■(Forty-seventh of a Series)
THE WRONG BILL
“As a territory, Alaska has no
control over its public lands,” com
plains the biennial report of the
Alaska Statehood Committee.
"It has no control over its re
sources of fisheries, timber, wild
life, coal, oil, minerals and water
power,” the report continues.
Only through statehood, the re
port asserts, can Alaska free it
self of these and other shackles.
The latter statement is only
partly true.
Whether Alaska is freed “of
these and other shackles” will de
pend entirely upon the provisions
of the statehood bill that is final
ly adopted.
But, if the Statehood Committee
sincerely wants the shackles
knocked off Alaska, ft is backing
the wrong bill. The statehood bill
presently before Congress will do
very little along that line.
The bill does not give Alaska
control of its fisheries. It does riot
give Alaska control of its major
commercial stands of timber—those
in the 20 million acres of national
lores ts.
The bill does not even give Al
aska control of its wildlife. And
it would give Alaska control of
only a small portion of its coal,
oil and other mineral resources. Just
what control the new state would
have over water power is not set
forth in the bill. It probably would
be very little.
As for public lands, that Is also
a sorry picture.
At the time of admission the
state could select not to exceed
200,000 acres of land in the national
forests and not to exceed 200,000
acres outside the national forests.
But all of these lands would have
to be adjacent to established com
munities or suitable for prospective
community centers and recreation,
areas.
They could be selected only from \
"vacant, unappropriated and unre
served public lands,” and all of
them "shall be primarily valuable
for uses other than timber or min
eral production.”
Additionally, any lands so sel
ected would have to be approved
by the Secretary of Agriculture or
the Secretary of the Interior.
Then the new state would get
500.000 acres for legislative, execu
tive and judicial public buildings;
200.000 acres for insane asyfens;^
200.000 acres for penitentiaries y
200,Obb acres for schools for thc;
deaf, dumb and blind; 500,000 acres
for normal schools; 200,000 acres
for charitable, penal and reform
atory institutions; 250,000 acres for
homes for pioneer residents and
500.000 acres for the University of
Alaska.
These grants would be from “va*
cant, unappropriated and unreseri
ved public lands.” They could not
interfere with existing government
reservations or homestead or min
eral claims.
All of these grants total 2,950,000
acres, which is less than one per
cent of the total area of Alaska.
Five years after the admission
of Alaska as a state it could, under
the terms of the bill, secure not
to exceed twenty million addition
al acres. Provided, that is, that it
could find, such an area not al
ready occupied by some kind of
government reservation, road and
railroad rights of . way, private
homesteads of mineral ciairhs, or
some other sort of claim.
Alaska could, then, • get a maxi
mum of around 23,000,000 acres of
land, or just oyer six percept of
the total land within its boundar
ies. That is, incidentally, approx
imately equal to the area of South
east Alaska, although little Of* land
would be in that aipa. because it
is largely occupied by’ Tohgasb Na
tional Forest.
It is, also, approximately the
same number of acres that the Fed
eral government has granted to
the State of Florida. But in Florida
the grants equal about 70 percent
of the total area of the state.
Apparently that is all the land
Alaska could ever get in Federal
grants. For the bill provides that,
in order to get any of these lands,
“said State and its people do agree
and declare that they forever dis
claim all right and , title to any
lands or other property not granted
and sonflrmed to the 'Slate or its
political subdivisions by or under
authority of this Act."
And on top of that, under this
bill, -:Alaskans.- would, < forever dis
claim;-.all right- "and ’?title to any
lknds1'or other ‘ property, including
fishing rights, the right or title
i to which may be held-by any In
dians, Eskimos or Aleuts.
What this amounts to, then, is
that Alaskans, in return for con
trol of a maximum of six percent
of the lands would give a quit claim
for the remainder of them.
Much has beeq said about the
admission of Alaska oh a basis of
] equality with other states of the
i Union. ^
| Tfie'fe is little in this bill that
provides equality with the last two
! states admitted, Arizona and New
Mexico, for example. Arizona re
ceived Federal grants of nearly 15
percent of her land area. New
Mexico was granted over 16 per
cent of her land area.
Since, by all reports, there is
little chance for the present state
hood bill to be enacted by this
Congress, there is ample time for
the Alaska Statehood Committee
to draft a new bill that would give
Alaska control oft.faer fi&kri#;, her
wildlife, a major portion of her
minerals and other resources, and
an equitable pari of her public
lands.

(Continued from Page One)
thur was aimed at bringing the Far
Eastern commander into “complete
understanding" of administration
policy and the Korean war. That
message stressed Washington’s
view of the Communist threat as
global and said actions in Korea
must not lose for the United States
the Allies Mr. Truman said this
country would “desperately need" in
case of war with Russia.
3. Marshall testified the National
Security Council — the agency cre
ated to advise the President oh
meshing domestic, foreign and mili
tary policies — was hot consulted
before MacAithur was fired.
Cain suggested the law required
consultation with the council, but
Marshall denied that.
Actually, Mr. Truman’s consulta
tions included the chief member ;
of the couVicil although Marshall
said the council was not formally
i consulted as an agency.
