By LEONARD LYONS

NEW YORK.-Perle MeSta,
who endorsed the NixOn-LOdge
ticket, is back in the Demo-
cratic fold. She ardently sup
ported Lyndon JOhnSon'S cam
paign for the Presidential nom
ination. When johnson agreed
to take the No. 2 spot, Perle
was so angry that she an
nounced her support of the Re-
publican ticket. Her anger,
however, was short-lived.
She met Speaker Sam Ray
burn at party in Washington.
The Texan told her: 81 ought
to be mad at you-but I'm not"
and he kissed her. Then Perle
sold her Washington house to
the Lyndon Johnsons, with
whom she has remained good
friends. And, finally, when she
listened to President Kennedy's
last broadcast and wrote him
a letter expressing support of
his position, JFK responded
warmly. All's well on the Po-
tomac again.

McNees Introduces Bill to Provide Road From LivengOod 10 Nome

JUNEAU tR - A joint resolu- ton providing for construction of a road from Livengood to Nome was introduced in the State Sen ate Tuesday by Sen. John Me Nees.
 The Resolution, SJR5, seeks to implement voter approval of the $23 million Ferry Bond Issue submitted to them last Nov. 8.
 Under McNees' proposal, $15 million would be used for ferries and ferry approaches in Southeast Alaska, linking all towns of 2,O00 persons or more.
 Ferry service to Kodiak would be provided by S3 million of the bond money.
 The remaining $5 million would be used for the Nome Road.
 McNees said the present Fair banks-Livengood Road, under his plan, would be extended to crossing of the Panama River at Manley HOt springs.
 The proposed road would then follow the south shores of the Panama and Yukon Rivers to Ruby, where ferry crossing would be established, carrying traffic to the north shore of the Yukon.
 From Ruby Crossing, the road would carry almost due west to Shelton, north of Nome The Ko- yukuk River would be bridged just north of it's confluence with the Yukon.
 McNees said the proposed road would open up Koyukuk oil ex- ploration areas and pave the way for access to the McGrath Dis trict.

By Ward T. Sims Associated Press Staff Writer

JUNEAU lR - Gov. William A Egan told the 1861 Legislature ht intends to ask for approval o1 legislation broadening the State. Employment Security Program.
 In his State of the State Mes sage, Egan said he will ask that the maximum weekly amount payable under the jobless bene- fit program be increased from $45 to $50.
 He also said he will ask that the maximum duration of bene- fits an unemployed worker can receive be increased from 26 to 28 weeks and that employment security coVerage be extended to state employees.
 In 28-page message which dealt with a score or more sub- jects, the states chief executive also said he planned to ask for legislation which would:
 l. Make revisions in the cleo tion code approved by the last Legislature.
 2. Increase teachers salaries. "A reasonable salary base is a prime need if we are to attract and retain qualified instructors for our schools"
 3. Establish a Borough System in Alaska.
 4. Provide for the issuance of revenue bonds to finance im- provements at Fairbanks and An chorage International Airports.
 5. Boost the salaries of state employees.
 Egan said the Borough Bill will "seek the most in local govern ment for urban, suburban and rural areas"
 "It requires local initiative for incorporation of organized bor- oughs; it requires the adoption of standards for incorporation; it provides that the people shall have the final voice in deciding whether an organized borough will be formed.
 Under this bill borough as- Semblies are given many options to permit each areas operating in the manner which best suits it's own conditions
 ''The bill establishes a single unorganized borough consisting of all areas of the state that are not included within organized boroughs .'
 The governor urged the Legis- lature to endorse the $23 million State Ferry System bond issue approved by the voters last Nov because ''it would be wholly contradictory for this Legislature to act in the furtherance of tour ism without affirmative action on the Marine Highway System"
 Egan urged the Legislature too, to provide for full Alaska participation in the Century q Exposition to be held in Seattle next year. He said the staff and buildings would cost approxi- mately $400,000.
 He said, however, that he will not include money for Century 21 in his Budget Message, to be submitted tomorrow, "the de- cision must be yOurS."
 G. I would be less than real istic and less than frank if were to suggest that the projected highway program might be pur- sued on a continuing basis with. out additional taxes, or that teachers salaries might be raised tourism better promoted or Cen tury 21 undertaken without pro

Fly American
Order Defined
By the Associated Press

Air Force headquarters here
says it has not banned the use
of foreign airlines by United
States military personnel or de-
pendents in Europe who are on
non-official trips to the United
States.
The Air Force said yesterday
it is studying a letter on the
subject sent last week by the
United States Air Forces in
Europe to the European head
quarters. Of American Express
Co. at Frankfort, Germany.
Col. David Long, chief of Air
Force transportation at Wies-
baden, Germany, instructed
American Express, which ham
dies Air Force travel business.
that American military person.
mel flying home for Christmas
must use United States airlines
exclusively.
The two United States sched-
uled trans Atlantic airlines-
Trans World and Pan Ameri-
can-and several foreign air.
lines had filed special low ex-
cursion rates for United States
personnel and dependents trav-
cling to the United States dur
ing the holidays in groups of
As or more.
Col. Long told American
Express that military personnel
on furlough or business travel
must use United States trans
portation.
American Express notified
airline offices in Europe that
it must comply, and would re-
book on United States airlines
those Americans who had al
ready bought passage on for
eign airlines.
After protests from the for
eign airlines, however, Ameri-
can Express decided on Novem-
Der II to continue those for
eign airlines booking already
in effect.
On Thursday, however, Col.
Long notified American Ex-
press again of the United States
policy to grant preference to
United States air or surface
carriers and to use foreign
transport only If United States
accommodations were not
available.
American Express thereupon
ordered all its station managers
to comply with the ruling.
At the Pentagon it was ex-
planned that the policy to en-
courage the use of American
companies was in line with the
program to diminish the out
ward flow of United States dol
lars.
However, there is no outright
ban on the use of foreign trans
portation, officials said.
