vice until the Japanese capitu-

vice until the Japanese capitu- lated Back in his Salem auto mobile leadership once more, he was stunned one day in 1947 when the governor, the senate president and the house speaker all were killed in an airplane accident. A few days later the Oregon, Re publicans tossed in McKay's hat for governor. He was elected. In 1850, he was reelected to a four year term with the biggest vote any Oregon gubernatorial candi- date ever received.
 His Philosophy
 At 59, Douglas Mckay feels that the Interior Secretaryship now gives him an opportunity to put something back into Amer ica" for what America has given him. Two actions as Governor of Oregon characterize his govern mental philosophy. He closed Ore gon Indian reservations schools, and brought the Indian young sters into the public schools, and at the same time repealed all state laws discriminating against Indians. And when a vast acre age of Oregon timberland was denuded and left barren, he or ganized great locally-financed and locally-managed reforestation project, sowing seeds with heli- copters, instead of relying on the federal government to do it.
 As Interior Secretary he wants gradually to end the govern ment's jurisdiction over the h. dians, give them full citizenship responsibilities and let them be- come self-reliant. Paternalism for anyone, he thinks, is destructive.
 T believe in private enter prise," he said at the close of the interview. "But it must earn it's way. For instance, atomic energy is being developed by our govern ment. It holds great promise for the future. At the proper time, I believe it should be gradually transferred to private industry but not as a gift''

Survey Reports Promising Coal
 Deposits in The Susitna Region


 WASHINGTON, R- The Geo. logical Survey said yesterday it has found promising occurrences of subbituminous coal in the Little Susitna district in Alaska.
 In report on field work last year, the agency said the two most promising deposits were an eight-foot bed containing six and one-half feet of clean coal and a bed at least nine feet thick that contains five feet of clean coal in the exposed section.
 The Little Susitna district lies along the north side of the lower Matanuska Valley near Palmer and Wasilla.

CAB Denies Applications To Serve Togiak by Air

WASHINGTON, R-The Civil Aeronautics Board has rejected applications of two Alaska air lines-Northern Consolidated and Pacific Northern - to serve To- 1giak, Alaska.
 The board said the applications raised issues of public conven- fence which should be explored in a certificate proceeding.
 Northern Consolidated applied Dec. 3 to serve Togiak on it's routes to and from Bethel and Platinum. It said Togiak, 50 miles from Platinum, has a substantial permanent popuation greater than many Alaskan towns now having air service.
 Pacific Northern petitioned on Feb. 16 for permission to serve Togiak on it's e-Bristol Bay route.

THE NEW SECRETARY OF INTERIOR

HE NEW
 SECRETARY OF INTERIOR
 WASHINGTON-"If the Amer ican people ever lose their self reliance in any great numbers" :" Secretary of Interior Douglas Me Kay said to me, "our nation will be destroyed"
 The key word in the American language Secretary Mckay feels is opportunity" The govern ment's primary responsibility is to protect and expand it.
 Secretary Mckay considers the number one job of the Interior Department to be the safeguard ing of the natural resources so their development may enrich the lives of all Americans. He believes that in most cases private enter prise can best serve in such devel- opments.
 School of Hard Knocks
 Douglas McKay's Scotch fore bearers helped settle the West, but his parents were of such modest means that young Doug, at IA, was driving a butchers delivery wagon while getting his high school education piecemeal. He worked his way through Oregon State College, but the beginning of his career was cut short by World War I. He enlisted. In the historic battle of the Argonne Forest, his outfit engaged in the fiercest action. Of it's POI men, only 28 survived. Mckay, his right shoulder terribly shattered, was given little chance for months and had to adjust to a lifetime of being handicapped.
 At wars end he got a job sell T Portland, Ore. He lived thriftily, saved his money, and in 1928 bought small Chevrolet dealer ship in Salem. Some of his capital was borrowed money and this he paid back early in the depression because he felt the future was so uncertain he might not have it later. He weathered the depres- sion by cutting expenses to the bone Today his automobile busi- ness, built up gradually over 25 years, is prospering.
 Put Something Back"
 Larry Smyth, veteran writer on the Oregon Journal, was persuad- ed by the new Secretary to take a leave Of absence and work with him for a time in Washington. Smyth covered McKay's political career in Oregon. ''When Douglas Mckay got in business for him self and began to progress in Salem, he also got into civic work" Smyth told me. His theory was, and still is, that those who take somehing out of com munity should put something back" McKay's civic work led to his being elected mayor. He next was sent to the state senate.
 When World War II started he cut short any further political career and, although handicapped and average, he enlisted in the Army again. He remained in ser

functions they perform are not
proper responsibility of the
Federal government. Since agen-
cies of this type have net assets
valued at many billions of dollars,
the possibility of reducing the
public debt through their liquida-
ton is great.
THE atomic energy program
presents a third type of problem,
for here that question concerns
the wisdom of retaining the Fed
eraI monopoly in production and
distribution of atomic energy for
peaceful purposes as well as for
defense. In this connection, there
is a growing realization of the
fact that the speed and extent
of this nations progress in de-
velopment of civilian uses of at
