Grand Jury Clears
Collector Brown
—
ANCHORAGE. (JP) — A federal !
grand jury has- given a clean bill 1
to Archie L. Brown, who resigned j
last May as deputy collector of
taxes here, and expressed regret
over his “embarrassment and dis
comfort.”
The jury described his resigna
tion as “the loss of an efficient
public servant.”
Brown never was charged with
any offense, but he resigned after
Atty. Gen. J. Gerald Williams
called for a grand jury probe into
his office accounts.
The jury addressed a letter to
Biown in which it said there was
no evidence of “alleged irregulari
ties.”
“On the contrary,” the unique
letter continued, “we wish to com
mend you on your industry and
efforts on behalf of the Territorial
department of taxation and com
pliment you upon the fact that af
ter your having handled over a
million dollars of Territorial mon
ies, the ^final audit indicated ev
erything is in order.
“We regret that you underwent
embarrassment and discomfort in
the commuiity by virtue of pub
licity indicating that you were
guilty of some criminal charge.”

First Session Of
Congress Adjourn*
Much Work Ahead
(Continued from Page One
their way.
The President noted in letters tc
House Speaker Rayburn and Viet
President Barkley, the Senate’s
presiding officer, that it had beer
a long,hard session. Then h<
added:
“I am confident that the Amer
ican people will agree that the re
suits have been well worth while.’
In the House chamber, thret
girls who work for Congressiona
committees serenaded the Repre
sentatives with “The Eyes o1
Texas” and “Down By The Ok
Mill Stream.”
In the Senate, Senator Donnel
(R.-Mo.) shyly poked fun at Bark
ley for his reported romance with
Mrs. Carleton S. Hadley, St. Loui.(
widow. Barkley responded ir
kind.
At Donnell’s invitation to visit
Missouri during the recess, Bark
ley grinned broadly. Maybe, hf
said as the Senate chuckled, bul
“not in my capacity as Vice Presi
dent.”
The lawmakers face a heavy
schedule when they return in
January. Awaiting them will be
i such warmed-over international
problems as that of extending the
European recovery and foreign
' arms assistance programs, as well
as such recurring domestic issues
. as rent control, extension of the
low-rent housing program and re
peal of the Taft-Hartley act.
Alaskan Delegate Bartlett, who
returned to Washington only a
few weeks ago from his Alaskan
home, will depart next week for
the Territory. He will participate
in fisheries hearings there.
Rep. Tollefson <R.-Wash.) is en
route home by automobile. Tollef
son will leave for Alaska in a few
days as a member of a House
merchant marine sub-committee
assigned to investigate the Terri
tory’s fisheries problems.
