 Only part of the three-day meeting, sponsored by the Ma tional Research Council, will be open to the public, but many pre- pared talks were made available to the press on subjects ranging from agriculture to weather, from wildlife to national defense.
 Deputy Secretary Richardson told a reporter:
 "The strategic value of Alaska has emphasized it's value very greatly to the United States. It al ways has been important to devel- Op AlaSka's natural resources; hence the Territory has always been of first class economic inn pOrtance.
 Now, world events have shap- ed themselves so that Alaska s strategic importance at least equals, and may overshadow, her economic importance"
 
 But this situation exists, he add ed, at a time when there is a na- tional shortage" of scientific manpoWer for research and de- velopment work generally.
 Recent increases in research and development" he said, shave drawn attention to the manpoWer problem. There is doubt as to the supply of manpoWer to handle a substantially increased program beyond present artivities.

WASHINGTON, (P) - Demo- cratic Gov. Ernest Gruening of Alaska stuck out his chest We'd nesday and said that hereafter the political prognosticators and poli- tocians had better remember "that as Alaska goes so goes the na- tion."
 Alaska held it's biennial election four week ago, and the Repubh- cans made gains but not quite enough to control the Territorial Legislature.
