residence in Alaska, labeled as
“fallacious" the arguments that
the present Statehood bill does
not provide for enough land.
“The present Statehood bill
would give Alaska about the same
amount of land given the more re
cently admitted Territories,” he
declared, “and we are not asking
fo rmore favorable terms than
other Territories received, al
though we might make a good
case for more liberal terms on ac
count of our strategic position in
the national defense picture.”
Talbot expressed confide nee
Alaska would develop more rap
idly as a State, as have other for
mer Territories.
‘There is a great deal being
said these days about free elec
tion and ‘self-determination’ of
people all over the world,” he
added. ‘‘Alaskan’s have proven
unmistakably that they want
statehood.”

which a delicious buffet supper
was enjoyed.
Three members of the Odd Fel
lows who have birthdays at the
same time as the order’s anniver

tional part of the annual celebra
tion. They were Charles D. Jones,
Albin Poison and Antonio Polet,

Browder Gives
Lie To Budenz’
Testimony
J
WASHIN GTON, (/P) — Earl
Browder, former Communist par
ty chief, told Senate investigators
yesterday that “the the best of my
knowledge and belief" there art
no communists in the state de
partment.
Browder, who was expelled
from the communist party in
1946, said that if he knew of any
communists in the department he
would say so but that he doesn t
know of any.
Edward Morgan, counsel to a
Senate foreign relations sub-com
mittee, asked him if he would
give names if he knew them.
Browder: said: ‘No, I would not
give you the names.”
Morgan: “If you knew there
were any communists in the state
department would you tell me
that?”
Browder: “Yes. To the best of
my knowledge and belief there
are not any in the state depart
ment.”
Browder also told the commit
tee that he has never met Owen
Lattimore but knows him by rep
utation “as a person of anti-coin
munist views of a very profound
character.”
Specifically and flatly. Browder
contradicted testimony from Louis
F. Budenz that Lattimore’s name
came up at a meeting of com
munist leaders in New York City
in October, 1937.
