Fairbanksans List Troubles Under Territorial Govt.

FAIRBANKS, R-Farmers and businessmen outlined to a Senate committee last night the difficult ies they said they encounter in operating under a territorial form of government.
 They were among 18 witnesses who appeared before the Senate group at the concluding session of the Fairbanks statehood hearing.
 The committee, headed by Sen. Butler will go to Anchorage for another session Monday after weekend trips to Barrow and Nome.
 Thursday nights witnesses, most of whom spoke in favor of statehood, included Dick Swain, a union business agent; Fairbanks Mayor Ralph Rivers, and Cecil Wells, Fairbanks automobile deal CT.
 Swain, homesteader, told the six senators that development of farms in Alaska is extremely diff ficult under the present terri torial form of government. He said statehood would solve AL aska's agricultural problem.
 Rivers testified Congress does n't have the time to solve Alaska's problems. He said industrial firms coming to Alaska feel the instab- ility of being dependent upon Congress for small decisions.
 The Fairbanks mayor cited the need for additional federal judges in the Third and Fourth Divisions of Alaska.
 Wells told the Senate body statehood would open the poten- tial of Alaska in water power, pulp production, mining and farming. He added he believed the territory could support statehood.
 Alaska, with 16O,O0O people, paid AZ million dollars in federal taxes in 1852 while Hawaii paid only 72 million with four times the population, he said.

 The Mainichi said that the fish ing expedition worked out in early April an understanding with fishermen from the States, avoid ing disastrous competition and were able to continue their ac- tivities on very friendly relation with the American fishermen.

Adlai Stevenson, Home From Global Tour, Will Report to Eisenhower

CHICAGO, R - Adlai Steven son, home after a world tour of nearly six months, apparently will give President Eisenhower a re- port of his global tour.
 The defeated Democratic nomi- nee for President in 1852 was asked by reporters if he had been invited to consult with the Presi- dent.
 Before I left" Stevenson said "he Eisenhower asked me to see him when I came home. Every American responds to his Presi- dents requests"
 The former governor of Illinois, who visited some 30 countries since he left the United States last March, discussed his world tour and politics with reporters in news conferences in New York ad Chicago yesterday.
 He told New York newsmen he didn't know whether he would be a presidential candidate in 1856. He also told them that Russia ap- pears to be in retreat in the cold war and that the danger of a major shooting conflict has eased for the present.
 He said the Democrats have excellent" chances in the 1854 congressional aces-better in the House than in the Senate contests. He commented that the Demo cratic party in Congres has given the country the best example of loyal opposition" l."

U. s. Admits Russia Has Made Hydrogen Explosion - But Says
 America Has Two Year Lead

; WASHINGTON, LR- The United States Thursday confirmed Rus sia's boast of having touched off a hydrogen explosion but implied that this country has a two-year lead in the race to perfect the most awesome weapon known to science.
 Whether either country has yet developed a true H-bomb-that is, a device compact enough to be carried aboard a warplare-re- mains unknown to the public.
 The Communist newspaper Pravda said in Moscow late We'd nesday night "the explosion, of a type of hydrogen bomb was car ried out with experimental aim.'
 This prompted Chairman Lewis L. Strauss of the Atomic Energy Commission to announce early Thursday that (A) US. atomic sleuths had in fact detected a Soviet atomic blast eight days ago and then later determined that both conventional and H-type re- actions were involved, and CB) US. atomic tests in the Pacific in both 1851 and 1852 involved similar reactions.
 \ There was no immediate ex- planation of why the United States waited for the Russian boast be- fore putting out it's own announce ment. Pressure has been mounting in Congress and elsewhere for President Eisenhower to tell the world more about the status of the US. atomic weapons program.
 The Moscow announcement said that Soviet possession of the H. bomb offered no cause for alarm among peoples of other countries. It called again for international acceptance of a Russian disarma- ment plan including a ban on atomic weapons.
 The Russian disarmament plan proposes a one-third reduction in conventional arms by major pow CTS and ban on atomic and bac- astrological weapons. Western na- tions object that there is no pro- vision for adequate international inspection to check on whether the projected ban on atomic wea- pons was being observed by Rus sia.
 The United States has long ad- vocated international control over atomic weapons with a system of international inspection.

Scrolls To Enrich
Religious History,
Archeologist Says

MONTREAL - (NC) - Professor
Benjamin Mazar, of the Hebrew
University of Jerusalem, declared
that parchment scrolls recently
found in caves in the Desert of
Judea would give the world an
entirely new literature" on the
years of Our Lords earthly life.
Terming the discoveries "a most
important archaeological find" the
noted archeologist told reporters
that mo changes are expected in
the standard Biblical text because
of these finds, but our understand
ing of the religious life of that
time (the first centuries BIC. and
ADJ will be enriched"
Translations of the scroll texts
are to be published shortly, he said.
