Propose Advisory
Committee For
Alaska Problems
SEATTLE, (/P) — Creation of a
permanent 12-member advisory
committee to work on joint Alaska
(and Washington state problems
has been proposed by Rep. Henry
M. Jackson »D.-Wash.> and Alaska
Delegate E. L. Bartlett.
The two members of Congress
, told the Seattle chamber of com
merce Alaska committee Monday
that such a committee would solve
many problems that previously
had been “thrashed out” in Con
gressional debate.
Under their plan, the commit
tee would consist of representa
tives of labor, indus ry, and the
governments of the Territory and
State.
“The major problems facing
Alaska today are transportation
development of resources and de
fense,” Jackson said. “Because i
Seattle and Washington are the
gateway to Alaska, the solution of
those problems is important to this
state.”
Bartlett, here to confer with the
Everett Congressman, said devel
opment problems now confronting
the Territory center on fishing
pulp manufacture, power and min
ing.
Both said their proposed com
mittee would enable Alaska and
Washington to go before Congress
with unified programs and obtain i
speedier action on such matters as
pulp expansion and Indian affairs.!
Jackson is a member of the
House appropriations committ e e
and of the interior department
sub-committee which controls
Alaska funds.

Truman’s Anli
Communist Policy
MIDDLETON, (A*) — At orney
General Tom Clark says there are
74,000 “card-carrying commun
ists” in the United States—52 per
cent of them in New York State
and California.
He asked a Democratic rally
Monday night what Governors
Thomas E. DeWey and Earl War
ren have “done about communism
in their own sta es.”
Clark answered that the Repub
'ican standard bearers have done
‘nothing but talk” about it.
He said 30,000 communists “are
walking the streets in New York
State,” and that “New York State
s No. 1 and California is No. 2 in
communist population.”
Clark declared he had urged
that Dewey and other RepublicaTi
leaders name any communists on
the federal payroll, and they had
not done so.
The attorney general praised
President Truman’s program for
loyalty in government service.
