Anchorage To
Clean Up City
ANCHORAGE, (A5)— Municipal
and Territorial law enforcement
officers agreed at a closed meet
ing Friday on a concerted cam
paign to rid Anchorage and vicin
ity of “all forms of vice,” the An
chorage Times reported.
Officials declined comment but
the paper said “the word is out
that slot machines, card games,
gambling in all forms and other
vices will be banished.”
The Times said one develop
ment was assignment of an active
part in the enforcement program
to the U. S. Marshal’s office. Un
til now, the paper added, the mar
shal’s office has restricted activi
ties to process serving.
Texas at least is consistent in
segregation policy. Under the
state constitution and laws, white
and Negro students must be edu
cated separately. Negro students
have been denied admission to
schools for whites. And now the
attorney general has held that a
white ^citizen “may not legally
be admitted to the Texas State
University for Negroes.”
ADMIRALTY ISLAND
MAY BECOME PARK
WASHINGTON, (JP)—A bill to
make Admiralty Island, Alaska, a
public park and game refuge was
introduced Saturday by Senator
Capper (R.-Kas.).
The bill says that the park shall
be under the control of the secre
tary of the interior and that his
regulations shall be “aimed at the
freest use of said park for recrea
tion purposes by the public and
for the preservation of the natural
curiosities and scenic beauties
thereof.”
A provision would permit pros
pectors and miners, however, to
shoot game or birds “as may be
needed for their actual necessities
when short of food.”
The bill would authorize an ex
penditure of $20,000 a year to
maintain the park.
A notation on a copy of the bill
sent by messenger to the Asso
ciated press said it was the last
bill to be introduced by Capper,
who is retiring.
The oldest known manuscript
of the Bible, a fourth century
copy, was found in Mt. Sinai.

Land Withdrawals
_ j
! ANCHORAGE, (/P) — Three
more land withdrawals for colon
ization projects in Alaska will be
made in the near future, officials
of the Alaska Development board
said Saturday.
' George Sundborg, consultant
Herbert Hilscher and other board
j officials said news of interior de
partment plans for additional
withdrawals came from William
E. Warne, assistant secretary, af
ter the development board pro
tested two previous withdrawals.
The Alaskans said it was indi
J cated additional withdraw a 1 s
would be made under procedures
similar to those on the Kenai pe
ninsula and at Dunbar. Locations
of future settlement projects were
not disclosed.
Sundborg and Hilscher said the
i development board presented
, Warne with resolutions request
ing public hearings before land
withdrawals are made.
“Instead of getting assurance
| that Alaskans will be heard in
connections with colonization
plans,” Sundborg said, “we were
| told Of three additional withdraw
; als that would be forthcoming.”
A development board resolution
said secretary of interior Krug
had pledged publicly that no more
1 such withdrawals would be made
without previous consultat i o n
! with the people of Alaska. De
spite such pledges, the resolution
, added, “the people of Alaska
learned through announcements
from Washington that large with
drawals of (^sirable lands would
be made on the Kenai peninsula
and elsewhere for purposes not
clarified and for objects which in
all likelihood cannot be accom
plished within a reasonable length
of time.”
The resolution also asked that
! the Kenai Peninsula and Dunbar
withdrawals be restored for en
1 try, and that future withdrawals
| be made only after “proper hear
i ings at which their purpose has
; been clarified and fully explain
1 ed to the people of Alaska.”

Search For Missing
Man Costs
Stagerging Sum j
EDMONTON, (JP)—A 60-year
old man’s submission to the urge
to “get away from it all’ is be- j
lieved responsible for an air
search which to date has cost
more than $35,000, Northwest Air
Command said Saturday.
Missing is V. B. Murray of
Washington, D. C., civilian air
man who last Friday sent a letter
I to a United States friend saying
that he was “leaving civilization
for a while” next day filed a
flight plan to Grande Prairie, 240
I miles northwest, and never ar
rived.
A 25,000-square-mile area—100
miles broad along the line of his
indicated route — searched many
times by R.C.A.F. and civilian air

though rumors of an airplane in
trouble has filtered out of the
dense bushland area.
I Meanwhile, Margaret Olden
, burg, retired geologist of the uni
versity of Minnesota, her pilot
and the pilot’s wife, have been re
ported “found, safe and alive.’
Miss Oldenburg was reported
