CARELESS of grade, having two de-

Gruening Used ANS 10
Influence Eskimo Votes

WASHINGTON, Aug. "a - Up =
Senator Butler tR-Neb) accused
Gov. Ernest Gruening of Alaska
yesterday OF using Federal agency
to influence votes among the Es-
kimos.
In a prepared speech, Butler said
the governor wrote a letter to an
Alaska Native Service teacher in
944 supporting a candidate for
delegate to Congress.
Again in 1916, Butler said, the
governor wrote another native SER
vice teacher regarding his object
ions to Frank Whaley, a candidate
FOR the Alaska Senate.
The first letter, he said, was
addressed to Mrs. Grace Kohler,
formerly teacher at Hope. Alaska.
The second he said. was sent to
C. Heurlin. an art teacher at Bar
row, Alaska.
1T is plainly fact" Butler said,
that the governor of Alaska hold
ing an appointive Federal job. not
an elective one. has resorted for
electicneering purposes Federal
agency responsible for the spending
of millions Of dollars in tax funds
among Alaska natives each year.
This is a use of the resources of
the Federal government for pol
itical purposes. 1t can be con-
strued in no other way"
Butler, leading Senate oppon-
ent Of statehood Of Alaska and Ha-
wall. added:
THE question Immediately arises
as to whether this would be the
manner In which the present offic-
ials of Alaska would seek to con-
tinue their control under the pro-
posed new state government, and
whether this is not the real reason
why these officials appear so avidly
anxious to have the status of state
hood conferred on the Territory"

North Koreans Heavily
Armed Division Eastward
10 Face U.S.. 18th Division
(By Associated Press

Communist forces posed serious
new threat to Pusan in the south
today. Pusan is the main U. S.
supply base for South Korea.
On the north central front Allied
troops inched ahead into positions
given up by withdrawing Red forces
north of Taegu.
A division of Red Korean troops
in three heavily armed columns of
men and machines began rolling
eastward Thursday night on the
Korean south coast against positions
of the u. S. 25th Infantry Division.
Intelligence officers said major
offensive may be imminent there.
With American forces on the alert,
u. S. pilots watched the Reds
marching in clusters of eight or 10
men at 5O-foot intervals to minimize
the danger of air attack. Fighters,
bombers and jet planes hammered
at the three columns Immediately
after the movement was reported.
Two BPS bombers smashed at con-
centrations which apparently were
marshalled at Chinju, the Reds
southern anchor SIS miles west of
Pusan.
There was danger in the north,
too, although pressure eased.. For
five days the Americans and South
Koreans beat back thanking attacks
which jabbed and probed in an ap-
parent search for a soft spot to
launch a 50.OO0-man attack on Tae-
gu, main United Nations forward
base.
Tactics Puzzle Allies
The sudden shifts of North Kor-
can forces in the Taegu sector puz-
zled Allied officers. Units of the
main North Korean forces were re-
ported drifting eastward along the
defense line of American and South
Korean troops. Enemy pressure less
ened along a line now Is miles
north of Taegu.
With the immediate threat to
the city apparently somewhat less
ened, UN forces frightened their
lines. South Koreans, aided by U. S..
fighter bombers, captured 1.-The

right flank along the rocky corri-
dor leading to Teagu. It had been
Red observation post. 9s9
There was an air of cautious OPP
timism at the front. But the Reds
still were massed for possible
lunge. Some U. S. officers expressed
belief the Reds were seeking a
thanking route for the Taegu drive.
Others said the Communists were

is %. The offenses with which they
were charged date from June, 1949,
to April, 1850.
The cases came from the U. S.
Commissioners Court in Sitka.
where the original charges were of
felonies. Commissioner Frank M.
Richardson waived juvenile juris-
diction. All eight waived Grand
Jury indictments and pleaded guilty
to petit larceny on an information
submitted by the U. S. District At

Stuart M. Brown, 17-year-old son
of Sitka banker. and Carl George

counts: of stealing pistol and am

money from the Arrowhead Press.
Both were sentenced to $3.50 fine
on each count also to three month
Jail terms which were suspended
on condition that the fines be paid,
and subject to continued good be-
havior. In the event that Brown en-
lists in the U. S. Navy and Fetter
in the Army, the suspended jail
sentences are to be vacated.
Lynn King and Richard Oran

to one charge each of stealing beer
and gin from the Reliable Transfer
Company Warehouse.
Judge Fo1ta sentenced each to
pay 500 fine and to 80 days in
jail, these terms suspended on con-
ditions of paying the fines and
good behavior. Their fathers, Charl-
es A. King and Albert Brookman,
respectively, we're appointed pro-
baton officers to see that the con-
ditions of the sentences are carried
cut.
The four others were charged with
taking a radio and receiving set

warehouse at Mt. Edgecumbe.
RAYMOND Keith Thurman, %, was
fined $3.50 and given a two-month
Jail sentence, which was suspended
ON conditions of paying the fine and

sentence are carried out.
Julian M. Porter, Is, was fined
$3.50 and given two-month jail

Paul Allen Willett, 10. was fined
S10O and his 3O-day sentence was
similarly suspended with his father,

mended by U. S. Attorney P. J. Gil
more, Jr., who presented the case
for the Government. M. E. Mon
agile was attorney for Brookman ana
King. The others were represented
by Robert Boochever.
