President Truman fears that his
European aid program will start
another round of price increases.
The purpose of that program is to
save European countries from be
ing engulfed in a wave of Com
munism which would turn them
into police states, and menace the
security of the United States. Im
posing police state methods on the
American people to save the Ital
ians, French and other Europeans
from police state regimes doesn’t
make sense.

Joe Louis, In Bad
Shape, Keeps Title
_
NEW YORK, (/P> — Joe Louis
survived two knockdowns to de
feat Jersey Joe Walcott in a gruel
ling fifteen-round fight in Madi
son Square Garden to retain the
heavyweight championship.
The champion, whose left eye
was nearly closed in the last half
of the battle won on a split deci
sion. Both judges awarded him the
fight, but the referee favored Wol
cott. The crowd booed.
Wolcott blasted Louis down in
the first round for a count of two
and floored him for a count of
seven in the fourth round with
rights to the jaw. Jersey Joe fell
once, missing a wild swing, but
was never knocked down, and ap
peared fresh at the finish.
Walcott’s inability to evade
Louis’ lefts in the late rounds cost
»
him the title. Louis’ nose was
bleeding in the final stanza as he
chased Wolcott around the ring.

Wildlife In Alaska
Being Squandered

sands, as apparently do the admin
istrators or the men in power Out
side, I also could enjoy the Amer
ican way of life—see our resources
squandered and let the devil catch
the hindmost.”
Gillham said possibly 50,000 or
75,000 Dali sheep are making their
last stand in the Endicott and
Brooks ranges, where there is no
warden whatever.
“Caribou, often spoken of as the
staff of life in Alaska, are on their
way out,” he added.
“On the Richardson highway
out of Fairbanks less than 50 per
cent of them remain—the large,
beautiful Osborne caribou.
“On the Alaska Peninsula the
fine Grant caribou are reduced in
number, due in most part to the
influx of army personnel, their
desire to hunt, and their presence
blocking some of the migratory
routes.”
Moose, Gillham said, possibly
are on the increase, “the one
bright spot” in Alaska. With moose
hunting on the peninsula closed
below Illiamna Lake, the animals
have spread 250 miles westward.
Forest fires and burnings along
the Alaska railroad have increased
the growth of small plants upon
which moose feed, he explained.
“Wolves and coyotes are mak
ing tremendous inroads on game,”
Gillham added.
“The waterfowl that 2.000,000
American buy federal licenses to
hunt are being taken by these
predators night and day.
“The production of waterfowl is
simple—send us more ducks and
geese back to our nesting grounds,
and give us money to protect them
from predators and illegal hunt
ing.
“I cannot see our law-makers !
letting the greatest wild life area
in the United States slip because
of the little added money involv
ed to administer it.”
Gillham said Alaska has only
eight men for game law enforce
ment over 590,000 square miles,
an area one-fifth as large as the
United States. The newest patrol
vehicle is six years old, and patrol
boats are 12 to 14 years old.
“We. have planes and wonderful
bush pilots, but little money to
keep them in the air,” wrote Gill
ham.
“Our appropriations for a year
would be exhausted in one
month’s time were we to assign
these craft to normal patrol duty
“Thank God I am not dependent
upon this job for a living. I oper
ate at a loss, as does most of our
force, as far as our income is con
cerned.
“We cannot compete on our
fixed salaries with $600-a-month
bartenders, longshoremen who
work when they please, and with
an economic Territorial expansion
that looks like the gold rush
days.’’
