The inference is that Alaskan development cannot be carried on ! by private capital or individual initiative, that only the Govern ment, in the form of the Interior Department, can handle the job.
 Alaskans have never believed this arrogant nonsense. Most of them do not believe it today. But, if a small boy is told repeatedly that he is never going to amount to anything, he may in time be- lieve it.
 And if the Interior Department drums out it's savior theme long and loudly enough, it may con- vince majority of Alaskans and so complete it's subjugation of this i Territory.
 Secretary Chapman did not, of course, originate this policy of his department He inherited it from some of his predecessors in office, including Julius A. Krug and Har- old L. Ickes.
 As a matter of fact, Secretary Chapman did not even originate the task is too great for Alaska v statement that was attributed to him. He inherited it, too.
 This statement first appeared in a bulky dream book produced by the Bureau of Reclamation more than two years ago while Krug was still Secretary of the Interior.
 Specifically, it is item No. 42 in section of this dream book la beled Report of the Chief" This report" is dated May 2, 1949, signed by Joseph M Morgan, then Chief, Alaska Investigations Office, Bureau of Reclamation, and ad- dressed to the Commissioner of Reclamation.
 Michael w. Straus, Commission CT of Reclamation then as now, passed the report on to Secretary Krug with a covering letter dated May 20, 1949. And Secretary Krug sent it to the President on June l, 1949
 After it had kicked around Washington for a couple of years, the whole report was released by Secretary Chapman on July 20. 1851.
 It is an interesting document consisting of some $40 mimeo- graphed pages plus many pages of photographs, maps and charts Much of the factual information it contains is extremely valuable, although it is difficult at times to determine just where fact leaves off and fancy begins.
 There is a noticeable tendency, too, to disregard or gloss over any facts that might counteract the theories set forth in the document and to stress such facts as tend to support those theories.
 The interesting theory that Al aska cannot be developed by in dividuals and private capital has been disproved more than once. One example is the pulp indust- ry.
 Thirty years ago Alaska got it's first pulp mill, small plant at Speel River near Juneau. That

The Interior Department has for many years displayed strict paternalism in it's control of AL aska.
 Nowhere has the Departments attitude toward Alaska been more clearly shown than in a recent news story quoting Secretary Chapman on the future develop ment of the Territory.
 Ultimately, Alaska will contrib ute billions of dollars a year to national income" the press re- ports quote the Secretary as say ing
 This will only be possible when natural resources are fully devel- oped and utilized.
 Tt is a task too great for small groups of individuals, or even for Alaska
 Tt is a responsibility of the Federal Government to conserve and develop these resources so that people can utilize them for the creation of wealth and the benefit of mankind"
 The Secretary says to Alaskans, in effect: You are incapable Of doing anything for yourselves; therefore, it will be necessary for us to step in and do all things for VOL"

MiGrofiIming Outfit Purchased By Territory

Territorial agencies and depart ments are to have the opportunity of microfilming old records.
 Territorial Auditor Neil Moore made the announcement this morning adding that his office had ordered a microfilming out fit. It should be here in about six weeks, he said.
 An act, passed by the last ses- sion of the legislature, provided for destruction of obsolete records covering periods beyond ten years, if they are first microfilmed. The opinion and approval of the Attorney General and Territorial Treasurer is necessary before the records can be destroyed. The law prohibits destruction of rec ords which are considered to be of permanent value"
 Moore said the microfiIming equipment would be available to
 any Territorial office wishing to
 make use of it.
 Records will be photographed on Is nm film which is easily stored and takes about one-tenth the space occupied by the papers in filing cabinets. Moore pointed out that cabinets in his office which cost the Territory more than $200 a year, for adding sec tions, can be completely done away with under the microfilming system.
 The outfit bought by the Terri tory is Bell-Howell product which is distributed by Burroughs.

plant began the production of pulp on January A, 1921. The develop ment was poorly timed, coinciding with the business recession that followed World War I and that sent the price of wood pulp down. ward. It was also poorly financed and was unable to weather the recession. It closed down.
 But private investors did not lose interest in Alaska pulp de- velopment Since that time they have invested thousands of dol lars in studies and surveys of po- tential pulp development in South east Alaska. In this they were aided and assisted by the hard work of conscientious employees of a conscientious bureau. And this aid was given, it might be said, at no great cost in public funds.
 Those expenditures of private funds and the work of those bur eau employees are now bearing fruit in large pulp development at Ketchikan. It is privately if nanced. The engineering and con- struction will be paid for with pri- vate funds.
 The investors have not, it is understood. even asked that the Government provide the power facilities, although the Reclama- ton Bureau has, since the pro- ject was initiated, shown eager ness to get into the act.
 Another effort of private capital to develop Alaska was Alcoa's pro- posed aluminium plant at Skag- way. and this had sadder ending.
 Alcoa became interested there about the time the Reclamation Bureau commenced its Alaska car ger. And the Bureau promptly moved in on the Skagway project.
 The full story of what happen- ed there has not yet been told. When it is told, it is extremely likely the story will reveal that Reclamation Bureau bungling and Proclamation Bureaus insistence that the development be carried on according to its own plans had great deal to do with driving Alcoa to seek a location elsewhere.

More Intensive Probe
OF Tax Bureau Evils

Representative King, Democrat.
of California, yesterday promised
a more intensive House investi-
CATION of scandals in the Bureau
of Internal Revenue and said "in
many ways it has just begun" :"
There should be no doubt in
anyone's mind as to the con-
tinuing wide scope of the investi-
cation" Mr.. King declared.
His statement was made in an
nouncing that the House Ways
and Means subcommittee which
he heads will meet in a closed
session this week with Secretary
of the Treasury Snyder and John
B. Dunlap, new commissioner of
Internal Revenue.
Mr.. King said aspects of the
present investigation" will be dis
cusSed with the two officials. in
Guiding Mr.. Dunlap's recent Press
Club speech suggesting that dis
closures Of corruption and irregu-
larlties might imperil tax collec-
ton.
Public Confidence Cited.
IN the committees view," Mr..
King said, revenue collection is
FAR more dependent on a we'll
founded public belief that corrup-
tlon in the Bureau of internal
Revenue is being rooted out and
weaknesses in its structure are
being remedied. Public confidence
Is neither gained nor restored by
concealment. The committee in
tends to carry out fully the task
assigned to it."
Secretary Snyder said last
night. in an address prepared for
an American Legion meeting in
New York, that every resource
is being used to weed out and deal
summarily with the unfaithful
few"
He said the public is properly
indignant at revelations of male
faction" but "even more indignant
and outraged at the weak and
greedy few, are the great body of
honest, decent, conscientious and
hard-working public servants who
comprise the revenue service"
The scandals that have rocked
the country's tax-collecting system
IN recent months have resulted in
