"Unnitigated Lie,' LattimOre Calls Mccarthy Charges

WASHINGTON, (P) - With a fresh denial of any communist ties, Owen Lattimore returned to the United States Saturday to re- ply formally to charges by Sena- tor Mccarthy R.-Wis) that Latti- more is the top Soviet espionage agent in this country.
 Lattimore, a Johns Hopkins uni versity professor, landed by plane in New York as a new storm ap- peared brewing in the Capitol over whether a Senate committee has a right to force Mccarthy to surrender documents in the case.
 Two Republican Senators - Bridges of New Hampshire and Hickenlooper of Iowa-took ex- ception to a suggestion by Demo- cratic Senator Green (CR. I0 that if Mccarthy declines to turn over his papers in the case he should be ordered to do so.
 Mccarthy has said he can pro- duce proof that Lattimore CD is a Soviet agent and @ is or has been a member of the communist party.
 Lattimore, an American expert on Far Eastern affairs, already has labelled McCarthy's charges lon unmitigated lie"
 Returning from a United Ma tions mission to Afghanistan, Lat timore told reporters in New York he feels ''unutterable contempt" for Mccarthy, whom he called "baSe and miserable creature"
 "Of course I an not commun- hist, nor a fellow traveller, nor have I ever been," Lattimore de- clared. He added that he is "glad to be back in America where I can get a fair hearing"

 "I would favor a military gov- eynment there until this tension between ourselves and the Soviet Union has been settled"
 He said he had privately asked a great number of AlaSkans how they felt about statehood. "For the most part-thoSe who are not on the government payroll-they were either indifferent or against statehood. I found most of those who favor statehood are in the political field"
 He said Alaska should have statehood when it has an ade- quate population commensurate with its area"-tho or three mil lion.
 For Alaska to carry out its du- ties under statehood, Hubbard said. there would have to be 'ex- ceSsiVe" taxation of such interests as the salmon, pulp and mining industries. This, he said, might doom an industry like the salmon business, and it would highly in- crease costs to the ultimate con- sumers, besides.
 Also, he said, it would be dis propOrtionate" under this cOun- try's system to grant two Sena- tors to Alaska, with its estimated 3O,OOO voters

Urges Seattle To Support Non-

 "The Portland chamber of com merce and Senator Morse R.- OreD have backed the independ- ent carriers 100 per cent. Portland will reap the benefits if Seattle doesn't get on the team now!"
 Later he said:
 The Governor of Alaska has asked MT. Truman to appoint a fact-f finding board free of the biased attitude of the CAB, for the purpose of determining the needs of the Territory in air transportation.
 Fairbanks, Anchorage and the Portland Chamber of Commerce are supporting this program 100 per cent, and it would behoove the Seattle chamber of commerce to concur in this request.
 Seattle has enjoyed the posi- tion of being the stepping stone to Alaska. However, there is strong indication that this prestige may in the not too far distant future be lost if the demands of Alaska's citizens are not fully supported by this great shipping point.
 Alaska will welcome with open arms any fact-finding board that comes to the Territory with an open mind as to the needs of the people ..
 "The great American pioneer ing spirit which today is still ac- tive in our famous Alaskan bush pilots everyday lives is fast be- ing rubbed out by the boards en- forcement proceedings. Today it is the Alaskan bush pilot and the Alaskan on-scheduled airline op- orators that the CAB is regulating out of business"

Estimate l35,OOO Now In Alaska

SEATTLE (P)-Alaska's census director estimates that the Terri tory will show population this year of 135,000 permanent resi- dents, nearly double that of l940, the Acknowledgements Washing ton D.. C., bureau said today. The dispatch said that Clarence E.. Heating, Seward, made that esti- mate for Territorial Delegate E.. L. Bartlett.
 If the Senate approves state hood, growth will be greatly ac- celerated, Bartlett said.
 The 135,000 population figure would not include armed service personnel stationed in Alaska nor the thousands of fisheries and mine workers who go there each spring to engage in seasonal work.
 In 1940 the census was 72,524.
 Alaska's fast-growing metrop- oils, Anchorage, has increased from 3,488 in 194O to 25,080. Other cities have doubled or trebled, Bartlett said.
 This years census will be the most complete ever taken in Alas ka.
 Bartlett hopes to have consider able data on the Territory's pres ent population to present to the Senate committee on interior and insular affairs when hearings on the Alaska statehood bill open April 24. He said:
 Despite our limited and re- strictive Territorial laws, Alaska's permanent population has in creased rapidly since the war.
 "U. s. history shows that when ever Congress conferred statehood upon a territory its population boomed. That will be true in Alaska"

An underground tunnel would

tinued. He said studies of other
municipal stadiums around the
country reveal that some of them
have operated in the red from the
day they were opened.
To avoid this, the space usually
wasted under the seats would be
used. An auditorium with exhibit
rooms would occupy one corner
under the seats. A gymnasium
for basketball and boxing, with
seating for 5000, would be under
another corner.
A third corner would contain a
swimming pool with galleries, so
events could be watched, while the
fourth corter would be used by
a theater. either legitimate or

capacity of up to 1000.

A proposal for a national

ferred to the House District Com
mittee. No hearings have been
held however.
The bill designates no particu-
lar site for the stadium. Mr.

the East Capital street site but
would leave selection Of the site
to further consideration by inter-
ested parties and Congress.
To finance the project, the
measure would provide for issu-
ance Of bonds to the public, in
