With Your Congressman
DEWITT S. HYDE

Currently the Congress has under
consideration a measure providing
for a military reserve program. The
security of our nation depends on
a Well-rounded defense program
which adequately allows for any
emergency which may confront US.
| would like to stress that the
measure, as it is being considered
is not universal military training
program and it does not increase
the size Of our Armed Forces.
The bills primary purpose is to
insure fair and adequate reserve.
Its authors state that its provisions
will make unnecessary the recall
to active duty of men who have en-
gagged in combat as was done in
Korea. Short of holocaust there
will be no need for mems lives to
be disrupted twice. 1t has stag
gered the reserve responsibilities

Ike Returns 29,118 Acres
In Alaska To Public Lands

WASHINGTON, Up President
Eisenhower issued proclamation
yesterday taking 29,118 acres out
of the Glacier Bay National Mon
ument in Alaska.
The White House said Secre-
tary Of Interior Mckay and Gov
Heintzleman had recommended
the action.
Two separate tracts are includ-
ed in the order: 1894 acres in
the Gustavus area and 1914 on
the east side Of Excursion Inlet.
The first tract includes the
4,308-acre Gustavus airfield, built
during World War H. The order
said lands needed for the field
will be retained while the ball
ance, 8,210 acres, will be made
available for public entry.
The second tract is returned to
Tongass National Forest. The
White House said the area was
included in the monument in 1899
through incorrect description
resulting from inadequate topo-
graphic information" 1t said the
section contains a good stand" of
Sitka spruce and hemlock.
Of the Gustavus area, the state
ment said studies indicate it
might have potentialities for de-
velopment as an agricultural COM
munity.

Democrats Condemn HeintzIeman
For Tie Up In The legislature
BY JIM HUTCHINSON

JUNEAU, IA series of shock
ers hit the Alaska legislature
with stunning impact yesterday
and tension built up rapidly. The
rapid-fire developments included:
/. The territory's Public We'll
fare Dept. activities were report
ed to be nearly at a standstill.
2. An opinion from the u. S.
Atty. Gen. said the territory can
not borrow from the Federal I'm
employment Insurance fund. The
reason-it would violate the Or
ganic Acts provision against in
curing any territorial indebted
ness.
3. Governor Heintzleman sug-
gested to the lawmakers they pass
the appropriation bill and bills
10 authorize a territorial loan to
the Employment Security Com
mission fund and make effective
five-man commission for the
ESQ, and then 60 home
A. The governor said he would
call a second extraordinary SEES
sion later, if no appropriation bill
was passed, after giving mem
bers an opportunity to return to
their homes for much needed rest
and consultation with their con-
stituents."
5. The House said, in a resolu-
ton there would be no Interrupt
ton Of territorial activities be-
cause the appropriations bill had
not been passed.
6. The Democratic Policy Com
mittee held late afternoon
meeting with the governor. A
spokesman for the group seemed
encouraged over the general sit
uation afterwards.
Conflicting Opinions
Earlier in the day, the us.
Atty. Generals opinion, first re-
ported to the legislature by the
Associated Press, came as jolt
to the Senate House committee
which has been reported making
steady progress toward an agree
ment on a compromise Employ
ment Security act
The conferees had been count
