Bill Introduced To Extend Term Of
 Rail, Hwy. Comm.

WASHINGTON, R - A bill to extend operation of the Alaska International Rail and Highway Commission to June 30, 1861, was introduced Friday by Senator Warren Magnuson D-Wash. He predicted Congress would provide S2nQ,000 for it's work.
 Under the present law authori- zation for the commission would expire February l, 1860.
 Magnuson, acting chairman of the commission, said lack of funds and membership changes had de- layed its work. He said a pro- gram should be undertaken to de- termine the best rail-highway routes between Alaska and the Pacific Northwest through the Rocky Mountain trench.

Rent Hike Brings Protests From Guardians Of Tower of London

LONDON, R - The Beefeaters will continue to appear in reli- Sious parades and perform other extra chores besides guarding and decorating the Tower of London.
 The Beefeaters yoeman warders of the tower, whose Tudor costumes of red and blue are well l-noWn to tourists - had threat ened to stop doing traditional ex- tra duties because the government wanted to raise rents on their quarters in the Tower.
 The Civil Service Union an ~ounced Friday "a very satisfac- tory settlement" Rents will go up as scheduled from the equiva- lent of 70 cents a week to $280, out at the same time, supplement tai allowance will be raised from SLIP to $490.
 So the Beefeaters will come out $168 ahead.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

We, the Village Councilmen and Chief, representing the people of Mountain Village, Alaska, request v0ur help in obtaining year round DC-4-type airfield in the area known as the Lower Yukon, from Marshall to the mouth of the Yukon River.
 Several surveys have been made in the past for site, but various conditions, some financial and some political, have blocked the construction Of this type field in the area. The people here are not especially concerned as to the ex- act location, though there is an ex- cellent site, we have been told, approximately halfway between St. Marys and Mt. Village. This sit would provide float facilities as well as a site for DC-4 field. However, the location of site is immaterial The people of this area want an airfield centrally To- cated to serve them.
 We believe we need a DC-4 type field for the following reasons:

Lower Yukon Village Leaders Ask
 Help To Obtain DC4 Landing Field

l. Mail service into this area is poor. Despite the fact that Alaska Airlines has good equipment and pilots, the distances, amount of stops and the valume of mail, freight and passengers put a ter rife load upon the airlines. Often weather at either Bethel or Una lakleet prevents flights.
 2. The native people of this area are hampered in the securing of summer emploment due to the high cost of transportation on bush flights.
 3. High freight rates hurt the economy of the area. Storekeepers are not able to bring in potatoes, fresh milk and vegetables and many other items under the pres ent air-freight rate.
 4. A DC-4 field would render a military service, and aid mater tally with the activities of the Alaska National Guard.
 5. The population of this area is rising. Each year will find the problem of adequate air transpor- tation accentuated
 6. The nearest DC-3 field on the Yukon River is at Galena. The reed for adequate transportation for the people of the Lower Yukon has been largely forgotten in the past.
 We ask you to carefully con- sider our request and lend your support to help in this project.

State Department Continuing Cold War, Says Mikoyan

WASHINGTON, R - Soviet Deputy Premier Anastas Mi koyan today accused the U. s. State Department of continuing the cold war by refusing to ease restrictions on Soviet-American trade
 Mikoyan delivered his blast af- ter 3M-hour meeting with Dep uty Undersecretary of State Doug las Dillon, whas is in charge of foreign economic policy.
 His face grim, Mikoyan told newsmen afterward:
 Apparently the State Depart ment is not prepared to repeal those discriminatory restrictions which are in the way of expand ing shipment of Soviet foods to the United States in order that we could place big orders.'
 Ambassador Mikhail Menshikov, who accompanied Mikoyan and acted as translator, added
 He's of the impression the cold war in the State Department is going on and that it affects foreign trade.
 "We hope the cold war will be over and that trade will expand"
 TOKYO, R - Japan's military forces will double their expendi- lures on guided missiles, rockets and submarines in the year be- ginning April 1.
 The Japanese Defense Agency said last week $1,111,111 will be set aside for these things out of a military budget of $377 100000 proposed to Parliament but not yet approved.

Division Proposal Stirs Local Protest

State Sen. Lester Bronson last week protested to Gov& Egan the proposed three-divisional admin iStration for the new state. Fol lowing is the text of his letter: Dear Sir:
 After deliberating with my fel- low citiens. I have found grave concern over the suggested three part administrative division of the State of Alaska. The people of Northwestern Alaska voted as strongly as any other section for statehood as it was intended at the Constitutional Convention. Now, seemingly, we find ourselves con- fronted with the possibility that our judicial divisional status, which we enjoyed under the terri torial system, will be taken from us by our own district administra- ton.
 Is this our reward for our part in the battle for statehood?
 As has been noted by other pro- tests, this three Division proposal will cost as much or more to ad- minister. In addition, it would be a direct imposition on the people living in this area. It seems that the Public Administration Serv- ice method of planning conforms to states of smaller domain that have completed their formative stages.
 The people of Northwestern Alaska protest vigorously to this division proposal, and remind you that they have already been sub jected to the following conditions:
 l. Considered outside the peri meter of defense and have had our local bases taken from us.
 2. President Eisenhower's divi- sional suggestion in 1855 that all territory west of the Yukon be considered outside the State of Alaska.
 We feel that Northwestern Alaska should be given the same consideration and stature under statehood as we had under terri torial status. We ask and pray for either one central, or four admin istrative divisions, as before.
 It has been written that some of US are trying to tear down the work of the Public Administration Service. This is true, if parts of their proposed program do not fit the original plans for our new state, which were resolved at the Constitutional Convention. We would not be true citizens if we were to submit to deviations from the state constitution as it was originally written. After all, the PAS plan is but a proposal, and should be considered as such.
 All of us pray for your speedy recovery from your recent illness.

No New Proposals Made at Ike
 Mikoyan Meeting

WASHINGTON, R - President Eisenhower and Soviet Deputy Premier Anastas I. Mikoyan con- ferred for an hour and 45 minutes Saturday. The Russian leader dis cussed at least five outstanding East-West issues with the Presi- dent but failed to offer any new proposals or concessions.
 White House Press Secretary James c. Hagerty said Eisenhower and Secretary of State Dulles agreed with Mikoyan that the talks had been useful.
 Among the subjects discussed, Hagerty said, were the Berlin sit uation, the questions of Germany, disarmament, increased trade, and freer exchanges of persons be- tween Russia and the United States.
 q can also say," Hagerty added, there were no new proposals dur ing this discussion"
 Hagerty made clear his com ment referred specifically to spec ulation in advance of Mikoyan's arrival here that he would prob ably bring some new proposals or offers of concession on the Der lin situation.
 The press secretary said there was no mention of any visit by Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev to the United States nor a visit of Vice President Nixon to the Soviet Union. There had been speculation about such visits.
 Mihoyan appeared in good hu- nor after his White House ses- sion.
 An embassy spokesman said the deputy premier had no further ap- pointments scheduled here except for televiSion conference late Sunday and an appearance at the National Press Club Monday noon. He is scheduled to make a trip to Florida in midWeek.
 q can say we held an exchange of views on many matters of vital interest. We did not conduct ne gotiations but tried to find the po- sitions of our countries on many matters" Mikoyan said, through an interpreter.
 "This was not a negotiation but a useful exchange of views. At the end, the President, the Secretary of State and we all came to the conclusion that the exchange was useful" he told White House re- porters.
 q conveyed to the President greetings on behalf of Prime Min ister Nikita Khrushcnev, best wishes for his good health and success on the road to better re- lations between our two coun- tries. The President thanked me and conveyed his warm greetings to our prime minister"
 After the brief statement, Mi koyan broke off the session with reporters, saying in English: Thank you and good bye"
