Terri. Police, Raise For Teachers, and
 Liquor Get Action
By JIM HUTCHINSON

JUNEAU, R - Both houses of the/ Alaska Legislature whipped through bills in rapid fire tempo Tuesday night as the Thursday adjournment date neared.
 A bill to create a territorial police force won approval while the House was okaying a 23-mil- lion dollar general appropriations bill and an $500 yearly salary in- crease for teachers.
 The police bill previously ap- proved by the House returns there because of Senate amendments. The teacher pay bill goes back to the Senate because the House boosted the raise from $500.
 Both houses took action on sep arate liquor bills.
 The Senate completed legisla- tive action on a bill to eliminate petition peddler nuisance in re- newals of liquor licenses outside of cities. The measure, sponsored by Rep. John Coghill, makes it tougher to get licenses originally by requiring approval of two thirds of residents within a mile instead of a majority within two miles. Petitions would not have to be circulated annually if dis pensary avoids any infraction of regulations.
 The House approved the bill sponsored by Sens. Paul Robison and Gerrit Snider requiring new liquor dispensers to be one-quar- ter mile from school or church outside cities and 200 feet from grounds in cities.
 Other House bills passed by the Senate included: providing $20 per diem allowance for members of boards and commissions during meetings; providing aeronautics training and education for eligible veterans; and boosting aid to di- visional fairs from $2,O0O to $3,000

Queen Mary of Britain
 Dies at Age of 85 Years

LONDON, R-Queen Elizabeth II Wednesday decreed months mourning for Queen Mary, thus carrying out her grandmother's wish that nothing interfere with Elizabeth's coronation in June.
 Queen Mary died peacefully in her sleep Tuesday night at the age of 85.
 The period of mourning after a month will allow plenty of time for pre- coronation arrangements and activities.
 Elizabeth accompanied by the Duke of Edinburgh, was among the descendants of Queen Mary who drove slowly up to Marlbor- ough House today. All were at tired in deep mourning. Their faces were heavy with grief and they bowed their heads as they walked into Queen Mary's home to discuss funeral arrangements.
 The Duke of -Mary's favorite son who renounced the throne in 1886 to marry Wallis Warfield Simpson, an American divorcee, drove up alone. In New York, the Duchess said she was greatly distressed by the news of the Queens death and had can- celled all social arrangements. The Duchess had never been received by her mother-in-law.
 The funeral probably will not be held at Westminster Abbey because of the coronation build ing work in progress there.
 Months ago the -willed old grandmother, in speaking to friends about the coronation, said, Nothing must interfere with it, nothing"

Russia Rejects US. Protest Over Firing On Plane Near Siberian Coast

MOSCOW, R-Russia has re- jected a US. protest against a shooting scrape involving an Am erican plane in the Far East. A Kremlin note said the American craft made two 'premeditated" violations of Siberian territory and fired first.
 The Soviet rejection, printed in Russian newspapers Tuesday, counterdemanded that the U. $. government take steps to prevent future violations of Soviet borders by American planes.
 Qn Washington, State Depart ment press officer Michael Nc Dermott said the Russian note had been received. He had no com ment except to say the Soviet yer sion was contrary" to the facts as stated in the American protest.

Legislature Overrides Three
 Vetoes by Governor Cruening

JUNEAU, Ex-Governor Ernest Gruening clashed head on with the Alaska Legislature Thursday with vetoes of three of the Repub- lican majority's major bills.
 The House immediately fired back with a 20 to vote on straight party lines to override them all.
 The Senate, at a night session, also voted IA to to override his veto of the Stringer investigating committee bill but left the other two to it's Judiciary Committee for further study.
 The two senators who support ed Gruening were William Egan and William Beltz.
 The Governor also vetoed the bill for a bounty on wolverines.
 Both houses overrode the veto on that one-the House by 21-3 vote. It was introduced by the Senate President Charles Jones and is his pet bill of the session.
 The Governor said the Employ ment Commission bill is "what is known as ripper legislation namely legislation designed to un- seat the legally appointed and con- firmed incumbent"
 He said it was pointed only at removing the commission chair man, Ralph Rivers.
 Gruening declared such action was unnecessary because there are two openings on the commis- sion which the Republican gov ernor will be able to fill as he chooses.
 The governor said that unseat- ing Rivers might not be sufficient reason for the veto but, he said, reconstituting the board with only two labor and two management members and no public members opens the way to deadlock and paralysis with neglect of the pub lie interests.
 The governor cited three main legal questions in vetoing the in- vestigating committee bill. He questioned the provision for up to $35 day allowance for six members of the committee, refer ring in turn to the Organic Act which prohibits any legislator from holding any office which was created or for which the sal-

Bigger Boom Ahead
And No Recession,
Adman Tells NAM
By Francis P. Douglas
Stor Sfoff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-The
National Association of Manu-
facturers was told today that
instead of that widely predicted
recession, in the near future,
pressureS are building up which
should boom business by an addi-
tional 10 per cent.
This rosy view of the future
was given by Arno H. johnson
as the NAM went into the Sec
ond day of its three-day annual
convention. Mr.. Johnson is vice
president of the j. Walter
Thompson Advertising Agency.
The 10 per cent to which Mr..
johnson alluded would be 10
per cent boost in the. standard
of living-an increase by that
much in consumer demand for
goods and services-in 1954-5.
This, he said, would so broaden
the bases of various taxes that
the Federal budget would not
only be balanced but there would
be surplus as result of a tax
income of $75 billion.
Taxes of that amount in the
next fiscal year would be $12
billion more than the Treasury
estimates. The $75 billion of in
come would leave an $8.5 billion
surplus over the administrations
estimate of about $66.5 billion
of spending instead of the $3.5
billion deficit now foreseen.
Cites Advance Factors.
Here are some of the factors,
according to Mr.. johnson, which
are generating pressures for this
advance:
l. The amount a family has
above what it must spend for
the necessities of life-food,
clothing and shelter-is now five
times as great as it was in 1910.
This discretionary spending pow
er represents SIS per cent of the
disposable income after taxes
compared with 35 per cent in the
prewar period.
9. Population continues to
grow rapidly. This means not
only greater demand for the
necessities but also increased
demand for better schools and
more teachers.
3. The rise in the education
level of the population results in
demands for higher living stand
ards.
4. Higher living standards and
changes in tastes mean that
homes built in accordance with
lower living standards will be
considered obsolete. He pointed
out that so per cent of the Ma
tion's homes are more than 80
years old.
While the NAM has reached
no settled policy on tariff cuts,
it took up the foreign trade
policy yesterday. S. A. Allyn of
Dayton. Ohio, president of the
National Cash Register Co.,
maintained that lowering or
eliminating tariffs entirely
would not end the dollar gaps
which other countries suffer in
their trade with us.

pean industry urged greater op-

the suggestions have been given

and would be discussed again

sionerS.

and John L. c. Sullivan.

Grafton of Businessmen's Asso-
Citations
A delegation from the asso-
citation met with Engineer Com
missioner Louis w. PrentisS for
some three hours yesterday to
present its views on the financ-
ing of the program.
Benjamin Striner, chairman
of the Fiscal Relations Commit
tee, criticized present plans to
raise money by eight tax in
creases and by Federal Interest
bearing loans.
The higher taxes would hurt
the small businessman and drive
business to the suburbs, he de-
clared.
Concern for Future.
Were concerned that at the
end OF the 10-year period, we're
going to have such a backlog of
general construction that is
necessary that we will be actu-
ally in worse shape than we are
today" he said, adding that
higher taxes would be needed.
The delegation proposed that
the program be paid for by:
Adoption of a Federal pay
ment to the District of not less
than Is per cent of the general
fund costs, as suggested by SEN
ator johnson, Democrat. Of
South Carolina.
Reduction of District expenses
by such means as turning the

WARRENTON. Va, April a.
The possibility that the Virginia
Gold Cup may be retired in the
28th running of the timber
classic May 2 has raised the
problem of where to find a re-

Mr.. Mars first won the Gold
