PAGE EIGHT Truman Seeking Millions to Aid Work in Alaska Washington, Jan. 9 (IP Presi dent Truman today asked con gress to spend about $185,000,000 on Alaska during fiscal 1951 in the interests of "the security and economy of the nation." His annual budget message said $23,000,000 of that total was ear marked for natural resources de velopment. , "Other (Alaskan) functions," he said, " in particular national defense, transportation and social welfare will amount to approxi mately $162,000,000." Mr. Truman's budget break down failed to account for about one-third of his $185,000,000 Alas kan figure, opening the way for speculation that a good chunk of the unitemized money is embed ed in military funds. The bulk of those amounts are not budget ed according to where they will be spent, bui are listed under gen eral categories such as ordnance, quartermaster, etc. Seeks Millions Two of the biggest specified in creases over last year's Alaskan budget, however, are for activi ties conducted by the military. Mr. Truman asked for $6,100,000,- 000 for the army-operated Alaska communication system a 100 ' per cent increase over his fiscal 1950 request. He requested $11? 000,000 instead of the $3,000,000 he asked last fiscal year, for the navy's oil reserve work at Pt. Barrow. For construction and mainten ance of the Alaskan railroad, Mr. Truman wants $45,000,000. Last year at this time he asked $30, UOU.000 for tne railroad, for work on roads, trails and bridges, the budget would provide $23, 200,000 for fiscal 1951 as against $26,762,000 provided last year, ' Public Works Included Mr. Truman asked $12,000,000 for a newly-authorized public works program, JLast year he asked $1,000,000 for such activity. To complete work on airports at Anchorage and Fairbanks, he asked $3,200,000. Other Alaskan items in the bud' get are concerned mainly with natural resources on which" Mr. Truman put some emphasis In his message. "Alaska," he said, ''is a land of large, natural resources which must be developed in order for the area to make its contribution to the security and economy of the nation." Sums under $1,000,000 are re quested for salaries for territorial officials, fur seal Investigations, care of the Insane, care of tne indigent and for agricultural re- searcn.

A: Robins has formally ordered tne laano legislature to convene in special session on Feb. 6 to con sider a 17-point work schedule in cluding government reorganiza tion, tax reduction and sex crime control. i'he call was made In a procla mation which declared that "an extraordinary occasion and emer gency has arisen in the state of Idaho."

He proposed enactment of legislation 'to reducn taxpR either through income tax cuts or ad valorem tax slashes, or both. The governor also asked tha legislature to consider and enact laws providing for the proper and necessary apprehension "and pun- lauiiieiu or treatment oi persons charged with sex crimes and crimes of moral degeneracy." rvuuins aiso included consider ation of the highway reorganiza tion report on tne agenda. Provisions Made In calllne for consideration nf the state' government reorganiza tion and the highway reports, the governor did not specify that leg islation should be enacted.
