y commended that the Big 10th (An- chorage) Election District be given IA seats in the State House of Representatives The boards recommendation to Gov. Egan on reapportionment of the lower chamber of the State Legislature was made public by Egan Tuesday.
 The board recommended that the number of election districts be trimmed by five, from 24 to l9. Nome Loses One Seat It also recommended that three districts which had two seats in the House in previous sessions be cut to one seat. They were the 4th tSitka), the lllth (Kodial) and the 18th Nome).
 The 2nd Ketchikan) District and the 5th tJuneau) District were held at two seats each.
 In another recommendation, the board suggested that the 18th Fairbanks) District and the 2Oth Upper Yukon) District be com bined into new district called the Fai1'banks-Ft. Yukon District, to have seven seats.
 The 19 now has five and the Upper Yukon one.
 Under the apportionment sched- ule provided in the State Con- situation, the 10th District nad eight seats in the House of Repre- sentatives.
 The districts which would lose their present separate identities in the recommendations offered by the Advisory Board are:
 The ist {Prince of Wales) Dis trict, which would be combined with the 2nd (Ketchikan) District.
 The 7th (Cordova- Carthy) and 9th (Valdez-C Chitina -Whittier} Districts, which would be com bined into a new district called the Cordova-Valdez District.
 The I7th Kuskolxwir1) and the 18th tYukon-Koyukuk) Districts, which would be combined into new district called the Yukon Kuskokwirn District.

 The board also proposed that the Goose Bay area be transfer red from the Anchorage District to the Palmer Wasilla- T9llseetna District.
 Other Recommendation
 
 In other recommendations, the board urged that:
 The 1970 federal census give more regard to the provisions of the State Constitution regarding contiguous and compact socio- economic areas, especially within the more heavily populated cleo tion districts"
 A study be made of possible constitutional arnensiinenf which would permit division of heavily populated election districts to avoid long and unwieldy ballots.

as soon as possible. The neu-
tralist former Premier said it
would bring all factions to-
| gether to set up a commission
to stop the fighting. Thus the
war would continue until the
conference reached agreement.
But Ngon Sananikone, a cab
met minister representing Wen
tiane, said his government feels
a commission of neutral ma
tionS should be chosen quickly
to stop the fighting. This would
be followed by detailed discus
Sions in an international con-
ference.
Both sides said contacts will
continue during Prince Sou
vanna'S trip to Asian, European
and Communist countries, but
all those concerned reflected
pessimism.
Prince Souvanna told a gov
ernment delegation from Vien-
tiane that he would be in con-
tact with the Pathet Lao rebels
during his trip and would re-
turn to Phnom PENN if chances
for a settlement improved.
Peace hopes raised by the
neutralist ex-premier's agree
ment last week with the Vien-
tiane government took a sharp
turn downward. 1t was obvi-
Gus that any negotiated end to
the Laotian civil war was a long

India's Use of Force Leaves Impact on World Relations
BY ,. Y. Roberfs
Associdted Press Nesvs AnoIvst

 Associated Press Nesvs AnnIvst
 India's resort to force to en- force territorial demands against Portugal now promises to be a nine days wonder insofar as Goa is concerned, but with a hang over of long-range impact on world relations.
 It has long been 8 foregone con- clusion that Goa would go the way of all possessions of the Eu- ropean colonial powers. The man. ner of the going is surprising, but only to those who have believed or hoped that Prime Minister Nehru was sincere in his advo- cacy of world settlements through peaceful negotiations.
 The immediate fighting is about over, both at the front and in the United Nations. The United States and Portugal have been beaten in the Security Council, and there is no point in carrying the case to the overwhelmingly anti colonialists of the General As sembly membership. Recrimina- tions will continue to fly without practical effect on the case in point.
 Some very practical effects can be expected, however, on world attitudes.
 If there was any real allegiance among the so-caiied neutralists to the cause of peaceful solutions and real neutrality, you might have expected India to lose part of her voice in their affairs.
 Instead, her voice has been strengthened in a majority section of JUN. opinion which reveals it. self as more opposed to the rem nants of Western colonialism - though not to the new type of Communist colonialism than to use of force.
 This seriously complicates the United States effort to stand as a moderating force between Eu- rope and the African-Asian group. It serves notice on President Sukarno of Indonesia that his mo- Utilization against West New Guinea and the use of force there if he desires = will have the support of India and the whole so-called neutralist bloc which holds the balance of power in the General Assembly, as well as of the Soviet bloc.
 in nasty sort of way, India's action precip;tates a new situa- ton with regard to Western att titudes.
 The United States and the West have often been handicapped by the feeling that they were re- quired to listen politely to the psalm-singing of Nehru and the neutralist cohorts.
 Now those very cohorts have buried the question of moral principle in favor of opports,nist use of force. The West may feel it can pursue it's course with
 greater freedom of seH-interest
 which once again is proved t<
 be the rule by which most na'
 lions live.

would have us betray the cause
OF international freedom and
Justice by yielding to the Red

moral issues.
1--WE also have in our midst
some timid souls who have so
little faith in the strength of
democracy that they would
have our country yield to in
ternational threats and intimi-
dation."
Emblem Is an Eagle
Mentioning those who chant
better Red than dead" as a
slogan. Mr.. Hoover declared
that Americas emblem is
soaring eagle, not the blind and
timid mole.
Fear. apologies, defeatism
and cowardice are alien to the
thinking of true Americans. AS
for me, l would rather be dead
than Red"
He said America does not
have to apologize to anyone,
certainly not to the arrogant,
shoe-pounding Khrushchev and
his puppets, nor to those neu-
trails whose neutrality is but an
evidence of moral weakness.
I'VE should keep our heads up
looking for honorable solutions
and selling America, rather than
keep our heads down looking
for shelters and the compromise
OF human rights"
He belabored rightists and
left-Wingers alike and Joined
the movement to lower the age
limit between Juvenile and
adult crime.
Let us be for America all
the way" Mr.. Hoover said, but.
at the same time, let us not be
taken in by those who promote
hysterla by the distortion and
Misrepresentation of the true
facts whether they be propo-
nents of chauvinism of the ex-
treme right or pseudo liberalism
of the extreme left"
The director said that crime
has nearly doubled in the Unit
ed States in the last decade"
outpacing the growth of our
population at the rate of four
to one"
"A murder is committed
every So minutes" he said.
There is a vicious assault
every four minutes. a forcible
rape every 81 minutes, a rob-
berry every six minutes and
burglary every 80 seconds. .
Nearly half of the persons
arrested for burglaries and
larcenies and almost two-thirds
OF those arrested for auto
mobile thefts are less than lS
years of age
Thugs Not Delinquents
Il can see no difference be-
tween the responsibility of
II or l8 year old VIII willfully
robs, assaults or murders and
that of an adult who commits
the same crime These are
not juvenile delinquents. They
are vicious young thugs. They
should be treated accordingly.
II share with Blackstone the
premise that the main strength
