Flight To Capital
By Alaskans Will
Aid Statehood

ANCHORAGE, Up = The active
interest shown by Alaskans plan

Bartlett told radio station KEN

it is not likely the legislators will

The trip, he said, "could serve

would be made to force the state

man calling for partitioning of the
state is being given "active con-

leaders,"
He said he was opposed to the
partition plan which would give
statehood to the more populous
area of the territory and said he
felt most Alaskans agreed with
him.
"The fact is" he said, that our
opinions may not even be asked
on the subject. We may have to
make up our minds whether we
are ready to accept statehood in
partition or wait until a later
date to join the union as whole"

"Nike'' Missile
Sites Readied For
Seattle Area

SEATTLE, R-Launching and
control sites for the deadly Nike
aircraft missile are now being
readied in the Seattle area, the
Army reported today.
It was announced several weeks
ago that sites would be obtained
around the city for the guided
missile installations.
The latest Army announcement
says: "The Nike, which can OPP
crate regardless Of visibility or
weather conditions, will provide
the Seattle area with a far great
er degree Of antiaircraft protec-
ton than has ever before been
possible"
To provide for maximum safety
the Army added, the warhead in
the 20-foot long missile is made
so that it will explode only when
in flight.
In a description Of how the
wohder weapon works, the Army
said: GAS soon as the plane comes
within the missiles lethal range,
the Nike is launched and attains
supersonic speed within seconds.
Guided by remote control, the
missile intercepts the enemy plane
and explodes."
Land requirements are many
times larger for missile sites than
for conventional anti-aircraft
weapons.

to the Arctic on this cruise Of
the Burton Island.
On previous trips Of the Burton
Island to Nome, most Of the crew
walked ashore on the frozen ice.

And Fewer Airlines

WASHINGTON, Up President
Eisenhower has been advised by

federal aviation policy should be
toward fewer and stronger air
lines.
Overseas, he was told, the
United States should continue to
oppose 'fthe imposition of arbit-
rary, capricious or uneconomic
restrictions" on service by U. S.
international airlines.
The recommendations were
among those submitted by the
inter-departmental Air Co-ordin-
ating Committee, which had been

a thorough review of aviation
policy.
An ACC spokesman emphasized

ministration of the Army Depart

On that basis, Eisenhower said
emphatically, he backs Stevens to
the limit.
A reporter reminded Eisenhow-
err that he had expressed the hope
at his news conference last week
that the Senate inquiry would be
ended quickly.
The newsmen added that only
yesterday the Army counsel at the
hearing objected to Republican
proposal to cut the hearings short.
The President went on to say
that in expressing the hope the
hearings would be quickly con-
Guided he meant there should be
effective answers on the main
issues Of the dispute, and partici-
patton by the principals.
Eisenhower then said he want
ed to say one more thing on the
matter, and suggested he might
bar further questions on the sub
ject.
Speaking solemnly and with
great emphasis, the President said
his only hope now is that America
may derive from the hearings adj
vantages which, as he put it, may
be comparable to what we have
suffered in international prestige
and injury to national self respect.
On the Indochina-Dulles issue,
the President said in his formal
statement that the United States
and most of the free nations with
a direct interest in the security of
Southeast Asia are working on the
problem for a united front with
"a general sense of urgency"
''The countries of the area" the
President said, "are now thinking
in constructive terms, which in
clude the indispensable concept
of collective security. Progress in
this matter has been considerable
and I am convinced that further
progress will be continued to be
made"
Asked whether he thought the
Geneva Conference on Asian
peace problems had been major
diplomatic defeat for American
policy, Eisenhower replied crisply
that no one can count battle lost
while it is still going on.
