Leading COPS Optimistic Over 1852 Chances

NEW YORK, (P)-Four lead ing Republicans, divided over presidential candidates in 1852, were united Monday night in their optimism for a party victory next year.
 The quartet, three governors and a senator, lashed the Truman administration in speeches at a $100-a-plate Republican fund raising dinner.
 But they carefully avoided talk ing sides, at least for the evening, in the race for the COP presiden- tial nominations: The four were:
 Cows. Thomas E. Dewey of New York and John Lodge of Connecticut, who are supporting the candidacy of Gen. Dwight D.. Eisenhower;
 Sen. Everett M. Dirksen R-IlD, who is Illinois director for the behind Sen. Taft;
 And Gov. Alfred E. Driscoll of New Jersey, who has maintained silence on the nomination fight.
 Dewey, who was host, said "Al- most the sole hope of survival of freedom on the earth" lies in a COP victory in 1852.
 In his address, Dirksen des- cribed the Truman administra- tion's record as lone of plunder- ing our moral resources, counten- ancing pale royalties, liquidating our vitality at h rome through spending and taxing policies which destroy incentive and the release of human energies"

Ore Purchasing Depot In Alaska Receives Active Consideration

A proposal to establish a pur- chasing depot in the Territory for strategic and critical minerals is receiving active consideration in Washington, the Alaska Develop ment Board was advised thi s week by Howard I. Young, Dep uty Administrator for the Defense Materials Procurement Agency.
 Young, who under recent re- organization is in charge of all mineral procurement for defense purposes, notified the Board that he agreed with it that such a plan is feasible. He said the pro- posal had been turned over to James Douglas who is in charge of the agency's domestic expan- sion program.
 The Alaska Development Board has been attempting ever since the defense emergency arose to have an ore purchasing depot for all strategic and critical minerals established in the Territory. George Sundborg, general man. ager, called on Young while in Washington several months ago in this connection.
 "Under present circumstances, even though Alaska has known deposits of most of these miner als," the Board notified officials in Washington, "the problems of shipping and marketing are suf- ficiently complex as to discour- age many of the rough-and-ready sort of people who comprise our prospectors and small mining op- erators."

 The 19-year-old Negro is still unbeaten as a result of Monday nights victory over Mario Trigo, Mexican switch hitter from Los Angeles. While the cards of the judges, referee and Associated Press all showed Turner winning an easy 26th victory, Gil was a little disappointed.
 The victor weighed 1461s his opponent 14212.

Judge Dimond Rules Anchorage Federal Prison Is Overcrowded
 But Not Cruel and Inhuman"

ANCHORAGE, (P)-They may be overcroWded, but 40 prisoners in the federal jail here are not being held unlawfully, Judge Anthony Dimond ruled in writ ten opinion.
 He denied an application for a writ of habeas corpus made by Ernest Pickens in a test case for 40 prisoners. They charged they were held unlawfully because of overcroWded, unsanitary condi- tiOnS.
 In a nine-page opinion Judge Dimond stressed that the techni- cal legality of detention was not challenged: that the prisoners did not complain of their treatment, but solely on the physical con- dition Of the jail.
 The jail structure itself is an- cient and has outlived its use fulness," the judge wrote. Forty prisoners are crowded into room about 27 feet square. There is no place for prisoners to move about, no recreational facilities. Youths are herded together with hardened criminals. Even those who are mental cases,' unless violent, are confined in the same room"
 The ever-present possibility of fire constituted the feature of inn priSonment which most closely approaches "cruel, inhuman" treatment, the judge wrote.
 He pointed out the room is heated by an ancient stove and the ony exit is through the kit chen, which necessarily is locked. No emergency exit exists.
 Dimond said that if the petition were granted, the "discharge of the petitioner would almost cer- tainly result in filing some 39 other similar petitions by men ac- cused of crimes running from murder to traffic violations"
 The list of charges against pri- soners now being held includes murder, rape, assault, embezzle- ment, white slavery, narcotics possession and many others.
 In concluding the opinion, Di- mond questioned whether con- finement of the men accused of crime, even under conditions de- scribed, should be called "cruel

PIONEERS OF ALASKA A Trihute -
By HOWARD LYING. Territorial Senator

Pioneers of Alaska! What stirring thoughts these words call to mind when contemplating these rugged and women, who, more than any other factor, made possible the Territory of Alaska that you and enjoy Truly their souls must have been possessed of that flaming spirit which only high adventure and conquest of empire could satisfy
 Suffering the severance of family ties, putting behind them the comforts of civilization, facing what to with tranquility and courage, these sturdy men and women gave unstintingly of their brain, brawn and buoyancy of spirit in the subjugaton and initial development of great Terrtory-Anerica's last frontier
 The Pioneer has won an honored place in the hearts of all true Alaskans His valiant spirit staunch courage and complete devotion to the land of his choice, stand forth like shining Iight-a beacon to show the way to those who follow.
 The Pioneers are without equal in telling the story of Alaska's growth and development, because the building of things IS part of their actual experience They speak of what they know. United in common fellowship of rich experience, the Pioneers looked to throughout Alaska for the benefit of their judgment and experience acquired by long years of service to the Territory.
 The Pioneers judgment is not warped by undue pride of se neither is it rooted in the dead issues of the past nor colored by prejudice. They do not be- eve that the wheels of progress should be stopped by the dead hand of minimizing radition-change is not necessarily progress but ability and willingness to grow essential to it. The Pioneers hold fast to the best of the past contemplating the future with an open mind seeking what Is to come with their usual understanding and enthusiasm. One of the qualities that makes the Pioneers great is their constant and unbOunded enthusiasm No organization transcend a lack of enthusiasm in it's membership for there is substitute for enthusiasm.
 When we consider the benefits that have come to largely through the efforts of Aaskas Pioneer men and women, whose generosity, supreme confid- in the future and abiding faith in the land of their choice the guiding principle of their lives we should indeed acknowledge our debt of gratitude.
 The test of experience is the memory it leaves uS We should be constant in honorng these memories of experiences incident to the upbudng of Terri tory by this intrepid band of Pioneers. We should be vgilant to that this greatest of all purely Alaskan organizations does not through apathy sink into oblivion-to that it marches through the years with flying banners representative not only of the storied moulders of the past, but also as vital force in the structure of the future.
