Outlawing All
Communists
_
SEATTLE, (Ah — Declaring it
“inconceivable’ that signers of the
American Constitution “intended
to license abuse and destruction of
our domestic privileges by an un
scrupulous minority,” nation a 1
commander James F. O’Neil of
the American Legion last night
proposed that the United States
“outlaw the Communist party and
its organs, and deport aliens who
adhere to Communism.”
In a Columbus Day address be
fore the Seattle Council of the
Knights of Columbus, the Man
; Chester, N. H., Legionnaire pro
posed also that the United States:
“Lock our immigration doors
against Communism;
“Expedite the loyalty checks
\ without fear or favor;
j “Apprehend and prosecute ac
l tive agents of the party on
grounds of treason, to show the
; Communists that we mean busi
ness.”
He spoke strongly in favor of
universal military training which
he described as “the core of any
defense system.”
Four other “needs” of a nation
, al preparedness program he de
scribed as retention of the armed
: forces and reserve components at
I quota strength; continuation of
i scientific research; stock piling of
I strategic materials; and “an effi
i cient, central intelligence system.”

Lay Off Some
Men; Not 4,000
SEATTLE, </P)—A report by a ;
federal government official in
Juneau that the Birch Johnson &
Lytle Co., would soon discharge
approximately 4,000 construction 1
workers on army projects in inte
rior Alaska was minimized here
Saturday by E. W. Dunn, the com
pany’s assistant general manager.
Dunn said that normal re
trenchment is underway due to the
nearness of the winter season, but
layoffs would not approach the (
4,000 figure.
He explained that many of the,
men were non-Alaskan residents
who were being returned to the
States at their own request.
Harold Gronross, veterans' em
ployment representative of the U.
S. department of labor, said in
Juneau Friday that 2,000 men
working on army installations at;
Anchorage would be discharged
within the next few weeks and ap
proximately that many more
would be let out at Ladd Field ,
and Mile 26 projects near Fair
j banks.
Sen. Cain Not For
“Ike” for President
! WASHINGTON, i/P) — Senator [
j Cain (R.-Wash.> asked about Gen
eral Dwight D. Eisenhower as a
Presidential possibility, said yes
terday that few men have a simi
I lar mastery “of things military
and political.”
Cain, in a radio interview, de
clined otherwise to comment on
the developing drive among some
Republicans to nominate the army
I chief of staff for President. Eisen
hower is to become president of
Columbia university next year.
! The west coast Senator was
asked about the adequacy of
Alaskan defenses against the pos- 1
! sibility of an attack by Russia. He 1
1 replied:
“I would say that the defenses
of Alaska are keeping pace with
| the needs and the demands of the
day in which we live. I, as a citi- ■
( zen and not a Senator, was very
much encouraged by what I saw
going on in those northern lands |
of ours.”
I Cain was in Alaska for several
weeks recently. He said that .‘If
trouble comes,” Alaska would be
the first point of attack.

Three Youths
: Rob Oregon Bank !
Of $11,500 |
_ I
CARLTON, Ore. (JP) — Three
young, poised bandits, who robbed!
the Carlton State and Savings j
bank of $11,500 Friday in Ore-1
gon’s third daylight bank holdup!
within six months, are being;
sought by the police.
The trio, swathed in red ban-j
danas, carried out the four-min
j ute-long robbery .with such dis-j
j patch that the bank’s only twoj
j customers, chatting at a side coun- {
ter, noticed nothing wrong.
While one man held a gun on j
two bank examiners and two tel.-.
ers and another guarded the door,|
the third forced Teller Minnie (
Bloom to hand over currency from
the cash drawer and vault.
Then, shoving aside a customer
just entering the bank, the three
piled into a slate-colored car and |
vanished down the highway be-'
fore police could establish road
blocks.
Zeusler Becomes i
Asst. President Of
Alaska SS. Co.
SEATTLE, </P)—F. A Zeusler,
retired Coast Guard admiral,
oceanographer and veteran of
many Alaska cruises, today was
named assistant to the president
of the Alaska Steamship com
pany.
The announcement was made by
Gilbert W. , Skinner, company
president.
He said Admiral Zeusler’s im
mediate duties largely will be
concerned with public relations.
Later, negotiations with the United
States maritime commission and
with Congressional representa
tives are expected to take Zeusler
frequently to Washington, D. C.
Admiral Zeusler, veteran of
both world wars, retired from the
Coast Guard last vear after serV
|
ing as Seattle district coast guard
i
commander for two years. Previ- ;
ous to that, he commanded the
Alaska Coast Guard sector of the
Northwest Sea Frontier.
There’s one strong inconsistency,
I’ve pondered on a heap:
My neighbor’s radio keeps me
awake,
Mine puts me to sleep.
