BraZilians Riot In
Protest of Coup
By Military Group

RIO DE JANIERO, Brazil, Up
Widespread rioting - some of it
directed at American business in
llations-flared in the Brazil
ian capital today Immediately
after the body of Getulio Vargas
was taken by plane to burial in
southern Brazil.
Two persons were killed and
more than 80 persons injured in
an outbreak of violence after a
half million Brazilians had gath
cred at Rios downtown airport to
pay a last farewell to Vargas -
the strong man leader who chose
yesterday to take his own life
rather than yield the presidency
by force.
This morning troops patrolled
the streets in heavy numbers
while Vargas body was taken
from the presidential palace to
the airport.
There was no outburst until
after the plane left the airport for
Vargas home in southern Brazil
where he was to be buried in an
unblessed grave.
A crowd gathered in front of
the air ministry, apparently to
express their hostility at the So
air force and army generals who
forced, Vargas, II, to resign.
Troops rushed to the scene and
opened fire, injuring two persons.
In the central area of the city
riot car equipped with high
pressure hoses tried to dispense a
mob. The angry Brazilians mob
bed the car and set it afire. At
lease 20 persons were reported
injured in that incident.
Windows of the Standard Oil
Co. building were smashed and
crowds gathered at the us. en-
bassy, which was placed under
heavy guard.

DENVER, R-President Eisen-

Every happy" to go to Hawaii to
celebrate admission of the terri
tory into the union as the 49th
state-if Congress votes next year
to authorize statehood.
Mrs. Elizabeth harrington, the
new delegate in Congress from
Hawaii, called on the President

to invite him to the islands.
Mrs. Harrington told news
conference she invited the Presi-

come to Hawaii on "admission
day." when the islanders are plan
ming a statehood celebration -
again assuming the legislation is
approved by Congress.
During the 83rd Congress which
adjourned last week, both the
House and Senate passed bills to
make Hawaii a state, but the
Senate tackled on to it's measure
a provision for bringing Alaska
into the union at the same time.
The House refused to go along
on that, and the legislation died.

Eisenhower Decides To
Defer US. Claims To
Antarctic Territory

WASHINGTON, President
Eisenhower repeatedly has de-
cided to defer any formal claim
by the United States to territory
in the Antarctic.
Informed officials said yester-
day the President thus went
against an interdepartmental re-
commentator that such a claim
be made.
Eisenhower was represented,
however, as feeling the United
States should continue to insist on
its rights in the South Polar re-
gion, where Americans such as
Rear Adm. Richard E. Byrd have
explored.
Longstanding us. policy is to
withhold recognition of other ma
tions's claims in the Antarctic
and to reserve American rights
there.

Harry Morrison of NIX
Urges Alaska Survey
Potential Power Sites

FAIRBANKS, R-Harry Nor
rison of the worldwide contract
ing firm, Morrison-Knudsen, does
not regard possible development
of hydro-electric power at the
Ramparts of the Yukon River as
too difficult.
Morrison said here yesterday
Alaskans should push for prelim-
mary surveys and studies now so
information will be available
when the time is ripe for con-
struction.
Flying in company plane, Mr..
and Mrs. Morrison visited Xiii
mat, BIC, to view Alcan power
generators. From there they flew
to Laborador where they inspect
ed a new railroad. Before that
they toured the near and far
East where they looked at dozens
of NIX projects.
On Alaska's future, Morrison
commented: "I'm not as optim-
istic as some and not as pessimis-
tic as others. What you need here
is industry like paper and pulp;
development of large ore bodies
- especially in the rare earth
class such as tungsten, thorium
and Others"

Juneau COPS
Challenge Action
OF June Caucus

JUNEAU, lR = An open chal-
lenge of the asserted election of
new Alaska Republican leaders at
the party session at Mt. Mckinley
Park last June was made here
yesterday.
A proclamation to Republicans,
declaring invalid any actions
taken beyond those specified in
the call to the June caucus, was
issued to party members by Ter
ritorial Sen. Elton Engstrom and
Ray Beach Of Juneau. They sign
ed as chairman and secretary, res
pectively, of the party's central
committee.
They said they acted at the ad-
vice of the general counsel of the
Republican National Committee.
Delegates to the June session,
which was called a Caucus" os-
tensibly changed it to a "conven-.
ton" and elected Cash Cole of
Fairbanks as Central Committee
chairman, to replace Engstrom.
The Engstrom-Beach proclama-
ton says the caucus call was for
"the sole and specific purpose of
adopting a platform and formulat-
ing plans for the success of the
Republican party in the 1854 cleo
tions," as specified in the rules
laid down at the 1852 Cordova
convention.
1t said that, therefore, the as
serted adoption" Of new rules
and election" of new officials
constituted a violation of the call
to caucus and of the Cordova
rules.

Up Ailing C.G. Seaman

ian SA-16 made a dramatic open
sea landing Monday to pick up an
ailing San Pedro, Calf, seaman

the Arctic Ocean.
The seaman, identified as Err
nest Kallager, was suffering nasal
hemorrhages resulting from
cold. Doctors at Laid ALB deem
ed immediate evacuation neces-

plane pick up the ailing seaman
from a small lake and bring him
to a Wien Alaska Airlines plane
at Umiat failed.

Air Rescue Squadron headed for
Umiat from Laid, decided on the
open-sea landing. The seaman
was transferred to the amphibian
from a small boat. Cole took off
Just before darkness.
His plane bucked 80 knot winds
on the way back to Fairbanks
over the Brooks Range.

developed deposits on the North
American continent. Estimates of

lion tons.
'Last year U. S. Bureau of
Mines engineer Robert Thorne
said the Ultimate value of the
Klukwan iron deposits compared
'favorably with the national debt
of the United States then more

development of the KlukWan
deposits would make the the 85-
year-old prediction of Secretary of
State William Seward come true
In 1869, the man who purchased
Alaska visited the KlukWan area
and predicted iron deposits there
would some day provide the basis
for an iron and steel industry in

ciples. Therefore, he contended.

Postal Unions Criticized.

rilous and unwarranted attacks

tivities in violation of the Hatch
Act. Postmasters are charged
with the duty of promptly re-
porting any Hatch Act violation
by employees under their juris-
diction to the Civil Service Com

Department Wants Respect.
Mr.. Lyons said the depart
ment's policy "has been and
continues to be one Of friendly
cooperation" with postal en-
ploye leaders regarding working
benefits and problems. In re-
turn, he said, the department
wants courtesy and respect from
the union officials.
Another speaker, John O'Con-

different view on the situation.
Mr.. O'Connor charged that
Post Office Department officials
failed to consult with the postal
employe unions on the contro-
versial postal salary reclassifica-
tion plan. If this had been done,
the bitter controversy could have
been avoided and Federal pay
raise legislation enacted into law

serted, THE teaching profession

Unfair and Un-American.
ut is unfair and un-Ameri-
can," he said, ito call upon
our teachers to serve in crowded
classrooms and in antiquated
structures for inadequate re-
muneration but what is
even worse. the teacher has had
to face the criticism of ignoram-
uses who have gratuitously ques-
toned the teachers patriotism.
Bishop Oman said "self-ap-
pointed illiterates have organ
lied agencies under high sound
ing names for the alleged pur-
poses of saving our schools from
subversion" and have contrib
uted to undermining the very
bastion of the free way of life"
He added:
mo Communist could want
more than to have the American
lose faith in our school system"
Duty of Each Community.
The Bishop said it is the duty
OF each community to mobilize
"the necessary resistance to
these forces of the night" He
also urged that religion be
taught as a classroom subject,
but indorsed as proper the re-
strictions against advocacy Of
any particular creed.
Our children" he said, "have
full right to know that there
is a common father of us all,
that We belong to one family,
and that love must rule to the
end that enduring social unity
may emerge"
