WHERE'S OUR JUDGE?

The Wrathy criticism of the nomination of A. T. Mcuire of Connecticut for district judge in the Second Division court, especially among the Third Division Republicans, is something like the fable of the dog in the manager if they can't have judge, they don't want anyone else to have one either
 Second Division without judge from Sep- tember 12 1951 until July 28 1852, and the people of this know how difficult it is to carry on without that important department functioning
 We, tOO might have preferred Alaskan but if political leaders of the territory can't agree among themselves who is worthy of holding this responsible position, then becomes necessary for higher power to designate outside the inner circle of Alas kans to hold the office. We regret that McGuires him whole-heartedly, knowing President Eisenhower ship.
 In a recent news dispatch it intimated that for economy's sake the Second and Fourth Division courts could be combined This might and might not be an economy for the Justice Department-we doubt it. But what of the little man?" Is not justice to be considered for Mr. Average Alaskan? What of the high cost of travel and the time involved for him to seek justice? This is growing country that has more population than the State of Nevada. Any plans for changing the present structure should have vision of the future needs of the territory or state
 There are those in favor of statehood and minor lty opposed to immediate statehood but statehood will come. It is opinion that with the changing status Tn the balance 1t IS poor time and waste of valuable effort to be tearing down structure set up and func tioning to the satisfaction of the people of Alaska
 Changes~ar costly and the Anchorage and Fair banks courts have more to do than their respec- tive judges can handle so why confuse the issue by piling more problems on them?

STORY OF LOMEN FAMILY, BY LYMAN ELLSWORTHY, GETS FINISHING TOUCHES

Lyman Ellsworth, who has been in Kotzebue, passed through Nome enroute to Juneau, stating that his second book, "Halibut Schoon- er,' will soon be off the press, and will be published by David Mckay Company of New York.
 It is a factual story based on the life of Magnus Hanson and the fishing fleet of Alaska.
 He is also putting the finishing touches on a story of the Lomen family, ''Roughing It With Rein deer," which promises to be an interesting and exciting story of early-day Nome.
 Ellsworth is related to Lincoln Ellsworth, explorer, who is well known here by residents who re- member the flight of the Norge over. the North Pole.

Only China, Cuba and US Oppose Seating Of India At Korea Conference

UNITED NATIONS, NY, R- Cuba today became the second LIN. member to line up with the United States opposing inclusion of India in the Korean peace con- ference. Nationalist China came out against India earlier.
 Other countries from Scandin- avia, the Middle East and eastern Europe continued, however, to join the growing list in favor of Indian participation.
 Meanwhile, the delegates stud jed a new Indian proposal which some said would give Communist China and North Korea a veto over the LIN. choices for the con- ference table.

World Bank Revives
Talk Of 81 Billion
Sterilization Fund
BY the Assoeiafed Press

Talk was revived at the 55-
nation financial conference here
today Of a $4-billion plus "sta-
bilization fund.- Of American
dollars to steady the ups and
downs Of foreign currencies.
British delegates, as well as
some American officials and
others, repeatedly are interested
in the possibility Of such an ar
rangement.
II could only be created by
Congress since prevailing high
interest rates presumably would
rule out private sources. It
would supplement the currency
resources of the International
Monetary Fund in meeting the
temporary dollar needs of some
nations.
So far as is known, no formal
proposal Of this kind ever has
been presented to the United
States Government or to the
Monetary Fund. The most dis
cusSed proposal, however, is that
Congress set up a sum as 'Iend-
ing authority" rather than as
an appropriation. The fund
would use it as needed, repaying
as its own money came back in.
The money might be admin

Door-to-Door Hunt
For Tax Dodgers Is
Dropped for Present
by The Assoeiated Press

Revenue Commissioner T. Cole
man Andrews has ordered a halt
to any new house-to-house can
vases by revenue agents IN a
search for tax dodgers.
At the same time, Mr.. An
drews directed all field Offices to
report on results and public re-
action to door-knocking cam
paigns already started.
Revenue officials said these
reports will be studied to deter
mine a uniform policy for a new
national canvass to find people
who don't file tax returns.
The house-to-houSe or busi-
neSs-to-buSiness canvass already
has been started in New England
and Nebraska, and spread with
variations to other points. 1t
has drawn some criticism about
"snooping" and invasion Of citi-
EenS' privacy.
To Examine Reports.
Revenue officials said reports
from field Offices will be ex-
amined to find:
/. Whether the personal can
vass is paying off in tax collec-
tions.
2. Whether the public reac-
ton is so unfavorable it should
be discontinued.
They added, however. that all
reports so far indicate the cam
paigns have been well received
generally, although there have
been a few complaints.
The field reports will deter
mine whether the national can
vass. should be a door-to-door
type or of some other nature.
Ofncials suggested that city di-
rectories, telephone Istings, lists
of business licenses. etc., could
be used without subjecting so
many taxpayers to a personal
interview.
''No SnOOping" Policy.
Mr.. Andrews, in a letter to
Representative Morano, Repub-
lican of Connecticut, and some
other critics, recently said agents
making the door -to-door checks
have plain instructions against
shopping or asking personal
questions.
"Our men are instructed to be
courteous, impartial and helpful
in carrying out this difficult
task" the August Is letter con-
tinued. IF the taxpayer is un-
willing to talk with the agent.
that ends it-he does not harass
the taxpayer.
Nov then-is this effort un-
fair-unwarranted-is it, as some
have asked, un-American? We
feel not. Rather, we feel 1t
would be American and unfair
for us to stand by and be a
party to announcement OF dis
honesty by shirkers."
Pays Big Dividends.
The letter said a canvas in
New England paid big d1Vl-
dends." Of 5000 taxpayers
questioned in two days, Mr..
Andrews wrote, 1850 were found
to be delinquent. And the 258
agents, working at salary cost
of $1O,250, collected $242,OOO in
back taxes.
Pending receipt of reports from
the field, revenue officials said,
they could not list all the points
where canvaSses have been
started or results in other areas.

Briton Outlines Problem.
In more general terms, Sir
Reginald Maudling, economic
secretary to the British treasury.
told the eighth annual meeting
Of the governors of the Monetary
Fund and the World Bank yes
terday that the funds resources

The job is that Of making

convertible-that is exchange
able into dollars and other
"hard" currencies-as a major
step toward freer international

Sir Reginald did not elaborate.
But some delegates expressed the
belief his words could be inter-
preted in only two ways-either
that IMF's dollar holdings should
be increased. or that a supple
mental source of dollars and
other wanted currencies should
be available.
No Hint of Reaction.
w. Randolph Burgess, deputy
for monetary affairs to Secre-
tary of the Treasury Humphrey,
