Statehood Hearing Gets Views of Mining Head on Resources Laws
By FRANK w. vAILLE

WASHINGTON, R - Condi- tions imposed on the disposition of mineral land in proposed Alas ka statehood bills would ire parably damage the development of Alaska's mineral resources" an industry spokesman said today.
 The contention was voiced by Glen D. Franklin, chairman of the Alaska Miners Assn. legislative committee, in a statement pre- pared for a House territories sub committee hearing on statehood.
 Enactment of mineral provi- sions of the bills. the former Fairbanks Legislator said. would for many years reduce tax re- ceipts and other state revenue bills from inc mineral indus try"
 Present bills before the commit tee would permit Alaska to select as tax base 1O3, ,35O,OO0 acres of lands not already reserved by the federal government for other pur- poses. It could dispose of mineral rights conveyed in the bill only by lease.
 Franklin said the bill also pro- vides that no disposition of the mineral rights or inc land may take place until outside peri meters of the selected tracts have been surveyed.
 He said these provisions should be changed to permit the proposed state to decide in what manner it wished to dispose of mineral rights to conform with it's adopted con- stitution, and to permit it to dis pose of selected lands without waiting the completion of perime- tre surveys.
 Franklin said it would be pos sible for any qualified mining en- gineer with Alaska experience Sin the space of a few hours" to out line 50 million to 50 million acre area "that would include all the known and probable major mneralized areas in Alaska"
 This simple act of claiming. he said. would effectively close down this area 10 any prospect ing and development"
 He said the required surveys by every conservative st i m e" would require IS to 20 years to complete.

Freight Train Hits Truck While Driver Frantically Honks at Slow Traffic

LOS ANGELES, R - While George John Ward honked and honked his horn, hoping to get the motorist ahead to turn around and size up the situation, a Southern Pacific freight train bore down on Wards truck and trailer, demol- ishing them.
 Ward told police he couldn't get off the tracks because the motor ist in front of him calmly waited for a traffic signal to change. He paid no attention to Wards horn and shouts. When the signal changed, the unidentified moto- ist ahead drove away as if nothing had happened.
 Ward was treated yesterday for nothing worse than head cuts, all though be was in the cab when the locomotive splintered the freight rig and sent the remains whistling by him.

Seaton in Hospital; Contemplates
 Choice of New Governor for Alaska

WASHINGTON, RASecretary of the Interior Seaton says he hopes to make a recommendation soon for new governor for Alaska.
 The secretary's recommendation is made to the White House. The actual appointment is made by President Eisenhower.
 Seaton did not elaborate on what length of time "soon" might mean.
 Waino Hendrickson, secretary of Alaska, has been acting goyer- nor since the resignation of Gov. B. Frank Heintzleman before the opening of the Legislature at Juneau.
 Seaton, on recent trip to Alaska, looked over the field of candidates for the highest post in the territory, but he has given no clue to any conclusions he may have drawn.
 The appointment, when made, will be subject to confirmation by the Senate.
 Secretary SeatoGl also reiterated at a hospital news conference that q completely support Alaska and Hawaii statehood"
 He said he hopes 'sboth will be granted statehood this year."
 On another subject discussed at the news conference, Seaton said applications under the new fish cry loan program for the nation have reached about four million dollars. Up to yesterday 15O loans had been approved, totaling 11z million. The loans are made to qualified commercial fishermen who cannot obtain credit else where to provide for refinancing, vessel repairs or rehabilitation and gear replacement.
 Seaton is planning trip to Guam and the pacific trust terri tory this summer even though he is now hospitalized for treatment of a back ailment.
 Seaton told newsmen at Walter Reed Hospital that he hopes to complete an inspection trip to Ha- waii, interrupted by his illness, and also to visit other Pacific areas under his departments jur- isdiction.
 Looking well but obviously in pain at times, Seaton said he un- derstood decision probably would be reached Sunday as to whether he must have an opera ton.
 He said the doctors diagnose his trouble as "acute redicu1ar neuritis of the lower extremity" That, he explained, means about the same as what used to be re- ferred to as "sciatica."
