Growing Controls
Discussed at
Kiwanis Meet
“When the second man appear
ed on earth the rights of the first
man 'were cut in half,” Dr. I. J
Montgomery, director of the Al
aska Merit System, told the Ki
wanis club at a regular luncheon
meeting at the Baranof Hotel this
noon.
He went on to explain that due
to th6 complexities of civilization
today, certain restrictions on per
sonal freedom are needed. He
named some of the common reg
ulations governing pure food ar.d
durgs, traffic, price and rent con
trols, building permits and codes,
sanitation and safety laws, and
the selective service system.
"Some controls are effected
through tax and license meas
ures. But how do all these reg
ulations come into existence?”
Montgomery asked. He said he
thought that most of them were
created by pressure groups and
“do-gooders" — some guided and
some misguided.
Since regulations of some kind
are necessary Montgomery said “we
need them brought about by in
telligent legislation and enforced
by competent personnel chosen on
the basis of merit instead of pull.”
Four new members were ini
ated by Stanley Baskin, assistant
district attorney. They were: Jos
eph Morgan, district manager of
the Bureau of Reclamation; Dick
Lucason, of Pacific Northern Air
lines' traffic office; the Rev. James
Bolton, Baptist Church pastor;
and John Greeny, Lutheran mini
ster.
Art Skinner was appointed to
meet with the Juneau City
Council police committee re
garding the growing traffic and
parking problems in the city.
Army and Marines
Will Draif 41,000
Men in October
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1—The
Defense Department today called
for the drafting of 41,000 men in
October—5,000 for the Marine Corps
and 36,000 for the Army.
The total for the month is an in
crease of 6,820'over that previously
asked for September, when the
Army is to get 28,000 and the Ma
rines 6,180.
The Marine Corps resorted to
the draft in August for the first
time since the start of ths Korean
campaign.
Under the call, October will be
the third month of drafting for
the Marines.
In the August-Octobcr period the
Marines expect to draft 18,180 men
in addition to obtaining recruits
through a continuing volunteer pro
gram.
The October call for 41,000 is
the highest monthly draft quota
since March when 80,000 men were
requested, all for the Army.
Drafting dropped to a low for the
Korean war period in July when
only 15,000 men were inducted by
the Army.
Iron Curtain Parts
As Russ Newspaper
Prints Appeal
LONDON, Aug. 1, —(£)—Russia
opened the Iron Curtain a crack
today to let the Communist faith
ful read a “Let's Be Friends” ap
peal from British Foreign Secre
tary Herbert Morrison.
The party newspaper, Pravda,
published the Morrison statement
and, in the same issue, lashed
back with a bitter reply denoun
cing all he said as lies or distor
lions.
The unprecedented east-west
exchange resulted from a chal
lenge by Morrison last June dar
ing Pravda to print his appeal.
Pravda agreed, provided the Brit
ish press would give equal prom
inence to its reply. Six London
newspapers printed the full text
of the exchange today.
Said Morrison:
“We are a peaceful people who
want to feel secure” but can’t
while Russia maintains “vast
armed forces and military estab
lishments.”
Why not, he asked, topple the
barriers set up by Russia across
Europe and allow a free exchange
of news, broadcasts and even
tourists?
Oh, no, Pravda answered, the
British and Americans are war
mongers who threaten the Sov
iet Union and we cannot allow
freedom to “thieves, subversive
agents, terrorists and assassins."

New Atom Bomb
Test Sites
Kept Secret
WASHINGTON. Aug. 1, — '*>—
The United States is planning
'more tests of the atomic bomb,
chairman Gordon Dean of the At
omic Energy Commission said to
day.
Dean declined to tell a news
conference, however, whether the
tests would be at already announ
ced proving grounds or at some
other place. There has been spec
ulation that a new proving ground
may be established in the Aleu
tian Islands off Alaska.
In saying that the United States
is planning further tests of its
own atomic weapons, Dean said
■We are not quite ready to give
you the test sites and dates."
Dean said the commission at
one time or another had thought
of test sites “in practically every
part of the globe." He did not
amplify that statement. Asked
why' ‘ the same proving grounds
cannot be used over and over
again, Dean said that one of the
reasons was the "heavy logistics
involved in faraway tests such as
those at Eniwetok.
He added: “It depends on what
you want to test.”
