Alaska TB Death Rate Seven Times That of US.

WASHINGTON, lR-Dr. C. Earl Albrecht, Alaska Health Commis- sioner, has told a House Appropri- ation subcommittee that Alaska $ death rate from tuberculosis is seven times greater than in the United States.
 He said Alaska's tuberculosis death rate is 181 per 100000 per sons, compared with 26 in the US.
 Supporting an appropriation re- quest for public health work in Alaska, Albrecht urged that grants be maintained at about S700,000 annually.
 He said federal appropriations for the work have been decreas- ing for several years while the territorial legislature has been forced to increase it's health funds.
 The federal cuts, he declared ''have resulted in the elimination of urgently needed programs: all of the mobile marine units have been tied up and Al personnel, including physicians, dentists, nurses have had to be laid off tuberculosis X-ray fol- lowups and surveys and vaccin- ation had to be curtailed."

Nine Drown As Overladen ROwbOat Capsizes

HELENA, Mont, R-A little green boat, bought only hours be- fore with borrowed money for a celebration outing, last night flip ped nine of it's 10 occupants into watery graves. Eight of the bodies were recovered today.
 The screams of a mother, whose Helena family was wiped out, brought two boys. and a girl onto the remote scene thinking the screams those of a cougar. The trio rowed outSinto the darkness and rescued the mother, Mrs. Billie Akins, 38. She had clung to the side of the upturned boat more than two hours.
 Her father-inlaw John Atkins, 70, had also held on in the frigid muddy waters until shortly before the rescue. She said she saw the body of his wife go by earlier.
 Otherwise, she said, when the boat collapsed, she never again saw her husband, Edward, 35, a smelter worker; her five children, and a neightbor, Edward Burns, AT, Helena mechanic.
 The sheriff said the boat, pow cred by the neighbor's outboard motor, was clearly overloaded by the 10 persons.

Accused C.I.s Deny They Are Tainted By Communism

PHOENIXVILLE, Pa, R-Ten gaunt, tight-lipped men stepped into the public spotlight at Valley Forge military hospital to deny they had been tainted by Com munism while prisoners of war in Korea.
 They were bitter - and they made it plain they felt they had reason to be.
 The stage for their tense drama was set yesterday at the hospital here - short drive from the Revolutionary War memorial park that gave the hospital it's name. It had it's origin in the cirmcum- stances surrounding their flight home after release by their Red captors.
 While the 1O-and 10 companions were enroute from Tokyo by plane last Thursday, an Air Force spokesman said the Pentagon had ordered veil of secrecy thrown around the flight "because of the position taken by the Army and others that these men may have been misled under conditions of duress and hardship during the period of their captivity"
 Cpl. James L. Ball, q, of Bell burn, w. Va, said: ''This Red label makes us feel like criminals. We are all completely innocent" !"
 Some of the staff officers at the hospital seemed as militantly con- fused by the situations as the men themselves.
 'I don't know where this idea started said one army doctor, EFbut there's one thing for sure we're not running damned 1aundromat here"
 Cpl. Robert H. Hickox, B, of Syracuse, N.Y., who was serving with the 65th Engineers when cap tured Nov. 27, 1850, said he con- sidered the suggestion he or any other member of the group was Red-tainted "an insult"
 Ut didn't make homecoming any better" he said.

ment building and returned
home.

names of some of the Iranian
military and political leaders
that have been arrested since
the start Of the demonstrations.

claimed that Mossadegh's police
have rounded up 20 retired
and active officers, who partici-
pated in demonstrations for the
Shah.
Among those listed by Bakhtar
Emrooz were Gen. Abhas Garzan,
army chief Of staff under for
mer Premier Ali Razmara, who
