ALASKA MENTAL HEALTH BILL PASSES SENATE

WASHINGTON -LP- The Sem ate yesterday passed on a voice vote a bill authorizing Alaska to set up it's own facilities for treat ment for its mentally i'll.
 r Stripped from the House-passed version of the bill were procedures under which it was proposed Alas ka govern it's commitment program.
 Because of controversy over these provisions, the Senate com mittee removed them from the bill and inserted a provision authoriz- ing the Alaska Legislature to draft the commitment program.
 Under the bill. the Territory would receive 612 million dollars to finance construction of treat ment facilities. million dollars over 10-year period to ease it's way into the financial burden of the program and the right to selec- tion of one million acres of public land with which to develop rev. enues to aid it further in assum- ing the programs costs.
 No Political Siberia
 Sen. Jackson (D-Wash.D chair man of the Territories subcommit- tee which handled the bill, said the measure was "as widely misinter- preted as any legislation ever tu come before Congress- ''
 He added there was absolutely no foundation for contentious Dy some opponents of the bill that it would permit creation of a "pol- cal Siberia" in Alaska to which governors of the As states could send political enemies.
 He said this impression arose from an erroneous interpretation of the standard reciprocity provision included in the bill which would permit the governor of Alaska to make an agreement with another governor for the exchange of resi- dents of one state who become i'll in the other
 Equally baseless, he said, was the contention the million acre land grant would be used for facilities to care for the mentally ill. He said the grant was no different than similar grants to western states for the development of railroads, school support and other purposes.
 Sen. Neuberger (D-Ore), who in- troduced a similar bill in the Sen ate, said the proposal had his sup port even though it would mean loss of a payroll for his state.

The Suez crisis has had one
favorable consequence in the eyes
Of partisans of European integra-
ton. BY underscoring Western
Europe's complete dependence on
foreign energy sources, they feel, it
has proved beyond argument the
truth Of their warnings that bleak
and uncertain future is the only al
tentative to the establishment of a
pool for the development of atomic
power.
Even with an uninterrupted flow
of oil. energy requirements of the
European continent are fast over
reaching the supply. BY 1875,
recent study by the European Or
ganization for Economic Co-opera-
ton points out, the situation could
become critical. The only way out,
apparently, is fast development of
atomic energy. And since this task
is far beyond the economic strength
of any one country, say the inte-
grationists, it is essential that a
joint effort be made right now.
Efforts to establish a European
Atomic Energy Community-"Eura-
tom"-have been going on since
1854, and for some months the In
tergovernmental Commission Of
Belgium, Germany, Italy, Luxem-
bourg and the Netherlands mas
been trying to reach an accord.

we're effected under the Lloyd-La-
Toilette Act, which does not re-
quire that the individual be given
a hearing on the Governments be-
lief there is a reasonable doubt as
to his loyalty.
There may be other reasons. The
fact remains, however, that no re-
moval action is being taken.
The Justice Departments Inter-
nal Security Division last summer
made big effort to come up with a
revised program which would pro-
tect the Governments security and
provide adequate safeguards for the
individuals rights-in the spirit of
the Cole decision. But after Cir
culation Of a rough draft to the
Civil Service Commission and the
Defense Department, it was obvious
that there was not going to be any
early agreement on the problem.
To further complicate things. the
draft plan did not have Mr.. Brow
nell's full Endorsement.
Justice officials, who say that the
matter of revising security proceed
ures is under constant and con-
tinuing" study, take the attitude

that the program from here on out
is really the Civil Service Commits
sion's responsibility. They reason
that the screening of the 2.3 million
Federal workers now on the job is
virtually complete and that the
problem now is more or less con-
fined to Job applicants.
Young Approises Impoct
Mr.. Young underlined his interest
in this aspect of the situation in a
letter to Representative Murray.
Chairman of the House Civil Service
Committee. last summer. He wrote:
1.-THE impact of the courts deci-
sion on the present program will be
strongest perhaps in the area Of
new appointments. Each month be-
tween 10000 and $1,000 new APP
pointments are made in the Federal
service. AS a result of the courts
decision, 10000 to 1900 of these
appointees may no longer be tested
against the established security
standard in accordance with the
established security procedure
(under E.O. 10450) because they
will be occupying nonsensitive po-
sitionS.
Experience has shown that at
least in 200 of these cases each
month. or 2,400 year, there arises
questions Of subversive activities re-
quiring a full field investigation by
the FBI."
This is one Of the principal rea-
sons Mr.. Young would like a return
to the pre-Cole decision security
program.
Although the Commission on
Government Security, 12-member
panel, has until next June 80 to
report to Congress, there have been
recent estimates that they may
finish by late March.
Just what sort of a program will
be recommended by the commits

lecture. But at least two commits

ter, Democrat of Pennsylvania, the
chairman of the House Un-Ameri-
can Activities Committee. and Sem
