Dy the central LABOR Union,
AFL, w h i C h sponsored the
meeting, with the active as
sistance of the Toledo Indus
trial Union Council.
/ Mr.. Ewing did two things -
and as is usual with those who
rely on the newspapers for their
information those who did
not attend got only half the
story. He teed off on Taft, and
he explored the National Health
Program in detail.
The attack on Taft was in
corporated in a speech lasting
33 minutes. The exploration and
explanation of National Health
lasted just short of an hour and
three times as long.
The attack on Taft was fo-
cused on the fact that Taft
would be the major opponent of
any National Health bill, just as
he has been, Mr.. Ewing pointed
out, the major opponent of any
other Improvement in human
affairs.
Mr. Ewing predicted that the
people would defeat Taft in
Ohio, elect Ferguson, and con-
tinue the administration which
has given the country the great
est prosperity it has ever en-
joyed.
Then, in questions from the
floor which were prompt and
continuous, he answered ques-
tions about National Health, ex-
planning exactly what the bill
would do, how it would work.
what it dealt with and what it
did not.
This, obviously, was what the
people had come for, and they
overlooked no point in their

GOT THE REST?
Sure, there was a professional
promoter, and promoters are a

heard of paying $4,000 to a

the SAME deal all over again?
Expenses? Maybe as high as
$4,000. Decorations. rent, pay

 WASHINGTON, (P) - Federal Judge Anthony J. Dimond of Alaska told the Senate interior committee today Alaska can op- 'erate as a state on a sound finan- cial basis without oppressive tax atiOn.
 Dimond, testifying in favor of a House-approved bill to grant the Territory statehood, said the ques- ton had been asked whether the Territory can afford statehood.
 Tt is much like asking a man." he said, eff he can afford to live. Our visible ability in that respect is clearer than was the ability of the Colonies to declare and de- fend their independence"
 He testified that those who op- pose statehood say it is not pru- dent to take on responsibility of statehood.
 "That prudence" he continued, lis just another name for fear"
 Dimond. former Delegate from Alaska, said the Territory comes 'squarely within the frame of the Constitution" in asking statehood

Telephone Strike On; Railroad
 Strike Threatens
CBy The Associated PresS)


 A strike of 10000 telephone equipment workers began today. Their walkout in nearly all States won't affect the public immedi- ately. unless breakdowns require repairs.
 A railroad strike. scheduled for Wednesday, worried four major lines. Freight and passengers may be tied up on the four railroads affected.
 The 91-day-old Chrysler strike continued, but talks between management and the CIO AW union weer resumed.
 The telephone strike was begun by members of Divisiin Six of the CIO communications workers in 43 states and the District of Co., lumbia. Contract talks in a month old contract dispute collapsed Sunday night.
 Although the strikers do build ing and maintenance work only their walkout could have an i'm medately paralyzing effect if they set up picket lines which other telephone workers would refuse to cross.
 The union announced, however, no picket lines would be estab- lished before midnight tomorrow when President Truman's wage strike truce in the case ends.
 A minor grievance at South Bend, Ind, was blamed as the i'm mediate cause of the strike, but wage dispute had been under ne- gotiation since last October.
 The South Bend case came to the surface nationally over the weekend and was treated by the union as one of the strike issues. Company spokesmen insisted it should be submitted to griev- ance committee.
 That dispute stemmed from re- fusal of six men to walk through a muddy field to their jobs on television tower under construc- ton.

 WASHINGTON, (P)-Secretary of interior Chapmen said today that by any standard we apply Alaska is eligible for statehood"
 Chapman presented the admin iStration'S reasons for wanting Alaska taken into the Union in testifying before the Senate inte- rior committee.
 "I would say that we have an obligation to admit Alaska" he said, "and that if we are to say No to the request of the people of Alaska we must have very good reasons to justify our actions not only to them and to ourselves, but to the world.
 q have heard no reasons which have substance" he added.
 Chapman testified at the open ing of a hearing on the House-ap- proved Alaska and Hawaii state hood bills.
 Before Chapman took the stand Senator Butler R.-NebrD, rank ing Republican on the committee, told a reporter he does not be- lieve "any of the propositions of fered Alaska thus far" warrant the people of Alaska accepting Statehood under them.
 q don't think they have been offered an acceptable proposi- tion," Butler said. ''I am for state hood eventually"
 Chapman told the committee that the United States has spoken out loudly and firmly against CO., lonialism in the world councils. but surely to require a people qualified for the ultimate in self government to continue in a de- pendent status is to foster colon ialism."
 He said Alaska has been exer- cising for years the powers of self government, has an elected legiS- lature, permitted women to vote before the United States did, has protected the right of labor and in anticipation of increased finan- cial burdens under Statehood has enacted personal and corporation income tax laws and a real pro- perty tax.
 Chapman said Alaska has a good educational system. He said the Territorial Legislature is evenly divided, the Senate having two more Democrats than Repub- licans and the House having two more Republicans than Demo- crats.
 "They want to be able to vote in Presidential elections and they want to elect voting representa- lives in Congress" he continued.
 "To this lack of voting repre- sentation may be ascribed such

 ated CzechosloVakia sentenced two Czechs to death today on charges of high treason and spy ing for the United States. Another of six Czechs was sentenced to | life imprisonment and the others got long prison terms.
 During the trial four former U. s. embassy officials in Prague were accused of directing the spy ring. The charges were denied by Americans as fantastic.
 The Czechoslovak development is part of the pattern of the cold war which was stepped up yester- day by Russia.
 Russia rejected in all categories an American note which said Russian airnen shot down an un- armed navy plane over the Bal tic. It said the plane was a B-29 that violated Soviet territory.
 Russia intervened in the Fri este situation with a humping protest and renewed her demands | for special rights in the Darde- nelleS.
 Secretary of state Dean Ache son said this Soviet spring offen- sive is evidence that Russia hopes to gain by stirring up trouble in critical areas of the world.
 State department officials weighed several courses of action in the war of "total diplomacy" i Some Congressmen demanded the U. $. break off relations with Rus sia but administration leaders shied away from such an extreme step.
 Washington observers said the United States might deliver final stinging protest to Moscow and then withdraw Ambassador Alan c. Kirk for consultations and place the grave BaItis plane incl dent before the United Nations or the International Court of Justice.
 The United Nations is facing it's most serious crisis due to a Rus sian boycott over failure of the majority of U. N. members to seat communist China's delegates. Sec retary- general Trygve Lie sails for Europe today on a -the-U. N. mission which may take him to Moscow for talks with Prime Min ister Stalin. Before leaving he conferred with President Truman.
 The crucial battle for Hainan island is still raging but the out come is uncertain due to conflict ing reports of the Nationalist Chi neSe defenders and the Red in vaders. A telephoned dispatch to a Hong Kong newspaper from Hainan said the communists were fighting within six miles of Hoi- how, Hainan's capital. It said Hoi- how was almost a dead city and the Nationalists had abandoned their headquarters.
