Ike Willing to Meet Stalin's Successor.
 alfWay to Moscow

WASHINGTON, R- President Eisenhower expressed willingness Thursday to go half way to Mos cow to meet whoever succeeds the dying Joseph Stalin in Russia's seat of power. He attached the same conditions he set out a week ago for a possible meeting with Stalin.
 In a news conference statement, the President said he did not know what might come from the inn pending shifts in Russia and de- scribed the United States attitude of the moment as very definite watchfulness.
 In his third news conference as President, Eisenhower also:
 l. Said it is up to Congress now to work out the wording of a resolution condemning Russia for enslaving free peoples.
 2. Blasted the current wave of anti-Semitism behind the Iron Curtain as deplorable and heart breaking.
 3. Reaffirmed his stand in favor of the states having full owner ship of offshore lands within their historic borders.
 4. Expressed opposition to ex- tending the draft from the present "A months to 30 or 36 months, as suggested by Gen. James A. Van Fleet.

Ceorgi Malenkov Succeeds Stalin as Prime Minister

LONDON, R - Moscow radio announced Georgi M. Malenkov has been appointed chairman (prime minister) of the council of ministers of the Soviet Union. This is the post that Stalin had at the time of his death.
 Moscow radio also announced that Marshal Klementi Voroshilov had been appointed chairman of the Soivet presidium in place of Nikolai Shvernik. This is equi- valent to the presidency of the Soviet Union.
 The broadcast added that l.. P. Beria, V. M. Molotov, Nikolai Bull ganin and Lazar M. Kagonovich have been appointed deputy chair men of the council of ministers.
 Beria also was named minister of the interior, has been named the USSR's permanent LIN. rep resentative, while Bulganin also was named minister of war, the broadcast added.
 This means that Malenkov suc- ceeds Stalin in at least one of his two main jobs. Stalin's other big job was as general secretary of the Communist party of the So- Viet Union.

Senate Calls Pentagon to Clear up Confused Reports On Korea Ammo Supplies

WASHINGTON, R- The Senate Armed Services Committee yes terday called on top Pentagon of ficials to clear up the confusing and conflicting" reports as to am- intuition supplies for Korea.
 From Gen. James A. Van Fleet the committee heard there were serious ammunition shortages even on hand grenades - during the whole time he was in Korea. But other military men depreca- ted both the extent and nature of shortages.
 In this situation, Chairman Sal tonstall R-Mass) announced that the Armed Services Committee is asking that Gen. J. Lawton Col lins, Army chief of staff, and civ ilian military chiefs come before it next Tuesday.
 In Seoul, Gen. Mark Clark, LIN. Far East commander, said there had always been enough ammuni- ton whenever we needed to shoot it-in any quantity"
 He said there had been "a ra- tioning of certain types of artill- cry ammunition" and observed that "there is always a shortage in the minds of the people who want to shoot it."
 The Eighth Army has enough ammunition to stop any all-out offensive by the enemy, he added.

Memorial in Favor of School Bond Enabling Act Introduced in Senate


 JUNEAU, R-The school bond issue enabling act issue on which voters expressed opinion at the polls in the general election made it's debut in the Alaska legislature Thursday.
 Sen. William Egan O-Valdez) introduced a memorial to Con- gress in the upper chamber asking authority for the territory to issue up to $12,5OO,OOO in bonds for school buildings.
 The proposition has been men toned in debate on the Senate floor but it was the first time the measure had been introduced in the legislature following the cleo ton referendum.
 The memorial cites a popular vote of nearly five to one in favor of asking bond authority. Under the Organic Act, the territory can't bond itself without Congress sional approval.

Eisenhower Moves to Lift 10Os of Policy-Making Jobs From Civil Service Class

WASHINGTON, R- President Eisenhower has moved to lift sev- eral hundred policy-making jobs out of the Civil Service class so his administration can fill the posts with new appointees.
 A White House announcement today said Eisenhower ordered the drafting of a directive "to pro- vide the heads of agencies with greater freedom in determining who should occupy top jobs now under Civil Service.
 The announcement said the ac- ton twill not involve more than several hundred positions"
 It was not clear how many per- sons will be fired outright, if any are. Some affected - holdovers from the Truman administration - might revert to jobs they held earlier under Civil Service or be switched to other duties in the government.

Party Lines Split As Senate Votes
 lO-6 For Repeal of Property Tax
 Law After Five Hours Debate

JUNEAU, R- Alaska's Senate voted 10-6 Thursday night for re- peal of the territorial General Property Tax law.
 Party lines were split wide open on the vote, which finally came at 6:45 p.m., after five straight hours of testimony and debate.
 The bill for repeal of the most controversial tax law ever put on the territorial books previously passed the House by a 20-4 vote. It now returns there for final leg islative action on non-controver- sial amendments written into it by the Senate.
 The Senate action left as the big issue what will happen if the governor vetoes the measure, as expected. He recommended strong ly against repeal of the law in his message to the legislature.
 Six votes would be enough to block a legislative attempt to over ride a veto if the six lawmakers voting against the repealer were to hold firm.
 Voting for repeal of the General Property Tax were Republicans Doris Barnes of Wrangell; A. F. Coble, w. l.. Lhamon and Mike Stepovich of Fairbanks; Paul Rob- ison and John Gorsuch of Anchor age; Gerrit Snider of Wasilla; and Charles Jones of Nome; and Demo- crats Mark Jensen Of Douglas and Howard 'Lyng of Nome.
 Voting against repeal of the law were Democrats William Beltz, Haycock; William Egan of Valdez; and James Nolan of Wrangell; and Republicans John Butrovich of Fairbanks; Elton Engstrom of Juneau; and Percy Ipalook of Kot- Zebue
 The repeal won't make any diff ference to residents of cities and school districts which have been the collection agents for the tax. In effect, it has been their own and they will continue to collect it as their own.
 The Senate echoed to oratory, contradictory figures, pleas for mining claim owners who were required to pay a tax on non-pro- ductive holes in the ground and pleas to hold up action on repeal until the circuit court of appeals in San Francisco returns verdict in case challenging the validity of the law. Attorney General Ger aid Williams advised the senators

STALLN DIES
 OF HEART ATTACK
By EDDY GILMORE

and THOMAS P. WHITNEY
 MOSCOW, R - The body of Prime Minister Joseph V. Stalin, felled by stroke and heart fail ure at 73, was removed to Mos cows beautiful Hall of Columns today to lie in state.
 A funeral service befitting one of the most powerful men in his tory was in preparation.
 The Soviet s'man of steel" who ruled over sixth of the earth's surface and dominated third of it's people, died Thursday night in the Kremlin four days after being stricken. Death came at $50 pm. G0:50 am. PST and was an- nounced to the Russian people eight hours later. Stalin lay para 1yzed and in deep coma at the end.
 There was not hint as to who would succeed this man, who led the Soviet Unions 200 million people for 29 years and called the plays for Communists the world over. But a joint statement from the Communist Party and the government called for continual ton of such policies as strength ening the nations armed forces, increased vigilance at home and tighter bonds with Communists abroad.
 At this stage there is no pros pect of any change in the policies Stalin pursued.
 Friday afternoon motor hearse left the St. Spassky gate in the Kremlin. While thousands assem- bled on Red Square to see it, the hearse moved slowly from the Kremlin to the Hall of Columns, bearing Stalin's coffin.
 Immense heaps of flowers and wreaths surrounded it.
 Russians began filing past to gaze for the last time at the man who led them to victory over Nazi Germany. Thousands were in line when the doors opened.
 The processions for those wish ing to say "Svidaniya" (goodbye) will continue day and night until the funeral. A commission headed by Nikita Kruschev is now work ing on funeral plans. No date has been announced for the final ser vices nor has there been any word where Sta1in is to be buried.
 As the doors of the hall opened, the waiting thousands began nov ing two abreast through a corri- dor and up a wide stairway to- ward the center of the great room where Stalin's body lay, surroun- ded by flowers. His head rested upon pillow in the coffin.
 Soberly, men, women and chil- dren filed past, hesitating ever so slightly as they looked at the dead leaders face - face known around the world.

chandise and cash from three local
stores early this week. According
to Magistrate George r. Steven
son, who issued warrants of OBJ
tanning money under false pre-
lenses and turned them over to
town police, Kline said he came
from Pennsylvania. He is alleged
to have used the names of Charles
Stats and Carl Hurd, former
mayor of Clayton, on checks made
out to himself, which were accept
ed at the Acme Market, Western
Auto Associate, and Boulevard
Electric Sales and Service, Inc.
Two of the checks were for $67 so
each and one for $4250. The old
ruse of making a small purchase
and securing cash for the balance
of the check, was used, according
to Magistrate Stevenson.
