Appearing as the first witness, Assistant Secretary of the Interior Warner W. Gardner vigorously en- dorsed the bill as one providing a means to resolve the state of un- certainty surrounding land titles in Alaska and especially in Southeast Alaska. The bill would authorize the Sec- retary of the Interior to enter into agreements with Alaska natives of Indian blood for “absolute surrender to the United States by said natives of all or any part of their legal and equitable rights to lands and waters in the said Territory not actually needed for their own use, upon such terms as may be deemed just by said natives and beneficial to the United States.” Support for the bill was likewise offered by James E.

Noting that at least 6500 lives were saved last year as measured against “the black record” war 1941, when 40,000 fatalities oc- curred, Mr. Truman declared the saiety campaign is “well started, but it is by no means done.” “Last year 33,500 men, women and children died as a result of highway accidents, and well over 1,000,000 were injured,” he said. “That is a tribute to mef(xcmmy ths nation cannot aflurd to pay.’ JUNEAU BOUND PADDLERS ARE COMING ALONG SEATTLE, June 18.—(P—A post card has come from two University of Idaho students paddling their way to Alaska in an aluminum canoe. Dated “Nanaimo, B. C,, June 16" the card said “Still alive, still going north, still having fun, still de- termined to paddle this cance to Alaska.” The pair, Bob Miller and Les Welch sent the card to Pat White, of the State Fisheries Department, who sighted a canoe off Possession Point, Whidby Island, while in a patrol boat about 5 a. m, June 11. Fearing the occupants were in trouble he picked them up. They were Miller and Welch. “They were in dangerous waters, the tide off the point is very strong,” White said, “so I charted a course on their map showing them the least hazardous route for their canoe.” The students left Seattle June 10, with Juneau as their destination. e e - DOUGLAS - NEWS of pre- Miss Barbara Hermann arrived home on the steamer Princess Louise to spend the summer months with her mother, Mrs. Mildred R.
