AS the board generally trie!
to prevent too large a spread
between the prime commercial

logical.

In unanimous decision, the United
States Supreme Court ruled that the Ma
tionaI Association for the Advancement Of
Colored People need not reveal the names
of its rank and file members to any state
agency The same decision lifted the $780,
900 fine levied against the NAACP for re-
fusaI to turn its membership lists over to
Alabama officials
The NAACP, the Court held, has
made an uncontroverted showing that on
past occasions revelation Of the identity Of
its rank-and-fiIe members has exposed these
members to economic reprisal, loss Of en-
pIoyment, threat Of physical coercion and
other manifestations Of public hostility
The Court said that under these cir
cunstances, the NAACP would be damaged
if compelled to reveal the names Of its MEM
bers and would not be able to carry on the
program which it has the right to advo-
cate.
The Court said that if the NAACP
were compelled to expose its membership
list, people would withdraw from member
Arkansas State press., 1959-01-16

ship and others would not join because of
fear of exposure.
The Court then ruled that the NAACP
does not have to reveal its membership list
to any state agency.
Therefore, no state, including Arkan-
sas, may legally require the NAACP to turn
over its membership list. Any state laws re-
curing the NAACP to do SO are unconstitu-
tionaI. This point has been settled once and
for all in the Alabama case and the decision
applies to all states.
Anyone can now join and be active in
the Association without fear Of having his
name and activity revealed to hostile state
officials or to private persons.
The Court recognized the vital reIa-
tion between freedom to associate and Pri-
Vacy in ones associations"
Nowis the time to join the Association
and add your strength to that of hundreds
Of thousands Of others who have enlisted in
the Fight for Freedom for all Americans.

New State Legal Aides To Handle Fisheries Litigation

JUNEAU, R - Intervention in court test of the Interior De- partment's ban against Alaska fish trap operations apparently will be one of the first jobs of 8 new legal staff under the Gov ernor's office.
 The staff, to be named by acting Governor Wade, would serve as special legal counsel to handle Alaska fisheries litigation.
 Judge John L. Sirica of the U. s. District Court in Washing ton, D. C., is scheduled to hear ar guments next Wednesday in the fishing industry's move to over throw the fish trap ban. Alaska, if it entered the case, would sup port the Interior Departments ruling.
 The state also might move to set aside provisions of the statehood act under which federal control over Alaska's fish and game re- cources was continued for at least the remainder of 1859.

Dalai Lama Safe I'm India After 2Week Flight
By WATSON SIMS

NEW DELHI, India, R - Ti- betan exiles today hailed the es- cape of the Dalai Lama into In- dia after a perilous flight from the Chinese Reds. They declared he still is their Cooking.
 Prime Minister Nehru con- firmed to a cheering Parliament that the 23-year-old living Bud aha of Tibet had reached a haven in India three nights ago, an escape first announced by the Peiping Radio thursday.
 "Yes, he is in good health, Nehru said. Indicating the Dalai Lama will be given quick asylum, he promised that the refugee will be treated with great respect.
 Nehru said the Dalai Lama crossed the border in northeast India north of the village of Towang, about 500 miles north of Calcutta. Towang has the largest Buddhist monastery in India.
 Well-inforned sources in Kal- impong said the Dalai Lama made his daring trek of about 300 miles from the capitol of Lhasa to the Indian border in two weeks. Sometimes the fugitives saw Chi nese Communist search planes overhead.
 With the protection of fierce Khampa tribeSmen, leaders in Ti- bets rebellion, the Dalai Lama crossed great rivers and high mountain passes to reach the from tier, these sources said.

Senate Kills Plan To Seek New Capitol Site

JUNEAU, N - Any thought ot moving the 18th states capital from this Southeastern Alaska city was soundly squelched in the Leg islature yesterday.
 The Senate, by 19-l vote killed House-approved proposed study to determine a ''best" loca- ton for the state capitol.
 The only vote against killing the resolution was cast by Sen. Irene Ryan of Anchorage.
 Sen. Thomas B. Stewart, of Ju- neau, chairman of the State Af- fairs Committee, said the major complaint against continuing the capitol here was the transporta- ton problem.
 He said Juneau will have all weather flight facilities within 8 few years that will be as good as any in the state.

McCutche0n Turns Down
 Invitation To Argue Alaska Case At Fishery Suit

JUNEAU, R - Stanley Mo Cutcheon, Anchorage attorney and a former Territorial legislator, turned down an invitation yes terday to serve as special legal counsel to the Governors office, to handle Alaska fisheries litiga- ton.
 McCutcheon, author of a 1855 bill to ban fish trap operations in Alaska waters, said he was dis appointed to have to decline the job. He said previous commit ments forced him to refuse the appointment.
 Acting Governor Wade said he had asked McCutcheon and James M. Fitzgerald, also an Anchorage attorney, to serve on a special state legal staff. |.
 Fitzgerald accepted appointment as assistant in the Governors of- flee on legal problems relating 10 fisheries. He had resigned this week as Anchorage city attorney.
 The Governors office said an other Alaska lawyer would be of- fered the job McCutcheon refused but there was no immediate indi- cation of who would be Wade's choice.

anese Embassy at Washington be included in the record. The em- bassy said the bearing of the Japanese high-seas catch upon conservation measures" by the United States in the Boring Sea "has been greatly overstated." There has been a gradual decline in the Bristol Bay run ever since 1895, the embassy stated.
 Hemmendinger also said Japan csc limited their fishing last year to aid the situation and that Jap- anese have "in good faith, tried very hard to accommodate them~ selves to the problem"
 He also said "grave political implications" were involved. The mainstay of Japanese diet is fish and the country is bulwark of the free world in Asia and the continued friendliness of its gov ernment and people is essential, he added.
 Of his proposal for permanent ly-stationed U. s. fisheries station on a ship in the North Pacific, Moore said this country does not have single large trawler ship comparable to those used by Ja- pan, Russia, Germany and Eng land.
 Conclusive Proof of Violations
 George Johansen, secretary treasurer of the Alaska Fisher mems Union, said in his prepared brief that scientific findings have proved conclusively" that Japan csc are violating the spirit and intent" of the 1851 U. S.-Japan- Canada treaty to prohibit taking North American stocks of salmon.
 Failure of Congress and the Administration to act simply will mean the American fishing in- dustry will have lost all hope of maintaining itself as an industry, and that in the future, our house. wives must depend upon Japaraese fishery products" Johansen said.
 Alaska's Governor Egan said in statement that conservation was recognized as one of the main purposes of the 1851 treaty, but it has not worked out that way. in view of this, he added, it appears necessary to adopt some form of restrictive measures such as pro posed in the bills before Congress.

ESC Substitute Bill Calls For Total Wages Tax

JUNEAU, R - A new bill to amend Alaska's employment se- curity law was proposed in the Senate by the Commerce and La bor Committee.
 The measure was offered as a substitute for an earlier bill, sponsored by a majority of the Employment Security Conmis- sion's five-man board. The new proposal called for a jobless in- surance tax on total wages, in- stead of the present ceiling on con- tributions only on the first $4,200 earned each year by a worker.
 The measure does not call for an increase on the present tax paid by employers but does pri- pose an increase of 2 per cent in the taxes paid by workers. The employe tax is now 1z of 1 per cent.
 The bill sponsored by the com mission called for a tax on total wages, but proposed no fixed in- crease in the employer and em- ploye tax rate. It did, however, provide for an experience rating factor in figuring the employer tax, with a minimum levy of two per cent and a top of three per cent.
 The substitute bill eliminated any reference to an experience rating system in the complicated formula that governs jobless in- surance payments.
 The new measure also would leave unchanged the IA formula to determine eligibility to collect unemployment compensation.
 The commissions bill proposed a 11s quarterly earning eligibility, which would in effect extend the period of employment before a worker would be eligible to draw benefits.
 Another change in the new bill would extend the employment se- curity act to municipal employes if they approve coverage at spe- eial election.
 The bill also provides that an unemployed worker would not have to accept employment if the job in question would endanger his membership in any bona fide fraternal, religious or labor or ganization. As an example, a union member would not be de- clared ineligible for benefits if he refused to accept a job in a non-union shop.
 Both the substitute bill and the original commission measure were sent to the Judiciary Committee. After the committee reports on the two bills, the Senate will vote to accept either the original or the substitute and will then begin floor action on the chosen measure.
