Safe After Marooninq
BY the Associated Press

ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Nov. 20
The University of Alaska's presi-
dent, DR.. Terris Moore, flew to
Elmendorf Air Force Base today
after being marooned overnight
at the mountainside scene of last
Saturdays CHA crash.
A 12-man crew was starting to-
ward the scene in an attempt to
locate the bodies of the So victims
as DR.. Moore landed at pm
(6 pm EST after night 5000
feet up on Mt. Gannett's Surprise
Glacier.
His companion on the mountain
flight, 1t. Thomas S. Sullivan, a
survival expert of the 10th Rescue
Squadron, was believed to have
flown out with him. Details, how
ever, were lacking.
The pair had been marooned on
the mountain overnight because
of unfavorable takeoff winds for
DR.. Moore's light ski-equipped
plane. Supplies were dropped to
them yesterday, and no concern
had been felt.
They had definitely identified
the snow-covered wreckage as that
of the big Globemaster transport
that crashed on a fight from Nc
Chord Air Force Base, Wash, to
Anchorage last Saturday.
DR.. Moore's only report was that
there was no sign of life.

out from the port of Whittier by

finish by helicopter and foot.

care proposal critics called so
cialized medicine"
No dramatic upheavals in fiscal
policy are expected by the banking
fraternity once Cleveland indus
trialist George M. Humphrey takes
over as Secretary of the Treasury.
Any changes that are made might
be delayed. for the most part,
until the Federal budget is some
where near a balance.
If he heeds the opinion of
banking experts, Mr.. Humphrey
may adopt monetary policies
aimed at stabilizing the market
for Government securities and the
value of the dollar. There might
be shift in the public debt to-
ward more long-term issues.
Little Farm Changes.
The new administration poll
cies toward the farmer and to-
ward water and power develop
ment may turn toward greater
emphasis on State and local de-
velopment and less on Federal
programs. But here again, no
eruptions are in sight at this
point.
Gov. Douglas Mckay of Ore
gon, who will become Secretary
OF the Interior in January. has
favored Federal power projects
upon condition States have a say
in their operation. He feels that
private utilities should have prior
Iity in developing water resources,
with the Federal Government
stepping in only when the job is
too big for private capital, and
then only in cooperation with
the States.
Gen. Eisenhower expressed
much the same views during the
campaign. And both the Presi-
dent-elect and Gov. Mckay have
voiced opposition to a Columbia
Valley authority.
Farmers received repeated as
surances from Gen. Eisenhower
that farm price supports will be
continued-to the extent that
Democratic presidential nominee,
Adlai E. Stevenson, accused the
general of taking over the Demo-
cratic farm platform. Gen. Els

Agriculture, Ezra T. Benson of
Salt Lake City, says he agrees with
the generals views on farm policy.

But the G. o. P. long has in

emphasis on building up home and
foreign markets for farm products
so that there need not be such
heavy reliance as the Roosevelt
Truman regime placed on SUBJ
sides and production controls.
Mr. Benson is a specialist in agri-
cultural marketing, so increased
emphasis on expanding domestic
and overseas markets is expected
in the new administration.

Nests of Reds McCorron Says

Of Vassar, noted that she became
president in 1916, after the period
referred to by Dr.. Dodd.
She said, however, that she had
no knowledge of any "cells" on
the Vassar campus, and thought
it "manifestly unfair" to link
college faculty members to Com
munistS because "at one time or
another, one or more of the
faculty members of that period
might have spoken up in favor OF
Russia"
Dr.. Henry Noble MacCracken,
Vassar's president emeritus who
headed the college during the
period involved, before 1914, said
he had no knowledge of any Com
munist Party connections of Vas
sar faculty members then.
1T is possible under the law
of averages" he said, that there
were a few persons on the Vassar
campus who might have been
communistic government sympa-
thizers."

Smith College Dean Helen Ran

There is no Communist teach
ing at Smith College. AS far as
we know there are no Communists
on the faculty.
"As for Bella Dodd's testimony
we can say nothing until her
charges are made specific as to
persons and dates.
"One cannot comment upon or
repudiate those kinds of general
accusations in the dark"
In New York. a spokesman for
New York University recalled that
Chancellor Henry T. Heald issued
a statement at the time of the
hearing saying he had no way of
knowing about the situation de-
scribed by DR.. Dodd because he has
been in his post only 10 months.
DR.. Heald added. the spokesman
said, that there are no Commu-
nists on the staff of the university
to his knowledge and that if any
were proved to be on the staff they
would be dismissed.
A spokesman for Columbia Uni
versity declined to comment.
Michigan Scouts Charge.
In Ann Arbor, Mich, a spokes-
man for the University Of Michi-
gan, said there was no indica-
ton OF any Communist Party
unit on the campus now. He
added that in the late thirties and
early forties there was some in
dication of Communist activity
on the campus. At present, he
said. two groups known as left
wingers have failed to obtain uni
versity recognition because they
have been unable to muster suf-
f1cient members.

testimony.

and Long Island Universities could
not be reached by the Associated

Senator McCarran pointed out
that Mrs. Dodd and other wit
