$500 Airmen
Because of Cutback

WASHINGTON, Up = The Air
Force says it is dismissing a
Philadelphia Negro along with
$500 other airmen because of
budgetary limitations not be-
cause he refused to sit in seq
regated section of a southern bus.
The National Association for
the Advancement of Colored Peo-
pie NAACP) cited the case of 1t.
Thomas Williams of Philadelphia
in charging the Air Force is re-
primanding Negro officers who
ignore southern Jim Crow prac-
tees"
Clarence Mitchell, NAACP dir
ector here, said in a statement
yesterday that this amounts to
disobedience of Supreme Court
decisions outlawing segregation in
interstate travel.
But an Air Force spokesman
said last night the bus incident
had nothing to do with Williams
dismissal. The spokesman said he
was among $500 airmen being
let out because of budget curbs.
He said the $500 were chosen
because it was felt their release
would least disrupt the effective
ness of the Air Force.
Mitchell said Williams, a pilot
in training at Craig Air Base,
Ala, refused to sit in a segregated
section of bus enroute from
Florida to Alabama.
He said Williams's dismissal
was approved at a Pentagon meet
ing last Thursday despite re-
quest by the NAACP for re-
view.

Philly Police
Round Up
LOCO Teen-Agers

PHILADELPHIA, Up - Deter
mined Philadelphia police - del
uged with complaints of rowdy-
ism by youthful mobs in recent
weeks-drove ahead with crack
down on teen age gangs today
after rounding up more than 1000
youngsters over the weekend.
Capt. Howard Leary of the
Juvenile Aid Bureau and Police
Commissioner Thomas Gibbons
said the police will "harass and
haunt these gangs until they
make up their minds to settle
down, be good citizens and stop
bothering others"
The comments came in the
wake of the unprecedented week
end roundup which saw 625 young
sters taken into custody from one
police division in the northern
section of the city while raiding
squads in other parts of Phila-
delphia brought in more than 400
boys and girls.
Gibbons said increasing COM
plants of beatings, holdups, and
robberies by young toughs 'who
hang around sleazy poolrooms,
taprooms and all-night diners in
stead of staying at home and do
ing something constructive
prompted the breakdown.
Even as the raid was going on,
Gibbons disclosed, four youths
mugged a As year old woman,
held her prisoner and crininally
assaulted her.
Driscol said a large quantity
of guns and switch-back knives
were scooped up by police.

Jury Recommends
Fairbanks Police
Chief Be Fired

FAIRBANKS, R - The same
federal grand jury that indicted
Mrs. Diane Wells and Johnny
Warren for first degree murder in
connection with the death of Cecil
Wells recommended Friday that
the chief of police who investi-
gated the case be fired.
The recommendation was in
Guided in report brought in by
the grand jury at the conclusion
of lengthy session.
Referring to E. v. Danforth, the
Fairbanks police chief, the jury
said:
From the evidence which the
grand jury has heard, we are Of
the opinion that the chief of police
of the City of Fairbanks is not
qualified to the position he now
occupies.
eve believe that the chief of
police should hand in his resigna-
ton, and in the event Chez does
not desire to do so, the city. coun-
Gil should consider replacing him. "
During the investigation of the
death of the wealthy Alaska bust
nessman, charges were made that
the chief had "shouldered out 9TH
er law enforcement agencies" and
conducted the probe alone.

Alaska Will Become State
When Govt. Releases Some
OF SO Pct. Land 1t Holds

WASHINGTON, Up - Alaska
can qualify to become a state
when its land is owned by the
people and not by the govern
ment.
That's what Interior Secretary
Mckay told a CBS-TV "Man of
the Week" program Sunday.
He said the government owns
about SO per cent of the land in
Alaska now. Mckay proposed that
a homestead plan be introduced to
enable the people to take over the
land.
Mckay said he is opposed to the
governments policy of support
ing such projects as the Tennessee
Valley Authority. Then "a little
later he said of the Pacific North
west, when it comes to that,
without tine government there
wouldn't have been the vast hydro
resources in the northwest"

Chamber Makes
Request For
Special Session

JUNEAU, IA request for a
special session of the Alaska leg
islature has come from the North
western Alaska Chamber of Com
merce. The formal request was
delivered to Gov. Heintzlenfan by
Sen. Howard Lying, Nome Demo-
crat, who came here for a meet
ing of the Legislative Examining
and Investigating Committee.
The League of Alaskan Cities
also asked recently for a special
session.
Reasons listed by the North
western Chamber for special
session are:
A decline in territorial income
tax; need for the territory to
assume a greater share of road
building; need for the territory
to take a hand in emergencies
such as the salmon season failure;
a need to adjust finances to re-
fund to federal employees the taxes
paid on their Is per cent salary
differential; to place the new
territorial police force Sin its
proper financial perspective" by
direct appropriation; to enact
other legislation that didn't get
through the 6O-day session.

Cpl. Dickinson
Given ROusing
Welcome Home

CRACKER'S NECK, Va, Up -
Cpl. Ed Dickinson was tired and
happy today after a homecoming
celebration that continued into the
wee hours and swept away any
doubts he might have had about
how his people would welcome
him.
There was a forgive and-forget
air around the little hillside cabin
where his ia mily and friends
greeted him with warm affec-
ton which bewildered even young
Dickinson.
He planned to sleep, eat the
home-cooked dishes he likes best,
and map his future that has been
fuzzy ever since he decided he
preferred life in his homeland to
life among the Communists.
Dickinson was one of % Ameri-
can soldiers who were listed as
having refused repatriation in the
exchange of prisoners in Korea.
But then he left the other % and
bolted to freedom a month ago,
saying he hadn't acted sooner be-
cause of death threats.
Dickinson, %, has said he
would re-enlist in the Army after
his present 30-day furlough. But
last night he limited he might stay
in the hills he left three years ago
to- enter the Army. Give got a
lot of thinking to do about it. =
he said.
His 73-year-old father, Van
Buren, Dickinson, said:
"I'm going to knock it out of
him, his going back into the
Army. We need him at home and
I don't think it would be right for
him to leave again"
Dickinson ended his 10000
mile journey from a Korean pri-
son camp last night and walked
straight into a rousing, almost n.y.
sterical welcome from brothers,
sisters, in-laws and friends who
had trudged up the hillside to the
family home.

No Liability For
City. Taxpayers In
Light Plant Sale

1.-THE purchase of the Northern
Light and Power Company could
never result in a burden on the
taxpayers and property owners of
the City of Nome" This was the
statement of William VIM, of Jul
neau, representative of Grande
and Company, Seattle brokers.
In an interview with the Mug
get, Mr.. VIM clarified the posi-
ton of his company as purchasers
of the light company bonds. He
emphasized that the only lien held
by the bond holders would be
against the revenues of the COM
pany, not city property or the
physical assets of the plant.
"The worst that could happen
to the city light SYSTEM" VIM
said," would be that through a
failure of the city to properly
manage the company, the manage
ment would be transferred to
Grande and Company as repres-
entatives of the private bond
owners" The city would have alb
solute ownership Of the plant and
if the management was trans
ferred to the bonding company it
would be retained only until the
bonds were retired.
Inability to pay for the plant
out Of revenues seems hardly a
possibility" VIM said. "The mar
gin between the payments to be
made on the bonds and the pres
ent profit of the company is the
greatest I have ever seen in an
Alaskan utility" he pointed out.
Successful municipal operations
of light plants exist in all Alaskan
towns with the exception of Jul
neau and Nome. In Juneau, the
city has tried many times to buy
the light distribution plant but the
owners have been unwilling to
sell. VIM said that in all towns,
municipal ownership has resulted
in better service and lower rates.
VIM said that this was due to
the federal tax laws. A tax free
municipal operation has a decided
advantage-in the case of Nome it
would be saving of $4,000 an
nual federal income tax-over a
private company. added to this
fact" VIM said, my experience
has been that municipal control is
more efficient than the absentee
ownership that existed in the
majority of Alaskan cities. Our
company, as representatives of the
bond owners, have never had to
assume management of an Alas
kan municipal utility" VIM con-
Guided.

New VA Dividend
To Be Paid in 1854
BY the Asseeieted Press

The Veterans Administration
announced today it will pay a
regular dividend of $3.50 million
next year to veterans holding
about five million National Serv-
ice Life Insurance policies.
A VA official explained that
somewhat fewer than five million
individual veterans actually will
receive payments because some
have more than one policy.
District Va Offices will handle
the bulk of the payments and
the first checks will start going
out about so days after the an
niversary date of the policies.
The top individual dividend
will be about $50. The same pay
ment scales will apply that were
used for figuring the 1852 and
1858 regular dividends.
Holders of term policies who
are less than 40 years old-the
group holding the major number
will get so cents per month on
each 81 900 of insurance for each
month the policy was in force
during the year ending on the
1854 anniversary date.
Policies must have been in
force three months or longer
except for veterans on active
duty during the Korean hostili-
ties who have now returned to
civil life.
