President Asks Congress To Declare
 Our Readiness To Fight" To Keep Formosa Out Of Communists Hands

! WASHINGTON, R- President Eisenhower today asked Congress to declare "our readiness to fight" to keep Formosa out of Red hands and ito engage in whatever oper- ations may be required to carry out that purpose"
 In special message, the Presi- dent said tour purpose is peace" but Red Chinese threats already pose a serious danger to this 'country's security land indeed to the peace of the world"
 A declaration from Congress, Eisenhower said, twill reduce the possibility that the Chinese Com munists, misjudging our firm pur- pose and national unity, might be disposed to challenge the position of the United States and precipi- tate a major crisis which even they would neither anticipate nor desire"
 The President made it plain that defense of Formosa might re- quire hitting the Red Chinese be- fore they left their home ports.
 Eisenhower said the United States and all free nations have a common interest that Formosa and the Pescadores Islands should not fall into Communist hands.
 He did not say specifically which other islands the United States might defend, on the basis of need to hold them for the de- fense of Formosa and the Pes cadores, but he called the Que moy Islands lone of the natural approaches to Formosa."
 He suggested at one point that he perhaps had inherent author ity as commander-in- chief to take most of the actions.
 He told the lawmakers:
 Until Congress can act I would not hesitate, so far as my con- stitutional powers extend, to take whatever emergency action might be forced upon us in order to protect the rights and security of the United States"
 But congressional declaration. he said, would make clear the unified serious intentions of our government, our congress and our people" and perhaps deter the Chinese Reds.

TOllefsOn Cites MSTS For. flaming Private Autos
By FRANK w. vAILLE

WASHINGTON, Achievement of private automobiles by the Military Sea Transport Service cost the government more last year than the total of operating subsidies paid the entire U. $. merchant marine, Rep. Tollefson R-Wash) said today.
 Tollefson, ranking Republican member of the House Merchant Marine Committee, cited the automobile shipments as an ex- ample of the government com petition with commercial shipping he hopes to correct through a bill prepared for introduction today
 The bill is in the nature of a policy statement and would di- rect the military to use privately owned shipping to the extent such shipping is available.
 He said he believes present pol icy and practice of MSTS "goes beyond it's stated principle" of having under military control sufficient vessels ito lift the mini mum essentials of vital supplies, equipment and personnel to the armed forces in overseas areas. ''
 Asserting MSTS movement of private automobiles for service men and civilian government en- ployes overseas had increased from 13,2O4 in 1948 to 71,667 in 1854, Tollefson said:
 This certainly does not fall within the meaning of the term minimum essential of vital SUD- splies, equipment and personnel ,
 Tollefson cited as another ex- ample of MSTS competition with private shipping the decision of Alaska Steamship Co., last fall to abandon it's passenger service to Alaska.
 Pm not so sure but what Alaska Steamship could have stayed in the passenger business" he said, had it been able to carry the passengers moved on MSTS yes sels to Alaska"

Opening of 22nd Legislature Marked By Harmony and Lack of Factionalism
By JAMES HUTCHINSON

LlOn TOT tuS CuAldAA1 Ao1oAiAS OAA NAA~ 22nd session of the territorial legislature today
 The major activity was a caucus of the Democratic sen- ators in an attempt to agree on a majority choice for president of the Senate. After a two hour session, it was reported Senator James Nolan of Wrangell had the inside track for the post.
 Nolan Edges LYng
 It was understood poll dur ing the caucus showed Nolan drawing more support than Sen. Howard Lyng of Nome, the 'sdean" of the Senate.
 House Democrats also held a caucus and participants said later it was marked by all-around har- mony and lack of factionalism.
 Rep. Wendell Kay, Anchorage attorney, whose selection had been a foregone conclusion, was the majority choice for Speaker. Rep. Richard Greuel, second term legislator from Fairbanks, was chosen to serve as House major ity leader.
 The House Democrats also ap- proved a plan advanced by Greuel for a reduction in the unwieldy number of committees.
 Only i2 House Committees
 The dozen House committees under the new plan will compare with about 20 in previous ses- sions. The number of members on each committee will also be re- duced in a move aimed at stream lining them for greater efficiency.
 Although there are only three Republicans in the House, the Democrats said they had decided one Republican should be on each committee. There are 21N Demo- cratic members.
 Meanwhile, Gov Heintzleman spent part of his Sunday work ing on the final draft of the message he will deliver to the joint session of the two branches after they are organized. It will be the first message from Re publican governor in more than 20 years.
 He said he had talked with a number of Democratic leaders and, commented "I am convinced members of the legislature have come here with desire to act in behalf of the welfare and ad- vancement of the Territory of Alaska"
 LYng Calls for Unity
 A call for party unity was sounded by Senator Lyng at a Saturday night Democratic din ner. The Nome legislator told the group:
 We have had differences in the past, but now is the time to bury past differences on the basic issues, so we can face them with unanimity."
 Henry Roden had a word of admonition for his successor as Territorial Treasurer at the Dem- ocrat;c. get-together.
 Tn taking issue with criticism by Senator Lyng of the state of the territory's affairs under Re publican rule, a Democrat, who has been treasurer several terms, said:
 II hope Hugh Wade (who, incl dentally, is also Democrat will leave as much in the treasury when he goes out of office as he finds there when he goes in"

NEW YORK, Jan. 29.-The
National Football League took
several steps at today's closing
session of their three-day an
nual meeting that indicated the
pros were moving in to take
charge of the Chicago All-Star
game. which was pretty much of
a flop last year, and run it their
own way.
| The pro club owners, who pre-
viously had agreed to provide
professional coaching for the
College All-Star team. voted to-
day, to allow the All-Stars one
practice scrimmage against a
NFL team prior to the e-season
exhibition, provided the game
itself it played under professional
rules
Then. for the benefit Of the
clubs which want to survey
rookie talent, they voted tenn
porary increase to 35 men in the
player limit to apply to players
on the All-Star squad.
At the same time, the old
guard of the league beat of an
effort to increase permanently
the player limit to IS men.
The player limit was kicked
around like an old football be-
fore the IL clubs agreed to let
each team carry two players
from the All-Star game for the
first two league games OF the
season. All will have at least two
on the squad. and in the past
there have been loud protests
that participation in the game
handicaps a youngster trying to
land pro berth.
