Signs point to a Tightening Of
Republican ranks in the House
despite the present rumblings
over the Eisenhower farm, tax

Alaskan for Tactics
In Statehood Fight
BY the Associated Pres.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska. July
PIT just get sick and tired OF
being kicked around by Alas
kans," Secretary of the Interior
Douglas Mckay told a group
here Tuesday who had asked how
the territory could achieve state
hood.
The Secretary gave his audi
ence six reasons and a tongue
flashing in explaining why state
hood had not been gained.
SIN for statehood" he told
the members of the board OF
directors of Operation State
hood, "but the President of the
United States is the one who
writes the policies for the execu-
tive department and ! just work
for him."
He gave these reasons why
statehood legislation has been
stymied:
Cd The Presidents opposition
for defense reasons; 90 Alaskan
opposition to partition of the
territory; CD tying of the Alas
kan and Hawaiian bills to-
gether; a. opposition OF some
Congressman to admitting nom
contiguous territory applying
also to Hawaii; 60 the belli-
gerent attitude of the Alaskans,
and go insufficient development
OF the territory.
He told the nonpartisan group
he objected to their belligerent
attitude" toward members of
Congress, himself, Director of
Territories William Strand and
other officials.
your peoples attitude has to
change" he said. Get back
down to earth, start acting like
ladies and gentlemen.
He said reports that Alaska
is being held onto for, the De-
partment of the Interior is 'just
a bunch Of horsefeathers."

Of Convicted Reds

Anti-Subversive bills to outlaw
the Communist Party and ia
strip nationality from citizens
convicted Of seeking violent over
throw Of the Government figured
prominently today in the House
drive for. adjournment.
The House yesterday shouted
approval Of q measure recon-
mended by President Eisenhower
to take away United States ma
tionality Of native born or natur-
allied citizens convicted Of trea-
son, attempting or advocating
overthrow of the Government by
violence. or conspiring to destroy
or levy war against the Govern
ment.
The House also sent to the
Senate following unanimous voice
vote approval q bill containing
stricter penalties for persons who
Jump bail in connection with
Federal court offenses.
House Judiciary Committee
members said this was aimed
particularly at convicted Com
munists who Jump bail, as was
done by four of the IL Commu-
mist Party leaders sentenced to
prison four years ago on charges
OF conspiracy to teach and advo-
cate violent overthrow of the
Government.
Bill Would Ban Party.
Shortly before the House
passed those bills Judiciary
subcommittee approved and re-
ferred to the full committee a
bill to outlaw the Communist
Party in the United States "or

CARELESS of assumed Names"
Full committee or House ap-
prevail Of the bill seemed doubt
full in view of opposition by At
torney General Brownell and
FBI Director j. Edgar Hoover to
earlier proposals to outlaw the
Communist Party. So far as
could be recalled at the Capitol
this was the first bill Of its kind
ever to be approved by q con-
greSsional subcommittee. None
has ever been sent to the House
or Senate floor by a committee.
Representative Celler, Demo-
crat, of New York, disclosed that
he voted against the bill at the
subcommittee closed session.
The vote repeatedly was to
for the measure sponsored by
Representative Graham, Repub-
lican, Of Pennsylvania, the sub
committee chairman.
Seen Aiding Party.
Mr.. Celler warned that such
legislation would give the Com
munists a "claim to martyrdom.
He declared the bill raised grave
questions of constitutionality. He
said it would "vitiate effective
provisions" of the Smith Act of
1910 and the Internal Security
Act of 1850 as well as the work
of the Subversive Activities Con-
troll Board which has officially
declared the party Communist
action group required to register
with the Attorney General. The
party has appealed to the courts.
The Graham bill would be-
come effective 80 days after
enactment. It would provide q
maximum penalty of 10 years
in prison and a $4,000 fine for
conviction Of membership in the
party after being outlawed.
In still another House develop
ment along the anti-subversive
line the Judiciary Committee
indicated today it would report
