 GOVERNOR
 AT I55UE
By BOB DE ARMOND

Whether a House memorial asking that Congress enact legislation to provide for the election of the Gov ernor of Alaska should go to Con- gress as just that, or whether it should be cluttered up with refer ences and requests regarding public lands. control of fisheries, elimina- tion of fish traps and other matters was the issue before the House of Representative during much of it's forenoon session today.
 Rep McCutcheon's motion to table the memorial when it came up for consideration was defeated by a 10-14 vote. All except one of the proposed amendments were de- feated by votes of 10-14 or ll-13.
 An amendment by Rep. Metcalf to include a request that the Secre- tary of Alaska or lieutenant-gov- ernor also be elected was adopted by 1911 vote.
 Amendments to include requests regarding fisheries and fish traps were opposed on the grounds that these subjects had been covered by other memorials to Congress.
 Opposing changes, which they as- serted would confuse the issue, were the 10 Republican members of the House and Democrats Franklin, Degnan, Wells and Madsen.
 Slap at Gruening
 q am beginning to feel that this memorial is intended as slap at Governor Gruening," said Rep. Mc- Cutcheon after several of the amendments had been voted down.
 There is no such intention" re- torted Rep. Barnes, and I do not see that there can be any such feel ing since Governor Gruening him. self dictated very similar memor- ial in 1943 and it was passed by both the House and Senate
 An amendment seeking to strike out a portion of the memorial re- ferring to a bill now before Con- gress was offered and defeated Rep Kay and McCutcheon partic- ularly objected to this portion o1 the memorial, contending that 1t endorses Senator Buffers bill to provide for an elective governor.
 The memorial does not specific ally mention the bill introduced by Senator Butler, whom Kay and McCutcheon termed "the arch en- emy of statehood" A bill for the election of the governors of both Alaska and Hawaii has been intro duced in the House of Representa- tives at Washington by Congress man Miller.
 The memorial was held over for at least one more day when Rep McCutcheon gave notice of his in- tention to reconsider his vote on one of the amendments.
 Bills Passed
 The House this morning passed two of it's own bills: H. B. 118, pro- viding that half of the wolf bounty appropriation for the next biennium is to be expended by the Fish and Wildlife Service for wolf contr0l; H. B. 164, repeating the balance oi the 1949 appropriation for the De-

 Save 2l War Ger mans from CallOws

FRANKFURT, Germany, (R - American authorities this week spared q German war criminals from the gallows, freed Germal steel magnate Alfried Krupp and restored his property rights in the mMti-million dollar Krupp indus trial empire.
 Those saved from death includ- ed six former Nazi S.S. troopers convicted of murdering U. S. sol diers in the infamous 'SMalmedy massacre"
 Eight of the highest executives of the Krupp industrial empire also were freed in a sweeping re- view of all remaining U. Surfer war-crimes cases. But U. $. High Commissioner John J. McClOy and U. S. military commander Gen. Thomas T.. Handy confirmed seven death sentences, including four men of slaughtering more than 100000 Jews. and Gypsies and former SS Maj-Gen: Oswald Pohl, who bossed Hitler's concen- tration camp system.
 %. At the same time U. $. authori- ties modified many other prison terms imposed by American war crimes tribunals.
 The new rulings followed spe- cial consideration of all remain ing war crimes cases, undertaken in the face of a growing German clamor against war crimes yer diets.
 Those saved from death had been in Landsberg prison under sentence for more than four years.

Ask Dismissal z Of CAB Order

WASHINGTON, (P)--Air Trans port Associates, Inc. has asked the US. court of appeals to set aside a civil aeronautics board order dismissing protest against a $75 one-way fare established by Pan American World Airways from Fairbanks, Alaska, to Seattle.
 Air Transport operates service on an irregular basis between Se- attle and points in Alaska. ,,
 The company asked the court to direct the CAB to conduct an investigation to determine if the rate is unreasonable or 'discrim- inatory. .xs
 Air. Transport contends the special Pan American fare ''is without economic justification as it is below the cost of operation; it will hinder the progress of the subsidized air transportation industry and impose heavy, bur- dens upon the United States and its taxpayers in the form of sub- sidy air mail pay" . @

Ban NOn-Defense Aluminium Use

WASHINGTON, (R The use of aluminium in more than 200 non-defense products was banned Saturday.
 - The action was announced by the National Production Authority which said the curtailment was designed to assure adequate SUD- plies for military needs.
 NPT ordered a halt in the use of aluminium, effective April l, for a long list of manufactured goods ranging from cocktail shak- CTS to automobile hardware and venetian blinds.
 NPA simultaneously told alu- minum users that still further cut backs in non-defense production will be slapped on effective June 1. Saturdays action does not af- feet kitchen utensils, such as pots and pans.
 In a companion move, the pro- duction agency also announced new restrictions on non-essential use of natural rubber.
 NPA said its rubber order also provides a cut in the amount of synthetic rubber earmarked for new automobile tires; and an in- crease in the amount of so-called "camel-back" rubber for recap ping ol dones.
 The rubber regulation calls for an per cent reduction in the amount of new rubber available for civilian production during February and March.

Sailor Wins Suit For Injuries On '"Monkey Boat

JUNEAU, R-The Ninth US. circuit court of appeals at San Francisco has upheld a district court finding which had the ef- feet of increasing employer liabil- ity for seamen Injured on "mon- key boats" and tenders, territor- ial labor commissioner Henry Benson reported Monday.
 Benson said the case involved a S3,45O award by the Alaska in- dustrial board to seaman Alfred Peterson for a back injury re- ceived on a monkey boat" in Bristol bay in 1947.
 The Alaska packers association challenged the award in court.
 District judge George Folta ruled that Peterson was not under Alaska workman's compensation act but, as a seaman, should have been under the more comprehen- sive protection of the federal Jones act for Seamen.
 Officials said employees on such auxiliary vessels had been looking to the Alaska workman compen- sation act in injury cases since 1927.
