Varied Opinions
()n Governor's
Message
(By James Hutcheson)
! JUNEAU (iP)—Response by Ter
ritorial legislators to Governor
Gruening’s message varied from
exuberant Democratic enthusiasm
j to sharp criticism by conservative
Senate Republicans.
Middle-of-the-road Republicans
generally received it well, al
though some questioned the size
of the program suggested.
Sen. Steve McCutcheon and
Rep. Clarence Keating, Anchorage
Democrats, lauded it as ‘‘the best
message he eyer delivered."
| Sen. William Munz of Nome,
member of the Republican minor
j ity which consistently has opposed
the Governor’s proposals, describ
ed it as a “fantastic document,
outlining a program of expansion
which, aside from being unreason
able, will not only discourage any
new enterprise but drive out old
ones.”
House Speaker Stanley McCut
cheon said the Governor’s “care
ful survey of needs was extremely
helpful. I’m sure his program will j
meet with enthusiastic response
in the House.”
Sen. Charles Jones of Nome, an
other conservative Republican,,
commented that the speech was j
“comprehensive, very elaborate,!
quite expensive, and lacking in
definite particulars on who will
pay for it, which we know will be
us.”
Senate President Gunnard Enge- 1
breth: “It was splendid and car
ried much stronger punch than his
special session message.” Enge
breth was pleased by the invita
tion of legislators .to look into per- |
formances of the administrative'
>ffices.

| Northern Lights
Go Visiting South
j SAN JOSE. Calif. (A*)—The cold
I brilliance of the northei n lights,
making a spectaculai display in
i the Pacific Northwest Monday
night, were also observed as far
south as San Jose.
An astronomer at Lick Observ
atory near here termed it Qu.te a
-emarkable display.” with colored
streamers rising 20 degrees above
the horizon. They brightened
gradually into brilliant reds and
pale greens, then faded from sight.
The observatory tried recording
the scene on color film.
In Santa Rosa, 75 miles to the
north, residents telephoned the of
fices of the Press Democrat to ask
the cause of the flaming skies.
SEATTLE — Northern Lights
were exceptionally bright and col
orful over Seattle last night. Dur
ing the past twenty-four hours
considerable difficulty has been
experienced to maintain radio
telegraph and radio phone com
munications between Seattle and
points in Alaska due to atmos
pheric conditions.
Colonel Andrews, commanding
officer of Alaska Communication
system announces that although
the radio circuits have been and
will be interrupted at times by
conditions beyond the control of
the system, the ACS system, also
has cable and landline facilities to
the main cities and towns of Alas
ka and long distance telephone
and telegrams will not be delayed.
When circuits are interrupted by
storm damage and other sources,
ACS has alternate routes and re
lay stations for getting the mes
sages through.
