Then, with sail boats taxed out of use, should HB 23 be passed by the Senate, HB 24 The Washmglon Merry-Go-Round By DREVZ_;EARSON 1Oontirued from Page One) down to negotiate an Austrina peace treaty, the' State Departme: ‘lt‘ thinks Russia will have a chance to show whether she really means what she says. If Russian dele- gates are reasonable regarding Aus- tria, Secretary of State Acheson is preparing to propose a meeting in New York of the Big Four Foreign Ministers—Russia, Britain, France and the USA—about April 5, when the United Nations holds a special assembly session. Note—Other U. S. observers Gon't agree with the State Department that Austria is a good barometer of the cold war. They point out that, since Yugoslavia broke away from the iron curtain, Russia has no reason to be tough in Austria. It was Tito's influence that pre- viously toughened up Russian pol- icy against Austria. ALONG PENNSYLVANIA AVE President Truman js happy as a schoolboy over the world-wide re- ception given to his plan to build up backward areas. After White House aides showed him stacks of newspaper clippings, the President remarked: “This idea is so good I should have thought of it a couple of years ago.” Secre- tary of State Dean Acheson has agreed to name a woman as Am- ' bassador to one of the top Eu-| ropean countries The story on what happened to the Gallup Polls, the predicters and the newspapers during the late election has just recently been published by Morris Ernst—"The People Know Best.” Healthy reading for newspape: men. . .

Alaska President for £1.50 per month; $15.00 THANKS FOR THE PRAISE It is seldom that a public acknowledgment is paid to the newspapers and the men who make them, so to Representative G. E.

At least, in his statement in which he told the Alaska Legislature: “It is part of the legislative func- tion to keep check on the executive departments and to see that the monies are expended prudently and economically.” The Legislators should take the Governor at his word. They should want to know why he and his official staff members are asking nearly twice as much for office and salaries as was appropriated by the previous biennium. The percentages of increase are higher than justi- fied by cost of living plus a 25 per cent differential in Alaska over the Outside. For instance, the Gov- ernor’s budget asks $36,600. The amount he was al- lowed in the former biennium was $17,820.20. His entertainment fund the last biennjum was $2500 and for the present one he asks $6000. He wants the Development Board continued. Legislators should want to know if it is in line with strict economy. On one hand the Governor says he doubts if his budget of $17,402341.24 will be enough properly to run the Territory, thus paving the way for higher taxes and his property tax, and on the other hand advises economy. That sounds like “double talk.” It is hoped that there are enough Alaskans in the Legislature to consider every bill and expense on its merits alone, for the general good of Alaska, rather than what will add new jobs and build up a political machine. They will be judged on the final grist. On that grist, also, will depend speeding up the day for gettin: statehood, the securmg of new mduflrles uld \l[(]n’ K aea m cnnese. SGAR BOWL CAFE CPENS SAT.
