Basing its story on Ring Lard- ner’s famous novel, “The Big Town,' Enterprise Studios has turned out a delicious bit of satire on New York's revered institutions and cus- toms with radio comedian Henry Morgan in the dual role of male lead and off-stage commentato! who spices the hilarious doings with some wryly humorous elaborations. The framework of the movie is the trip to the big city which Ernic Finch (Morgan) and his wife (Vir- ginia Grey) take to find a suitable cosmopolitan and wealthy husband for her sister (Dona Drake), and then things happen. | 32 HOMESITES T0 . BE OPENED NORTH | OF TOWN ON MAY 1 | The Mendenhall Peninsula home- site group, consisting of 32 home- sites averaging a little more than 2 acres each in area, will be opened by the Forest Service on May 1 for citizens who wish to es- taklish permanent homes. Homesites are layed out by the { Forest Service in groups near per- manent communities. The purpose iis to provide small tracts on which i settlers can establish permanent homes through their personal ef- forts and at the least financial out- lay to them. Homesites can be | patented, | Requirements and * the various | steps leading toward patent are: U. 8. Citizenship; | special use permit issued by | the Forest Service to auth- orize occupancy at a rental of $5 per year;, | construction of a good dwelling suitable for a per- manent home; occupancy as a permanent home to the exclusion of a home elsewhere for a period of 3 full consecutive years. Service of World War I and II veterans can be counted as residence for up to two years. There is no require- ment for cultivation; elimination from National Forest after the above re- 1 quirements are met; application for patent to | the District Land Office, | Anchorage, at a purchase price of $2.50 per acre, with ! a minimum payment of $10. | This group is located about 12 miles north of Juneau. It is reached by turning off the Glacier Highway at the Bureau of . Public Roads’ station near Mile Eleven. It is approximately one mile from the Glacier Highway. A mile of new low-standard road has been built extending south on the east- ern side of Mendenhall Peninsula. The homesites are located on both sides of the road. This road is so narrow that homesites permittees will be required to provide their own turn-outs for parking. Applications will be received in the office of Division Supervisor A. W. Blackerby, Room 318, Fed- eral Building, beginning at 8 am. May 1. Other details may, be obtained from Blackerby. | FROM ANCHORAGE Felix Aubucheon, of Anchorage, is a guest at the Baranof.

SOKOI SKY LETTERS 'l'o ’I‘HE GREAT--III Senatot Theodore F. Green United States Senate Washington, D. C. My Dear Senator: Perhaps in your Rhode Island environment, you do not meet con- spirators. .In fact, I never really met any good ones, except Leon Trotzky, until I went to see a revolution back in 1917. I witnessed the seizure of the largest territorial mass on this| Earth. I was, actually in Petrograd at the time. Now, Senator, please| do not get me wrong. I was never a Communist, a Bolshevik, or a Marxist—whichever word you want to use. But that revolution al- tered my outlook on human liberty. It brought me very close to your forebears. I can see by the way you inter- rogated Louis Budenz that you have | no familiarity with revolutions or| revolutionary disciplines. In Rhode Island, there have been no funda- | mental Revolutions since the days| of Roger Williams, who believed in human liberty. Since then, the! plantations of Providence have been going their quiet way as an ap- pendix to Massachusetts. The atmosphere and technique of revolution must therefore bel strange, fantastic and unbelievable to you. | Yet, you must recognize that the revolutionary conspiracy which | your committee is investigating has been astonishingly successful. In 1917, when it seeded itself in Russ- ia, it blossomed intg & vast im-| perialism. In ‘1917, there were about 170,000,000 persons under the! control of the Russian Czars; to- day, about 800,000,000 human ' be-| ings are enslaved to the Soviet | Commisars. It is a large increase not only of land, but of territory and resources. That fact stands. Your prqtege, Mr. Owen Lattimore, asks for an investigation of the “Chinese Lob- by.” I know of nothing that would welcome more heartily. Why | do you not undertake such an in- vestigation? You might be shocked to dis- cover that large numbers of Am-| ericans are devoting themselves ar-| dently to any kind of investigation | that will uncover the crimes com- mitted against the Chinese people | by our own government to appeas Russia. You see, if you investi- gate the friends of China, what the enemies of China have done must come out, too. It will emphasize what Budenz was trying to tell you. But that is not what we began to discuss in this letter. It was, I believe, why you and so many fine Americans are confused about the Communist conspiracy. Let me | put it this way: All sorts of per-! sons are involved in this conspir- acy, some knowingly, some unwit-| tingly, Let us put them into cate-| gories: 1. International Communist oper- atives, including special cells; ; 2. Communist party members; 3. Marxists but not party mem- bers 4. Fellow-Travelers; 5. Innocents; 6. Doctrinaire believers in two sides to every question, You were shocked, Senator, that Louis Budenz put Owen Lattimore | into a Communist cell in the In- stitute of Pacific Relations; yet, he said that he did not know Latti- more. Had you paid any :ugmlon! to the trial of the eleven, which | you apparently did not, you would have known that Budenz testified in it as the Government's chief| witness. You would also have known, from the Alger Hiss Case, | that Communist cells work inde-| Hede | Massing, for instance, nearly got! into trouble by trying to steal Noel Field from Alger Hiss. She should not have spolegn to Hiss or known him. Conspiracies, Senator, are not or- ganized to make it easy for the conspirators to be caught. In fact, the conspiracy is often fouled up to avoid detection. It is important then to be clear about what Budenz did say: 1. There was a Oommums!. cell in the Institute of Pacific Relations headed by Frederick Vanderbilt Field and Philip Jaffe; 2. That Owen Lattimore was'a member of that cell and that Bu- denz knew that because he had gull its bird.

He was officially instructed to regard Lattimere as a Communist. This does not. mean that Lnt!l- more was a party member; jmeans that Budenz was instructed to follow Lattimore’s lead in such matters as Lattimore dealt with from a party standpoint; 4. He did not know Owen Latti- more personally as he probably did not know thousands of persons con- cerning whom he had speclifc in- structions as editor of the “Daily ‘Worker.” Now, Senator, this all leads to the “Amerasia” case. May I sug- gest, Senator, that there is no way of suppressing that case any long- er? That cat is out of the bag. It will scratch anyone who ulesi to bag her. Respectfully yours, George E, Sokolsky. TULSEQUAH TO TIDEWATER ROAD FEASIBLE: NOYES A road from Tulsequah to tide- water in Taku Inlet is feasible, Col John R. Noyes, head of the Alaska Road Commission, told the Cham- ber of Commerce today, but Canada must make the first step if the road is to be built. Reporting to the Chamber on conferences he had had with Ca- nadian road officials in Vancouvs B(C., he said they saw the advan- tages of constructing the road. Mining activity in the' Tulsequah area is on the upswing, Colonel Noyes said, and the need for a road to tidewater to make this highly minerlized area more Wccessible is seen by the Canadian road officials and heads of mining companies. Although he doesn’t think it is reasonably possible to continue such a road from tidewater to Juneau, the colonel pointed out that the 25 miles from here to that posint would ; be a short car-ferry run. With a road to Tulsequah from tidewater, and proposed roads or | roads under construction completed |in Canada, Juneau would have a good connection by road—plus car ferry—to the Alaska Highway and the States. Colonel Noyes has urged that the Canadian mining companies get { their government behind them on | the Taku road project and then in- form him, so he and other road officials would have something to work with in their effort to get a survey and a cost estimate of the proposed route made. He said he will make a highway trip in June with the British Co- lumbia minister of public works to inspect Canadian and Alaskan | roads. The trip will include a stop in Juneau after traveling the Haines | cut-off, and he suggested that the Chamber of Commerce arrange to | have the Canadian road official flown over the proposed Taku route.

Gargan suspects the murder is the work of Richard Travis, cold-blooded racke- teer who virtually controls the waterfront and who forced Gar- gan’s demotion and transfer when the officer had started closing in on his nefarious activities. So Gar- gan has this added personal reason for wanting to get the goods on Travis this time. Until he does, he knows there is little chance of cleaning up the waterfront. There is also another feature on the theatre’s bill and it is titled “Fighting Mad.” COASTAL FLIGHTS BRING 14; TAKE 31 Alaska Coastal Airlines flights yesterday brought 14 persons to Juneau and carried 31 from here to points in Southeast Alaska.
