dicted today the Senate Interior

their boundaries. The seawarc
boundaries of the States woulc
vary from 8 to 81 miles off theil
shores.

braska Attorney General and
representative Of the National
Association of Attorneys General

Mr.. Wheeler. representing IL
such applicants, said the oil COM
panies operating in the area un-
der State leases are "trespassers'
because the Supreme Court has
ruled that the States do not own
the off-Shore land.

and Signal Oil g. Gas Co.. denied
Mr.. Wheeler's charge.

ILLEGAL ENTRY

A Senate sub- committee internal security has just completed investigation on subversive ac- tvity in the United States and Senator Pat Mo Carran, chairman of the group, says that possibly 500O000 aliens have poured into this country illegally creating situton potentially dangerous than an armed invasion"
 The Nevada Senator says that his information comes from secret testimony by immigration officials who complain that they cannot keep the unwarranted foreigners out of this country because of lack of funds Senator McCarran alleges that vast numbers of mill tan Communists Scilian bandits and other criminals are among the aliens illegally residing in the United States
 The report also refers to the complaint of immi- grafton officials that in the past they have been hndered by congressional intervention in of aliens about to be deported There seems to be some foundation for this because many bills are intro duced in Congress every year to grant special con sessions to individual aliens.
 While the United States is prepared to welcome A reasonable number of intelligent, freedom loving aliens into this country, there is no reason in the world why we should permit the class of people described by Senator McCarran to enter the United States as prospective citizens. They are not familiar with our customs, culture civilization and know nothing about the democratic processes of free peoples Many of them bring their foreign ideologies With them and what is more dangerous their loyalty to foreign regimes.

STEVE VUKOVICH

With the passing of Steven Vukovich, Alaska has lost loyal American and valued citizen
 Steve was born in Yugoslavia in 1892 and came to Alaska in 1912. He American by his own free choice; he cherished his new-found homeland and he accepted his citizenship sacred trust.

 Being an American meant more, perhaps, to Steve than to most of us realized that freedom carried responsibility with and he never took it for granted nor did he shirk his responsibilities. He earned hls citizenship and it became part of him.
 To his widow and to his son, Steve leaves price lees heritage and proud remembrance.

flee or his home in Greenwich, Conn, to say that Brewster was coming. On one occasion, Pryor flew to Dexter with Brewster, then the two flew to Moosehead Lake for five days of fishing. When Brewster's son, Charles, returned from overseas, private Pan Ameri- can plane flew him to Dexter.
 The shocking thing is that all these free flights and favors were showered upon Brewster at the same time he was sponsoring special legislation to benefit Pan American. Since Pan American received heavy subsidies from the taxpayers, Brew ster's free rides were indirectly paid by the taxpayers.
 While explaining his amendment, Sen. Douglas suddenly realized the Maine Senator's reputation as a friend of Pan American. For he hastened to explain: T wish to make it clear that there is no per- sonal implication on the part of the Senator from Illinois with respect to anyone, either inside or outside of Congress.
 However, there was no question that under Douglas amendment, airlines could no longer give free flights to their friends in the Sen- ate. The amendment was adopted by a weak voice vote, but with no one dissenting.

DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL

Shortly after the war, British scientist told me that plans were under way to develop space rock ct capable of flying to the moon. I pooh-poohed the idea, thereby passing up good story.
 Last year however, American sci- entists and defense officials not only admitted that it was feasible to fly to the moon, but that the country which controlled the moon would control the earth, since it would be able to aim guided missiles back at the earth.
 The problem of reaching the moon is basically that of getting rockets to fly fast enough to attain an "es- cape" speed-an escape speed be- ing about 23,000 miles an hour sufficient to escape from the pull of the earths gravity.
 Another problem was to develop rocket which could carry atomic power in one part of the ship and human crew Tn the other part, yet protect the crew from radioactive rays.
 The significant fact is that in recent months, a means has been developed to protect the crew from atomic radiation in the rocket. Si- simultaneously, 20th Century Fox and Julian Blaustein have just put out a new picture The Day the Earth Stood Still" which gives a fascinating account of what might happen in Washington, D. c. if a space ship arrived here from another planet. The efforts to preserve the peace when not mere countries, but planets are involved, as set forth in this picture, are worth considering.

 Immediately Gov. Gruening rose to his feet. It was near the eno ol a long meeting. The Governors were anxious to get home. :.
 "I should like to point out that statehood resolution always has been adouted at previous Governors conferences" the Alaskan Cover nor said. "The Governor of Georgla has complained of federal abuses But he has no idea the ordeal the neonIe of Alaska and Hawaii suf- fer at the hands of the federal gov ernment. In effect we are minions of an absentee government.

 At this point Governor Driscoli ot New Jersey quietly got up and whispered in Talmadge's ear. There were other whispered conferences. Finally the presiding officer an- nounced: q understand the Gov ernor of Georgia would like to change his vote, provided his views on the principle involved are record ed.''
 Talmadge assented, Governor Jim mic Byrnes then said that he would like to put South Carolina on re- cord likewise.
 This made it unanimous for AL askan- Hawaiian statehood, and the conference adjourned.

FREE AIRPLANE RIDES

Senator Owen Brewster, Maine Republican, almost tipped his hand the other day when Senator Paul Douglas, Illinois Democrat, intro duced an amendment cutting off federal subsidies to any airline caught offering gifts to government employees.
 If entertainment or gratuities are offered by any airline to any governmental officer or employee, the subsidy will cease to be paid Douglas explained his amendment.
 Brewster, who has accepted vari- ous fayors from Pan American Air ways, impulsively jumped up
 T wish the Senator from Illinois would interpret the amendment. He refers to governmental officer or employee. I should like to be clear as to whether he includes members of Congress within the. scope of the amendment" Brewster blurted.
 T myself would think so," re- piled Douglas.
 Catching himself, Brewster hastily added. There should be no doubt that the amendment would apply to members of Congress"
 This is the same Brewster who used to fly home from Washington on week ends in private Pan Am- erican plane. The plane would circle over his Dexter, Maine, home as signal to his housekeeper, Mrs. Ellen Jenny Brown, to put dinner on.
