Moscow Congress May Be To Replace 60 Key Leaders

WASHINGTON, (PD = Prime Minister Stalin's motive in calling a formal Communist party con- gress in Moscow Oct. 5 may be to replace 60 key Communist leaders who have died or been purged.
 The Voice of America, official State Department radio, hinted that this may be Stalin's motive in summoning Communist bosses together for the first time in 13 years. It was the first thing ap- proximating any official com ment from the State Department on this move by Stalin.
 A broadcast commenting on Moscow's announcement said of the 139 full central committee members:
 "At least 26 have Gin the past 13 years) died or been purged. Another 34 have not been men, toned in the Soviet press in the last few years.
 This indicates the high mort ality rate - political as well as literal-attached to membership in the central committee"
 The Voice broadcast, special commentary by analyst Harry Fleischman, was lbeamed to Rus sia and Iron Curtain countries and was featured in nearly all foreign broadcasts Thursday.
 Tn commenting on the Russian plan to abolish the Politburo, it said "one thing can be safely pre- dicted" even when this happens:
 ''The Soviet Union will remain a dictatorship, run by Josef Stalin."

Uranium Bearing Minerals Found I'm Wales Area

WASHINGTON, (P)-Secretary of the Interior Chapman today announced the finding of varying amounts of the secondary ura- nium mineral Zeunerite on the Seward Peninsula in Alaska, just across the 36-mile wide Boring Strait from Russian Siberia.
 Geological Survey officials said such secondary uranium miner als could be used as source for uranium for atomic bombs.
 Chapman said the finds were made by the Alaskan Geology branch of the Geological Survey in investigations on behalf of the Atomic Energy Commission.
 A Geological Survey official told a reporter uranium is being sought throughout Alaska.
 Several prospects were exam- ined and varying amounts of Zeunerite were found in these" Chapman said. Although no pri- mary uranium minerals were found, it is possible that some occur below the zone of oxida- tion."
 The discovery was made at Brooks Mountain on the Seward Peninsula. The mountain is about 25 miles directly east and inland from the point of Cape Prince of Wales. The point of the Cape is the nearest United States terri tory to Siberia.

Screaming Wind Plays Tricks in B.C. Town

NANAIMO, B. C.,R)-A wind which residents say screamed like a jet fighter played violent tricks along Nanaimo'S waterfront Fri day but apparently did no ser ious damage.
 One waterfront resident said the wind lifted rowboat into the air and then set it down on the beach undamaged.
 John Stephenson said he was working on a float and had to grip the blanks to keep from being blown into the water.
 Reports to police said that along the waterfront, at least, the roaring whistling" sound contin- ued for about 115 minutes.
 Two old sheds in garden facing the beach were uprooted and smashed during the brief blow.

Gen. Eisenhower Hits Communists In Government
(BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS,

any time in our history" Calling for a strong warning to the Rus sians from the American govern ment, he said:
 eve must tell the Soviets with cold finality that never shall we rest content until the tidal mud of aggressive Communism has re- ceded within its own borders"
 The Republican presidential nominee made the statements in a speech prepared for delivery before fellow American Legion naireS at their national conven- tion in New York's Madison Square Garden.
 His Democratic opponent, Gov. Adlai Stevenson, was in Spring field, H., awaiting his turn on the Legion rostrum. He addresses the convention Wednesday. Refers 10 Government Corruption
 Eisenhower'S Legion speech bore non-political tag, but some passages appeared to refer to charges the Republicans are mak- ing against the Truman admins tration. For instance:
 "Let us bend ourselves to end corruption in public office, at corruption at every level of gov ernment. In world opinion and in world effectiveness the United States is no better, no more eff cient, no stronger than the moral firmness of it's public officials"
 And he hit at Communists in government:
 Although we must say it in sadness and shame, as well as in anger, they have succeeded in penetrating our own ranks, even at times into our government"
 ''The assassins of character and the promoters of witch hunts are dangerous to our freedom at home and to our world position of leadership .. :"
 Comments on Mccarthy
 Eisenhower named no names in his speech, but at a news confer ence on Friday, when asked about Sen. Joseph R. Mccarthy of Wis consin, he said he would support Mccarthy for reelection "as a member of the Republican organ ization" but would not give blan- ket endorsement to anyone "who does anything I believe to be un- American in methods or proceed ures."
 No Cabinet Commitments
 Talk of possible cabinet ap- pointments nettled Stevenson. On the heels of rumor that some of his associates had approached, Sen. Estes Kefauver of Tennessee about the office of attorney gen.. eral, Stevenson got out a state ment saying:
 Neither I nor any authorized associate of mine has made com mitments to anybody on any po- sition whatsoever I do not intend to enter into such discus sions until after the election; and no associate of mine is authorized to do so on my behalf"

Aluminium Co. of America Will Build $4O0 Million Shelter Plant
 On Yukon River Near Skagway

ANCHORAGE, (P-Aluminum Company of Americas proposed 400 million dollar aluminium smelling project at Skagway was hailed today by Alaska's gover- nor as the most important event in the territory since it's purchase from Russia"
 Gov. Ernest Gruening told newsmen at Mckinley National Park Saturday that Alcoa's prof ect, which signals the birth of a modern new city in the Taiya Valley with an expected popula- ton of 10000 overshadows the three greatest events in Alaska's history under American owner ship.
 'The three greatest events were Alaska's purchase in 1867, the dis covery of gold in 1898 and the establishment of pulp mill at Ketchikan, which is now taking place." Gruening said.
 Will Bring New Developments
 Gruening likened the project to a pebble dropped in pond, with nipples of development extend ing out from the center to bring in new developments"
 Noting that the project, consist ing of power and transportation facilities and an aluminium smelt- ing plant, will employ some 4,000 workers with an annual payroll of between q and 29 million dol lars, Gruening said the project is recognition by private capital that Alaska is good place for large investments.
 Referring to the fact that Alcoa plans an entirely private devel- opment with private capital, with no government aid, Gruening Said:'
 Government Must Keep Out
 eve must keep government out of this entirely. The function of government must be zero except to stand by to be of any assist ance to clear obstacles that may develop, such as land problems and road building problems"
 Robert M. Mckinney, assistant Secretary of the Interior, also had high praise for the project.
 ''It is high mark for the de- partment and great step for the development of Alaska and to- ward statehood" Mckinney said.
 Alcoa vice president Leon Hick- man said everybody gains" by the project, nobody loses. We will take nothing from the ground such as mineral that can be de- pleted =. we will take nothing from the sea, such as fish .. ours will be an additional economy gain for Alaska"
 Modern Town of 10000
 Hickman outlined Alcoa's plans for a modern community, with all facilities for comfortable iv- ing for population of 10000.
 ''It will be no labor camp pro- position" he said. "We don't want a company town. There will be nothing in the nature of absentee operation for this town. People will move in and settle down. The manager will live there and make all basic policy decisions"

Those two original stars Of "Her

comedy.
Miss Gabor herself is one of
the loveliest decorations the sum-
mer theater has discovered in
years, of course.
Even DevaPs weary romantic
dialogue, which she reads in some
thing of a high pitched mono

physical radiance. Nor can the
quality of the play conceal the
truth that she wears one of the
most appropriately seductive ward
robes ever seen in rural theater
There is no pro-
gram credit for Miss Garbor's
costumes in the role of SimoneE
LaGorce but this anonymous
human and Miss Gabor's parents
give the production it's two authen-

Mis- Gabor's major colleague in
Olney's opener is Rex Partington

ing CIllS week at the Olney theater
in Jacques Deval's Her Card
board Lover" The premise of
this venerable Gallo comedy is
that Miss Gabor, as the heroine
Is desperately bearing a torch for
husband who is a notorious
philanderer.
This is silly and Miss Gabor is
not sufficiently skilled as an
actress to make it appear other
wise. Even less qualified to create
any such illusion is Ward Costello
in the role of the promiscuous
husband.
The effect of this is to make
Her Cardboard Lover" funny in
a way that Deval never intended
and this is traditionally an infa-
NOUS thing to overtake even a
summer theater comedy.
Another effect is to concentrate
the plays single dramatic moment
into the most patrician strip-tease
anyone ever saw. This occurs in
the second act in that sequence in
Slmone's boudoir when she pre-
pares to keep a date with the hus-
band she thinks is coming back to
her. 1t is moment of elegance
that almost redeems Her Card
board Lover" from it's essential
emptiness and the whitening ef-
fectS of time.
In this simple act. Miss Gabor's
blond radiance compared favor
ably with that of the June moon
rising just across Highway 1876.
X X X
The trouble with Her Card
board Lover" as this years Olney
opener is that it looks lamentably
exactly like a summer theater
package show. These are the pro- |
auctions put together to give a
glamour mink. or a relaxed male |
actor, summer circuit tour. They
are directed and acted as if no
one particularly cared, including
the audience.
There may be some truth in this
assumption. including its reference
to the audience. At the beginning
OF summer, however, audience
standards are higher than they !
will be later in the season.
