WASHINGTON R-Several key
Republican congressman were re-
ported to have advised Presi-
dent Eisenhower to expect little or
no action by Congress this year to
lower tariff barriers against for
eign goods.
This was the reported stand of
Republicans who have fought ira
ditionally for tariffs high enough
to protect American industry from
competition at home from cheaper
foreign goods.
Tariffs are taxes imposed on
foreign products as they enter the
United States, in effect raising
their prices here.
Eisenhower received over the
weekend a 102-page report from his
17-man Foreign Economic Policy
Commission, headed by Clarence
B. Randall of Chicago, Inland Steel
Co. board chairman.

sPARKMAN SAYS ADMIT ALASKA

Senator John Sparkman, Alabama Democrat, said
recently Alaska should be admitted to the Union as
state Hawaii Is granted admission Sparkman did not
say he would oppose statehood for Hawaii but said he
would press effort to have Alaska included in the
same movement for admission.
The Alabama Senator said he thought It would
be mistake to admit of these territories without
admitting the other and expressed the belief that such
move would have unmstakable political connotations
Git widely believed that Hawaii would elect two Re-
publican Senator'S if it is admitted as a state).
The argument against admitting Alaska has re-
voyed largely around the fact that ninety per cent
Of the territory of Alaska is under Federal ownership
and therefore, exempt from state taxation Sparkman
says this situation could be gradually remeded since the
Federal Government does not intend to maintain owner
ship Of this land indefinitely.
There seems to be merit to Sparkman's argument.
We do not believe that because the Federal Government
large percentage of the territory of Alaska this
situation bars statehood for that strategic territory The
remedy to this situation need not before statehood
but could easily be worked after statehood is grant
ed Although present indications are that statehood for
Hawaii is reality and that Alaska may be left
