The new organization will replace present locals now affiliated with the A. F. of L. The new charter was planned, according to Bowman, so as to have one union for industry-wide bargaining as to fish prices and cannery wages and working condi- tions. “But,” he added, “we have got to take this or we do not get any- thing.” “We would rather have a bird in the hand than two in the bush,” said Governor Gruening early in the hearing. “We would rather take the bill as it is and| take our chances rather than to have a bill so improved that it} would not pass this session of | Congress. Statehood now in that o | bill, with all its defects, would be ' much better than a perfect bill| e |that would give us all kinds of | things.” H “I think the present bill as‘ Fly with the leader— Go by Clipper” " SEATTLE ® Seattle is only a few hours away by big four-engine Clip- per.

The section of the bill relating to the National Forests purports {0 give to the new state the income from four sections of each town- ship In the National Forests, or one-ninth of the total forest rev- enues. Under the actual wording of the bill, Senator Anderson point- ed out, the new state would be entitled to 40-20th of the forest income—in other words, to 200 per- cent of the total revenue from fle forests. That was an error and such an allotment was not intended, they all agreed, and an Interior De- partment spokesman hastily dis- |claimed responsibility for drafting |that part of the bill. He did |not, it is noted, disclaim respornti- {bility for other parts of the bill jand it is apparent that Senator Butler was correct in nailing the Interior Department as the author of the major portion of the bill. | Sharp-eyed Senator Anderscn, lafter the hours and hours of talk |about land grants, suggested that |a method be found to make grants |of large blocks of land to the new |state without the necessity of wait- {ing for surveys and other technical imatters. This suggestion has evi- dently been embodied in the new statehood bill being brought out by the committee. The testimony regarding Indian Reservations and other reserved areas will be reviewed in the next article.
