! Butler Charges
Sundborg Gets
j Votes By Coercion
I ((#*) Special Washington Service)
| WASHINGTON, (P) — Senator
! Butler (R.-Neb.) said Saturday
that Alaskans are “not strangers
to the pernicious practice of hav
ing the promise of extra rewards
from tax funds dangled before
their eyes—to influence their
choice of candidates at the poll.”
His comment came as he pre
sented to the Senate a letter
which he said was written by
George Sundborg, a consultant of
the Alaska Development Board, to
Arvo Saario, president * of the
Northwest Alaska • Chamber of
Commerce in Nome, Alaska. It
was dated March 14, 1950.
In a statement for the Congres
sional Record, Butler said Saario
had asked the Development Board
to establish a branch office • in
; Nome, to support a program to
| promote business. * * *
Butler said that in reply Sund
: borg wrote that the board had not
’ been able to establish such an of
i
fice “for budgetary reason.” But
| ler said Sundborg added in his
I letter that “all four of the Sena
! tors from the Second Division
L
voted in the 1947 Legislative ses
sions to completely abolish the
[Alaska Development Board.”
Sundborg named the Senators.
Butler said that Sundborg’s let
( ter told of other activities by the
; four Senators which did not sup
' port the board, and then read the
concluding paragraph of the let
ter:
“Whether we will be able to
proceed toward these objectives
next biennium will depend entire
ly on action taken by the 1951 leg
islature and, of course, upon the
makeup of that body.”
Butler told the Senate:
“This is another example, small
but revealing, of government by
pressure. It is activity which ill
i becomes the appointed official of
a government entity now aspiring
to statehood.”

Disapproved Navy
Secretary’s Speech
WASHINGTON, (£>)—'The state
Department Saturday expressed
sharp disapproval of a speech by
Navy Secretary Matthews at Bos
ton in which he said the United
States should be willing to start
a war in the interest of peace.
Reporters were told by press of
ficer Roger Tubby that the speech
“was not cleared by the depart
ment of state.” He added:
“Mr. Matthews’ remarks about
instituting a war for peace do not
represent U. S. policy. The United
States government does not favor
instituting a war of any kind.”
In his address, at the Boston
Navy Yard Friday night, the
navy’s civilian chief said this
country should be willing to pay
any price “even the price of in
stituting a war, to compel coopera
tion. for peace.”
He did not represent this view
to be government policy, though
it was stated by a cabinet officer
with the prestige he possesses.
State department officials and
many others in the administration
have always talked very strongly
against any action by the United
States or the Western powers to
undertake what is sometimes

With 120 Tanks
WASHINGTON, (/P)—The army
I reported new evidence Saturday
i of recent Russian shipments of

A briefing officer at defense
headquarters told reporters of the
development. The disclosure came
on the heels of a report from tW^
same source Friday that 120
heavy tanks were shipped to
North Korea in July from the
Russian-controlled Marichu r i a n
port of Dairen.
Russian spokesmen have insist

Coupled with the report on

contend that only by following a
policy of peace until compelled to
fight to resist aggression—as in
Korea—can the U. S. hope either
to achieve the kind of world it
wants or to maintain its position
of leadership among the peaceful
ly inclined nations. *
