CONTROL OF
STREAM USE
PROPOSED
FAIRBANKS, Oct. 6— UP) —The
Daily News-Miner says it has
learned of a proposed plan to
place all waters inside Alaska un
der control of the Territorial High
way Engineer. It said the plan
would embrace waters used for in
dustry, mining and agriculture.
The newspaper said a bill in its
suggested form was drafted during
the summer by the Bureau of Re
clamation at the request of Gov
ernor Gruening and Kenneth Ka
dow, director of the Department
of Interior’s f Alaska Field Staff.
The News-Miner said it has been
informed the bill in revised form
has been circulated secretly among
Democratic officials, "presumably
in preparation for introducing it
in the next session of the legisla
ture.”
It said the proposed measure is
titled "an act to promote conser
vation and utilization of waters of
the Territory of Alaska, to provide
for their appropriation and ad
ministrat.on in the public interest.”
The newspaper said the bill pro
vides that any person desiring to
use any waters must first make
an application to the Highway En
gineer for a permit; that the En
gineer could refuse to allow use of
water if, in his opinion, the water
used did not seem reasonable or
beneficial to the public interest.
It added that under the proposed
act an owner of water rights
could Sransler them only with the
Highway Engineer's approval and
they could be subject to forfeiture.
LOCAL COMMENT
Of the proposed Water Code bill,
Gov. Ernest Gruening said today,
"Officials of the Bureau of Re
clamation believe a water code is
desirable for Alaska. They pro
posed and drafted it, and submit
ted it to the Alaska Field Com
mittee for discussion.
"If approved, it is to be made
public for general discussion so
that public opinion can be form
ulated as to whether or not such
a bill should be introduced into
the 1951 Legislature.
"While it is true that most states
have such water codes, already
there are evidences of conflicts be
tween different interests regarding
water courses and water supplies.
“I am far from certain that such
a bill is now needed, and that, if it
is needed now, the present form is
best.
"I am hopeful that some of the
proposed drafts will find agree
ment at the next meeting of the
Field Committee, October 17 in Sit
ka. Such drafts should be made
public, to give the people several
months to learn the pros and cons
of such legislation.
“One of the drafts makes the
Territorial Highway Engineer the
administrator of this act.
“I question whether this is de
sirable. The Highway Engineer has

, "Washington — secretary of
State Acheson has been urging
President Truman to deliver a fire
side chat warning the nation
against falling for the Russian
peace offensive.
Acheson fears that victory in Kor
ea will lull Americans into forget
ting that western Europe is still
Russia’s No. 1 objective and that
to let down now would prove disas
trous later. Therefore, he has sug
gested the President give a blunt
talk to the people, perhaps on Col
umbus Day, and in this way ex
plode Mosccow's peace talk.
Acheson wants the President to
point out that Russia still has 75
divisions in eastern Germany—15
of them armored—and is now stock
piling huge quantities of food and
raw materials—something you do
only when you are preparing for
war.

a big job now and should not, in all
probability, be burdened with furth
er duties and responsibilities.
Should he be put in charge, the ef
fect would be delegation by him of
authority to others.
“On the other hand, if some ex
isting agency does not enter, it
! would require creation of a new
board against which some have
objected in the past, and with some
justification. They say the size of
! the Territory and the necessity,
l under Democratic proceedings, of
having various areas represented
mean that board meetings are ex
pensive and not always as effec
tive as they might be.”
Kenneth J. Kadow, chairman of
the Interior Department’s Alaska
Field Committee, said that a water
code is needed to replace present
piecemeal regulations. Drafts of the
proposed measure were reviewed
by more interested agencies in
Washington and returned to the
Field Committee for final action.
After that, the revised draft is
to be' turned over to the Terri
tory for distribution to legislators
and other citizens.
The proposed measure is being
studied by officials of the agencies
most interested, particularly the
F’ish and Wildlife Service, the De
partment of Mines and the Bur
eau of Reclamation.
Territorial Highway Engineer
Frank A. Metcalf said today he
had heard about the proposed bill,
but had not seen it.
Metcalf said it was news to
him that the Highway Engineer
was being considered as adminis
trator.
“What? Another title?” he ex
claimed. “I have nine titles now.”

BARANOF SAILS
AS FREIGHTER,
NO PASSENGERS
SEATTLE, Oct. 6 — UP) — The
steamer Baranof was to sail as
scheduled this afternoon at 5 o’clock
for Alaska, but 50 passengers who
had planned to be aboard were
casting about today for other means
of transportation.
The travelers were stranded when
the Alaska Steamship Co. cancelled
all passenger reservations. A spokes
man said it W'as because of failure
by the Marine Cooks and Stewards
Union (Ind) to give written assur
ance that its members would comply
with the Coast Guard security
screening.
D. E. Skinner, vice president and
general manager of the company,
said the Baranof would sail as an
express freighter.
The same action will be taken, he
said, for the steamer Denali unless
“we receive satisfactory assurance
from the union that its members
will sign on the ship and supply re
placements for any men ‘screened’
off in line with regular security
procedure.”
The Denali is slated to sail next
Friday.
Skinner said passengers booked
for the Baranof would be aided in
finding other passage via Canadian
lines or airplane.
Union spokesmen were not avail
able for comment. Earlier, however,
they had protested the screening
procedure because “we don’t know
: the charges, or who made them.”
Cancellation of the passenger
j service cut the stewards department
! personnel from 66 to 10, and also
! eliminated the need for three deck
I department workers, two purser’s
department workers and two radio
men.
All other maritime unions have
complied with* the screening pro
gram which is designed to keep
subversives ar.d “poor security risks”
from U. S. merchant ships.
Henry Green, Juneau agent for
| the Alaska Steamship Co., said to
I day the Baranof will make all regu
! lar ports of call northbound but
I will return directly from Seward to
! Seattle.

Navy, or who was deferred from
service during World War II to pur
sue medical, dental or allied courses.
The only exemptions from registra
tion are those who have served 21
months of active duty with the
armed forces.
Those drafted will be liable for up
to 21 months of service.
Mr. Truman signed the proclama
tion aboard his yacht, the Williams

$100,000 THAWED
FOR LOANS TO
ALASKA VETERANS
A few hours after the Board of
Administration released funds yes
terday for University of Alaska
construction, the group met again
and unfroze funds for the Terri
torial World War II Veterans’ Board.
Meeting at 4 p.m. the Board, by
unanimous vote, released $50,000 of
frozen funds and authorized the
Treasurer to release an additional
$50,000 in another month if funds
are available. The Board anticipates
that they will be.
The “thaw” followed a request by
Floyd Guertin, Veterans Commis
sioner, for Revolving Fund monies
to take care of pending requests for
loans.
Guertin said today, “The funds
will be used for home loans at a
time when the need is great for
many veterans eager to obtain hous
ing before winter. The maximum
amount of a loan is $10,000; the
average is about $6,000.”
The total $1,200,000 Veterans Re
volving Fund was frozen June 20.
1949. The sum of $100,000 was re
leased from the freeze order April
18, 1950.
What put the Territorial Treasury
in shape to permit these unfreez
ings?
Treasurer Henry Roden said to
day that the new Territorial in
come tax returns have helped more
than anything else.
“The outlook is bright,” he said.
“If anything pressing comes up in
smaller amounts, I think we can
handle it.”

Eighth-Phils Had Chance
By JACK HAND
YANKEE STADIUM, New York,
Oct. 6—W)—Gerry Coleman’s single
to left center with two out in the
last of the ninth gave the New
York Yankees their third straight
World Series victory today over the
Phillies, 3-2, before 64,505 fans.
Two scratch infield singles by
Gene Woodling and Phil Rizzuto
after two were out set the stage
for Coleman’s game-winning blow
between Richie Ashburn and Jackie
Mayo into left center.
Tom Ferrick, who came in when
Eddie Lopat was lifted for a pinch
hitter in the ninth, received credit
for the win over Russ Meyer, third
Phil pitcher. Meyer pitched only
in the ninth, in his second series
appearance. He also hurled the
ninth inning Wednesday.
Coleman, who had only one hit in
the previous Yankee victories, col
lected three off Ken Heintzelman
and Meyer, driving in two of the
three runs.
The handsome Yankee second
baseman scored Phil Rizzuto with
the first run of the game in the
third. Then after the battle see
sawed into the ninth, he put over
the clincher.
Phils Might Have Won
The Phils might have won the
gamo but for * costly error hy
shortstop Oran Hamner with the
bases full and two out In the eighth.
Hamner’s fumble of pinch hitter
Bobby Brown's hopper let Coleman
score the tying run, 2-2.
Ken Heintzelman, gray thatched
Phil lefthander, had the Yanks eat
ing out of his hand with a four
hitter going into the eighth when
he suddenly lost his control.
Henticelman Loses Stuff
There were two gone and nobody
on when Heintzelman walked Cole
man on a 3-2 count. Then he lost
his stuff and passed both Yogi Berra
and Joe DiMaggio on eight straight
balls.
Manager Eddie Sawyer strode to
the hill and called for Jim Kon
stanty, his relief ace and 1-0 open
ing day loser. It was Konstanty’s
tough luck to have Hamner bobble
Brown's grounder that would have
taken him out of the inning with
a 2-1 lead.
Phils Spurt in Ninth
The Phils, who scored in the sixth
and seventh to catch and then pass
the Yanks, spurted in their half of
the ninth. But the rally fizzled out
when Hamner was nipped at the
plate, trying to score from third on
Dick Whitman's chop to first base
man Joe Collins.
Hamner, trying to erase memory
of his error, hit reliefer Ferrick’s
first pitch for a double to left cen
ter to start the ninth. Only a fine
bare-handed nab on the hop by
Joe DiMaggio, saved it from being
a triple.
Andy Seminick moved Hamner to
unguarded third base with a bunt
to Billy Johnson. Casey Stengel
ordered Ferrick, his giant-sized re
liefer, to walk Mike Goliat inten
tionally, setting up a possible double
play situation.
Threat Ended
When Whitman, batting for Kon
stanty, chopped to Collins, Hamner
was out at the plate. Berra had it
blocked off and nipped Hamner with
a little to spare. Ed Waitkus ended
the threat with a fly to Cliff Mapes.
Then came the last of the ninth,
and with it the seventh straight one
run loss for the Phils in a streak
carrying back to 1915.
The Yanks scored first when
Rizzuto walked, stole second, took
third on Andy Seminick's bad throw
and came home on Coleman’s single
in the third.
Del Ennis and Dick Sisler, both
hitless in previous series appear
ances. broke their slump in the
sixth to tie the score. Ennis doubled
down the right field line and Sisler
punched a single over the head of
Rizzuto into short left.
Hamner's single past Lopat’s out
stretched glove to center, followed
by a sacrifice and Mike Goliat’s
single to center sent the Phils
ahead, 2-1 in the seventh.
Then New York tied on the error
in the eighth and won on Coleman’s
single in the ninth.
