Winners and Losers

In settling their argument over the south
east leg OF MaryandS new Route 240 in it's
approach to Washington, the National Capital
Planning Commission appears to have won
some points and the Maryland Roads Commits
sion seems to have won others. Maryland tax
payers and the owners of residential property
in the area to be traverSed by Route 240 have
won nothing They may have lost.
The extent of their losses will be clarified
when Maryland'S Roads Commissioner Russell
H. Mccain has completed engineering studies
to determine the course to be followed by Route
240 in order to comply with the National Capt.
tai Planning Commissions prohibition against
use of portions of Rock Greek Park in Maryland
as right of way. AS these studies progress
The Star will make every effort to keep its
readers Informed of the picture. They may then
determine for themselves whether their own
interests are best served by the original plans
of the Roads Commission or by the revision of
those plans brought about by the National
Capital Planning Commissions objections.
The revised plans contemplate the confis-
cation of more private, residential property
than would have been necessary under the
original plans of the road builders. This will
mean greater inconvenience to property owners
and greater expense to the taxpayers. These
points should be weighed in relation to the use
VI PARK property 1Or highways. Inc planners
approve such use if they approve the highway
to be built. They disapprove such use if they
disapprove the highway.
The National Capital Planning Commits
sion's objections to the use, by Route 24O, of
certain sections of Maryland's Rock Creek Park
are in reality based on its opposition to the plan
of the road builders to bring Route 240 down to
the EaSt-West Highway. 1t is doubtless true that
when that is done by the road builders, public
demand ten or twelve years later will force
the construction of another freeWay through
the District Rock Creek Park. The highway
builders, both in Maryland and the District of
Columbia, are convinced that the requirements
of future traffic make that step inevitable.
They see no point in shying away from what
they believe the future will bring. In the mean
time, the cost in dollars and cents of shying
away from this prospect deserves more study by
those who will pay the bills.

agricultural industry is bright and healthy If
the farmers themselves avoid being trapped

Return of Won PouIus

After decade of imprisonment in Russia,
former Field Marshal Friedrich PauluS-eom-
mander of Hitler's Inflated legions at Stalin-
grads now back in East Germany with
mission to perform The mission, which pos
sbly may include puppet military duties, is to
sing the praises of the "peace-loving" Soviet
Union and to spread propaganda among his
countrymen in favor of everything the Kremlin
is doing to achieve European and world domi-
nation.
Thus, according to statement attributed
to him by the Moscow press, Paulus Che has
dropped the aristocratic won" from his name)
has hailed his repatriation with these words:
"I came to the Soviet Union as an enemy, but
am leaving as friend. am convinced that
the only real path to the peaceful reunification
of Germany and peace in Europe is an agree
ment between the Germans themselves and
the conclusion of peace treaty based on the
Soviet note to the Western powers That is
why I decided returning to my fatherland
to spare no effort in order to facilitate reaching
this sacred aim"
In other words, Paulus sacred aim" is to
propaganda for the idea of German settle
ment on Soviet terms-a settlement that would
rule out genuinely free elections and pave the
way for reunification of sort that would even
tually enable the Kremlin to convert the now
COuLGTy 1uCO dIOCl1GI 1LcO SdCC1ACS
The former field marshal has also suggested,
in an oblique but favorable manner, that the
people of Germany if they are to fulfill their
destiny, must cultivate the closest friendship
with the U. S. S. R.. allying themselves with it
on some future day in a kind of super Ribben-
trop- -Molotov pact.
Considering his long captivity-a bitter
period in which he was denied reunion with
his family and in which his wife died far from
him-PauluS may have taken this line only to
win his release from Russia, and he may there
fore fail to follow through on his professed
sacred aim." On the other hand, having been
subjected to intense Soviet "indoctrination"
during his 10 years war prisoner, it is not
improbable that he really means what he says
now and that the East Germans will hear lot
more from him. Such prospect, however, may
be viewed with equanimity, for it can hardly
be described as much of threat.
This is so because most of PauuS' country
men, on both sides of the Iron Curtain, remem-
Der him with marked disfavor as the COM
mander who squandered immense quantities
of German blood even after he knew that he
had lost at Staingrad and that such expendi-
ture was worse than useless. AS a Soviet apollo
gst, therefore, he is poorly equipped to accom-
pliSh anything among the East Germans, who
have made clear-through their summer upriS-
ing-the depth of their loathing for the Red
totalitarians. The Kremlin is hard up in the
propaganda field if it must recruit a man like
this to preach for it.

GOVERNMENT JOB A PRIVILEGE

It is official that government job is not a right but privilege.
 By executive order, President Eisenhower has cut off the subversive federal workers retreat behind the Fifth Amendment. Any employe of Uncle Sam who refuses to testify before congressional committee the wellworn ground that it may tend to ncrininate him may now be summarily fired
 It is important to note that, as citizen, he may still testify if he wishes to his Constitutional privilege. But the Constitution intended to offer anybody job protection
 As matter of fact it seems pretty silly to think that Presidential directive required to stffen the backbone of bureau chief sufficiently to fire worker who refused to say whether not he member of conspiracy to destroy country by force and violence.

Review of Mining POtentialities Of
 Seward Peninsula
By HOWARD LYING Territorial Senator

The largest single mining dis trict within the Cape Nome Min ing and Recording Precinct has been known through the years as the ''Kougarok," and is approxi- mately 65 miles long and 30 miles wide. The gold-bearing Kou- garok River traverses this region from north to south, emptying into the Kuzitrin River near Bunker Hill. Bunker Hill is about 65 air miles north from Nome, and is the terminus of the narrow-gauge Kougarok Railroad which mean ders along up through the Nome River valley and the Kuzitrin, 802 miles from Nome to Bunker Hill.
 A network of roads runs north from Bunker Hill serving the camps along the Kougarok River and it's many gold bearing tribu- taries. The main road is 40.5 miles in length ending at Taylor in the upper Kougarok.
 In addition to this main trunk road, there is a 612-mile branch road linking Coffee Creek with Bunker Hill. There is also a five mile branch road that connects up with the recently completed DC-3 airfield recently completed by contractors Johansen & Wurhman for the Territorial Department of Aviation. This field, known as Quartz Creek Field, is $500 feet in length and 15O feet wide, and serves the lower Kougarok area.
 A short 212-mile road links up Dahl and Quartz Creeks, and their tributaries, with the road system.
 The Kougarok Railroad has recently been abandoned by the territorial government, it's custo- dian and caretaker for many years. The plan of replacement calls for a road from Nome to Bunker Hill to hook up with the present Kougarok road system.
 A start has been made on this road under the supervision of the Alaska Road Commission. John Cooley, Second Division superin- tendent, reports the road, at the end of this seasons work, is 13 miles on it's way, and describes it as the start of the Nome-Fairbanks Highway.
 A part of this great mining dis trict are two excellent hot springs that have served the Kougarokers and people of Nome over the years. One, called Serpentine Hot Springs, is located a few miles northwest of Taylor. The other, Pilgrim Hot Springs, is situated in the extreme southern end of the valley, not far from Solomon Lake.
 With the completion of the Nome-Bunker Hill Road, both of these hot springs will become va cation and tourist attractions com parable to those weH-advertised hot springs in the Fourth Division out from Fairbanks: Manley, Che na, and Arctic Circle Hot Springs.

The administration repeatedly
has been considering asking for an
extension Of the excess potts tax
to help ease an expected budget
deficit in the year beginning
July /.
COP members Of the ways and

situation privately at q recent
meeting, several of them reported
today, and reaffirmed a decision
to lire up unanimously against any
extension Of the levy.

The COP committee members
said similar strong opposition
awaits any proposal to raise reg

4 substitute for the excess profits
tax--another idea reported under
study at the Treasury.
However, Sen. George (D-Ga),
