STATEHOOD WON'T GIVE SECURITY
 TO ALASKANS

The Seattle Times in well timed and explain able editorial, and under the above caption, took definite position statehood for Alaska In order that all may read and digest this editorial, it is follows:
 Aaskas bid for statehood at this session of Con- gress has caused stir in some sections of the country than it has in Seattle and the Pacific North west From Huron, South Dakota, for example comes a copy of that citys Daily Painsman with a special four-page supplement devoted to the Alaska state hood issue. The repeated theme is that Alaska's security depends on giving the Territory the status of a state.
 There is little disposition here to oppose state hood for Alaska-snce majority of it's citizens have declared by that they want it. whether they can afford it not But the argument that the military security of the Territory depends on statehood has always seemed weak any that can be marshaled on that side of the controversy.
 The South Dakota newspaper contends that more population and more roads prime requirements for Aaskas security; that statehood will attract more people to the Territory, and admit Alaska to the Fed era-aid program for the construction of highways.
 Consider for a moment the population phase of this argument Sometime ago the vulnerability of the Seattle to attack from the Pacific was in question; but there suggestion that lack of

of China" the living Buddha wrote. 'The remaining one-fifth is about to encounter danger, and the terror of CoInmunisffA seems to be ap- preaching near to Tibet. The road is difficult for military offen- sive against Tibet, yet if they were able to win the mind of Tibet, they would with small numbers be able to dominate large numbers. I pray earnestly that your honor, with your vast understanding, will protect Tibet and to show that country and teach it how to pro- ceed and to understand.
 Mongolia and Tibet are alike in religious faith" the living Budd- ha continued Moreover, the fun damental policy of Communism is not to make use of any religion, but wherever its teachings may reach, to extinguish immediately the re- ligion of that land. In outer and inner Mongolia now, religion is vanishing altogether.
 If Mongols fleeing from Red Terror should reach your honored country of India, pray with pro- found faith that they may be lided and protected"

civilian populace in the immediate vicinity was fac tor New England and the Great Lakes region, among the most populous sections of the country under the same shadow And Seattle and these other areas rose up to demand that if they Insecure, ade- quate defenses be provided for them.
 Alaska certainly is a vulnerable spot, geographi- cally being right across the water from Siberia And if it is nsecure-as one must fear it swhat is inn mediately needed is not population, but ade- quate defense installations, chiefly to support suf ficent air force to make it impregnable
 That cannot await a slow process of settlement by civilian pioneer families And let no one be optimistic enough to imagine that the comforting of statehood will inagurate instantaneous rush of new people to the northern Territory, like the gold rush of the 90s
 As to the road problem, if Alaska's security de- bends on Federal highway aid, let Federal highway aid provided It makes little difference whether the money comes from highway aid funds or by out right appropriation, since American taxpayers would foot the bill in any
 Many Alaskans see good reasons why the Territory should be admitted to the Union as state; many see good reasons why that step should be delayed. The argument that security depends statehood is not convicng to the latter. Impregnabe defenses by air and sea- not statehood, constitute the sine qua non of Alaska's security.

SEAL HUNTERS ASK CIVIL SERVICE RATE

WASHINGTON, April 4-tR-The 500-odd seal-catching Aleuts ot Alaska's Pribilof Islands want to be Civil Service employees instead of government wards.
 The Interior Department, which administers their work, approves of the idea-in general terms, at least. It has asked the Civil Service Con- mission for ruling.
 The Pribilof Islands are the sum- mer-time home of about 80 percent of the worlds fur seals.
 In 1910 the US. government took over management of the herds. then growing scarce. Under it's control the seals have increased; the Prib- ilof natives have been conducting the annual harvest.
 A Civil Service Commission spokesman said that agency always has looked upon the natives as wards of the government, not civil service employees. He said the question now is being re-examined.

Our Basic Tax" System
(Ketchikan News) We were never very bright at figures.

We were never very bright at figures
 However it takes no mathematician to know that when incoming funds do not meet outgoing, there is bound to be deficit.
 We can't get over-optimistic about the recent Territorial Treasurers report in which he says S80000C borrowed from private banks has been unthawed ano paid, or that tax money is rolling in"
 The catch here is that no interest was paid or the principal The next legislature will undoubtedly be asked to appropriate money for this interest have waited still longer in order to give this money to needed welfare work Also the $25000 unfrozen for the Statehood Board and the $75000 for the Fisheries Board better could been used for needed welfare work.
 Though funds may be rolling in" there also are refunds to schools which have not been made for sev- era years Everyone knows how desperately the schools need money
 The fine basic tax system which the Governor boasts about is still in "a devil of mess, apparently with more of the unfrozen funds coming in paid fol political purposes than for old-age pensions and vel fare agencies.
 The last meeting of the board attended by Secretary of Alaska Lew Williams. Attorney Genera J. Gerald Williams, Treasurer Henry Roden, Commis- soner of Education Charles Ryan and Neil Moore deputy collector A total of $261 564 was unfrozen Of this amount S1OOOOO given to the Fisheries anc Statehood Boards

Blocking Asiatic Communism

This column recently secured a copy. of letter written to Prime Minister Nehru of India by the living Buddha of western Mongolia, now refugee in Baltimore living under the wing of Owen Lattimore, the Johns Hopkins professor whom Senator Mccarthy has charged with being the top Communist spy in the United States.
 India has long been consider ed by the United States as the key country in blocking the spread ot Communism, which is one reason we gave Prime Minister Nehru the royal-carpet treatment on his visit here last fall. The living Buddha seems to have similar views. Any way here is the letter sent to Nehru by the man whom "tor Communist SPY" Lattimore brought to the U.S.A.:
 ''The teachings of Communism expounded and propagated by Len in, have spread widely and now prevail oyer more than four-fifths

Battle Over Gas

Usually fair-minded speaker Sam Rayburn revived memories of whip cracking Uncle Joe Cannon, by his haste to get House approval of the Kerr bill boosting natural gas prices.
 Rayburn had colleagues dizzy with his delft backstage maneuvers to speed Senate version of the bill through the House.
 However, Congressmen Ray Mad den of Indiana and John Mc- Sweeney of Ohio of the Rules Con- mittee furiously objected to the ''star-chamber" proceedings and rile fact that Rayburn arranged the Rules meeting on sudden notice while liberal chairman Adolph Sab- ath was out of town.
 The Speaker, whose Texas gas friends are clamoring for action wouldn't even agree to delay the meeting for a day, to enable Chair man Sabath to return to Washing ton. So the Rules Committee meet ing was called to order by Dixiecrat Acting Chairman Gene Cox of Georgia, poker-Elaying partner oi the speaker, which caused Madden to remark:
 If l didn't see the sun outside I'd think this meeting was be- ing held in the dead of night. l just learned accidentally about ter minutes ago that we were to be called into session.
 Why all the secrecy?" contin- ued the Indiana Democrat. "Anc why hasn't the Chairman been mo- tified? He'd be here If he was given proper notice that this bill was tc be considered. object to this un- orthodox procedure.
 When Cox explained that he hac called the meeting "at the instance Of the leadership" Madden firec [ back:

backed up his attorney general who would not give the Senate docu- ments on the removal of a district attorney.
 President John Tyler even sent a message to Congress spelling out his reasons for refusing to give War Department reports on Chero- kee Indians to the House of Rep reSentativeS.
 Senator Taft's father spelled out the issue quite clearly, though it was after he left the White House. "The President" he said, lis requir- ed by the Constitution from time to time to give Congress informa- tion on the State of the Union But this does not enable Congress or either House to elecit from him confidential information which he acquired for the purposeof enab- . ling him to discharge his Constitu- tional duties, if he does not deem the disclosure of such information prudent or in the public interest. "
 In 1879 the House Judiciary Committee even rebuked an investi- gating committee for trying to pry
 out State Department records re- garding the conduct of George F
 Seward, a Consul General in China Under our theory of govern
 ment," the Judiciary Committee ruled, "all the records of the ex- ecutive departments are under the control of the President. When ever the President has returned Gas sometimes he has) that in hi. Judgment it was not consisten

sumers. We ought to have more chance to study it.'
 In the showdown vote all the com- mittee, Republicans and all the Democrats, except Madden and Me Sweeney, supported Rayburn ano the natural-gas interests. It was a golden opportunity for Clarence Brown of Ohio and the commit tee Republicans to show little ndependence-and also put theil party on record as for the consumer in the coming campaign. But as usual they tagged behind the Dixie crats.
