Reds Suggest Conference
Aimed At Avoiding
Border Air Clashes

BONN, Germany, Up - Allied
officials Friday studied Soviet
suggestion for a British Russian
conference aimed at avoiding air
clashes along the East-West Dor

from American or French quar-

The suggestion was made last
night by Gen. VASTLY Chuikov,
Soviet commander in Germany,
in otherwise rejecting a joint pro-
test from the Western occupation
powers against hostile action by
Soviet fighter planes toward three
British aircraft last week.

Will Meet Half
Way Any Russian
Peace Proposal

WASHINGTON, R- President
Eisenhower said Thursday the
new Russian regime will never be
met less than half way by his adj
ninistration in any effort toward
world peace.
But he said the Soviet Union so
far has made no formal peace
overture.
The President also told his news
conference that he sees in the re-
cent series Of Communist aircraft
attacks on American planes no
change in the intentions of the
Soviet Union.
Eisenhower also:
I Reiterated that tax reduction
must be deferred until a balanced
budget is in sight.
2 Declared he sees no point in
questioning the loyalty Of the ma
TONS churches. This was in reply
to a question as to whether he
favored an investigation Of pos
sible Communist influences in
the churches.
2 Said his nomination Of Chas.
E. Chip Bohlen to be ambassa-
dor to Russia seems to him to be
very good appointment. The
President made that remark in

the administration to press for
Senate approval Of the nominal
ton.
a Declared he feels this nation

hope to get more national defense
for less money by eliminating
waste and duplication.
< Said government staffs have
been studying a proposal for au-
thorization Of big increases in
military and civil defense, but
that no conclusions have been
reached.
e Said he would not want to
do anything unnecessarily provo
cative at the moment with res
pect to any move in the United
Nations to brand Russia an ag-
gressor in Korea.

Legislature Passes
Investigating
Committee Bill
BY jim HUTCHINSON

JUNEAU, Up - Legislative ac-
ton was completed Thursday
afternoon for creation of a six
member legislative committee to
investigate all levels of terri
torial government.
The Senate passed the bills 14-2
with only Democrats VIM. Beltz
and VIM. Egan, against.
Bills to abolish the Employment
Security Commission and create
a new one also won Senate APP
prevail.
The bills previously passed the
House but the new commission
bill must return there because
the bill was amended.
Senators voting against repeal
were Republicans John Butrovich,
A. F. Cole, Elton Engstrom and
Percy Ipalook; and Democrats
VIM. Beltz and VIM. Egan.
The repeal has been labeled by
Democratic critics as a "bill to
abolish Ralph Rivers from the
commission. Rivers, Fairbanks
mayor and former Democratic at
torney general, is the lone remain
ing member of the commission.
Before enactment of Rep. Her
aid Stringer's investigating com
mittee bill, with $4,000 appro-
priation, Butrovich told the Sen
ate, ''This is not witch hunt"
proposal, but it designed to bring
thorough examination of how the
government can be improved.
Sen. Howard Lying declared that
if phases Of the territorial govern
ment ''are not good, we want to
inform the people about what is
going on. This is the only way we
can do it. No honest territorial
employee has anything to fear"
The investigating and examin-
ing committee would be enpow-
cred to employ special investi-
gators and examiners. The sweep
ing scope of it's authority is re-
Elected in the title of the bill
setting forth its purposes "of in
quiring into official conduct, adj
ministrative acts and operations
Of all territorial boards and COM
missions and elected and appoint
ed officials and employees, to in
stitute proceedings in court and
to cooperate with the Attorney
General of the United States, the
FBI and other federal agencies"
The House gave final legislative
approval to a bill providing a new
wing to the Pioneers Home at
Sitka.

House Votes For
100000 Matching
Fund For AVA
By JAMES HUTCHINSON

JUNEAU, R - One-sid votes
brought death to a bill for a ter
ritorial 4O-hour work week in the
Senate Wednesday as the House
was approving a 100000 appro-
priation for tourist promotion.
These were the highlights of the
legislative afternoon. The House
also wrestled with provisions of a
bill to extend veterans benefits
to those who have been in mill
tary service recently. The Senate
busted itself writing amendments
into bills for knocking the lone
remaining member - a Democrat
- off the Employment Security
Commission and reconstituting it.
None Of these bills reached a final
vote, however.
Senate Tables 40-Hr. Work Week
The Senate voted 1873 to Will
liam Beltz' 40-hour work week
bill after grocers and restaurant
operators testified it would mean
paying time and a half for the
sixth day they would have to re
main open. They said also it
would necessitate higher costs to
the public. The only votes against
tabling the bill were cast by
Beltz and Sen. William Percy Ipa-
look, Kotzebue.
The House voted 20-2 for the
$4,000 appropriation for the AL
aska Visitors Association on
81 matching basis. To get full
benefit Of the appropriation, firms
interested in tourist promotion
would have to raise $4,000. The
appropriation for the present BIZ
ennium was on a straight match
ing basis.
Debate over the measure found
the strange situation Of the Re
publican speaker, George Misco-
witch Of Fiat, and the Democratic
floor leader, Wendell Kay of An
chorage, speaking in agreement.
Kay succeeded in writing in an
amendment to restrict the expen-
diture Of territorial money to ad-
vertising and promotion in printed
form after jim Chadwick, associa-
ton manager, appealed for the
right to spend the money for radio
and television opportunities.

The Dodgers current Western
trip is beginning to look more
and more like the triumphant
tour of a monarch through the
provinces.
It's still theoretically a pen
nant race in the National League.
but the standings show it's more
theory than race. The Dodgers
lead by eight games over second
place Milwaukee, with 81 left to
play for each club.
The Dodgers could still blow
it, but it wouldn't be easy.
For example, suppose Brooklyn
which has won Is of it's last II
would suddenly fall off to a
500 pace, losing as many as it
wins the rest of the way.
If that happened, Milwaukee
would have to win 81 of it's re-
naming 81 games to gain tie.
That's a $40 clip, considerably
faster than the Braves have
moved so far. Third-place Phila-
delphia would have to win Al of
its remaining 81. New York also
has 81 left and would have to
win AZ, while st. Louis would
have to take Al of it's last SO.
No Signs of Dropping.
The Dodgers, of course, show
no signs of dropping down to a
500 level. They didn't collapse
that much two years ago when
they let the Giants catch them
after leading by 1872 games early
in August. Even in that fiasco

Big Redskin Linemen
Get First Taste Of
Contact Work Today
By Lewis F. Atchison
StoT Stoff Corvespondent

LOS ANGELES, July 30.-The
Redskins overstuffed linemen
got a chance to throw their
weight around today in the first
contact work of training camp.
A line scrimmage featured the
morning drill and ends and line
hackers were scheduled to join
in at the matinee session.
Defensively, Coach Curley Lam
beau can field one of the biggest
lines ever seen in pro football
and even though he is juggling
the personnel from day to day,
it's a foregone conclusion that
the 1853 line will be heavier
than last years. If it isn't a lot
better, Lambeau will be disap-
pointed.
One f1ve-man defensive unit of
more than average weight would
include 275-pound Jim Ricca and
Rookie Walt Ashcraft. 260, at the
ends; 263-pound Paul Liscomb
