Mansfield Sees
Foreign Aid Cut

Senator Mansfield, Democrat,
of Montana said yesterday Con-
gress is likely to slice at least
10 per cent from the Eisenhower
administrations new $3.5 billion
foreign aid bill.
Senator Mansfield, a Foreign
Relations committeeman, Sc
verely criticized a $200-million
Asian development fund re-
quested by Eisenhower as part of
the program. He said it would
give the President unprecedented
powers with no time limit on
spending that money"
Senator Smith, Republican, of
New Jersey, also a member Of
the committee which is now
scrutinizing the new aid program
for the year starting July /, said
in separate interview that there
must be a reduction in foreign
aid personnel, particularly
abroad"
"They inevitably get in more
people than they need" the Sen
ator added. I'm going to sup
port the authority asked in the
bill for a drastic reduction in
personnel"
He did not advocate a cut in
funds, however.
The new aid bill would give
special custer authority to John
B. HOLSTER. named to head the
international Cooperation Ad-
ministration when it comes into
existence July l. Democrats have
denounced the requested power
as a threat to civil service and
a destroyer of morale.

Congress Reaction Mixed
On AT Academy Design

porter he heard someone say
the academy looks like a mod
ernistic cigarette factory. I'm
not saying that's my idea, but
let's call it unique"
Senator Welker. Republican,
Of Idaho, described the design
to a newsman as heavenly. I
have nothing but thrills in my
heart for the cadets who will
enjoy this academy"
The models were unveiled at
the Colorado Springs Fine Arts
Center by Secretary of Air Tai
bolt.
"Strive for Beauty"
Nathaniel A. OWingS of Chi
cago, member of the architec-
tural firm of Skidmore, Owlngs
& Merrill, said the job of the
architects was "to strive for
timeless beauty inculcated in an
efficient machine"
He said the largest building
group will be no more than so
to 70 fee thigh. This will stand
against the 7,O00-foot-high back
drop of mountains that will over
shadow any naan-made archi-
lecture in the area" OWings said.
Some 80 buildings were de-
picted. not including service
structures to be built on the air
field.
One of the dominant struc-
lures, the cadet chapel, appeared
as a radical style. But Louis
Skidmore, senior partner in the
architecture firm, said that
model was "only a block of
wood''-"that isn't the final de-
sign" 1t appeared to be two
upright, accordion-lik pieces of
wood bordered as though cut
with pinking shears.
Representative Short, Repub-
lican, of Missouri, told a report
er he thought the chapel, on a
dominant knoll in the academy
area of 1880 acres, should be
much higher, a spire of spiritual
inspiration"
Under present plans. the first
buildings will be ready for &C.
cupancy in 1857. However, the
first class of 800 academy cadets
will be enrolled September II at
Lowry Air Force Base in Dem
yer, temporary home of the
academy until the buildings are
ready.

 Loes; girl ]. king ee ne the title of tsais story acal girl is Carol Tolbert, X nre- sently attending the Beach City College, Business Tacb- nology Division. In her srst year at the school, she was elected to the position of Bushes Manheer of the Collegian, the school paper school paper.
 On graduation from 1se High School at Kodiak, she was business manager of the senior year book. Channel Light" She also had the distinction of serving as president of her sophomore, junior and senior high school classes.
 Carol has entered wholehearted- ly into the activities of the Long Beach school. She has become a member of the Theta Sorority, won first prize in design announce ment contest, and was introduced and served as narrator of some scenic movies of Alaska, presented before the student body this week. The movies were taken by Paul Slower of the Alaska Road Commis- sion.
 Miss Tolbert is fervently study ing business administration with the hope of some day becoming partner in her fathers construc- tion business here in Kodiak. He is Jay Tolbert, who is a well-known citizen of Kodiak, having lived here for 9 years. Tolbert operates the Shelikof Construction Com pany.
 The Kodiak girl was featured in a story, complete with pictures, in the Independent, Independent So- ciety newspaper, Long Beach. She apparently is giving the students the lowdown on Alaska and Kodiak in particular, according to the ar ticle, dispelling views held of Ko- diak as an Eskimo village and a town of igloos.
 Carol expects to garner enough of her required subjects for an as- sociate of arts degree in three se- mesters, according to the article, leaving her fourth semester free for courses in business machines which she feels will better equip her to take her place as bookkeep- CT in the construction firm.

years he had supported himself by translations

On the morning of that long awaited day

tremendous and surprising would take place
He relaxed in his bath and was about to turn
off the hot water when the concierge of his

Southern Statehood Supporter
 Says Alaskans Delude Selves By
 Believing Own Own Propaganda

WASHINGTON, R-A New Or-S leans businessman feels Alaska statehood supporters have 'done ourselves a disservice by believ- ing our own propaganda that statehood is inevitable.
 Instead of inching closer to statehood, it's getting away from us," says George H. Lehleitner who comedies he's "rare" among Southerners for advocacy of state hood.
 Passing through Washington en- route to convention in Pennsyl- vania, the Louisianan eagerly talked statehood with newsmen at luncheon with Delegate Bartlett. He was reluctant, however, to dis cuss a proposal with which he has been connected - to inject ''the unusual" into the statehood pie ture by having the territory elect senators and representatives and send them That in hand" to Con- gress to seek admission of Alaska to statehood.
 That's something that should come from Alaska" he declared. T hope to present the idea to the constitutional convention dele gates meeting in Alaska. The rest is up to them"
 From his remarks, however, it was easy to see the Louisiana businessman is an advocate of the direct and dramatic approach to jar the statehood question out of it's stalemate.
 He said he sees nothing in the

immediate future to offset the hurdles which statehood must clear. Among these, he said, are the closely divided Congresses which prevent either party from putting across statehood; the fear by members from states of static population that the House seats taken by Alaska or Hawaii might come from their own state; and the disproportionate power of the traditional Southern opposition.
 It was easy, too, to see that Leihleitner believes statehood ad- vocates have been too passive in their support.
 "The only real fire injected into the statehood fight" he said, "has been put into it by the opponents. They don't just object-they're militant in their opposition.

Sen. May Ask CAA Be Taken From Commerce Dept.

WASHINGTON, JAP - s h. Monroney D-Okla) said Tuesday he may ask Congress to take the Civil Aeronautics Administration from "the political control and ground minded administration" of Commerce Department chiefs.
 Monroney specifically mention ed in his statement Secretary of Commerce Weeks and Undersec- retary Louis $. Rothschild. He ac- cused them Monday of forcing out Frederick B. Lee as CAA head in an effort to assume ''cZar like powers" to control civil aviation.
 The Commerce Department de- nied that either political consid- eration" or personal malice" was involved in Lees custer. The statement, issued by Rothschild, said decision was reluctantly reached that someone better suit ed in leadership, talent and team work was required"
 Monroney, who already has an- nounced the Senate Commerce Committee will inquire into the Lee matter next month, said in statement he is considering the introduction of bill" to strip the Commerce Department of all con- trol over CAA.
 ''The vital progress of aviation cannot be tied to the old coal burning locomotive days Weeks seems to live in," Monroney said.
 ''We must not have political control of such things as aviation safety, approval of new type air craft, regulation of our airways, improvements in instrument land ing for bad weather, and the dew elopment of an adequate system of airports."
 Monroney has said he believes Lee was fired because he SUD- ported bill to authorize federal appropriation of GA million dol lars for each of the next four years to aid in airport construc- tion. The senator said Weeks op- posed the bill.
