 This situation is due to the tre- mendous rise in the case load now being carried. the increase being unexpected when money was last appropriated, he explained.
 Programs under departmental re- sponsibility are: aid to dependent children, juvenile code, old age assistance, general relief, and child welfare service.
 Harmon reviewed happenings which affected the departments op- eration since its last meeting, such as the increase in hospital rates for needy patients; continuation of the restricted medical assistance policy; the $50 limit on general relief; re- establishment of the Nome office, and child welfare service progress in Fairbanks.
 pr. c. Earl Albrecht, head of the Department of Health, appeared before the board to explain legisla- ton pending in Congress on welfare and health assistance, and Don c. Foster. area director of the Alaska Native Service, appeared to discuss joint welfare problems concerning his service and the welfare board.

STAR GOVERNMENT
 WITNESS TE5TiFiES
 IN H. BRIDGE5' CASE

SAN FRANCISCO, March 1-tR -Meryyn Rathbone, star Govern ment witness in the perjury trial of Harry Bridges, testified today that former U S. Attorney General Tom Clark, personally, asked him to be a Government witness.
 MT. Clark said he had heard quite bit about me- Rathbone continued. "The Government was seriously concerned with Commit mist infiltration into trade unions, and with Communist infiltration generally"
 He said the Attorney General told him that "the cold war was on, and in event of shooting war, the Government was of the opinion that the Communist Party would act as a fifth column in this country"
 Rathborne, himself a one-time California CIO leader, said yester- ddy AC Wdo a SoAiiiAiuAiAoI oA ey member from 1885 to 1947. He tes- tified that he perjured himself twice in testimony before legislative committees when he denied he be- longed to the Communist Party. He said he had lied on those occa- sions on advice of Communist Party leaders.
 This testimony brought Defense Attorney Vincent Hallinan to his feet with shouts that Rathborne was perjurer and a felon. It was the remark about Rathborne being a felon that got Hallinan in bad with Judge George Harris. The Judge previously had rebuked Hal

BOARD POINTS OUT WELFARE LAWS NEED

Problems confronting the De- parment of Public Welfare due to changing economic conditions in Alaska, plus the need for changing of laws pertaining to departmental work, were discussed today by the semi annual conference of the pub lie welfare board.

ITO REHABILlTATE| CATHOLIC CEMETERY l

At a meeting held in the Parish Hall last evening at which there was a representative group of the Catholics of Juneau, it was decided to rehabilitate the Catholic plot of the cemetery.
 This rehabilitation is to be very complete. All cemetery head stones are to be removed and when the entire plot is cleared and leveled they will be replaced, but at ground level.
 Persons living in Juneau who have members of their families or relatives buried in the Catholic plot of the cemetery should get in touch with Father Whelan, pastor of the Catholic Church immediately, if they wish to personally supervise and assist in the removal and re- placement of particular headstones.
 The preliminary work will begin this evening. Volunteer workers of the parish will gather at the cemetery at 6:45 pm, or as soon thereafter as possible. Joe Smith will direct the work. Beginning this evening the work will be carried on each evening between the hours of about 6:45 and dark and all day on Saturday.

surveyed or unvacated lands to pro- vide revenue for carrying the cost of statehood and chance .of con- tinuing Federal bureaucracy, which passage of the bill would fasten on the State of Alaska.
 No favorable comments have been heard so far on either side confirm ing the Interior Departments ad- ministration of Alaskan affairs. Proponents united in excoriating the Native reservation policy and in demanding rights of first class citizenship for all Natives.
 Groans and Cheers
 Announcement today that Na- tives at Shungnak had voted against going on the reservation recently withdrawn for them by ex-Secre- tary Krug was greeted with applause as yesterdays announcement that Indians at Hydaburg had accepted reservation station was greeted with groans.
 In answer to repeated inferences by proponents that the opponents were "at this belated moment try ing to kill the bill with kindness" Arnold said he had made all his present objections to the bill known to the House Public Lands Con- mittee 13 months ago, both by wire and in writing.

 Arnold said the reason the Sal mon Industry was opposed to the bill is that as the largest developed industry in Alaska it would have to foot 'an unbearable" share of the tax load unless new taxable re-

sources were found. This bill would make it difficult to find these sourceS" He added:
 T offer no apologies for my stand to Oscar Chapman or any man" Arnold concluded.
 Arnold earlier said it was his be- lief that non-contiguity of Alaska to the continental United States should be no bar to statehood and that the fact Alaska, like Hawaii, was an incorporated Territory should be no guarantee of statehood.
 The argument advanced here,' said Arnold, that the organization of region as a Territory carries with it an implied promise that the Territory will be admitted as a state at some future time carries some persuasion, all right, particularly if you live in a Territory which wants to be a state.
 But who is to determine the qualification of the Territory which is applying for admission-the Ter ritory itself and the people in it.? That would be strange doctrine-a union so permanent as ours could never operate in such a manner. This is a question for everybody: would the public interest of all the people-of the states as well as Alaska-be served by admission?"
 Sen. Anderson interrupted at this point to say:
 There should be no implied promises of statehood. Considered on the merits of it's individual case an incorporation of any Terri tory, any place. at any time, should be allowed without implied promise of eventual statehood"

sy ths Assoeiotsd Press

LONDON, May 27.-RusSian
scientists were several decades
ahead of the world in establish
ing electrical units of measure
ment now know as ampere and
ohm, the Russian news agency
TaS said today.
The Tass claim. based on a
report to the commission on the
history of physico-mathematical
sciences in Leningrad. was an
other in the current series of
"f1rsts" in the world in science
proclaimed by Moscow.
The Russian electrician Kacoby
was the first to propose the unit
for measuring current strength
and electrical resistance and with
the scientist Lenz the first to pro-
pose methods of studying the
magnetic properties of materials
Tass said.
The world generally credits the
French scientist Andre Marie Am
pere with developing the mathe-
matical theory known as Ampere s
law in 1920 and the German
Georg Simon Ohm with estab-
fishing in 1927 the practical unit
of electrical resistance known as
the Ohm.
