Stevenson Supports
FEPC; Tells Dixie
Why He Does

Richmond, Vain Virginia's
first mixed political rally, before
a platform party of mixed white
and Negro supporters, Governor
Adlai Stevenson, Democratic can
didate for president, told 5000
people in the Mosque Auditorium
his firm stand on issues of the
Democratic platform. Governor
Stevenson said:
In the broad field of minority
rights, the Democratic Party has
stated its position in its platform,
a position to which 1 adhere.
should justly earn your contempt
If l talked one way in the South
and another elsewhere. Certainly
no intellectually dishonest candi-
date could by an alchemy of cleo
hon, be converted into an honest
President"
On the platform with other dis
tinguished Virginians headed by
Governor Battle were DR.. Harry
Penn, Roanoke, Va, past presi.
dent of Omega Phi Phi frater-
nifty; DR.. J. M. Tinsley, Presi-
dent of the Virginia State NAA-
CP; Roscoe Jackson, Neverett
Eggleston; E. ]. Boisseau, Mrs
Blanch Coles Case; Rev. w. L.
Ransome; Oliver w. Hill, former
Richmond City Councilman, now
member of the Presidents Com
mittee for Contract Compliance;
James Spencer; Ralph v. Dorsey;
Amos Clarke, secretary of the
Richmond Civic Council; Rev.
VIM. B. Ball and w, st. Elmo
Reede, president of the South Side
Democratic clubs.
Governor Stevenson said that
much of the Souths racial prob
lens had resulted from proverty
rather than prejudice.
Economically depressed whites
and economically depressed Me-
groes often had to fight over al
ready gnawed bones. Then there
ensued that most pathetic of
struggles: the struggle of the
poor against the poor"
Further in his address, which
was interrupted forty-four times
by applause, Governor Stevenson
dashed at political abuse of dis
elimination saying, II do not at
tempt to justify the unjustifiable
whether it is anti-Negroism in
one place, anti-Semitism in an
other, or for that matter, anti
Southernism in many places. But
neither can justify self-right-
eousness anywhere. Let none of
us be SNUG on this score, for no.
where in the Nation have we
come to that state or harmonious
amity between racial and relig-
ious groups to which we aspire.
"The political abuse of the
problem of discrimination in en-
ployment, the exploitation Of ra-
cial aspirations on the one hand,
the racial prejudices on the
other all for votes is both a
dangerous thing and a revolving
spectacle in our political life. 1t
will always be better to reason
together than to hurl reCrimina-
! tions at one another.
tions at one another"
Commenting on Governor Stew
ensons speech and the chance of
the Stevenson-Sparkman ticket,
former City Councilman Oliver
w Hill said:
Governor Stevenson greatly IN
| creased his stature in this area.
He made a wonderful impression.
He showed real grasp Of the needs
of the South and a candid ap-
proach to its problems. Everyone
who heard him agreed he is a man
of integrity and vision"

CONSERVATION
 NOTES

The Territorial Board of Alaska Soil Conservation District meets this week in the Soil Conserva- ton office at Palmer.
 This board at present consists of Clarence Hoffman and Howard Estelle of Palmer, and Bert Stimple of Fairbanks. The board is appointed by the Governor. Representatives of each Soil Con- servation Sub-District in the Territory also attend the semi annual meetings. The board sets the policy and provides work plan and program under which the Soil Conservation Service op- crates in the Territory. The S.C.S. can only operate in an era by re- quest and under the direction of such a board.
 One of the basic policies of the board is that of providing guild ance to settlers. For this reason, and with the assistancet of the Bureau of Land Management, over a million acres of climatical- ly suitable land in the Territory have been mapped and classified. Its capabilities for agricultural use have been determined and recorded. This information is on file in the Soil Conservation Ser vice Territorial office at Palmer, recorded on aerial photographs and is available for use by all in- terested parties. The Alaska Soil Conservation District is publiciz- ing this information as fast as funds permit. Plans are being made by board members to con- tinue these surveys as an inven- tory of our agricultural resources.
 There is a great deal of land in this Territory that is suitable for farming. I know, I've walked over quite a bit of it myself. have the detailed soils informa- tion on a lot more of it. The area we have mapped now is less than half the areas we believe to con- tain sizable books of farm land There is lot of mapping yet to do. Some day Alaska farms will feed lot more people than we can imagine. The Territorial Board of the Alaska Soil Conser- vation District is doing it's part to accomplish this purpose.

UNIVERSITY BB TEAM TO GO STATESIDE |;
 PALMER MAN ON TEAM

For the first time since the birth of the University of Alaska, 30 years ago, an athletic team will represent the University in stateside competition.
 This seasons team is composed of boys from Alaska. Among the 12 men who will leave Fairbanks the night of December 19, is Wesley Eckert of Palmer, six foot, one inch forward. Son of MT. and Mrs. Virgil Eckert, Wes is former captain of the Palmer High School basketball team and has been alternating with Joe Ninnis of Juneau at center and forward on this years University team. According to the Players Sketch" Wes is considered a good passer and a fairly consistent scorer. His rebounding is a big help and with more experience he is expected to be one of the bet ter ball players ever turned out at the University of Alaska.
 This season, the University is averaging 72 points per game for seven games against an opponents average 50 points per game. When the team reaches the states it is probable that some of the stateside competition could be in for rough night.
 However, because of the lack of college competition here; the small floors the inexperience and excellent chance of shakes" after never having played before more than a few hundred people, the boys are going to have to play better than they've ever played before.
 The feeling in Alaska, is win, lose or draw, the stateside trip is a fine thing. It will create in- terest in the University, the Ter ritory and the people. Who knows what the future holds. Some day, the University will hold a right ful place in the athletic picture of the United States.
 Tentative games schedule for the stateside trip is as follows: Dec. z2: Willamette University; Dec. 25 or 26: University of Washington; Dec. 27: Pacific Lutheran College; Dec. 28: East ern Oregon State Teachers Col lege; Dec. 30: Whitman College; Jan. 2 and Jan. 3: Whitworth College. The Polar Bears" will leave Fairbanks December 19 and return January 5.

SURVEY PUBLICATION ISSUED BY ELM

Local surveyors will be inter ested in a new publication of the Bureau of Land Management en- titled RESTORATION OF LOST OR OBLITERATED CORNERS AND SUBDIVISION OF SEC TONS, 1852, Secretary of the Interior, Oscar L. Chapman said today.
 The pamphlet is supplement to the manual of surveying in- suructions issued in 1947 by the Bureau of Land Management. The Director Bureau of Land Management, under the supervi- sion of the Secretary of the h. terior, has complete jurisdiction over the survey and resurvey of the public lands of the United States, including the Territory of Alaska.
 After title to a piece is granted, jurisdiction over the property passes to the State; the Federal Government retains its authority only with respect to the public lands in Federal ownership. Where the lands are in private ownership it is a function of the local surveyor to restore lost cor ners and to sub-divide the sec tionS.
 Surveying corners are of great importance to local and national economy, for these are the foun- dations on which rests title to homestead lands, small tracts, and other lands that are to pass into private ownership.
 That foundation on public lands is also necessary before the timber can be harvested, oil and gas and other minerals develop ed, the grazing lands administer ed, or the wildlife and recreation al uses managed in the best in- terest of all the people. Under the law, public lands must be surveyed and the corners on the boundaries of those lands estab- Iished before many of the man. agement phases can be under taken" Director Marion Clawson said.
 He states in the foreWard to the pamphlet:
 We know that it is becoming more and more difficult to re- cover the evidence of the survey corners established many years ago, and that the processes of proper restoration of lost corners sometimes are not clearly under stood. We hope that the material III this pamphlet will serve to answer many of the questions in the minds of those engaged in this work.
 "In addition to the subject matter indicated by the title, we have included an explanation of the methods found by experience to be generally successful in the retracement of the lines of the public land surveys and recovery of evidence of the corners and other marks of those surveys.
 "A limited amount of addition al material has been added in response to frequent inquiries on the subject of meander lines and riparian rights
