FREE GOLD
TO FIGHT
INFLATION
Mining Men Awaiting Fed
eral Policy Toward Min
ing Under Ad, Bradley
“Gold mining men believe that
the best weapon against runaway
inflation is return to the gold stan
dard,” Phil Bradley Jr., told a Ju
neau Chamber of Commerce meet
ing this noon at the Baranof Hotel.
'For years mining men have
tried to free gold and have it placed
on the markets of the world where
it would find its true level and give
this country a stable currency,”
he said. He stated that Canada had
rtcent’y removed controls on cur
rency and have gone back to gain
ing public confidence by foresigh*
instead of money-management.
Statistics
Bradley gave sori)e interesting ap
proximate statistics on the Alaska
Juneau mine. It has produced $81,
COO.OOO worth of gold, 88,500,000
tens cf ore, and paid out $34,000,000
in wages. He pointed out that every
dollar paid in wages in a mining
community created from $7 to $9
in business for that community. On
that basis the A-J mine created
$200,000,000 in business for Ju
neau during the period of its op
eration. He pointed out that this
could not return until the price
of geld goes up to its true level.
"When gold was raised to $35 an
ounce in 1934 it merely restored
gold mining to its position ir. 1913,”
he said. “A check and comparison
of percentage of profit at the
Treadwell mine in 1912 and 1934
showed that there was no differ
ence.”
INFLATION DISHONEST
“Inflation hurts everyone. It is
dishonest. In 1913 the gold dollar
was worth 100 cents; in 1934 it
was worth 59 cents; in 1939 had
dropped to 50 cents; in 1940 it was
down to 39 cents and today the
1913 gold dollar is only worth 29
cents. Gold cannot be mined on
thjit basis. In order to make a gold
dollar worth a dollar today the

LOS ANGELES — Watching the
candidates—These are days so many
claims are made by candidates that
it’s hard for the average voter to
sift the true facts before election
time.
As a result, voting in a hurry
and repenting at leisure sometimes
saddles unfortunate Congressmen
on the nation.
As a guide to voters, therefore,
this column will attept to point
out some of the phony statements
issued by candidates.
Take for instance. Jack Hardy,
GOP candidate for Congress in
Helen Gahagan Douglas’s old dis
trict in Los Angeles. His campaign
literature features pictures of him
self and wife with his three child
ren. The picture even names the
children "Tertie, Margaret and
Charlies” and quotes them saying:
"We live with Jack (Hardy and
know what kind of a person he is
at home. We know he is a profes
sional man, not a professional poli
tician.”
The three Hardy children, whom
the GOP candidate thus features
in his literature look to be aroilnd
the ages of 12 to 14. However, the
interesting thing is that candidate
Hardy married his wife only last
May and Tertie, Margaret and
Charlie are not his children. They
are the children of his present
wife, Georgia Sibley, by a former
marriage.
Furthermore, the only child of his
own which candidate Hardy ever
had was the daughter of actress
Fay Helm, who divorced him five
years ago. At that time, Hardy re
linguished all rights to custody of
his baby, including even the right
of visitation It was agreed how
ever, that he would contribute $35
a month to the baDy s support.
However, even this mere pittance
was too much. He defaulted on
payments to the tune of $800 and,

FINANCE CAMPAIGN
FOR BOY SCOUTS IS
STARTED HERE
Three Boy Scouts from Troop 23
; in an impressive but short ceremony
I at the kick-off breakfast this morn
| ing started the annual week long
scout finance campaign.
The scouts were in charge of Jerry
| Wade with Gary Hedges reciting
the Boy Scout law and Jack Rhode
giving the scout law. Allen Shattuck,
campaign chairman, introduced the
] speakers who gave short instruc
tional pep talks to the teams and
special workers present. Not pre
i viously mentioned as a special
I worker is Ralph Browne who
I handles the campaign for the ter
] ritorial and federal employees.
Charles Burdick noted that the
! Boy Scout enrollment for the ter
ritory showed an increase of 659
scouts during the two year period
from October 1948 to the present,
i There are 1,649 Boy Scouts now re
j gistered in the three divisions of
1 scouting, Cubs, Boy Scouts and Ex
■ -jlorers.
Opening remarks by Shattuck in
cluded the fact that the scouting
j program is one of the social niove
j ments of all times that will be re
! corded. “Only now can work be done
] for boys,” said Dr. Joseph Rude,
"before they grow out of the period
| in life when they need it most."
Subscriptions are to be turned
j in tomorrow afternoon between 4:30
and 5:30 o’clock in the Gold Room
! of the Baranof with the carry-overs
| to be turned in to the members of

FLORIDA TOWN
CHALLENGING
JUNEAU SKISH
A Juneau skish club has been
j challenged to a telegraphic match
! by the junior members of the St.
: Augustine, Florida Skish team.
I There's just one catch in the whole
performance. Skish has not been
introduced in Juneau.
Skish , is an accuracy castihg
game that is almost as much fun
as skeet and fishing—that is, for
fishermen at least.
This new sport has become popu
lar throughout the states and is
indulged in by persons from six to
sixty and many handicapped per
sons. Some fans of the game have
gone on to bec/une trick-shot
champs.
The St. Augustine juniors are rat
! ed the No. 2 team m the United
States and as far as Juneau com
petition is concerned it appears
that they will remain that way.
However ii anyone in this area is
interested in launching the sport
here, he can contact Johnny Qul
ico at the Juneau-Young Hardware

BRUST TRANSFERRED

A.N.S. AREA OFFICE
The transfer of Reinholt Brust,
assistant area director of the Alaska
Native Service, to the same posi

Brust went to the ANS from the!
Shawnee Agency in Oklahoma in
; January, 194J, as chief clerk. Dur
! ing the past nine years he ad
vanced in the agency and on Decem
I ber 11, 1949, was named to the posi
! tion of assistant area director.
"Brust’s transfer will be a great
! loss to the Alaska area office but
1 the transfer is at his request. In
| view of his faithful service to the
| agency, we could do nothing else
but approve it. Brust will be very
difficult to replace,” said Wade.

BUILDING
CONTROLS
Ban on New Structures for
Amusement, Recea
tion, Entertainment
WASHINGTON, Oct. 26 — M —
The National Production Authority
today banned the building of any
new structures for "amusement, rec
reational or entertainment pur
poses.”
The order, effective at midnight
tonight, was issued to conserve ma
terials for armaments.
Covered by the ban are theaters
of all kinds, amusement parks, race
tracks, golf courses, night clubs,
skating rinks and summer camps.
In all, there are 44 forbidden types
of structures.
The NPA Administrator, William
H. Harrison said in a statement
accompanying his action that the
barred construction “is of a type
which does not further the defense
effort, either directly or indirectly,
and does not increase the nation’s
productive capacity.”
Risks Arc Taken
Persons who start other buildings
which do not further the defense
drive—even though not on the pro
hibited list—run the risk of being
barred from completion of the
building, Harrison said.
Such construction begun after
midnight may be halted "even
though its commencement at the
present time is not forbidden by
this order,” the production chief
specified.
The order applies to federal, state
and city recreational projects as
well as private buildings.
More Defense Yokes
The NPA simultaneously issued
two more orders settling the de
fense yoke more firmly on ’the
economy:
1. The steel industry was directed
to furnish steel for the production
of at least 10,000 freight cars a
month. This will take upwards of
300,000 tons monthly from the civil
ian supply.
2. Other allocation programs of
the same type were made possible
by an NPA amendment to its steel
distribution order. This will permit
allocations of steel, similar to the
freight car plan, for steel deliveries
to the petroleum and mining in
dustries, farm machinery makers,
and other defense-supporting in
dustries.

BARTLETT
GIVES OUT
HIS VIEWS
Talks About Statehood,
Democracy-Labor Con
vention Is in Session
KETCHIKAN, Alaska, Oct. 26—
—(jfl—Congressional Delegate E. L.
Bartlett declared before the Ter
ritorial Federation of Labor yes
terday that Alaska's Democratic
Party is not “going conservative."
He said it would not desert its
“historic liberality,” as indicated
by some party leaders after the re
cent territorial election.
Bartlett asserted efforts of At
torney James E. Curry of Wash
ington, D. C., on behalf of Indian
groups, to turn labor against the
statehood bill because the bill
freezes reservations at the present
status, ought to fail.
He said the bill has a clause
guaranteeing all Federal and In
dian lands and fishing grounds. He
added that the issue is not import
ant because Secretary of Interior
Chapman had declared publicly he
would not establish any more re
servations in Alaska without a full
review and public hearings.
AFL Purposes
Harry O’Reilly of Washington, or
ganization director for the Ameri
can Federation of Labor, told the
convention the AFL has no right j
or left wings. He said it has only
■'a single purpose to improve the j
social and economic lot of the \
working people through voluntary
association for that purpose.”
Factional Fight
A factional fight was reported
to be brewing behind the scenes
between the Dave Beck-led Team
sters’ Union and the operating en
gineers. The teamsters tried two
years ago to gain several import
ant posts in the Territorial Fed
eration. but failed. The operating
engineers are strong in Alaska,
where they handle heavy equip
ment.
Rank-and-File Control
Ed Weston, President of the
Washington State Federation of
Labor, told the convention earlier
in the week that Dave Beck, using
one-man control in his union, has
kept its members out of the State
Federation. He said his own Boiler
maker’s Union and the State Fed
eration insist on rank-and-file con
trol.
The convention voted to continue
publishing the monthly Alaska Fed
erationist after Anchorage Electri
cians’ Union had tried to kill the
news organ.
The convention went on record
by resolution for Alaska rent con
trol and broader unemployment
benefits.

BONDING COMPANIES
SUE BANK, RECOVERY
ON OLSON'S CHECKS
SEATTLE, Oct. 26—UPI—Legal ac
tions were filed Wednesday by two
surety bonding companies against
Seattle-First National Bank to re
cover money paid them to the Ter
ritory of Aiaska to make good un
lawful checks written by Oscar G.
Olson, former Treasurer of the Ter
ritory.
American Surety Company of
New York asks *9,136.81 plus in
terest for unlawful checks Olson
wrote between April 1, 1939, and
March 30, 1947 during the period
the company carried Olson’s bond.
General Casualty Company of
America asks $1,129.64 for unlaw
ful checks written by Olson between
April 1, 1949, and May 7, 1949, when
General Casualty guaranteed his
bond.
Both companies claim that Seat
tle-First National Bank, as depos
itory for funds of the Territory
of Alaska, was negligent in honor
ing the checks.
Olson was sentenced to 10 years
each on two counts of embezzle
ment last January, the terms to
run concurrently.
FRONTIER
OF TIBET
CROSSED
(By Associated Press)
In Berlin, a Soviet controlled
newspaper announced that Chinese
Communist forces have crossed
Tibet’s frontier to “liberate” the
people of the little mountain na
tion.
The first assertion that Red Chi
nese actually had entered Tibet
came from Taegliche Rundschau,
which said:
“In the early morning hours of
Tuesday, a formation of the Chi
nese People’s Army crossed the Ti
betan frontier.” The advancing force
was identifed as the Second Chi
nese field army.
This followed an announcement
by the Peiping radio yesterday that
Red China’s troops had been ordered
to march on Tibet.
The Communist Chinese have
been hinting and threatening an in
vasion of Tibet for months. In
Moscow, the Communist newspaper
Pravda said the Chinese Second
Field Army has been ordered into
action. It said the "liberation” army
would bring freedom, peace and
democracy to the 3,000,000 inhabit
ants of that remote region. The
Communists charge Tibet is domi
nated by Britain and the United
States.
COMMANDER FOR
NO. ATLANTIC PACT
TO BE NAMED SOON
(By Associated Press)
A key official—who has asked
that he not be named—is predicting
that the North Atlantic military
men will recommend that an Ameri
can be appointed supreme com
mander—and soon.
General Dwight Eisenhower often
has been rumored to be in line for
this critical job. And the General
himself has added to the specula
tion by saying that he’s coming to
Washington in the next few days
to talk with officals in the Defense
Department.
It is thought that either General
Eisenhower or General Omar Brad
ley would be welcomed as the top
man by all concerned in the 12
nation alliance.

CONGRESS
CALL BACK
PROBABLE
Truman to Make Decision
Soon-Many Topics Dis
cussed with Newsmen
By D. HAROLD OLIVER
WASHINGTON, Oct. 26 — UP) —
President Truman may call Con
gress back before Its scheduled re
turn Nov. 27, but he said today he
has not yet reached a decision.
He said if the call is made it
would be to give Congress a little
more working time on a whole list
of things, including an excess profits
tax, rent control extension, and
statehood for Alaska and Hawaii.
Mr. Truman discussed the possi
bility in a White House news con
ference that covered a wide range
of topics.
The new 82nd Congress does not
meet until Jan. 3, nearly two months
after the Nov. 7 elections.
Mr. Truman said he has taken up
the matter of recalling Congress
with Vice President Barkley, but
would talk it over with other party
leaders before making a decison. He
said he would announce his decision
when he reaches it, whether it is
before or after the elections.
Answers Questions
Responding to other questions,
Mr. Truman said:
1— He does not expect any trouble
in Western Europe this winter. A
reporter had remarked that some
people in Holland Were anticipating
war in a few months.
2— He knows of but one atomic ex
plosion ever having occurred in
Soviet Russia. Gordon Dean of the
Atomic Energy Commission had
been asked at a press conference
Tuesday whether he knew of any
more atomic explosions in Russia
and he replied that “the President
hasn’t seen fit to make any more
announcements" beyond the one he
made last year.
Drop Homo order
3— That Gen. Douglas MacArthur
knew in advance of this country’s
plan to drop the atomic bomb on |
Japan. A newsman had said that j
writer John Gunther had reported j
otherwise. The President said that!
was not true. He added he gave the |
order to MacArthur and the Gen- !
eral issued the order to drop the
bomb.
4— He is seriously considering
making one or two campaign
speeches but said he probably will
not leave Washington for it. He said
National Democratic Chairman Wil
liam Boyle had urged him to make
several speeches before the election,
but that he had not made up his i
mind.
Probably No Vacation
Mr. Truman said he did not be
lieve he could take a brief vacation
in Key West, Fla., next month be
cause he will be too busy.
Asked to comment on the state- 1
ment last night by Harold E. Stas- I
sen that the President will favor ad- j
mitting Red China to the United
Nations after the November elec
tions, the President said he won
dered where Stassen got his infor
mation.
Smiling, he added Stassen prob
ably got it from Chairman Guy
Gabrielson of the Republican Na
tional Committee, not from me.
Korean Border Occupation
He said it was his understanding
that Korean Republic forces would
occupy the entire border between
North Korea and Manchuria, with
no American troops participating
in this function.
Mr. Truman was asked to release
the report on the investigation of
the Philippine situation made by
Daniel W. Bell. He replied that the
U.S. is trying to work out an ap
proach to implement that report,
but that it could not be done in
the newspapers.
The President said nothing has
come to his attention about a re
ported contemplated visit to the
United States by President elect
Vargas of Brazil.
Denying reports that the admin
istration has given up the idea of
dispersing government buildings In
the Washington area, he said this
is a logical and practical thing and
should be done.

Carpenter
Accused as
Dynamiter
Wilmington, Ohio, Man
Admits Wrecking Voice
of America Radio
EL PASO, Tex., Oct. 26—(AT—An
Ohio carpenter was accused today
of the Sept. 17 dynamiting of a
Voice of America radio transmitter
at Mason, O.
D. K. Brown, In charge of the Fed
eral Bureau of Investigation office
here, said Herman Floyd Klnner,
38, of Wilmington, O., admitted he
“did the Job.”
He said Kinner also admitted
opening a switch Oct. 1 on the main
line tracks of the Pennsylvania
Railroad near Wllberforce, O. No
damage resulted because the open
switch was found before a train
was passed.
Kinner was formally charged In
both cases.
Agent Brown supplied details to
newsmen here after FBI Chief J.
Edgar Hoover first announced the
arrest In Washington.
Kinner was taken Into custody in
El Paso last night two hours after
hitchhiking from Houston, Tex.,
Brown said. He declined to say
where the arrest was made.
Brown described Kinner as a
mental case and said the Ohioan
told FBI agents he acted after
“hearing voices, voices, voices."
Reporters were given this account
by Brown:
Federal agents gathered fragments
of a fuse from around the dyna
mited Voice of America radio tower.
These were linked to fuse and dyna
mite purchased from a Yellow
Springs, O., dealer four days before
the transmitter was blasted.
On seeking Kinner, they found he
had disappeared from his Wilming
ton home.
Subsequently Sheriff Howard
Botts at Clinton County, Ohio, re
ceived a letter bearing Klnner’s sig
nature and stating he placed the
dynamite at the radio tower base
and set it off. The letter was mailed
from Houston and the handwriting
matched that of Kinner.

LAST RITES
HELD FOR
AL JOLSON
HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 26-4*1—'"The
entertainment world has lost Its
king, but we cannot cry ‘the king Is
dead I long live the king!’ for there
is no one to hold his scepter. Those
of us who tarry behind are but
poor Imitations, mere princelings."
Thus did George Jessel eulogize
over the body of his friend, A1 Jol
son, today. There were hundreds of
Jolson’s co-workers and friends in
side Temple Israel on Hollywood
Boulevard who heard Jesfel’s words.
Outside there were an estimated
20,000 representatives of the little
people who had been thrilled by the
majestic Jolson voice for the last
40 years.
Jessel’s eulogy came after Rabbi
Max Nussbaum, assisted by cantor
Saul Silverman, Intoned the ancient
Jewish funeral ritual over the shawl
draped body of the Immigrant can
tor’s son who won International ac
claim. *
“The American Jewry are sufferers
as well,” Jessel eulogized. "And I
must pschologlcally inform you of
the great inspiration that A1 was
to the Jewish people in the last 40
years.”
Before the services began in the
temple—not far from the theater
lights where often blazed Jolson’s
name—thousands of his fans walked
somberly past his casket as It lay
In state.
