Senate Refuses to
Hear Education
Administrative Bill
JUNEAU UP) — An attempt to
take a bill which would make the
Board of Education the adminis
trative and fiscal head of the Ed
ucation Department from the Ju
diciary Committee was turned
down by the Senate today, 12-8.
Sen. B. J. Logan, a Cordova
Democrat, joined the seven Re
publican members of the Senate
in voting to lift the bill from the
Judiciary Committee and send it
to the Rules Committee for as
signment on the calendar.
Voting, in effect, to leave the
bill in Judiciary were a solid
lineup of 12 Democrats.
Sen. Howard Pollock made the
motion to take the bill from Ju
diciary. He said that committee
had had the bill under study for
more than a week, and the An
chorage Republican said he felt
that was enough time.
Chairman R. J. McNealy of the
Judciary Committee said if Pol
lock’s motion were approved, it
would destroy the legislature’s
committee system of operation.
Sen. Lester Bronson said he be
lieved that if “This were not a
politically driven bill, I am sure
it would be brought out immedi
ately.”
Sen. Brad Phillips noted that
1962 is an election year and he
said he wondered if the real dan
ger, in the minds of some sen
ators, was that they might have
to vote on the bill in the open.
Sen. A1 Owen said “We should
recognize that this is not a spon
taneous action, it is a well-plan
ned maneuver by a well-organ
ized political group and a well
heeled lobby.”
Sen. W.O. Smith said that mos
of the communications he has re
ceived on the measure have com
from “vested interests, the pro
fessional educators."
Closing the debate before the
vote on his motion, Pollock said
‘We cannot possibly be talking
about the constitutionality of this
bill when Section 26, Article HI
of the Constitution authorizes this
very type of board.
“The intent here is to kill the
bill by non-action.”

Atty. Gen. Kennedy
Predicts Germany
Will Be Reunited
BONN, Germany Uh — Robert
F. Kennedy predicted that di
vided Germany eventually will be
reunited but conceded the Unit
ed States “has no magic formula”
to bring this about.
The visiting Attorney General
indicated he thinks a change in
the Soviet position might do it.
Emerging from a conference with
Chancellor Konrad Adenauer
shortly after his arrival from Ber
lin, he told a news conference:
“The Soviets have consistently
opposed reunification but things
can change. There has been a tre
mendous upheaval in the Soviet
Union in the last 10 years and
many changes may take place
in the years to come.”
Kennedy also had voiced opti
mism at the airport on his ar
rival, predicting liberty and free
dom will prevail over Com
munism.
After an airport welcome, Ken
nedy met with Adenauer for
what was supposed to be a one
hour conference. It lasted nearly
two hours.
Kennedy had taken one last
look at the Communist wall be
fore leaving Berlin and had his
picture taken by East German
police.
Kennedy, his wife, and younger
brother, Edward, rode into the
capital from the airport past
school children waving German!
and American flags and signs call
ing for German reunification.
Overhead flew a plane trailing a
streamer saying: “All Germany
free.”
Before leaving Berlin the At
torney General stopped at check
t point Charlie where he confronted
. armed East German policemen.
» The policemen grinned sheepishly
. and took his picture.

Wants Gov. Egan to
Veto Crab Processing Bill
KETCHIKAN — James
Pinkerton, president of Ketchikan
Cold Storage Co., said today he
will request Gov. Egan to veto
the bill which was passed by the
Senate requiring Alaska preli
minary processing of crab.
He indicated he thought the
bill was unconstitutional.
Pinkerton also said he doubted
| the state would require an oil
company to build a refinery to
process petroleum before moving
it from Alaska or a mining firm
to build a smelter.
Pinkerton, who testified against
the action earlier, said he was sur
prised then that the Senate passed
the measure.
“1 thought we were trying to
create a good business climate
in Alaska,” he said. “This sort of
thing is not the answer to the
problem of developing Alaska.”
THAT'S HOW IT STARTED
Frank Couch has received a
letter from Portland, Ore., telling
of a story circulated there that
another gold strike is on at Nome
and that over 3,000 people have
already stampeded here, to mine
for gold in the offshore tidelands.
That’s how it all started back
in 1900!

Long-Suffering Man
Finally Turns On
His “Best Friend”
LONDON UPi — After four years
of faithful friendship thrust on
him by a liquid-eyed, black mon
grel dog, John Shaw has had
enough.
The trouble is, he told Win
bleden Magistrates Court Friday,
the dog isn’t his.
“I’m fed up with is maniacal
affection,” said Shaw, 59, a train
engineer.
The dog, a 9-year-old cross
bred Labrador named Timothy,
first became interested in Shaw’s
mongrel female. But it soon trans
ferred its affections to Shaw.
“Then everywhere I went,
Timothy went,” Shaw said. “Every
time I came out of the house, he
was there. Everywhere I turned,
there he was- waiting for me.”
The dog left his own home a
mile away and hung around out
side Shaw’s house. At night it
would howl under his window.
“He followed me to work,”
Shaw complained. “He jumps in
to the locomotive with me. I’ve
even missed work several times
because of him.”
“You know, I couldn’t even
go for a drink. As soon as he
realized where I’d gone, Timothy
would be sitting outside the bar
waiting for me and howling.”
It was jealousy that finally
wrote finis to the friendship.
One day another dog followed
Shaw. Timothy got annoyed and
attacked the interloper. In the
scuffle Shaw was knocked over
and Timothy accidentally bit his
fingers.
“I know he didn’t mean it,”
said Shaw. “He thinks far too
much of me.”
Shaw appealed to the magi
strate, to order Timothy’s owners
to keep the dog under control.
The magistrate granted his re
quest.
Lily Reeve, the mongrel’s own
er said, “Timothy is just a senti
mental old fool really. He is a
perfectly normal and natural
dog—just too friendly, that*s all.
It’s going to be difficult, though.
He’s frequently dug tunnels under
our fences to get out. We may
have to give him tranquilizers.”
