of Oklahoma.
 Membersof Congress, who will have to pass on the statehood leg islation, were deliberately left off the list of invitations when the committee was formed, but events have landed one Senator on it. He is Herbert H. Lehman of New

gion auxiliary, in a talk at the
auxiliary meeting here. She said
that lack of an adequate civil de-
Tense is n of the weakest spots
in u national defense and is in
viting air attack on American
cities.
Inc auxiliary unit took action
to place the support OF it's men,
bership and facilities behind local
civil defense preparations, pledg-
ing about cooperation in plans to
minimize the effects of bombing
attacks against the United States.
I'VE can expect any f~ull-scale
wal to begin with surprise bomb
ing of American industrial CEN
ters," said Mrs. Starkey, land our
country must be prepared to stand
the shock. Panic is d great danger.
People must know what to do, and
be trained and organized 20 do it,
or national paralysis which could
bring defeat might result.
Our community must be pre-
pared to care for large numbers
of homeless refugees who undoubt-
eddy would pour in seeking shelter,
food and safety in event of bomb
ing attacks. We would have a ire
mendous job to do and the full
cooperation of everyone would be
required. We could not hope to
carry it out successfully without
advance planning and training.
"We must all recognize the
in which we stand today.
Experts tell us that American pro-
ductive strength would be the
prime target in any future attack
and that we could not hope to keep
new war in far away places over
seas but must expect bombs to fall
on American soil. We must all get
busy and make civil defense a
reality before it is too late"

Good Landscaping
Needs Careful Planning
The well-landscaped yard is an
asset to any community. Likewise,
attractive farm yards develop beau
tiful rural communities. Good land
scaping should not just make a
show place but should be developed
as a living ire to be enjoyed.
Careful planning is important
If a good landscape job is to be
realized. Two or three areas r
usually considered in the beauti-
full yard: the public, service and
private area. The front yard serves
as the public area and is usually
left open to view. The service area
may comprise the urea where the
clothes lines, garage, drives and
walks and coal bin door area is
located.
The private or outdoor living
room area, often lacking in many
yards, is the area set aside for
family recreation. 1t may be
termed another room of the house.
Here may be found an outdoor
fireplace, picnic tables, pools, rock
gardens, a game area, and other
accessories. Generally this area is
suitably enclosed with shrubs and
trees on the boundaries to pro-
vide shade and privacy. 1t is found
towards the back or side area of
the home.
Some of the planted areas around
the house include the foundation
planting or planting around the
base of the house, border and
screen paintings and other plant
ings such as the lawn and trees.
To S an artists term, the
lawn serves as the canvas on
which we do the rest of the land
scape painting" That canvas
should be we'll made and durable.
The shrub and flower planting
around the foundation of the house
serves to tie the house into the
rest of the grounds. The trees and
shrubs around the yard are
to the corners and sides,
and serve to divide the different
yard areas, screen off different
views and provide settings for
flower beds. A few trees carefully
in the yard area will help
to provide shade where it is needed,
and they will also serve to frame
views both on and off the property.
Flowers play a part in the land
scape picture by adding the needed
colors to breux the monot-
ony of the green of other orna-
mental paintings. Flowers should
be placed in front of shrub borders
where they have a suitable setting.
Flowers appear misplaced if they
are set in beds in the middle of
Paintings of any kind scat
tered throughout the lawn area
are ~distracting and make moving
difficult.
Simplicity of design goes a long ,
way in the development of a beau I
;iful landscape effect. 1t is much
ike painting a picture. A good
has one primary center of
nterest-which in this case is the
home. All paintings should lead

.enter of interest. Distracting ele-
nents, like a misplaced flower
,ed, or a grotesque garden orna- ,
nent, will destroy the unity of

Dykes Facing Tremendous Rebuilding Task Athletics Manager
New Pilot Fails to Agree
With Mack About Brissie

Robinson, a pitcher from Savan-
nah, and George Moskovich, Buff
falo second baSeman."
Asked if bringing up Limmer
would make Ferris Fain available
as trading material, Dykes said
it is an angle to consider.
"Fain is a good first baseman
and we would have to get darn
good players in any deal involving
him. We don't want cash, we
want players"
The 54-year-old Dykes, who
wasn't quite years old when
the man he has succeeded helped
found and then become the first
and only manager the Athletics
ever knew, made one thing clear
as he discussed the team. 1t was:
Lou Brissie stays with the AS"
Dyes referred to the lefthanded
pitcher who finished the season in
Mack's managerial "doghouse."
Mack was on record as saying
Brissie had pitched his last game
for the AS after the hurler blew
a 80 lead in Cleveland one day.
In fact. Brissie pitched nothing
but batting practice for the last
few weeks of the 1850 season.
Dykes Praises Brissie.
"9rissie is a great pitcher"
Dykes said. He probably will re-
verse his record of this season.
Instead of winning 9 and losing
10, Lou will probably win 19 and
lose g. He is one of the nucleus Of
my pitching staff"
AS for the rest of the team,
Dykes likes his outf1eld of Elmer
Valo, Sam Chapman and Paul
Lehner. "Valo is always hustling:
Chapman knocked in "a runs and
I think handled more balls in
centerfield than any other out
fielder in the league; Lehner is q
good boy"
Dykes thinks Eddie Joost has
as least one more good year left
as shortstop and predicts young
Kermit Wahl will hit .280 and
play plenty of third base for the
AS in 1851.
"As for catching, Joe Upton
is lot better catcher than most
people think" Dykes said. He'll
improve and take care of our re-
ceiving.
We're open for deals, plenty of
them. But we're not giving any
thing away for nothing. The
other clubs will have to offer real
goods in return for anything we
deal them"
Dykes expressed himself as
overwhelmed at being named to
take over Mack's job.
Il never was so pleased in all
my life. I've always admired Mr..
Mack and I'll try to be as much q
credit to the game as he was,
although I know I can never even
approach such standing.
Believe me, I wouldn't take
