Territorial indebtedness was ab- horrent to James Wickersham who was for many years Alaskas Del egate in Congress and who, having introduced the first statehood bill is frequently called the Father of Alaska Statehood
 Back in 1911, when he was work ing to have Alaska made a Ter ritory, Judge Wickersham appear cd before a House committee to speak about the proposed Organic Act.
 After reading the section of the Act that forbids Territorial debt, he said.
 T think that is as drastic a prohibition against debt as can be written in the English language It was formulated from the con- stitution, the laws, and the con- ditions with which I was well ac- quainted in the State of Wash ington."
 And in supporting his prohibit tion against indebtedness, Judge Wickersham added: Years ago I lived in the Territory of Washing ton. In 1889 we induced Congress to make a State out of the Terri ritory. The day after we became a State the State and every county and city started issuing bonds, and they did not stop until the constitutional, statutory and even the financial limit had been pass ed. It was an era of extravaganza and dishonesty in public affairs and I want to guard against that form of improvidence in the pub lie finances of Alaska"

which are in good shape, but do
not provide ample space and
equipment for the best instruc-
ton.
Library Shortage
A visit to the school library
provided an excellent example of
the lack of space and equipment.
M. M. Buchanan, librarian and
seventh grade teacher, who has
completed most of her Masters
Degree work at Southern Univers-
ity in Atlanta, said, eve need
1900 books in our library to pro-
vide the normal requirements of
reading and reference. At pres
ent we have only 900."
Many of the desks are too small
for the children using them. Some
are old, rickety and badly Scared.
Ventilation seemed to be excellent
in all classrooms, but lighting
needed great deal of improve
ment.
33 Years On Faculty
Among Alexander High teachers
with longest teaching experience
was Emma j. Winston, third grade
teacher with IS pupils on roll.
She has been a teacher here for
more than 33 years.
The main school building is
equipped with an auditorium with
a seating capacity of 600. Classes
are held in the auditorium, but
its small size precludes a general
assembly of all the student body
for school functions.
A football field is available but
the lack of grass sod on its sur
face hinders its full use in bad
weather.
A gymnasium constructed at a
cost of $4,000 provides space for
physical education for boys and
girls. Showers and dressing
rooms are available.
Dulc I1cduS science
The science department, headed
by Jessie Buie, an alumnus of
Alexander High School and grad
uate of Benedict College in South
Carolina, is small but wisely used
1t is provided with one microscope
and pot plants for use in labor
atory work.
The school has an excellent
Home Economics Department with
Dorothy Lewis and M. B.. Buch-
anan in charge. Seven electric
sewing machines, completely fur
nished kitchen and a model liv-
ing room and bedroom are pro-
vided.
Some of the tables, book racks
and other furnishings have been
constructed by boys in the work
shop.
A good cafeteria is provided
with a staff of five to cook the
noon meal for the children who
eat their meals at the school.

Smash Another
Harlem Dope Ring

NEW YORK, Sept. 17.-Another
big dope ring, operating in Har-
lem, netting close to 2 million
dollars year, was smashed last
week by New York police. After
a 10-week investigation, detectives
closed in Friday and nabbed four
Italian peddlers and two Negroes,
one of whom was a user.
Detectives say the daily take of
this gang was close to $4,000. Out
of-town dope peddlers planed into
New York from as far away as
Chicago and Los Angeles to do
business with the ring.
When picked up, one of the ped
dlers had fat roll of $500 in
his pocket. Cops had posed as
traffic rockies at the corner of
10th and Pleasant avenue and
also as porters in buildings to
observe the operations of the gang.
One of the Negroes, Charles
Marshall of Brooklyn, was a
needle man., that is he used a
needle to inject the heroin in his
arm. After his arrest, he fell to
the floor of the police station,
writing in misery until a police
surgeon gave him an injection.
The other Negro was Clinton Byrd,
Harlem resident. All are being

From AZA to
White House
BY MURRAY FRANK

WASHINGTON (AJP) = Presi-
dent Harry Truman's headline
hunter, young Jewish midwest
erner, is plain "Irv' to the hun
dreds of top-flight newsmen who
cover the White House "beat"
day in and day out. Formally his
name is Irving Perlmeter and his
job, precisely, is Assistant Press
Secretary to the President of the
United States.
Perlmeter, in his new capacity,
is a member of the Presidents
immediate staff, or as it is some
times referred to here as the
Presidents '"official family" He
attends the Presidents daily staff
meetings, sits in on his weekly
press conferences, is called on
often for consultation with the
President on press matters, and
distributes official White House
news and statements to the large
galaxy of reporters accredited to
the White House.
On occasions he accompanies
President Truman on special
trips, such as to Key West, Flor
ida, in the spring and ON the
Potomac cruises of the presiden-
tial yacht Williamsburg"
Oddly enough, since the resig-
nation of David Niles, Perlmeter
is now the only Jew on President
Truman's staff. He takes it some
what stoically.
Nothing to brag about, it just
happened" he told me the other
day when I interviewed him. II
just can't explain it myself" He
admitted though that he loves his
new job, and as for the family
"they are just very proud about
it,"
In discussing Jewish affairs,
Perlmeter wildly recalled his as
ISOLATION with AZA, the B'nai
Birth boys organization, as
youngster in Omaha and later as
member of the Omaha B'nai
Birth Lodge and other local Jew
ish groups. He knew well the late
Henry Monsky, the B'nai Birth
national president, who similarly
hailed from Omaha, and often
heard him speak at Jewish func-
tons.

Factors Involved

In addition to the usual refer
ence sources on India, there are
three up-to-date sources Of infor-
nation which throw new light on
the present problem. These are
the Indian newspapers. of which
several-score arrive regularly at
the Library Of Congress; the In
dian Embassy and the United
States Bureau of Reclamation.
The newspapers tell a story
which can be put in a rough
composite form thus: India must
face an annual shortage of at
least 6 million tons Of grain now
and for some years to come. Food
control lacks the needed central
ization and firmness. Nepotism Is
widespread. There is too much
black marketing. In two Of the
hardest-hit areas people have for
some time been existing on grass
herbs and locusts. Cholera, while
fourishing at a slightly increased
rate, cannot be counted on to
reduce population sufficiently to
affect the problem. Food control
is stacked for city folk and
against farm folk. There is a
dangerous proportional increase
in cash crops Cotton and jute)
as against food crops. The gov
eminent itself markets the cash
crops overseas for needed foreign
exchange. The price of rice is
too low. Instances are given OF
farmers planting rice in time to
have their fields passed by the
inspectors and then pulling UP
the rice to plant cash crops. Thus
some Of the planted" food land
is a deception. The case Of q
portion Of West Bengal is cited

the hills. The Army had cleaned
up the Southern Plains Indians
in short order two years earlier.
Certainly these Civil War veterans
could trounce the Sioux with dis
patch.
So thought the East. Some in
formed Westerners had different
ideas, but were not averse to hav-
ing the Army take on the Sioux.
In late 1878, a conference of
President Grant with several cab
met members and Indian Bureau
officials resulted in decision that
the wandering Sioux must settle
upon their reservations or be pun
ished by the military. (Since little
attention was paid at the time to
the fact that all treaties with the
Sioux provided the contrary, scant
mention suffices now.) In Deem
Der the Indian agents in Dakota
and at Fort Peck. Mont, were in
structed to warn all Sioux that
unless they got within the bounds
of their reservation before jan
uary 81, 1876, they would be
deemed hostile and treated &C
cordingly by the Army.
That winter was a tough one.
Temperatures of 80 and 40 below
were commonplace. Shows were
heavy. Few runners sent to tell
the Indians got to them before
the time for expiration of the I'LL
timatum. Still, some groups moved
