that the Department of Interior itself brought up last fall when it asked Alaskans to make comments on a policy change that would al low unmilled timber to leave the state
 Udal indicated he thought Alas ka would be better off economic ally if it would export the raw timber Establishment of mills to process the timber would be the most ideal answer, he indicated, but perhaps this might take a little longer than straight export.
 Udall said, the petroleum and mineral programs of Alaska, pri marily on the Kenai Peninsula, have been a God-send to Alaska The federal government gives the state 90 per cent of the oil reve- nues from federal land here This is a wise step and is helping the state

 Hayes statement came in a legal opinion written for Mrs. Dorothy Haaiand. Asst. District Attorney at Anchorage.

FAIRBANKS tP - The Ram part Dam Advisory Board was told here Thursday morning by Sec retary of the Interior Stewart Udall that the Soviet Union is in a power dam building mood, and is now building project as big as Alaska's proposed five million kilowatt Rampant project.
 In addition, Udall told the local group that Russia is doing preli minary work on a 20 million kilo watt project near the mouth of the Lena River, at latitude sev- eral hundred miles north of Point Barrow.
 We are in a power race with the Soviets,' the cabinet member said during his first tour of the 18th State. He reported that Soviet Siberia. roughly akin to Alaska in latitude and physical makeup, has several rivers equal or greater than the Yukon system.
 ssThe dam building problems there are similar to those here. Cold weather, long transmission distances and the wilderness be- ginning of the projects are the challenges both areas face in de- velopment, 'Udall said.
 The Interior Secretary recently made an extensive tour of Siberia and received first-hand knowledge of the Soviet power development projects.
 No Subsidy Program for Gold
 Wednesday, Udall said at press conference that. he doc. .not.see any future subsidy program for gold miners.
 He added that only future mar ket demands would determine the future of the Alaskan and pri- mafny the Seward Peninsula tin deposits.
 A happier note was struck how ever when he was asked about pos sible export of raw logs from in terior Alaska to Japan, a subject

Newspaper Editors Urged To Make Greater Effort Backgrounding News
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. tP'

MINNEAPOLIS, Mlnn. tR
 American newspapers, long the dominant force in day-to-day en- lightenment of the reading public, were issued a stern challenge We'd nesday by one of their leading spokesman to scale even greater heights of meaningful reporting
 The call came from Ed Stone of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer and retiring president of the As sociated Press Managing Editors Assn, which opened it's annual five-day convention here.
 Il feel strongly Stone said, that the great challenge to our existence as vital and essential part of American life lies still be- fore us; that only by daring and imagination and a constant ques- tioning of time-honored concepts and practices, can we ever hope to approach the shining goal of maximum service to our readers, our community and our nation. -
 Stone spoke to some 300 dele gates at the APMEA= session.. He also used his presidents report to voice an answer to critics of today's newspapers.
 sIll-lnformed and even malicious criticisms of Americas newspapers by an influential minority persist in setting up a straw man of sen- sationallsm and irresponsibilty with little or no relationship to 1862 reality he said.
 Our jaundiced detractors of this persuasion are fond of. citing or 10 best newspapers as living LID to their criteria and dismissing the rest of Americas vast press as of no account, thus dumping into their critical ashean the hun- dreds of good newspapers across the land which are serving their respective communities conscientl- ouslY and well, he added.
 The Seattle executive urged his fellow editors to greater effort in baekgrounding news to make it more vital to the reader.

Native Rights

Regarding h u m a n resources, Udall said he is now awaiting the report of a special task force he appointed to study native rights programs. "The report might re- suit in some type of requested leg islation, or policy decision, re- garding aboriginal rights the secretary declared
 T don't know if the natives want reservations, but I do know aboriginal rights must be de- cided.
 Commenting on the 8 million acre northeast Alaska Wildlife range which was dedicated i'll the last days of the Eisenhower ad- ministration. and for which no money has yet been programmed, Udail said: There should be a program for the range, and we will request. Congress again for some money to operate it.
 Agreed with Gov. Egan
 Regarding the controversial ar rest of three Japanese fishing boat captains near Kodiak Island last spring, Udall said, T agreed with the position Gov. Egan took.
 The job of the State Depart ment is the concern of friendly foreign nations. I think we must maintain friendly relations, but there are times when a strong stand must be taken. Gov. Egan took such stand.'
 Udall wound up the conference by thanking representatives of the Alaska Native Rights Assn. for their invitation to attend an Es- kimo meeting in Kotzebue next month. "I will not be able to at tend, but l will be represented, he said.

coast, stated that recent storms
have left tremendous losses in the
|seacoast territory.
He listed nine hurricans in the
past seven years as an example.
He stated that from the 10 years
from 1861 to 1860, seacoast terri
tory losses amounted to $21, 2S1 BIT
while the premiums paid totaled
only $6,S20, O33. This left deficit
of $14,411,7 s4, according to Bizzell.
