UNJUSTIFIED REPRESENTATION

Delegate Bartlett's latest statehood bill makes some radical changes in the provisions for the con- stitutional convention and especially in the number and apportionment of delegates to that convention
 The statehood bill passed by the House of Rep resentatves year provided for 26 delegates eight from each the First and Third Divisions, four from the Second five from the Fourth and one at large.
 Although there objections from Alaskans on this section the statehood bl Delegate Bart let's bill gives 10 delegates to the Third Division five to the First and Fourth and only two to the Second. It provides for nine delegates at-large
 The bill apparently has the sanction and ap- proval of the Alaska Statehood Committee since it was introduced by Delegate Bartlett January 15, 195l immediately following his meeting with the Statehood Committee at Anchorage.
 The bill makes it possible for the Third Divi- sion to completely control the convenon By electing

six the delegates-at-arge in addition to it's own 10. the Third Division would have 16 votes in the convention, majority.
 No other Division could do this, if it elected all of the delegates-at-large.
 We do not believe, the basis of it's showings in mast elections that Third Division is entitled to this representation in the constitutional convention or that it is even entitled chance at getting it.
 The Third Division according to the 1850 census has a population of 58300 In the election october 12 195o there were 6,7O7 votes cast in the Third Division.
 This lack of turnout at the polls may nave been protest against the Territorial status of Alaska, but we doubt it.
 Rather, it indicates to that the Third Divi- sion has 51593 people who unnerested in either our present government or our future government
 Percentagewise, the Third Division made the poor est showing of the four Only 11.3 per cent of the residents went to the polls in October.
 Up in the Fourth Division, 140 per cent of the people were voters. In the Second Division it was 145 per cent and in the First Division it PIT per cent
 We believe there should be a reapportionment of delegates among the Divisions that all delegates should be elected at large This would give the people who are sufficiently interested in their government to go to the polls and vote chance for true repre- sentaton at the constitutional convention

PearsOn's Police Record

Biggest change in SWarthmore, however, is going to be the new town hall, for which-With proper ceremonies-we broke ground. The old town hall, a gaunt, ungainly eyesore, caught fire last year, which reminded me that maybe the police records had burned with it, thereby removing from the clutches of my Senatorial well-wishers the crimin- al evidence they have been so dili- gently trying to find.
 A certain Senator has been eagerly digging into my past of late, and last week an attorney close to the McCarthyites stood up in court and indicated by his cross exam ination of me that they were even trying to track down an incident in Reidsville, N. C.. where, after taking down a Chautauqua tent, I was arrested at am, for taking a sponge bath in the murky southern railroad yards.
 This is a story which I tell every time I go to North Carolina, the last time having been to the North Carolina Press Association in Chap el Hill about a year ago. also get humorous letters from Judge Ira Humphries who presided over the court, and Rev William A. Lam beth, then Methodist Minister in Reidsville, reminding me of my wicked past.
 have also had kidding reminders from attorney P w. GlideWell ot Reidsville, who kindly volunteered to defend me and who predicted that, if l ever became a public figure, my enemies would investi- gate my seamy past.

Grist For Sen. Mccarthy

Presiding at the town hall cere- monies in Swarthmore was Will jam H. Ward, now a top executive of the Du Pont Company, who, like me, worked his way through college by spending his summers on a chautauqua tent crew And I could not help but remember how Bill Ward and Gibson Bradfield, now Gainesville, Ohio's leading banker, once took advantage of the liquid coolness of the fountain in the pub lie square at Wellsboro, Pennsyl- vanla, to remove the all-night grime of takine down a tent.
 I hope Senator Mccarthy doesn't go after them, too!
 At any rate, I was acquitted in Reidsville, N. C., and there was even a little lecture by the judge to the arresting cop that it was the duty of every citizen to keep clean.
 What Senator Mccarthy doesn't know, however, is that the burned records in the old town hall at SWarthmore would have showed that l was also arrested on an en- tirely different charge at an earl ter age about 15) and that time found guilty.
 It was after a college football game. Swarthmore had beaten it's

t7-YEAR-0LD YOUTH GETS LIFE ON PLEA OF GUILTY 10 RAPE

Backbone of America

Well, all these memories and a lot of others came crowding back at that dedication ceremony last week. And among them was the realization that our small towns are the backbone of America, and } that if we ever lose our small-toWn independence, and the community spirit that goes with it, then we might really be in danger of going the way of Russia.
 The tendency of our modern, streamlined nation is to concen- trate to much power in Washington. Most people blame Washington for this, though actually part of the blame belongs at home. For, when some towns can't or do not raise enough taxes to build new school houses or pay their teachers, then they come to Washington for Fed eral aid to education. And when states want new roads, they are eager beavers in tapping the pub lic-roads subsidy in Washington.
 So Washington can't be blamed for exercising the power which To- cal communities abdicate.
 Meanwhile, the most centralized government in the world today is the Soviet, where local communities have almost no power and where only IA men sitting in the Kremlln can throw a nation and the world into war. The more we copy that scheme of things the greater chance for us someday to fit into the So- viet pattern.
 That's why I got a kick out of playing a part in launching a new town hall for the small town where I used to live. That's why every town and city should keep its vigor and independence. That's why the John Pitmans, and the Dillwyn Durnalls and the E. c. Waltons Che caught me ringing the fire belD and the others who serve faith fully on town councils are the na- tion's greatest bulwark against Communism.
 1 As long as our communities have folks like the Joe Seals, for whom I once delivered newspapers; and the Joe Celias, who mend a pair of shoes as carefully as Michelan- gelo painted a fresco; and the J Russell Smiths, friends and teach CTS to mankind, I am not much worried about the country's future.

 In the discussion of the need for government econ- omies attention should not be centered exclusively upon the Federal government U. s.
