COMMITTEE
DATA ON PULP
WASHINGTON. July 11 — UR —
The U.S. Forest Service describes
Southeast Alaska as the possible
source for a “major expansion'1 of
the newsprint industry.
The service estimated the area's
potential production capacity at
1,000,000 tons annually—or a fifth
of all this country’s newsprint
needs.
A review of Alaskan pulp and
paper possibilities was given to a
House Judiciary subcommittee by
Ira J. Mason, chief of the forest
service division of timber manage
ment.
The subcommittee, studying
monopoly powers in business, re
newed its investigation of the news
print industry after a 10-day . re
cess. Among witnesses scheduled
for this week is Sam B. Eubanks,
vice-president of the American
Newspaper Guild. He is to testify
Wednesday.
Mason, in a prepared statement,
said: “No other portion of the
United States can equal the possi
bilities of Southeast Alaska for the
establishment of new pulp and
paper plants.”
Most of the usable timber is in
Tongass National Forest, he said,
in the Alaskan panhandle extend
ing 350 miles south along the west
ern side of British Columbia.
Mason said the Forest Service has
been attempting to encourage estab
lishment of the pulp and paper in
dustry in this area but while there i
has been considerable interest, no
permanent development has yet re
sulted.
There are indications. Mason
j added, that if a newsprint industry
is to be established in Alaska, “sub
I stantial participation” by newsprint
] consumers might be necessary—pre
sumably to insure a market.
He said the forest service is pre
pared to advertise timber contracts
on a sustained yield basis. Mason
conceded there were disadvantages
which have so far impeded estab
j lishment of paper plants in South- 1
| east Alaska.
| He listed some of them as the
, need for large initial investments up
I to S20.000.000 in virgin territory.
! Alaskan wage rates generally 25
j percent higher than in the States,
■ high shipping costs to consuming
, markets, and dependency on gov
j emment-owned timber,
j On the other hand. Mason said,
manufacturers would enjoy the ad
j vantages of almost unlimited tim
ber supplies readily accessible to
water transportation, excellent
plant and terminal facilities in the
Ketchikan and Juneau areas, ideal
year-round operation conditions,
and adequate hydroelectric power.

An outline of civilian defense j
plans for Anchorage and surround
ing area am to be laid out today!
before Gov Ernest Gruening. now in
the Hub City to confer with Lieut.
Gen. Natl.in F. Twining, chief of
the Alaska Command.
The governor’s two appointees to
head civilian defense in Alaska —
Col. Joseph D. Alexander, acting i
adjutant general of the national
guard and Dr. C. Earl Albrecht. ■
commissi' ner of health—have been
on the spot for the past 10 days

with city officials on methods to
be followed in event of an emer
gency.
The civilian defense work was
brought to the fore at the outset
Df the Korean outbreak and the
possibility of its carrying over into
Alaska, particularly to th# Fair
banks-Anchorage-Kodiak line.

fS AMERICANS
ARE SLAIN WHEN
BOUND BY REDS
AN AMERICAN BASE IN SOUTH
KOREA .July II—iff!—Front line
reports tonight indicate 18 Amer
ican soldiers have been bound and
slain by their Communist North
Korean captors.
U. S. fighting men expressed
anger over the manner of the kill
ings.
Allowances were made for possible
duplications in the battlefront
cases reported. In each instance
the type of wound, nature of the
binding.' and other distinguishing
marks were sifted by reporters to
try to avoid duplication.
Lt. D. C. Gates of Joinerville,
Tex., was the first to report the
atrocity slayings of bound prisoners.
He said the GI's were slain after
having surrendered. Their hands
were bound behind them. The
bodies were in an area where a
see-saw battle raged.
Then came Associated Press cor
respondent William R. Moore, who
found two more in a frontline area.
The markings on the bindings of
these two bodies were different
from those described by Gates.
The two Moore found had been
shot in the forehead. The seven
Gates reported were hit in the
face by bullets.
An Army doctor, Capt. Donald
Duerk of Long Island, N. Y., re
ported seeing three bound bodies
at an aid station. At least one
of these victims had been shot
behind the ear. He said the bod
ies were found in an artfa recap
tured by the Americans.
General MacArthur has warned
the North Koreans that those res
ponsible for the atrocity slayings
will be punished. He has ordered
United Nations soldiers to observe
the rules of civilized warfare.
South Korean commanders have
so instructed their troops.
