Under this | plan there would be established in Alaska a class of aliens who could not be admitted into the States and whose residence would be re- | stricted to Alaska and who would, | under the law, be required to un- dertake certain specified occupa- tions in the Territory. Stumbling Block Section 14 of the bill provides | that if any settler who violates any of the undertakings set forth any Alaska development corpora- tion shall, upon conviction there- of, be subjected to imprisonment for not more than three years or to a fine of not more than $5,000, or both, and in addition may un- der certain circumstances be de- ported. This section appears settler to engage only in such oc; Cupations as are set out in Sec- in | Section 9 and assumed by him as! a condition to his certification by | tion (ment of those settlers, properly fi- to| jrefer to the undertakings of each! proposed to be set up in Alaska under the bill, and that would be considered intolerable. It follows that before I could give consent to the passage of the bill, or even its serious consideration, it would be necessary to exclude therefrom all those parts of the bill which permit settlement in Alaska of aliens who would be simultaneously barred from the re- mainder of the United States. To my mind this is fundamental. Americans First Moreover, it seems o me that no such provision is necessary when we consider that in the United States at the present time we have literally hundreds of thousands of some of our best citizens who have been obliged to leave the so-called Dust Bowl region and migrate to other parts of the nation. These people are already citizens and they are sturdy, industrious and self-reliant, would make admirable settlers in Alaska and they have enough of the Yankee genius to engage successfully in any indus- try or occupation. In addition, un- der the present quotas literally thousands of refugees have been admitted to the United States dur- ing the past few years and there would not be the slightest objec- in Alaska to the establish- nanced, in the Territory in sub- stantial, noncompetitive industries and occupations. There is no lack of human material in the United Houston’s love and fired the foot- ball hopes of Rice Institute alumni «s few coaches have done before. Neely, who transferred here from Clemson, hasn't even put a team on the field yet, but Rice fans ex- comers.

Here are flashes of life in the Far North, gleaned from the offic- ial reports of the,shivering census takers of Alaska: So far the only serious trouble I had is to wear out two sets of skis on my sled and one pair of snow shoes, also two dogs went hay- wire, but we are still using thirteen dogs as we can't get along with any less.
