interview.
He expressed belief that Russia
would respond with troops if Jews

Union To Sponsor
Training School
0
SEATTLE, —A winter trade
school for Alaska cannery work
ers will operate again this year
only because 900 members of ma
chinists’ lodge 79 are willing to
pay $5 a piece to assure its con
tinuance.
The local’s officials reported
yesterday that sponsorship of the
school had been voted unanimous
ly by the members. The school
was started two years ago with the
help of five salmon packing com
panies, but the packers recently
notified the union it would be un
able to continue their sponsorship.
All but one of the 133 men
trained last year were rehired. Be
fore the school was started the
turnover among the lower cannery
worker classifications was 90 per
cent.

i Alaskans Fear A
New PearF Harbor
Says Gruening
CLEVELAND, (/P) — Alaska’s
90,000 people are restive and “fear
another Pearl Harbor may come
i along any day,” Gov. Ernest
Guening of Alaska fbld the Cleve
land chamber of commerce yester
day.
Alaska, “a victim of long-stand
’ ing neglect” by Washington and of
1 "the pork barrel system of legisla
tion,” wants statehood and both
military and economic equality
with the States,” he said.
Its one voteless Delegate to Con
gress ‘‘has to spread himself out so
1 thin that he can accomplish little
! if anything,” the governor added.
“His best job is not to do some
thing for Alaska, but to prevent or
undo measures that would hold
Alaska back.”
The Territory, under the Ameri
can flag for 60 years, has experi
enced “constant Congressional dis
crimination against the growth of
its agriculture, shipping and avia
tion,” he continued.
“In peace-time, defense follows
the pork barrel formula. We are
thinking of sending hundreds of
millions to Europe to fight off
communism, but is it good sense to
forget our back door; from Alaska
we can see Siberia. We want a
stable economy based on agricul
ture with modern aids to the far
mer. Give us statehood and we’ll
get our share.”
Did you know the steaks and
chops cut less than an inch thick
are more successfully broiled in
the pan than in the oven? And
that broiled meats should be sea
soned after broiling instead of be
fore because salt tends to draw
out juices?

As one Indian commented:
“It’s all very pleasant but it’s

Billions for Europe
Maybe U.S. Navajos
Will Get Food
WASHINGTON, <£>)—Congress
members knee deep in billion-dol
lar plans to help western Europe
ans gave heed today to a* plea that
they shell out $2,000,000 to keep
Navajo Indian tribesmen from
starving to death right here in
America.
Chairman Welch (R.-Calif.> of
the House public lands committee
called a hearing tomorrow on the
Navajo aid bill outlined by Pres
ident Truman and secretary of the
interior Krug. Welch said he ex
pected to bring the measure before
Congress during the special ses
sion.
Krug told Congress late yester
day that the plight of the 61,000
Navajos is such that they must
have emergency aid to avoid
“starvation on their reservation
this winter.”
The reservation, which is about
-the size of West Virginia, lies in
Arizona, New Mexico and Utah.
Krug said its resources at the
present level of development and
use “will support not more than
35,000 persons at a minimum
level of living.”
