Ike Says US. Will Use A-Weapons In Any Future Wars

WASHINGTON, R President Eisenhower said today he sees no reason why atomic weapons should not be used in any conflict where they can be directed against strictly military targets.
 With the news conference state ment Eisenhower backed up Sec retary of State Dulles who said yesterday he thought tactical atomic weapons would be em- ployed in any major military ac- ton involving the United States.
 By law, only President Eisen- hover can make a decision on use of atomic weapons.
 The significance of Dulles statement and of the Presidents comment appeared to be that any future war, big or little, in which the United States engages will be an atomic war to some extent.
 Eisenhower also dealt with these other topics:
 Politics President said he agrees with Vice President Nixon that the Republican party needs strengthening. But Eisenhower ducked a fresh attempt to find out whether he will run again next year.
 Taxes -Hurrahl That was the Presidents one word reaction when asked to comment on Sen ate defeat yesterday of Demo- cratic proposals to cut income taxes. The House has voted a $20 income tax cut for everybody, so differences between that measure and the Senate bill must now be recOnciled.
 Immigration Law Eisenhower repeated that he has recommend ed revision of the McCarran-W Wal ter Immigration Act, but made no specific reply to a question as to whether he would ask Atty. Gen. Brownell to draft revision legis- latiOn.

Railroads Requested To Reduce Rates On Alaska Bound Freight To Parity
 With Rates to Hawaii and Foreign Ports

WASHINGTON, lRt-The Gen eral Services Administration ask ed the Interstate Commerce Com mission yesterday to require rail- roads to reduce their rates on freight bound for Alaska to parity with transcontinental rates on freight shipped through Pacific Northwest ports to Hawaii and foreign ports.
 GSA said some rates for trans continental movement of freight are more than twice as much as the export-import rate on Ha- vivian and foreign shipments.
 Administrator Edmund Man sure said potential savings have been figured as high as one mil lion dollars year on the gov- ernment's heavy shipments if the railroads are required to treat Alaskan freight the same as Ha- vivian and foreign freight ship ped through the northwest ports
 GSA cited higher rates requir- ed on shipments to Seward i'll comparison with similar ship mentS to Honolulu and Yoko- hama, Japan
 Rail movement within the United States of northbound freight was said to cost 43 per cent more on preserved food stuffs, 53 per cent more on classi- fication freight Gall kinds), and 120 per cent more on machinery.

Controversial School Bus Measure To Become Law Without Cows Signature

JUNEAU, LR - Alaska school buses will be required to pick up students attending private schools under a measure to become terri torial law in 90 days.
 Gov Heintzleman notified both House and Senate yesterday he would allow the controversial bill passed by both branches to be- come law without his signature.
 In most cases the private schools involved will be paro- chial institutions. It has also been an issue in most of the states.
 The governor acted after re- ceiving an opinion from Atty. Gen. J. Gerald Williams, which concluded:
 Tt is my recommendation to you to permit House Bill 40 to become law and thereby institute the means whereby the Alaskan courts may be given the oppor- tunity to pass upon the constitu- tional issue. The ultimate judicial decision in this matter, whether it strikes down or upholds the statute, will clear the air of the existing confusion that has sur rounding this perplexing problem in the territory for the past sev- eral years"
 The attorney general said the Organic Act prohibits the terri tory from taking action for the benefit of private schools, but there is no prohibition against it if it is judged to be for the benefit of the children instead.
 The attorney general cited de- isions by supreme courts of states that have held directly opposing views on whether the benefit is for the schools or the children.

Snow and Cold Delays Mail SnOWmObile In Northern B. C.

FORT ST. JAMES, B.C., LR - Snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night may not have stayed Herodotus when he wrote those lines in 431 BIC. about the post office boys but, by golly, he never had to contend with this British Columbia climate
 DL. Jones, a mail carrier for the northern BIC. area, now is preparing for his fifth try at snowmObiling the 40 mile mail run to Manson Creek and Ger mansen Landing.
 On his last attempt, Jones fought his way through deep powder snow and 5-below-zero temperature for 72 hours, aver aging slightly over one mile an hour. He had to give up and come back.
 At times his snowmobile, ski equipped vehicle, sank so deep in the powdery snow that it stalled and Jones was forced to pack the trail ahead with snowshoes and skis.
 Fort St. James is 33O miles north of Vancouver, B.C.

Arctic Club Desires AS Many Teams As Possible Run In April 3rd Race

The Arctic Club which IS SpOn- soring a dog race on April 3, is interested in having those who wish to participate, get their en- tries in as soon as possible al though the deadline is March 26.
 They wish to make it clear that they are not looking for record breaking teams or speed demons of any kind. They are sponsoring the race just for fun and hoping to revive interest in the sport which originated here in Nome 55 years ago.
 Five dogs are all that are need ed states the committee and as there are no racing teams in town it's anybody's chance to win $50. It is not necessary to own all five dogs as teams may be made up of any kind of dogs.

Grew Refuses Sail Finnish Tanker To Red China

HELSINKI, Finland, R - The Finnish Seamen's Union amour ced today the crew of the tanker Aruba will strike rather than sail the ship and it's cargo of jet fuel to Communist China.
 The union said as a result of Nationalist China threats and the JUN. ban on strategic materials to the Chinese Reds "the ship finds itself in danger of getting in volved in actions of war"
 It called on the tanker's Fin nish owners to direct the ship to a safe port" The union an- nouncement said the crew has re- fused to sail the ship to Singapore. The east bound ship is believed to be somewhere in the Indian Ocean.
 Finnish shipping circles sug- gested the owners, the Re-Be Shipping Co.,, might divert the Aruba to Indonesia for reloading of the 13,OOO-ton cargo on to other China-destined ships.
 A spokesman for the shipping company said no action could be taken yet to divert the ship be- cause no strike warning had been received from the crew.
 The Aruba picked up it's load of jet fuel from the Romanian port of Constanza, on the Black Sea. When it sailed for Red China early this month, US. congress- men launched a series of protests and the Chinese Nationalists on Formosa said they would inter cept the tanker.
 The Finnish government said it was powerless to stop the Aruba.

Senate-House Differences On ESC Legislation Must Be Resolved by Conference
 Rv HIM HTTTcHESON
By JIM HUTCHINSON

JUNEAU, lR-The long-expect- ed House Senate collision on Un- employment Security legislation has occurred but without fire works.
 As anticipated neither branch agreed to accept the others yer sion at the showdown yesterday and the issue must now be re- solved by a conference committee.
 The House asked the Senate to name such a group with the pow CT of free conference which means that the redraft the con- ferees finally decide upon must be accepted or rejected in toto, with no changes.
 House Speaker Wendell Kay and Senate President James No Ian were thus put on the spot as they must name the two com mittees.
 Tn other activity, the House completed legislative work on IS Senate bills during the day.
 The liveliest controversy arose over a measure that was finally sent back to committee. It would allow cities to class sewer systems the same as utilities and make a charge for their use. Opponents said it might be an unfair burden on the public and supporters argued it was way for cities to pay the cost of extending such systems.

Members of Commons Expel Aneurin Bevan From Labor Party

LONDON, LP - Laborite mem bers of parliament kicked left winger Aneurin Bevan out of their ranks today on charges of disloyalty. This isolates him as an independent in the House of Commons.
 The 57-year-old Welsh orator, a former coal miner, was reported to have told a secret meeting of Labor members of parliament he would never ask for reinstate- ment.
 The action came on a motion to withdraw the whip" from Bevan, meaning to remove the party label.
 This disciplinary move was sponsored by the moderate sup porters of former Prime Minister Clement Attlee, the party's 72- year-old official leader. He has been subject to repeated attacks from Bevan and his followers in the last three years.
 Attlee's supporters rejected a last minute attempt to get Bevan off with a reprimand.
 The outcome was a triumph for Attlee, but it may prove a costly victory. Observers believed the split would dash the Labor party's hope of defeating Prime Minister Churchill's Conservatives in the next general election, which Churchill must call before Octo- Der 1856 and perhaps will call this year.

Eleven Rare Penguins
 From South Polar Regions EnrOute Washington Zoo

MIAMI, Fla, R R- Eleven rare Emperor PenguinS from the South Polar regions arrived here today enroute to Washington to become the only known members of their species in captivity
 The rare birds were picked up by crewmen of the U.S.S. Atka, a Navy icebreaker, on its expedi- ton to the Antarctic.
 The Atka brought the penguins to Buenos Aires where they were transferred to a Pan American cargo clipper for the 4,6OO-mile flight to Miami.
 Malcomb Davis, curator of birds at the National Geological Park of the Smithsonian Institute in Washington met the birds here
 'The real hazard to their sur vival is contaminated air in tenn perate climates" Davis said "They quickly develop respira- tory diseases and die unless kept in air-conditioned cages"
 Feeding is a problem only for the first few weeks during which they must be forcibly fed only until they learn to eat without diving deep in the sea for food
 The Emperor, smaller than his cousin, the King Penguin, weighs about so pounds and stands about three feet They are. believed to live as long as 50 years in their native habitat.

Eisenhower Says National Defense Reasons Preclude Statehood For Alaska

WASHINGTON, R- President Eisenhower reiterated at his news conference today he believes there are certain reasons why AL aska should not become a state now.
 The President was told that in September 1850 he was quoted as favoring statehood for Alaska. A reporter wanted to know why the President now has changed his mind about bringing Alaska into the union at this time
 Eisenhower recalled that since taking office he has said several times that he believes there are certain reasons why Alaska should not become a state now. Nothing has occurred to change his thinking on that, he added
 In 1850, Eisenhower said, he was not responsible for security of the United States, as he is now. He said there are national secur- ity reasons which would have to be removed before he would favor statehood for the territory
