Alaska Oil and Gas Leases Suspended Temporarily

WASHINGTON, LR - The h. terior Department said today is- suance of oil and gas leases on Alaskan lands has been suspen- ded. A spokesman said it is an- ticipated the suspension would be in effect for only a few days.
 The action followed a sug- gestion to Secretary Seaton by Sen. Clinton P. Anderson O-NM that the rental charge for such leases be doubled.
 That would make the rental total $4 an acre for 10 yearS-the same as in the states.
 The Alaskan rental charge now is 25 cents an acre for the first year, the second and third year rentals are waived, and then the rental is 25 cents a year for the fourth and fifth years and for each year in the permitted five year renewal. That aggregates $2 for 10 years.
 Alaska is now having an oil boom. The department had been pushing to be in shape about May I to start issuing leases on about four million acres of land-known as Plot 82 Lands-Which had previously been withdrawn from such leasing.
 The Plot 82 Lands, ultimately designed to be made available for future oil and gas leasing, total about 20 million acres.
 The suspension also applies to leases on the Kenai Peninsula.

Continued Failure to Grant Statehood To Alaska and Hawaii to be Regarded As Deliberate Flouting of Popular Will

WASHINGTON R LII Support for Alaskan statehood is so wide spread in the United States, Sen Frank Church D-Idaho) said to- day, that our continued failure to- grant it can only be regarded as deliberate flouting of the popular will.'
 One of the Senate's most ardent supporters of statehood for both Alaska and Hawaii, the Idaho Senator in a prepared speech strongly urged action on the Alaska bill at this session of Congress.
 For those who really know Alaska" he said, ''it seems pre- posterous to question her capac- ity to support statehood. Only those who still retain a mental image of Alaska as a land of trackless tundra, swamps and ice, inhabitated by Eskimos in igloos, regard this question as one to be treated seriusly."
 Church said Alaska has met every test founded in precedent and tradition for statehood while the newly improvised objection of non-contiguity is spacious if not fatuous.'
 The real reason for the pro- longed paralysis in Congress on the statehood issue, Church said, can be attributed to such argu- ments as the effect of new sena- tors on the party alignment and the dilution of the voting strength of more populous states.
 Each reflects the reluctance of Congress to share it's preroga- tives, or to extend the legisla- tive franchise. Each suggests a different standardization for pre- serving the status quo," he said- Such arguments, Church said, have been with us from the time of our national origin"
 Had we needed them in the past, the United States would still be comprised of the thin tier of 13 states that stretch along the Atlantic coastline of our mighty continent"
 He said persons who contend that the United States westward march is over are now telling us that ours is a finished country, and that the union is complete, but it is not so.
 "Our country is not complete as long as hundreds of thousands of American citizens, in our two incorporated territories of Alaska and Hawaii, are barred entry and wait upon the doorstep of our union for the rights which are their legacy"

The Senate Finance Commit

The addition of $4,000 for
the branch school, which in
ladvertantly had been left out
lof the House measure, is one
of the changes recommended by
the Senate committee. The

ton that would have permitted

which provided for not guilty
verdict if the defendant did
not know right from wrong at
the time of the crime and COM
mitted the crime as a result of
an irresistible impulse.
In Two Jurisdictions
The staff report noted that
the new test applies only in the
District and in New Hampshire,
which adopted the essence of
the Durham rule in 1870.
The report suggested that
any inquiry that might be
undertaken by the committee
should go beyond the mere con-
sideration of a single insanity
test for all Federal courts in
the country. 1t proposed in
veStigation should determine
where a person found not guilty
because Of insanity should be
conf1ned-jail or mental insti-
tuition. 1t also suggested ex-
ploration of a thorny problem
that has faced prosecutors
since the Durham Rule was
handed down: The necessity of
proving that a man who pleads
insanity is really insane.
Another problem to be ex-
plored, according to the staff
report, is the availability of
facilities for treatment of the
criminally insane.
The report said, part Of the
criticism of the Durham rule
in the District is based on the
contention that, because appli-
cation of that rule is resulting
in more commitments, St.
Elizabeths is becoming so
crowded that it is being forced
to release law abiding patients
who are deserving of care"

Virginia Guard
Cuts Protested
BY the Associated Press

A strong protest against any
cut in the Virginia National
Guard was presened yesterday
by a Virginia delegation to the
States members of Congress.
Senator Byrd, Democrat of
Virginia, promised that if it
comes to a question of money
he intends to vote a cut in
foreign aid instead of the Ma
tional Guard.

situation briefly at a conference
with the entire Virginia con-
gressional delegation and pre-
sened spokesman for the group.
Maj. Gen. i. w. Opie Ct

tions the entire goth National
Guard DiviSlon--from nginia,

may be eliminated.
II. have no confidence" he
added, in statements by the
military that there are no plans
to eliminate the goth Division.
Gen. Opie said he sees a dis
tinct threat to the National
Guard because the military
wants strong Federalized re-
serve.
Gen. Opie urged the Virginia
Senators and Representatives
to see that money is appropri-
ated specifically for National
Guard purposes, with safe
guards against any diversion.
Col. Arch A. Sproul of Staun-
ton, commanding officer of the
Virginia units of the Goth, said
there is a real possibility the
10Th Division will be deactivat-
ed after 1859.
State Delegate George Coch-
ran, Staunton. read a resolution
by the Virginia General As
sembly urging the Virginia
members of Congress TO take
all possible steps to prevent
the deactivation or reduction
in strength of these famous
fighting units" of Virginia.

to pin down what these issues
are includes a QUESTIONABLE
to be sent to judges, lawyers,
psychiatrists, penologists and
criminologists.
This QUESTIONABLE, the prep
aration of which is already
approved, would attempt to an
swer these questions:
/. What matters other than
a test of criminal responsibility
in court trials should be formu-
lated in Federal law?
2. Should the law involving
insanity emphasize medical
custodial" disposition or punt
Unconventional" disposition as
the best means of achieving
rehabilitation and stopping
criminal repeaters?
Question Of Uniformity
8. Is uniformity necessary in
all Federal jurisdictions in mat
tiers of law concerned with in
sanity?
4. What steps need to be
taken to bridge the great
chasm between the science of
law and the science Of PSYCHE
atry?"
The staff report reviewed the
controversy over insanity law
here that started in 1854 when
the United States Court of
Appeals for the District handed
down its now famous Durham
Rule.
The rule outlined a new test
for insanity in court trials. 1t
said that, when a defendant
enters an insanity plea at his
trial, the jury must find him
not guilty by reason of insan-
ity, if it feels his unlawful act
was a product of mental dis
ease or defect.
This replaced the old rules,
