Talmadge Warns
Against Voting
Alaska Statehood
Washington (UPI Sen.
Herman E. Talmadge (D-Ga.)
charged today that giving
statehood to Alaska may lend
weight to Communist propa
ganda that the United States
is an "imperialist" nation.
Talmadge. reopening south
ern fire against the bill, told
the Senate:
"We may be about to put
ourselves into the dangerous
and undesired position of at
tempting to become, instead
of the. United States of Amer
ica, the United States of the
World."
His attack followed an ap
peal by Sen. John F. Kennedy
(D-Mass.) for an end to the
"inertia" -which he said has
delayed a vote on the bill.
Should Look at French
Talmadge said those who
cannot see the difficulties in
volved in admitting a "non
contiguous state" should "re
flect upon the experience of
the French in attempting to
absorb the country of Algeria
into metropolitan France."
If Alaska is admitted, he
said, demands for statehood
will then come from Guam,
the Virgin Islands and trust
territories. He said arguments
for statehood "stem from emo
tion rather than Ipgic."
Kennedy appealed for quick
action on the House-passed
legislation as the third day of
Senate debate began.
"The moment for action has
arrived," he said. "The right
time is now."

THAT'S RIGHT. Only 1 patient out of 3 is a subscriber.
The other two must pay.
Any resident living within 150 miles of Medford, Ore
gon, can and should be a subscriber to Mercy Flights. At
$4 a year per family, it is the only way that a wage
earner can afford air ambulance service for his family.
Accidents don't just happen to "someone else." The most
common comment by Mercy Flights patients is: "I never
thought that WE would need Mercy Flights."
If the time ever arises when your family is saying this.
wouldn't it be better to be a subscriber? For a non-subscriber,
the fee is $70 for every 100 miles the patient
is flown. '
NO OTHER
AREA ...
in the United States has a service like
Mercy Flights. The three twin-engine
planes are operated for only one rea
son, and that is to save your life.
Don't wait until it's too late! If you are
not a subscriber, send your $4 today
