Cordovo AirIines Uses The Family Plan
 For Weekend Fares

aviation history, the Family
 For the first time in Alaskan Plan Fare has been inaugurated by an Alaskan Air Carrier. New low, weekend rates were an nounced by Merle K. Smith, president of Cordova Airlines.
 Patterned after the success full plans in the domestic United States, the Cordova Airlines Family Plan provides fifty per cent discounts to all members of the same family when travel ing with one full-fare member. Children under two years con tinue to be carried free, but now all children under 21 years of age are carried at half fare.
 For instance, from Anchorage to Cordova a husband will pay S13.00 plus tax and his wife and all children over two years of age will pay S650 plus tax. These new low fares are good from midnight Thursday to mid night Monday of the following week.
 The purpose of these new fares, according to MT Smith, is to encourage family travel on the weekends when business travel has heretofore fallen off. It is hoped that more family travel can be encouraged to the interesting Seaport Cities" Seward, Valdez, and Cordova, served by Cordova Airlines in deluxe DC-3 equipment
 MT, Smith also announced that Cordova Airlines exper fenced in May it's greatest traf- fife during any May in it's twenty year history. One thousand reve- nue passengers were carried over the lines extensive route system.

For 30 years trains from Sew ard carrying local passengers and tourists from the ships land ing in the port city, have made a regular stop at Lawing on Kenai Lake. Here is the best col lection of Alaskan historical ob- iects and game trophies in the Territory outside the museum in Juneau. Many trophies were killed by Alaska Nellie" Mrs. Nellie Lawing, h herself. This spot is easily the most famous spot in Alaska and best remem- bered by thousands of tourists who have visited the country during the years.
 Last week kenai Lake rose to the highest point ever re membered and the museum, along with q warehouse build ing, were inundated. Two feet of water covered the floor of the trophy room.
 Mrs. LaWing lives alone. but railroad men working on the section nearby helped remove the largest bears and a huge stuffed lion to safety. The little log building suffered little ac-

tual damage except to the floors. It will be monumental task, however, for the famous little lady to restore the museum without help. Friends from Sew ard will help restore Alaska Nellie's museum after the water has gone down-eight inches still covered the floor Tuesday evening.
 When history books are writ ten and travel "reminiscences of Alaska become common, Alaska Nellie will be the outstanding figure symbolizing the Kenai Peninsula. She has entertained presidents and ambassadors, sen atorS and S e m n. She will never be forgotten, but she should not be neglected now when she needs help.
 "As long as I can stand on my own two feet" she declared defiantly, II will fight for Al aska's biggest trophy collection.
 Mrs. Lawing will celebrate her 80th birthday July 5. She plans to come ito town" to cele- brate and see all her friends. She is greeted and regarded with affection, an absolute type of Alaska pioneer woman, and pc culiarly Stewards own.

However, as q result of very

unhappy with the agreement

owners. the shipowners operating
out of London had failed to fol-
low the very patriotic example

The result is that some of those
ships are, as you know. presently
engaged in trade with Red China.
Those which were flying the

Secretary Dulles, are prohibited
from carrying what England
lists as strategic material.
II realize that in your position
as head Of the Mutual Security
Administration, you deal with
the representatives Of nations

However, in view Of the fact that
the above mentioned 100-150

great number of nations, it will
obviously be difficult to remove
them from this trade in the i'm
mediate future unless it can be
done by voluntary agreement"

The board also recommended
that Mr.. Madigan be "admon-
ished for his failure as Deputy
Administrator to advise the
Housing Expediter Of the inn
propriety" Of applying the CASH
for-leave plan to "a limited
number Of individual employees"
DR.. Flemming concluded that
the action taken by Mr.. Barr was
within his authority, did not con-
stitute an abuse Of discretion
and should be affirmed. He de-
clared the cash-for leave plan
was a "gross improperly" and
should have been rejected.
DR.. Flemming affirmed the dis
ciplinary action taken against
the three employees.
Attorney Scott maintained the
rent agency's cash-for-leave
plan followed the same circum-
stance as 5000 Army cases in
1913. He said the GAO, by not
filing, exceptions in the Army
cases, approved them. He ex-
planned the Army switched per-
manent employees to temporary

ident that it would have been
better for him to have used the
word infringe" instead Of say
ing the Wisconsin Senator had

icy.
That appeared to have ended
the story, except that Senator
Mccarthy was still trying to get
a similar agreement from the
Greek owners Of from 100 to $50
additional ships operating out
of London. His letter to Mr..
Stassen last night in effect
blamed statements by the MSA
chief for the failure of the Lon
don group to make such an
agreement.
Thoughtful Letter Appreciated.
On this, assumption, Senator
Mccarthy asked Mr.. Stassen if
he could see his way clear to
personally assure the Greek
,shipowners operating out of Lon
don that he favors any voluntary
removal of these ships from
trade with Red China, and that
such action would have the
wholehearted approval of this
Government.
Senator Mccarthy told Mr..
Stassen that. with such assur-
ance, he felt confident the Lon
don owners would follow the ex-
ample of those operating out of
New York.

FIemming Is Accused
0fRepudiating Board
In Leave Pay Cases
By WiIIiom A. MiIIen

An attorney charged yester-
day that Acting Defense Mobil-
izer Arthur S. Flemming repudi-
ated his own special board when
he rejected the appeal Of three
Federal rent control officials
who were suspended after they
accepted lump-sum leave pay
mentS.
The attorney, Byron Scott,
former House member from CAL
ifornia, represents two of the
workers. He said the two, John
j. Madigan, administrative as
sistant of the Once Of Rent
Sterilization and Mrs. Linda A.
Matteo, personnel director. have
been notified they must resign
tomorrow or face charges look
ing to dismissal.
Mr.. Scott said the notice came
from Acting o. r. S. Director
William G. Barr. Also involved
is Edwin D. Dupree, jr., the
agency's general counsel, rep
resented by Attorney William
Burt.
No Administrative Appeal.
Mr.. Scott indicated at a press
conference that the case may be
carried to the Court Of Claims
since there is no administrative
appeal from DR.. Trimmings de-
cision. The lawyer said Mr..
Madigan, who has served in vari-
GUS posts, has had ~ years Gov
eminent service. The three en-
ployeS have been on leave with
out pay since March Is.
Mr.. Scott said Controller Cen
eral Lindsay Warren repudiated
the action of his own General
Accounting Office when he held
that the cash-leave plan, in
which So o. r. S. employees par
, ticipated, was improper.
Latest developments in the
case stem from Mr.. Bars
February action in suspending
the trio. They appealed to the
Economic Sterilization Agency,
which DR.. Flemming also heads.
DR.. Flemming set up a board
composed of E. Ray Ballinger,
retired GAO executive, chairman;
Kenneth Vipond, retired Civil
Service Commission executive,
and Edward Exempt, retired
former general counsel of the
Budget Bureau.
In a letter to Mr.. Barr Friday,
DR.. Flemming wrote that the
board recommended that Mr..
Barr be commended for his good
judgment in objecting to the,
pay-for-leave plan in June, 1850.
The board also recommended:

pay, based on actions taken

Finding A Meeting Place
For the Supreme Court
By Doris Kanfer

WHEN THE man who put
w the Supreme" in Su-
preme Court presided for the
first time as Chief Justice, the
Nation heard little about it,
and cared less.
Even the leading Washing
ton newspaper of the day
carried only this brief ac-
count; The justices Of the
Supreme Court have made a
court, the following justices
being present, viz, Marshall,
Cushing, Chase and Wash
ington."
Not even a hint of far
reaching historic events soon
to come.
The year was 1901. The
new Chief Justice was John
Marshall, and the court was
meeting for the first time in
Washington as the seat of the
Government.
MarShall'S appointment
eight days before the opening
session had provoked heated
controversy. But strangely
enough, from a 1853 point of
view, it was not the impor-
tance of the Office nor the
personality of the man which
inspired strong feelings. The
incoming Republican admin
iStration, under the leader
ship of Thomas Jefferson, was
laShing out at John Adams
and his defeated, faction torn
FederaliSt Party for what
they considered another in
dication of a plot" to per-
petuate the presidency by
packing the judiciary before
he left office.
Evening star., 1953-10-18

The powerful position OF
the court is a Well-establiShed
fact of political life today.
But in January, 1901, when
Marshall's appointment was
confirmed, the tribunal was
an oft-ignored Step-siSter in
the governmental Setup.
Elaborate plans had been
drawn and construction be-
gun on imposing buildings for
the legislative and executive
branches, but no arrange
mentS had been made for the
court.
No one had even given it
more than passing thought
until one of the commission
ers working on the Federal
City submitted this suggestion
to Congress in 1898: mo plans
having been agreed upon, or
even proposed, for a judiciary
(building), the sum of $780,
900 is suggested merely for
consideration. The imme-
diate erection of that edif1ce
is not considered so essential
as houses for accommodation
of Congress, of the President
and of executive Offices"
Two weeks before the
scheduled February 2 opening
of the court session, there was
still no meeting place. It was
again a commissioner who,
as though suddenly reminded
that the justices were coming
to town, sent a hurriedly writ
ten note to Congress urging
that a room in the unf1n-
iShed wing of the Capitol be
made available.

This puts Senator Taft at odds
with Secretary of State Dulles,

President Eisenhower himself.
The Ohioan's support of Sem
ate cuts adds steam to action of
the House Foreign Affairs Com
mittee in trimming the foreign
aid program to $4,998, ,000. 900,
The House committee voted the
cuts despite personal plea by
Gen. Eisenhower to members to
approve the full fund.
