Gov. of Mass. Denounces
JFK Administration As
‘Waste & Squander Mania*
YAKIMA. Wn. P Gov. John
Volpe of Mnssaehusettes de
nounced the “waste and squander
mania" of the Kennedy adminis
tration Saturday in a keynote ad
dress to the Republican State Con
vention here.
He called upon the conservative
element of the Republican party
to direct their activities “against
the federal spending which balloons
the national debt and results in our
states and municipalities and indi
viduals spending more than they
can afford."
Volpe was the lone Republican
elected to constitutional w e in
President KennedW home state of
Massachusetts in 1960.
"We must warn our people that
the consequences of abdication to
the national administration are —
growth in bureaucracy, growth in
federal controls, growth in federal
tax burdens, growth in federal de
ficit spending, growth in federal
planned inflation."
Hr said the people who were
"stampeded to the Washington
Nt w Fronti* rsmen are changing
their minds when they contem
plate the ideas, the staggering cost
financed by deficit mending. *he
guaranteed confusion, the floosing
of implusive schemes which have
been our portion for almost two
years.”
The Massachusetts governor said
the Republican image should be
more than that of a watchdog of
the public purse. He said it should
be the "flaming champion of
righteousness and the enemy of
evil anywhere on earth."

"This 100 ner cent score exceeds
by a considerable margin the per

any given group of students.

noteworthy because they achieved
" wkhout the usual three months
art-course period of review in high
school mathematics and physics
which normally is required of new
students.
"Finally, despite the fact that
they came from small and often

difficult studies."

WASHINGTON .•? Time, or,
i S lack of it, seems to be the only
i i major problem farina a bill do- |
- ! signed to help develop about 20,- i
| 000 acres of farm land in Alaska j
■ | in the next 10 years.
•; The bill would authorize a $1.-1
j 250,000 program of grants to help
_ , farmers put land into production.
. I It has the full support of the state
. j congressional delegation which is
I pushing for action at this session
> ; of Congress,
No opposition to the proposal was
■ voiced at agr iculture subcommittee
hearings in the House and Senate
and it has the endorsement of the
| administration.
i However, the legislative load is
1 piling up on Congress and the
j usual pressure for adjournment is
increasing, especially sin tv this is
an election year and the legislators
want to hit the campaign trail.
Under the rules, bills not acted
upon by the end of a Congress
die and further consideration would
require a completely new start
at the next session — introduction,
hearings and action by the two
chambers.
To make the grade before the
J STth Congress ends, the Alaska
! farm bills must get favorable ac
tion from the agriculture subcom
mittee. their parent full commit
i tees and the House and Senate.
! The delegation was able to ar
: range special hearings on the bills
j before subcommittees and the three
i members are determined to keep
i pushing for action before the ad
journment deadlines.
The measures were introduced
bv Sens. E. L. Bartlett and Ernest
Gruening. and Rep. Ralph Rivers.
Bartlett summed up the delega
tion's position by saying that al
though the program is a relatively
modest one, it is very important j
: to the state's economy and "ranks
| high on the priority list of bills for |
i passage at this session.”
Bellz' Homestead . . .
When William E. Reitz, President |
of the first Alaska State Senate. !
was fatally stricken by a brain tu- j
| mnr. he had not completed work j
! necessary to gain title to a home
stead near Unalakleet.
The Senate has passed a bill
that would authorize the Secretary
of the Interior to convey the home
stead to Mrs. Beltz despite the fact
that lewd requirements had not
been met at the time of her hus
band’s death in November of lflfiO.
| Sen. Omening, when he intro
[ dueed the bill, described Beltz —
! an Eskimo from lowly origins—
j as “a great and worthy son of
j America.”
“Enactment of this measure will
I compenstate, in some degree, for
his contributions to Alaska and to
the nation,” Grucning added.
Rep. Rivers said he will seek
speedy action on the bill by the
House Interior Committee of
which he is a member.
“He was a wonderful man who
made important contributions to
Alaska in many ways,” said Rivers
of Beltz, who was elected unani
mously to head the Alaska Senate
when the first State Legislature
met in 1959.

The arrests were announced yes

The men were charged with con

year period from 1950 thru 1959
when more than 400 kilograms
about 6,000 pounds — of pure
heroin were smuggled into the
United ' States and distributed
throughout the country.
The value of the heroin in its
pure state is approximately $10

the amount tenfold. Morgenthau

legislative pressures increase,
pending matters of impor
tance to Alaska will require
my constant attention.
With this as my reason for being away from the home front
during most of the Primary Election campaign, I will warmly
apprecite your vote w’hen you visit the polls on Primary
Election Day, August 14th. With kindest regard, and best
wishes, I am
Sincerely yours,
