Anti-Trust Cases
Will Carry
m
Heavy Penalties
CHICAGO, </P)—U.S. attorney
general Tom Clark, saying there
are “some groups among us who
are trying to restrict or monopo
lize trade,” declared today the de
partment of justice will insist on
both jail sentences and heavy fines
in anti-trust cases in the future.
Addressing the fraternal order
of Eagles’ annual convention,
Clark asserted, “we must pass on
to the youth of the nation the
priceless gift of free enterprise
under our democratic system.”
“Certain ideologies,” he said,
“advance strange theories that
claim the state should create op
portunity, initiative and skill
by the order of some bureaucrat.
“The anti-trust laws carry a
jail sentence of one year besides
heavy fines and from now on we
shall insist on both. The present
tendency must be cured. We shall
use these laws to protect America
from those who are so greedy that
they would destroy our system it
self.”

| Settlement Of Land
Along Highway To
Start October 1
WASHINGTON. iSP) — Settle
ment on newly-opened land along
the Alaska Highway in Alaska
may begin Oct. 1, the bureau of
land management said today. *
Secretary of the interior King
last week approved an order re
moving military restrictions from
2.750.000 acres along the route
withdrawn from the public do
main early in the war for con
struction of the highway.
However, the bureau explained,
a public land order does not be
come effective until nine weeks af
ter its approval and sufficient pub
lic notice.
The land lies along 338 miles of
the highway within Alaska. It in
cludes large tracks of unsurveyed
areas, and about 12,000 acres in 12
localities set aside for surveys as
small tracts for veterans of World
War II.
The land management bureau
added this warning:
1. Little if any of the acreage is
suitable for agricultural home
stead use. The soil is too thin, the
ground too wet, the frost too fre
quent, the altitude too great.
2. The Canadian government re
quires a travel permit-obtainable
only by application in person—
from all persons traveling over the
Canadian section of the highway.
3. No government funds or fa
cilities are available for private
travel, transportation of household
effects or other equipment.
4. No general description list of |
the areas has been prepared. The j
land cannot be acquired by mail
order, sight unseen. Not only must
prospective settlers personally ex-1
amine the land they intend to oc- j
cupy, but they must make “suffi- j
cient arrangements” for financing,!
means of livelihood and similar'
important details.

Public Hearings
On Shungnak Land
Secretary of the Interior, J. A.
Krug, announced today that public
hearings will be held in Alaska to
determine whether certain lands
in the vicinity of Shungnak should
be reserved for exclusive native
use. Assistant Secretary William
E. Warne will conduct the hear
ing. He will be assisted by Harry
M. Edelstein, assistant solicitor of
the department. The hearings will
open at Nome on August 16, at
2:00 p.m. and at the village of
Shungnak at 10:00 a.m. on August
18.
Notice of the hearings, pub
lished in the Federal Register on
August 5, states that “all interest
ed persons may attend at such
times and places and present their
views to the hearings officer, and
may file any written statements or
documents with such officer or
with the department within sixty
days from the date of this notice.’
The hearing conforms to the
policy of Secretary Krug to make
no withdrawals of public lands
except after public hearings and
an opportunity has been given for
all interested persons to be heard.
The area proposed to be reserv
ed is northeast of Nome, along the
Kobuk River which empties into
Kotzebue Sound. Principally used
as a hunting area, the land covers
approximately 2,300 square miles,
entirely made up of tundra and
marsh.
Mushrooms contain 90 per cent
water.
