JOSEPH KRAFT

In opening his assault on
the foreign aid bill in the
Senate, Wayne Morse pre-
dicted that the debate would
be historic. It has been-but
in a sense far different from
that dreamed by the Senator
from Oregon. For the debate
has witnessed the dissolution
Of cohesive force in the SEN
ate, and the triumph of the
mavericks.
Look first at the corrosion
of the influence additionally
accorded to the responsible
committee and its chairman.
As chairman Of the Foreign
Relations Committee, Sena-
tor Fulbright brought onto
the floor a bill calling for an
aid authorization Of $4.2 bill
lion. He had barely presented
his report when he agreed
under pressure from the
leadership of both parties to
the so-called Mansfield
Dirksen "powerhouse"
amendment, cutting the fig
ure to $3.s billion. When re-
treat from that figure proved
necessary a new compromise,
at $3.7 billion, was worked
out by Senators Humphrey
and Morse.
This time the committee
chairman was not even in on
the compromise. Senator An
derson, himself a committee
chairman, noted the omission.
Three times he called for an
expression Of views by Senator
Fulbrlght. And finally the
committee chairman spoke his
poignant piece: at is the best
we could do. I do not approve
Of it,"
Consider now what hap
pened to the Dem ocratic
leadership. Having preached

Khrushchevfs Autobuhn Threat

M anW mile, the U nlteo
States, France and Great
Britain have explicitly
c harged in q formal note
that the Soviet commander
deviated from the a agreed
upon regulations for control
of the Autobahn.
The whole episode comes
as a big surprise to many
people who had been led to
believe that the signing Of
the nuclear test-ban treaty
and the prospective sale Of
wheat to the Russians had
established a kind Of "eupho-
ria," or at least a spirit Of
mutual understanding or re-
straint. Today the remarks
of Premier Khrushchev stand
before the world as q dlSclo-
sure Of the strategy and tao
tics Of the dictator In the
Kremlin. His latest words
will be widely construed as
an effort to bluff the United
States into g getting out Of
Berlin. He may have come to
believe that nuclear war is
feared so much in America
that almost any step which
could possibly become an in
volvem e mt In war will be
avoided and that concessions
will be made to the Commu-
nists.
Recently q hot line" was
installed between the White
House and the Kremlin to
permit instantaneous COM
munication in q crisis. But II
the Soviet troops have been
given orders to fire without
getting In touch with the
Kremlin itself, 1t Is conceiva-
BILE that bloodshed will occur
long before any hot line"
could be put to use.
1t would appear that moth
ing is more important now
for the United States Gov
eminent than to have q
clear-cut understanding with
the Soviet Union as to what
1t intends to do In the area
around Berlin and to ascer-
tain VIII ether Mr.. Khru-
shchev has actually instruct
ed his military forces to fire
upon Am erican forces
whenever the latter do not
act in accordance with pro-
cedures established" unilat-
orally by the Soviets. 1t
would seem desirable, too, to
set up a machinery for i'm
mediately resolving any con-
flicts in understanding about
established" procedures.

A most sensational revela-
ton has Just been made by
Premier KhrushcheV. He tells
the world that at any mo-
ment q war could break out
between the United States
and the Soviet Union, in
asmuch as the Russian mill
tary comm anders on the
Berlin highway can decide
for themselves to open fire
on Allied troops and vehicles.
This state of affairs would
norm ally be protected
against q dangerous climax
by diplomatic Intervention.
but Mr.. Khrushchev appar-
entity has given discretion to
subordinate officers to shoot
If they construe existing reg
ulations about access to
Berlin to be challenged. He
indicates that, irrespective Of
the facts, he will blame the
United States forces for hav-
ing provoked the fighting.
The Soviet Premier per-
mitted an unedited version Of
his remarks to a group Of
American businessmen to be
released without any modifi-
cation Of his extreme state
ments. This is unusual. One
Of the visitors asked:
Are you saying that If we
cannot agree over procedure
on the Autobahn, that you
would give an order that
would result In shooting and
possible WARP"
To this, Mr.. Khrushchev
replied as follows:
mo. we gave no such or
der. but there is an estab-
lished procedure. 1t is q
matter Of a soldier being a
soldier. He h as operational
instructions and II someone
wants to break through, then
1t is in the natural course Of
things that force will be met
by force.
1T is something that is
based on standing orders. A
soldier is not a foreign min
lister. He cannot enter into
negotiations and he has to
carry out his orders. That is
the law both for our soldiers
and for yours.
They (the Americans)
made an attempt to ignore
the established procedure.
Thus our a ored trucks

bar the way and then the

'They looked as if they had built in haloes around their faces" This is how BIA Commissioner Philleo Nash described the children at Wainwright, Alaska.
 The head of the Bureau of h. dian Affairs said he found his get acquainted trip to northern Alas ka ''one of the most wonderful and unique" in his entire life. It was not hard to tell that the chil- dren of Wainwright and Barrow had touched soft spot in his heart.
 "When we landed at Wainwright and taxied to stop, there was a rather steep bank with a drift on it. All at once the children with their parkas appeared over the top of it. Instead of running down the incline, they slid down to where the plane was resting Nash said. Relying his strong personality and rugged features, the Commis- sioner proved to be man of easy charm. At the meeting with native students at the University of AL aska, he demonstrated this with a sprinkling of keen sense of humor.
 After the informal meeting, the students gathered around him and had lengthy session of uninhibited conversation.
 Upon his return from Barrow and Wainwright, the Commissioner was realistic about his findings in those communities. On the subject of economic development, he said:
 Before any small industries in native communities can be estab- lished villages will have to work hard to install utilities, water systems, and disposal systems. With out these, it will be difficult to es- tablish small industries"
 On high schools: 1.-TWO high schools are on the planning stage at the present time. If we get the appropriations, we plan to build one at Barrow and one at Kotze-

At Barrow in addition to review ing the Barrow gas problem at community meeting with people there. ne dedicated that commun- ity's new million-dollar school.
 For every two children in federal schools, there are three children in public schools, Commissioner Nash said.
 He said the policy of Bureau of Indian Affairs all along has been to move ahead as quickly as pos sible so that children, whether they be Indian. Eskimo, or Aleut-will be uniformly educated in exactly the same manner as all children by their living at horne and attend ing nearby day school, by having modern school plant with highly qualified teachers and supported by local tax revenues with some aid from the federal government but not with a great deal of federal con- trol.
 'The federal government remains in the education business in remote locations which because of lack of economic development are not able to support public school districts or support costly school operation"
 In the more settled areas, Nash said the Bureau was turning over to public school districts the schools the bureau had built and that these areas with some assistance were locally determining school policies and participating in school affairs.
 The bureau is connected with the education of 100000 youth, of which 60000 attend public school and 10,- 900 go to mission schools. The re- maining sO,O00 attend federal schools.
Tundra times., 1963-02-04

These young people who go to federal schools don't come from English speaking homes. They have the problem of not only learning the difficult art of the printed word but learning it in what is es- sentially a foreign language" Nash said.
 Not only do the federal schools, Nash pointed out that there is a very peculiar kind of school situa- tion-for the mosS part, federal schools don't have school boards.
 He said that instead of school boards the government through branch of his bureau made decisions about schools-about standards. textbooks, how much vocational ed- ucation there would be, and so forth.
 Government is by it's very na- ture, authoritarian" he said, eff there are dollars to spend, and I can assure you there are many, many of them.'
 Congress gives money to the Sec- retary of the Interior. he gives some to me. I give some to MT. Bennett and then he gives some to MT. Coombs for education in the many areas of the state.
 "It comes from the top down to the bottom"
 Commissioner Nash pointed out that this method of operating schools is contrary to the way pub- lie schools are operated, and the way public schools developed in the early history of America. He said people on the frontier built schools for their children and taxed themselves for this purpose.

Another Village From Interior Plans to Move
Holikachuk, Alaska January IF, 1863

January IF, 1863
 Dear Editor:
 Recently read your newly pub- lished paper and I was very pleased with it. l think your paper is the thing to unite the Natives of Alaska closer together.
 The council members of this will lage, of which I am secretary treas urer, are finishing up their plans for our big move that is to start this coming spring.
 We started our plans last winter but at times we weren't definite. Now the move is definitely going to start this coming spring. We already have a warehouse for our spring supplies up at the new site.
 We are moving the village from its present site on the Innoko Riv- CT. We feel that we have better op- portunities to improve our standard of living at the new site.
 Our people have again completed | their Indian dance that takes place about this time every year. We all had a wonderful time with lots of laughs. I personally feel that our native kind of dances are better than the up-to-date white mans dances.
 Our dances have a meaning to them. Whereas the other dances are just twisting and jumping around the floor with no pattern to follow at all.
 More and more the people in this village are taking interest in their ways of living. They are always trying to improve their houses.
 There are so many things for me to write about, like dog races, and other community activities.
 Please reply and let me know immediately if your paper is will ing to carry the story of our move and I will then send you story.
 Closing with good regards,

Letter to Editor

Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
 January 16, 1863 Dear Editor:
 In Vol. 1 No. 3 of the Tundra Times there is an article by Martha Teeluk on Eskimo Halloween" In it she states that since her child hood the Eskimos have had their own version of Halloween call "Gariitaq"
 She describes how young men with their faces blackened, wearing masks and old clothes stuffed to give a ludicrous appearance, visit from house to house dancing and gesticulating but in complete sil- ence.
 This is undoubtedly a very old custom because it is widespread throughout the Eskimo region.
 There is an almost identical cus- tom in Greenland where the dis guised men are known as "mitar- tut"
 Two detailed description of "mi- tartut" have been published lately, one in Meddelelser on Gronland Vol. 161, No. 5, and the other in Folk" Vol. 2. 4 -rF-e
 They draw attention to the para1- lels in Alaska and elsewhere among the Eskimos.
 Yours sincerely,

TU ND RIA TIMES

The Bureau of Indian Affairs is in the midst of a gigantic school building program in which it hopes by 1865 to provide space for every child that wants an elementary edu- cation.
 According to Philleo Nash, com missioner of the BIA. last week in Fairbanks, efforts are mainly con- centrated on the Navajo reservation in Arizona and in Alaska.
 "In these two places the cost of building schools. the problems of design, construction. operation. and supply are so great we have never yet caught up with cur obligation" i" Nash said
 He went on to point out, however, that this year the bureau is build ing $50 million in schools, and in the budget now before Congress there is request for $50 million more for school construction next year.
 We are going to keep building at this rate until we fulfill our ob- ligation and Congress has indicated that it wants to appropriate money for this purpose"
 If everything else remains the same. we will reach this obligation in 1865"
 Commissioner Nash just recently completed 10-day tour of Alaska, visiting Anchorage, Fairbanks, Bar row. Wainwright. Juneau, Sitka, and Metlakatla Because of a delay in arriving, he had to cancel pro- posed trips to Nome. Buckland, and Kotzebue.

Cherries Brighten
February Meals

February is traditionally
"cherry month";, ever since the
legend began about George Wash
ington chopping down the cherry
tree. But even If February
weren't the month of Wash
ington's birthday, cherries would
still be a popular dessert this
time Of year because they add a
colorful touch to dark winter
days. And Valentines Day, with
its red and white color scheme,
is another ideal time to serve
pretty cherry desserts, says
Miss Janet Coblentz, extension
food specialist at the University
of Delaware.
Miss CoblentZ offers two exotic
looking, but easy to make cherry
pie recipes ideal for February
parties or family desserts.
To make Cherry Chiffon Pie,
drain one pound can of red tart
cherries and combine and 1/2
cup of the cherry juice, / 1/3
cups sugar, a dash of salt and
one envelope of unflavored gela-
tin. Cook until mixture comes
to a boil, stirring constantly,
add a drop or two of almond
flavoring, and cool until mixture
thickens. Then beat three egg
whites and Ia teaspoon cream
of tartar until soft peaks form,
gradually add 1/3 cup sugar, and
continue beating until stiff. In
another bowl, beat 1/2 cup heavy
cream until very stiff. Fold
cherry mixture into beaten egg
whites, then fold in whipped
cream. Heap into a baked nine
inch pie shell and chill we'll be-
fore serving.
To make Easy Cherry Fluff Pie
drain a one pound can of tart
red cherries, reserving l 1/2
cups of juice. Water may be
added to juice to complete the
measure. Combine one package

gar and the cherry juice. Coo
over medium heat until mixture
comes to a full boil, stirring
constantly. Stir in the cherries
and cool to room temperature.
Fold In 1 cup stiffly whipped
heavy cream and spoon into baked
nine-inch pie shell. Chill before
serving.
In addition to pies, many other
colorful cherry dishes can add in
tereSt to winter meals.
Miss Coblentz suggest a
cherry sauce for baked ham, tur-
key, chicken or roast pork. To
make a sauce, add cornstarch to
the cherry juice and cook few
minutes until thick. Stir In cher

amount of radiation may not de-
velop a cancer tumor for several
decades. BY then the exposure
which caused it might be for

AT any rate, whether caused by
chemical or virus, fallout or
sunlight, or a combination of
factors, medical science is
CLOSING in on cancer.
It may be that some cancer
research sounds more like shoot
ling in the dark than enlightened
experimentation. But there Is
nothing hit-or miss about the
cumulative results of such work.
In fact, some physicians think
that these patient men have al
ready started giving us the
"cure." 1t depends upon your
point Of reference.
Irradiation, certain drugs, and
surgery have prevented death
from cancer among thousands
and enabled them to live until
death caught up from other
causes including old age.
In a sense, this is a cure a
cure for some cases of some
forms of cancer. Every year
more people are surviving can
Ger, a good indication that our
techniques and treatment are
progressing. Carry this progress
sion far enough, and cancer will
no longer remain a major health
problem.
In other words, the final
"cure" is already underway. But

slow series of steps rather than

How long until medical science

This question has taken on new
urgency In the minds Of many
since the deaths Of four Holly
wood actors within 16 days OF

and Dick Powell.
The impact Of these headlines
touched off what was described
as "mild panic" among
Southern California men, who

ters In record numbers.
That a cure will be found for
cancer seems well-nigh in
evitable. More research and
more scientific articles touch
on this subject than any other,
including space and radiation :
one of the causes of. cancer.
II is a subject which pervades
every medical speciality, and
forms the basis for what Is
probably the biggest worry in
the United States today, out
stripping even the individuals
concern over nuclear war. Sud-
den death can't compete with
the idea Of lingering suffering,
which cancer conjures in the
minds Of many.

But despite all the man-hours,
all the millions OF dollars and
all the hope and fear that have
been poured into cancer during
the scientific revolution Of the
Twentieth Century, the disease
remains largely an enigma. No
body pretends to really know when
cancer will be cured, or even
what causes II.
Where mankind stands In re-
lation to cancer was made evident
at the American Medical Asso-
ciation's recent clinical meet
ing in Los Angeles. The picture
is not as gloomy as some would
have you believe, for the chaos
that pervaded the field a few
decades ago has been largely
cleared away. We seem to be
coming down to cases with the
disease.
For one thing there is finally
