The Forest Service reports a new
high in registration of visitors to
Mendenhall Glacier. In recent %
day period, 1859 visitors signed the
register book. Experience has shown
that less than 40 percent OF the
visitors register. This means that
approximately 5000 people went to
admire the most visited glacier in
Alaska" in that short period.
Although the number Of visitors
is impressive, the places from which
these people came is even more re-
vealing. Folks from Maine to Cali
fornia and from Florida to Wash
ington are represented, according to
District Forest Ranger Hardy; in
fact only six states are not listed
as homes of visitors.
Foreign visitors, too, are promi-
nent on the listing. with travellers

AGAIN HALTED
BY STEWARDS


SEATTLE, Aug 9-lR-S Signing
of stewards for two Alaska Steam
ship Company vessels was delayed
today while the stewards awaited
results of a conference in San
Francisco.
The members of the Marine
Cooks and Stewards Union tCIO)
said the delay was caused by the
same thing that held up another
of the company's ships for "a hours
last week. They objected then to
the Coast Guards method of re-
viewing sea papers OF members in
a security check.
The Steamship Alaska finally
sailed when it was agreed to dis
cuss the matter in San Francisco
with representatives of the Pacific
Maritime Association.
Vessels affected by the current
union balk are the freighter Vic
toria and the passenger steamer
Denali. The Victoria requires eight
cooks and stewards and the Den
ali go.
The San Francisco conferences
opened Monday.

STATEHOOD
BILLS RUN
into BLOCK
Objections Raised when
Attempts Made for Undni-
nous Consent Passage

WASHINGTON, Aug. 8 - Up -
Backers of proposals to grant state
hood to Alaska and Hawaii yester-
day made attempts to get the bills
passed by unanimous consent in the
Senate.
Both measures were blocked by
objections, but Senate Majority
Leader Lucas (D-IlD served notice
he wants the issue debated again
before Congress quits-and without
any parliamentary tricks.
Lucas told the Senate he "has
heard that an attempt will be made
to add controversial civil rights
legislation to the Alaska or Hawaii
bill.
Il certainly hope that doesn't hap
pen" he said.
Alaska, Lucas said, lis one of our
outposts vital to the defense
of all the states" and should be adj
mitted to the union. It's admission,
he said, would "open the frontiers
for millions upon millions OF
persons" and should be debated on
its merits without using any subter-
fuge.
Senator Knowland (R-CaliD told
the Senate he believed Hawaii is
equally important, and that Lucas
had not emphasized its statehood
bid sufficiently.
The situation in the Pacltlc
makes it especially important,
Knowland said.
Hawaii has much to offer IN
helping America to understand the
Far East and the Far East to under
stand America"
The statehood bills came before
the Senate under procedure by
which bills may be passed only by
unanimous consent-one objection IS
enough to block passage. There were
objections to each measure.
Lucas predicted both would be
considered again later under regular
procedure for debate, with a ma
pority vote to decide their fate.

LEGAL OPINIONS
In TRANSACTION,
PALMER AIRPORT

| FAIRBANKS, Alaska. Aug. 9.-iR
The News-Miner says an assistant
attorney general has held the con-
tract between the Territory and the
Palmer Airport Association to be
valid but had said he had mo idea"
as to whether it was wrongfully
entered.
The newspaper said the opinion
was by Asst. Atty. Gen. John H.
Oimond in response to Territorial
| Auditor Frank Boyle's inquiry about
the legality of the $l50,000 land
transaction.
Dimonds opinion described the
airport bills as valid and existing
obligations of the Territory" but
added that he did not know whether
the Territory and airport associa-
ton reached their agreement i'm
properly "since 1 do not have suf-
ficient facts to enable me to ascer
tain what was intended by the par
lies when the transactions occurred
However, if there was anything
! illegal in such transactions, it would
seem to me the Federal Govern
ment would be the one chiefly con-
cerned'
The newspaper said that District
Attorney P. J. Gilmore of Juneau
said, vhen questioned regarding
Rep. Marcus Jensen's request for a
grand jury inquiry: IF a grand
jury investigation is indicated, it
should be in the Third Division, the
site of the transaction. Any investi-
cation in this district is procedurally
incorrect"
The News Miner itself made the
original demand for an official in
quiry into the airport transaction
1t involved payment of s150000 by
the Territory to the Palmer Airport
Association and repayment of S145,-
GOO of it by the association to the
Territory. 1t has been described as
a transaction to increase the Fed
eral payment toward the airport
cost.
Jensen. a member of the legisla-
tive committee to inquire into Ter
ritorial affairs, said the reason he
asked for a First Division tJuneau)
grand jury is that the vouchers were
paid in that division and the capital
city is the proper place for action
because it is a Territorial matter.
On Auditor Boyle's inquiry about
continuing payments on the prof.
ect. the newspaper said Asst. At
torney General Dimond replied
Your office has no legal basis Tor
refusing to make payments to en-
gineers, contractors and others"

ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Aug. 9-LR
"A berserk gunman roamed the
streets of Homer, 125 miles south
west of here early today, as ter
rorized inhabitants hid in their
homes.
The rifle toting wild man began
his reign of terror last night,
threatening to kill six men as Re
started roaming the streets of the
homesteader's town on the Kenai
Peninsula. He fired only one shot
but it was enough to keep resi-
dents indoors.
Two deputy marshals, armed with
rifles and gas grenades, left here
by a Tenth Rescue Squadron plane
at am. today in answer to a
distress call. They had been adj
vised to approach the man with
extreme caution and cut him down
if he starts fuss.
First word of the incident was

Administration wire from Homer.
U. S. Commissioner George Bishop
reported that myself and five
other men were threatened to be
killed with a high-powered rifle
in his hands after he fired one
shot,
1--WE need experienced help, if
possible, SO he may be captured, !"
Bishop wired. "He is large man
and apparently insane"
The gunman's name with with
held until charges are filed.
U. S. Marshal Paul Herring said
lateness of the hour prevented
further communication with Homer
but he believes no one has been
injured. He said Bishops message
did not state what provoked the
rampage.
Homer is town of about 1926

The section was a compromise

In addition to giving the Pres
ident authority to order rationing
It would authorize him to impose
ceilings on wages and prices at his
discretion. But it suggests he first

voluntary agreements.
The Presidents authority would
expire next June 80.
In determining Price ceilings the
President would have to give due

by, the price levels of the May "a

wages or salaries at a figure below
the levels that prevailed during
