EISENHOWER
 DENOUNCES
 SOVIET THREAT

WASHINGTON, LR -- President Eisenhower today denounced as completely indefensible a Russian threat to inflict a destructive blow on Norway should it become an anticommunist military base.
 Eisenhower told a news con- ference the United States recog- nizes the right of any nation in the world to take measures for it's own defense.
 He said he regards the state ments of the Russians as com pletely indefensible, although saying he knows of no purpose or plan which would lead to the kind of thing the Soviets were talking about.
 Eisenhower was commenting on letter from Russian Premier Nikolai Bulganin to Premier Einar Gerhardsen of Norway warning that country not to allow it's terri tory to be used as a base against Russia.
 Norway is a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organiza- tion NATO) and might eventual ly obtain from the United States missiles capable of carrying atom ic warheads.
 Bulganin said the Soviet Union would react against aggressive" action by taking "the most ener- getic measures to inflict a de- structive blow against the aggres- sors and also against bases sit uated near our borders"
 Simultaneously, William Ran dolph Hearst IT,, editor chief of the Hearst newspapers, ex- pressed belief Norway would fight if necessary to back up her com mitments under NATO.
 Hearst made study for a spe- cial Senate committee studying froeign aid last fall. He told the group today Norway didn't have to join NATO but "did so of it's own free will"

JUNEAU, LR - An appropria- tion bill calling for general fund expenditures of $36,507 ,264.36 was passed by the House Monday and sent to the Senate.
 The budget bill whizzed through the lower chamber without change after it's introduction ear Her in the day by the Ways and Means Committee.
 In addition to the general fund appropriation, the bill sets out $588,O27.95 for use from the spe- cial Territorial Highway Fund,
 The House took no action on three other bills introduced along with the appropriation measure Monday by the Ways and Means Committee.
 One of the companion bills was a measure calling for hike in the territorial income tax from 12.5 per cent to 15 per cent of an in dividual's federal income taxes.
 It was designed as means of balancing the budget for the 1957- 59 biennium, which is expected to be about five million dollars in the red unless a major revenue meas ure is approved before the Legis- lature adjourns Thursday.
 The other two bills yesterday would set salary limits on key territorial officials, and would regulate the number of school teachers and provide formula for figuring teacher salaries and so on.

House Again Attempts 3-Man Board
 Solution for Employment Commission

JUNEAU, R - The Territorial House made new bid last night to reconstruct the Employment Security Commission into a three man board.
 The action came on an amend ment to Senate-approved bill which would revise some of the technical language of the present act and raise the taxable base for contributions to the unemploy- ment compensation fund.
 Here's what happened:
 The House more than a week ago passed a bill to abolish the present five-man ESC board, in favor of a new commission of three men.
 The members of the board would have been appointed by the governor from lists submitted by the Territorial Federation of La bor, by the All-Alaska Chamber of Commerce and by the Alaska Bar Assn.
 Last Saturday, the Senate re- fused to pass that bill in an 8-8 vote. A motion Sunday to rescind
The Nome nugget., 1957-03-27

the vote ended in another tie and the bill died.
 Meanwhile, the House had started work on Senate-approved bill which would make a number of changes in the present act.
 As the House added it's amend ments to the bill, Rep. George McNaibb O-Fairbanks) salvaged the three-man board from the scrap heap and moved for it's inclusion in the Senate bill. The amendment was adopted after a hot debate.
 Other changes, likely to be more readily accepted when the bill goes back to the Senate for concur renee in the House amendments, include the exemption of pro- fessional hospital employees, such as nurses and technicians, from coverage under the act.
 Left unchanged by the House was the proposed new taxable wage base of $4,200 a year III up from the present $3,6OO year. The House also did not alter the employer contributions rate of 2.7 per cent of the taxable base or the employe contribution of one-half of one per cent.
 If enacted, the employe con- tributions wuold be retroactive to Jan. 1 of this year - when they were discontinued under terms of the 1855 act.

MistIetoe Subject of Many Controversies

The mistletoe, alternately sym Eaol of good and evil, has contro- 'wersial background. Known today S2 a criminal killer of forests, it is 1till used as a symbol of love. peacemaking and goodwill.
 According to legend, this is how inc fnistIetoe became a symbol of love: The ancient Scandinavian light god, Balder, so the myth goes, was killed by Loki with a gnistletoe arrow after the beloved Balder's mother had evoked a romise from all other living ahings that they would not harm her son. Balder was restored to life by the intercession of other gods who entrusted the mistletoe plant to the goddess of love and she ordained that henceforth any one passing b en cath it's bough should receive a kiss in token of Asve, not vengeance.

Let Children Help Prepare for Holiday

Children learn the real meaning Di Christmas when you let them participate in preparations and ac- Aayities.
 Making gifts for someone special Is project that even a three-year- uId can do. Children can fill pretty Jars with sand to make attractive doorstops. They can make clove apples to add spice to handker- chief drawers. Even their simple drawings make gifts that parents cherish.
 Baking cookies and making Christmas decorations also ptat sahildren in spirit of things. And gwen small children can string popcorn and cranberries for tree &yirnmings.
 Deeper Meaning
 Making Christmas cards shows children that there is more to the cards than the actual sending, You particularly want friends to know you are thinking of them at Christ xnas time, and children can learn &sais early.
 Music is part of Christmas and @eFers another opportunity to put zzasaning into the holiday for chil- &Fen. who enjoy singing.

District Highway Director J,
N. Robertson today was to sign
an $4,000 contract with the
Clarkeson Engineering Corp.
to locate a District link with q

Clarkeson already has signed
the agreement, Mr.. Robertson
said.
1t calls on the Boston eng

needs and roadways tying In
with Kansas avenue and Bla-

The new highway would link
the planned inner loop around
the central business district
with a point about five miles
north Of the District line.
The inner loop tie would be

would like to be a member
of it.
Questioned about what his
committee report meant by
subversive activities, he said
the term would have to remain
underlined until the committee
members got down to drafting
a bill to introduce in the As
sembly calling for establish
ment Of the committee.
Mr.. Thomson said that the
new committee should be au-
thorized to investigate SUBJ
versive activities generally, and
specifically as they. relate to
indignation or segregation In
public schools.
Books Probe Opposed
The four area legislators also
took a dim view of the COM
mittee's suggestion for a probe
of school books.
II have complete confidence
in the State Board of Education
on textbooks and equal conf
dence in the localities to run
their own schools and know
what is going on" Mrs. Stone
said.
Mr.. Hirst said he feels the
State Board of Education is
mot only competent but vigil
liant" and there is mo reason
to question its competence in
this matter"
Mr.. Webb said that the Gen.
eral Assembly refused to au-
thorize an investigation of the
school system when Mr.. Thorn
sons committee was set UP.
1.-The Governor and the State
Board of Education have all the
authority they need now in the
field of school books. 1t shocks
me to think that Mr.. Thomson
is saying the Governor and
board of education aren't look
ing out for the best interests
of the State or are allowing
subversive material to get into
the Schools" Mr.. Webb said.
Prejudicial Books Cited
Senator Donovan said there
is room for improvement" in
some of the teaching materials
but that he does not know of
any need to investigate school
books so far as indignation or
segregation is concerned.
Mr.. Thomson said his COM
mittee did not have time to in
vestigate books. but a cursory
examination made by one of his
investigators showed that there
are many books in school Ii
braries promoting indignation
He said some of these books are
about as highly prejudicial as
you can find"

1t recommends that three or
four. small parks be established
in the "old town" section. The
parks. it says, would be a
great asset to this attractive
historical section"
The report recommends that
the city work with Arlington
and Fairfax Counties in the
development of -Four Mile Run,
Hunting Greek and Cameron
Run. 1t says that Federal funds
may be available for those
under the Capper-Crampton
Act.
Ike for Jones Point
1t also recommends that the
Government owned Jones
Point be used for recreational
purposes and that the city ex-
plore the possibility of making
a recreational area out of the
Occoquan Reservoir, several
miles south of Alexandria,
which is the source of water
supply for the city.
A program of swimming pool
construction also is recon-
mended because the city's pres
ent two pools are too far re-
moved from most of the popu-
lation.
The program conducted by
the recreation department has
been restricted. 1t has APP
pealed primarily to a rather
limited age group. Because of
lack of areas and facilities it
has been able to serve only a
limited geographical area and,
consequently. has served only
a portion of the population, to
which its activities have been
confined. There is great
need to expand the program
to meet the recreation needs of
all age groups, as we'll as the
children. More activities for
girls and for young and older
adults should be included.
There should be more indoor
activities during the winter"

tional Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People is
practicing law illegally. The
committees findings on NAACP
activities are to be turned over
to the State bar for possible
disbarment proceedings.
No Need for Probe Seen
Omer Hirst and John Webb,
State Delegates from Fairfax
County, said the report sub
stantiated their previous con-
tentions that there was no need
for the committee to be set
up in the first place.
Mr.. Hirst and Mr.. Webb said
that the State bar had the
power all along to deal with
any unethical law practices and
this could be done without the
Thomson committee.
Mr.. Thomson said yesterday
that he expected the State bar
would institute disbarment pro-
ceedings in the localities where
desegregation suits have been
filed. He said the illegal law
practices involved solicitation
of clients and payments Of at
torney fees and court costs by
the NAACP.
Mrs. Kathryn Stone, Airing

gates also indicated they would
not go along with setting up
another committee to investi-
gate Subversive activities.
Careful weighing Urged
This is a very broad pro-
posal; the General Assembly
should consider it most care
fully" said Mr.. Hirst. He added
that he believes investigation
of subversive activities are bet
ter handled by congressional
committees and the Federal
Government than by the Gen.
eral Assembly.
Mr.. Donovan said he is
against any kind of a COM
mittee which would break down
the checks and balances be-
tween the three branches of
the Government" He added
that he would oppose any COM.

the prerogatives of the grand
