Major Need

Recent Oil Discovery
Adds To Riches; Lack
Of Highways Handicap
By WILLIAM J. TOBIN
JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) Call It
the Last Frontier or the Land of
the Midnight Sun.
Call it big, or rugged, or beauti
ful; a land of mighty contrast.
Describe it as friendly or fierce,
or a place in which to stake your
future, or to pull up stakes.
But most of all call it the 49th
slate Alaska, the great land
and soon to be the newest mem
ber of the Union.
It probably will be late this year
or early January before the last
formalities of admission are taken
care of.
But there's no longer any doubt
that Alaska after nearly 91 years
lis a territorial possession of the
United States will be a full
member of the Union.
Alaskan voters, turning out in
record numbers, settled the ques
tion of statehood Tuesday. By an
overwhelming majority they ac
cepted term of an admission act
passea ny congress in junc.
For the first time since 1912,
when New Mexico and Ariiona be
came states, a new star will be
added to the nation I flag.
Twice Six. ot Texas
The new star will represent a
vast area unlike any other under
Ihe flag an immense chunk of
land, twice as big as Texas, mat
spans four time zones and extends
far north of the Arctic Circle.
In many respects, Alaska is far
more modern than most residents
of the old 48 states suspect. In oth
er ways, she remains a vast and
forbidding area that will challenge
!l,e most pioneering of America's
youth.
Statehood for Alaska, to its 215,
000 residents, will bring a satchel
full of new problems but will set
tle some of the drawbacks that
have hindered development in the
past.
Alaska has great fish, timber
and mineral industries and a
great part of its economy depends
on military construction programs.
Most of these activites are season
al, however, and a prime objective
of the new state will h tie de
velopment of year-round Industry.
Oil Discovery Hailed
The brighest hope one which
promises a pulsing new lifeline in
Alaska economy is oil. Discov
eries south ot Anchorage. Aaska's
largest city, have led i n d u t r y
lenders to forecast a bright pe
troleum future for the 49lh state.
Pulp paper production already
underway at a giant mm at neicn
ikan will almost double in
Alaska by 1IH30 when a Japanese
financed mill begins operation at
Sitka.
Anolher hope for a big increase
in industrial activity centers
around explorations for coking
coal along the gulf coast near
Cordova. Japanese interests are
seeking fuel for steel mills. They
hope known but untapped coal
fields east of Cordova can be
mined. Alaskans hope so, too.
More People Needed
Slatehood advocates, who have
battled for more than a genera
linn to end territorial status, hope
Alaska's entrance into the union
will mean a population boom.
As much as it needs industry.
Alaska needs new cititeni to
scratch its ruRged face and de
velop potentials in minerals, pow
er and agriculture on which its
economic future depend.
11 won't be easy. Alaska's loca
tion far north of its nearest
neighboring state of Washington.
makes living costs high. Most con
sumer goods are imported.
One of Alaska's most urgent
needs are highway Jink to tne
states. The only roadway to the
"outside" is the Alaska Highway
through Western Canada.
Highways Not Ad.qutt.
New Highways closer to the Pa
ride Coast through Canada are
needed. And a vast network of
ruads is needed to augment a slim
highway system now serving scat
tered points in Ihe interior. No
connecting roadways link the cities
of Southeastern Alaska, sprinkled
on the shores of islands in some of

Give Jitters
To Dredge Crew
PORTLAND (AP) People who
run boats around on the Willam
ette River are giving the crew of
the dredge Luckiamule the jitters.
There is appalling ignorance of
rules of the river, says Carl V.
Mattson, master of the dredge.
Four blasts on the whistle are
a warning lignal. But most boat
operators regard it happily as a
greeting.,
One man in a rowboat drifted
over cables anchored ashore to
hold the dredfie against the cur
rent, while holding aloft a six
inch fis''..
Water skiers have tangled them
selves in the cables.
The water skiers are the biggest
worry producers on the river, says
Col. Walter L. Winegar, Portland
district engineer. They try to pass
the dredge at high speed, un
aware of cables running ashore.
The dredge has been moving
about from sandbar to sandbar
but mostly is in the area around
Wheatland Ferry, Salem, Indepen
dence, Albany, Buena Vista and
Corvallis. Later it will go below
Oregon City. Boaters, the colonel
suggests, should look to dredge
rewmen for directions before
passing it.

1. Joseph Ferrer, denounced by
Chairman John L. McClellan (D

invoked the Fifth Amendment 35
times in refusing to answer ques

bushing of taxi drivers in 1953.
2. Barney Dandridge, who has
served as a St. Louis constable,
took the Fifth -Amendment too in
refusing to say whether he had
participated in gunplay or beatings
involving teamsters memDers.
3. Howard H. Hartman, former
recording secretary for Teamster
Local 405 in St. Louis, told the
committee he quit In 1953 when he
couldn't find out anything about
the unit's finances and specif
ically what happened to some $18,
000 raised for a welfare fund.
4. Three men referred to as
goons by McClellan declined to
say whether they had done strong-

son of a former St. lamia police
lieutenant, and brothers Wilbourne

Favors Severance
Tax On Timber
SALEM (AP) L. H. Williams,
a member of the Lane County
Board of Equalization, told the
state Tax Commission Monday that
a severance tax on timber would
be better than the present system.
He testified at the commission's
hearing on timber tax variations
now in its eighth week.
Williams was a member of the
board which reduced assessments
levied by the county assessor 68
per cent.
He had been unable to appear
when other members of the board
testified earlier.
He explained there was a pos
sible discrepancy in the amount
of timber assessed owing to a
change from the sample plot to
the wedg prism method of de
termining stands.
Also scheduled to testify today
were Jack P. Bathrick, property
appraiser for the Douglas County
I'tsessor's office, and George
Ncuner, a Roseburg attorney who
will speak on behalf of a group
of Douglas County timber oper
ators. Govt Brief Opposes
Integration Delay
(Continued From Page One)
er Eisenhower himself sees any
difference, Hagcrty said he hadn't
asked the President. He prom
ised to do so later.
Technically, Rankin's no-delay
brief, filed a few hours before the
court opening, was addressed to
Iht specific situation at Little
Rock. But it contained a general
do-it-now argument which could
apply in any situation wiiere pun
lie oDDOsition to desegregation is
the basis for efforts to hold off
immediate mingling of the races
in classrooms.
Eisenhower, in speaking of a
slower approach Wednesday, add
ed that he believed the Justice De
partment brief the one filed to
day hy Rankin would not diverge
greatly from nis own views.
Two Barriers Targets
The two barriers the NAACP
wants knocked down are:
The order by the U.S. District
Court in Little Rock permitting a
i'-j-year delay in integration; and
A ruling by the Circuit Court of
Appeals in St. Louis staying its
order which would void the 2i
year delay. The stay by the Cir
cuit Court was granted pending a
decision by the Supreme Court
The government's brief, filed by
Solicitor General J. Lee Itankin
said the original decision of the
Circuit Court knocking out tne 2'i
year delay was clearly correct.
The government brief, filed in
response to an Invitation from the
Supreme Court for the Justice De
parlment to take part in the rase
said the high court has full power
to grant the relief asked hy the
NAACT. II said further that such
relief should be granted.
Stressing that the only purpose
of the stay granted by the Court
of Appeals was to give the high
court an opportunity to consider
the ruling, tne government urged
that Ihe whole Little Rock litiga
tion be decided in one bundle.

Quemoy Invasion
Threat Spurs U.S.
Defense Activity
TAIPEI, Formosa (AP) Na
tionalist and U.S. planes conduct
ed joint air defense exercises to
day over the coast of Formosa
as Red Chinese batteries contin
ued to pound the Nationalist-held
islands just off th coast of main
land China.
The announcement by the U.S.
Formosan command gave no de
tails of the joint air maneuvers.
But it obviously was designed to
point up American backing for the
Nationalists in hopes it would de
ter the Red Chinese from trying
an invasion of the offshore is
lands. As the Communist artillery at
tack on the Quemoy Island group
pounded through its sixth day, Na
tionalist intelligence sources re
ported Red land and sea move
ments they interpreted as the
prelude to an invasion attempt.
A Defense Ministry spokesman
said the Reds battered Quemoy
with more than 16,000 shells in
the 19 hours before dawn and
that sporadic shelling continued
through the daylight hours.
The fact vthat the Reds have ex
pected more than 100,000 pounds
of shells added weight to the be
lief that an invasion attempt is
imminent.
TOKYO (AP) Peiping radio
said today Red China has warned
Nationalist Chinese defenders on
Quemoy to "withdraw. ..since the
island is doomed.. .a landing is im
minent." T'he message said Communist
Chinese forces "are determined to
liberate the coastal Chinese is
lands and Taiwan (Formosa),"
Peiping reported.

contained but not controlled. Hunt
said that meant there was a line
around it but no assurance the
line would hold when the winds
come up.
Th Canyon Creek fire was at
1,000 acres today, burning in an
area 2Vi mites by a mile in the
rugged country on the north side
of Breitenbush Creek.
S. T. Moore, dispatcher at the
Detroit Ranger Station, said it
was controlled on three sides Wed
nesday night but this morning
was still spreading through green
timber on the north.
'Copters. Transport Man
Three helicopters were put to
use ferrying men to the fire lines.
It is a 3,000-foot climb through
c'iff cut timber. The copters were
putting the men on the lines both
rwiflly and in fresh condition.
Moore said. Planes were dropping
supplies to them.
Four hundred men were con
centrated today on the north side
of the fire. Another 400 were
spread out on the other thro sides
of the fire. Another 400 were
spread out on the other three sides
for mop-up and in fighting some
40 to 45 other fires in the Detroit
district, most of them Small.
It was overcast at Detroit this
morning but the clouds began to
break up. Winds of 8 to 13 miles
an hour were forecast but Moore
said they pick up velocity over
Ihe lake at Detroit and hit the
flames at a swifter tempo.
The fire is burning up the draws
and side drainages of Breitenbush
Creek. Moore described it as
burning briskly at dawn as it fed
on concentrated fuels.
Another of the state's important
fires of the week, the Bunker
Creek blaze 35 miles northwest of
Grants Pass near the Rogue Riv
er, was controlled Wednesday
night. The lines still were holding
today.
Midday humidity Wednesday of
about 50 per cent was a help in
control, H. C. Ohye. supervisor of
Siskiyou National Forest, said. A
1 i fht sprinkle that came during
the day was of small help he said,
but the rising humidity along with
an evening fog helped and Ihe fire
made no run during the day.
