The decision not to sign the bill drew heavy criticism from a Dem ocratic member of the House of Representatives.
 Rep. Seaborn J. Buckalew IT,, Anchorage, said in House speech yesterday that Acting Governor Waino Hendrickson was follow ing the usual course of persons who do not represent the people of Alaska

Mcintosh Request Gives Scholarships For Alaska Schools

Income from the substantial bequest recently left to the Uni versity of Alaska by the late Mrs. Jessie O'Bryan Mcintosh, Alaska pioneer businesswoman, will go into $6,O00 scholarship fund for valedictorians and salu- tatorians of all Alaska high schools starting with the fall, 1957-58 semester.
 Dr. Ernest N. Patty, university president, disclosed this. He said that the individual scholarships will amount to $4OO annually, or $200 each semester. The funds will be deposited with the univer- sity comptroller.
 Mrs. Laura E. Jones, registrar and scholarship committee chair man, said that the Mcintosh schol- arShips should encourage many Alaska students to attend the uni versity, especially since the Ter ritorial Legislature already has established free dormitory room scholarships, for the valedictorians of each high school.
 Should a valedictorian of high school elect not to attend the uni versity, the room scholarship auto matically goes to the salutatorlan.
 Mrs. Jones said that her office will contact eligible Territorial students about the Mcintosh scholarships.

Atom Plane Project Slowed For Research

WASHINGTON, R-An official disclosure that the atom-powered plane project has been slowed down comes from the Pentagon, along with a hint that some guided missiles may be pared out of that weapon development pro- gnam.
 Dr. Clifford c. Furnas, the as- sistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Development, told neWsmen yesterday that the rea- sons are technical, not the result of budgetary economy.
 He was asked specifically about the project to perfect an airplane driven by the power of nuclear reactor. Sen. Symington D-MoD told television audience Sunday defense officials have almost abandoned work on the project 'fbecause they don't want to spend the money"
 Further remarks suggested the designers are again confronted with the basic trouble: the atomic reactor must be lighter in weight than those now being tried, and the necessity for a quantity of radlation-proof shielding per sists.
 This means, apparently, that while the Atomic Energy Com mission (AEC has operated a jet engine using the heat from an atomic reactor for power, that land-based design isn't of the weight required for airborne use.
