Ickes wrote to the Washington Post in which he replies to a letter which was written by the editor of this newspaper is difficult to discuss until a copy has been received here. Our letter wds published on /on the Tokyo radio to c - Washington Merry- . 6o-Round also a Democrat, quently Like Gov. especially on foreign policy. Thus Capehart as FDR virtually gains a new Senator,| President. Jimmie Davis of THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA ;Nnvcmbor 4 in Washington and that issue of the Post was received here only this week. We have not yet }seen the full text of Ickes’ letter. The Secretary ridiculed any idea that the present unsettled land policy as a result of these aboriginal rights hearings would discourage any industfial devel- opment of Alaska. This much we know from the report of the letter which came by wire from Washington yesterday. \ We fail to see anything funny about it. It should be apparent that any potential investor is bound to be influenced by what these hearings may or may not mean. In other words, starting a new business in Alaska at any time is a risk. But at present it is just plain impossible. In the first place, if your venture requires land, whom are you going to déal with? The Department of Agriculture which ad- ministers to our forests? The Department of the Interior which controls about 90 percent of the land in Alaska? The Indians who may be able to establish prior rights to the land at any time? Perhaps even established business men {n Alaska are beginning to wonder if what they have is really their own at this time. If the Indians are able to establish priof rights to large ‘tracts of land and water areas anywhere in Southeast Alakka, there is certainly nothing to keep them from gaining owner- ship of the city of Juneau, which they claim. After lall, the city of Juneau i nothing but a corporation. Ickes says the hearings are “an attempt to find {out what lands do belong to the Indians and Eskimos of Alaska.” We do not believe the answer will be found |in our lifetime, We do know that at this time it is unfortunate | that such a problem should be forced upon Alaska by the Interior Department. There is no question {but what further development is stalled until the | question is settled. | Admiral Nimitz says that our Navy could achieve . greater results if we could find more Japanese ships to sink. But the Japs apparently are relying mainly y the fight to us. !roplacm Senator D.
