- CONTROL OF H VOL. LXXV., NO. 11,625 “ALL THE NEWS ALL THE TIME” JUNEAU, ALASKA, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1950 i 5 | Paoy (s THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE MEMBER ASSOCIATED PRESS PRICE TEN CENTS — Single With Two Out Wins For Yanks in 9th STREAM USE PROPOSED FAIRBANKS, Oct. 6— (# —The Daily News-Miner says it has| | justification, They say the size of | the a big job now and should not, in all probability, be burdened with furth- er duties and responsibilities. Should he be put in charge, the ef- fect would be delegation by him of authority to others, “On the other hand, if some ex- isting agency does not enter, it| "would require creation of a new board against which some have objected in the past, and with some Territory and the necessity, | under Democratic proceedings, of | having various areas represented learned of a proposed plan to place all walers inside Alaska un-| der control of the Territorial High- | way Engineer, It said the plan| would embrace waters used for in-| dustry, mining and agriculture. The newspaper said a bill in its| suggested form was drafted during the summer by the Bureau of Re- clamation at the request of Gov- ernor Gruening and Kenneth Ka- dow, director of the Department | of Interior's jAlaska Field Staff. The News-Miner said it has been | informed the bill in revised form has been circulated secretly among Democratic officials, ‘“presumably in preparation for introducing it in the next session of the legisla- ture.” It said the proposed measure is titled “an act to promote conser- vation and utilization of waters of the Territory of Alaska, to provide for their appropriation and ad- ministrat.on in the public interest.” The newspaper said the bill pro- vides thai any person desiring to| use any waters must first make; an application to the Highway En-| gineer for a permit; that the En- gineer could refuse to allow use of water if, in his opinion, the water used did not seem reasonable or beneficial to the public interest. It added that under the proposed act an owner of water rights could transter them only with the Highway Engineer's approval and they could be subject to forfeiture.| LOCAL COMMENT Of the proposed Water Code bill, Gov, Ernest Gruening said mday,i “Officials of the Bureau of Re-| clamation believe a water code is desirakble for Alaska. They pro-| posed and drafted it, and submit- ted it to the Alaska Field Com- | mittee for ~discussion, | “If approved, it is to be made| public for general discussion so that public opinion can be form- ulated as to whether or not such| a bill should be introduced into | the 1951 Legislature. “While it is true that most states | have such water codes, already | there are evidences of conflicts be- | tween different interests regarding | water courses and water supphes.i “I am far from certain that such a bill is now needed, and that, if it is needed now, the present form 1s best, “I am hopeful that some of the proposed drafts will find agree-! ment at the next meeting of the Field Committee, October 17 in Sit- | ka. Such drafts should be made public, to give the people several months to learn the pros and cons of such legislation. “One of the drafts makes the Territorial Highway Engineer the administrator of this act. “I question whether this is de-| sirable. The Highway Engineer has | The Washington Merry - Go - Round i1ght, 1950, by Bell Syndicate, Inec.) s By DREW PEARSON ‘ .mSHINGTON — Secretary of i State Acheson has been urging! President Truman to deliver a fire- side chat warning the nation against falling for the Russian peace offensive. Acheson fears that victory in Kor- ea will lull Americans into forget- ting that western Europe is still Russia’s No, 1 objective and that to let down now would prove disas- trous later, Therefore, he has sug- gested the President give a blunt talk to the people, perhaps on Col- umbus Day, and in this way ex- plode Mosccow’s peace talk. Acheson wants the President to point out that Russia still has 75 divisions in eastern Germany—15 of them armored—and is now stock- piling huge quantities of food and raw materials—something you do only when you are preparing for War. Senate Poet Laureate Scott Lucas, the hard-boiled Sen- ate leader, is one thing; but Scott Lucas, the rhymester, is another. Most people don’t know that when the Senator from Illinois gets fed up with long, drawn-out Sen- ate debates he scribbles lyrics. Here (Continued on Pl&e Four) mean that board meetings are ex- pensive and not always as effec- tive as they might be.” Kenneth J. Kadow, chairman of the Interior Department’s Alaska Field Committes, said that a water code is needed to replace present | piecemeal regulations. Drafts of the | proposed measure were reviewed by more interested agencies in Washington and returned to the | Field Committee for final action. | After that, the revised draft is| to be' turned over to the Terri-| tory for distribution to legislators | and other citizens. The proposed measure is being studied by officials of the agencies most interested, particularly the Fish and Wildlife Service, the De- | partment of Mines and the Bur- had heard about the proposed bill, but had not seen it. !

The travelers were stranded when the Alaska Steamship Co. cancelled all passenger reservations. A spokes- man said it was because of failure by the Marine Cooks and Stewards | Union (Ind) to give written assur- ance that its members would comply with the Coast Guard security screening. D. E. Skinner, vice president and general manager of the company, said the Baranof would sail as an express freighter. The same action will be taken, he said, for the steamer Denali unless “we receive satisfactory assurance from the union that its members will sign on the ship and supply re- placements for any men ‘screened’ off in line with regular security Skinner said passengers booked for the Baranof would be aided in | finding other passage via Canadian lines or airplane. Union spokesmen were not avail- able for comment. Earlier, however, | they had protested the screening the charges, or who made them.” Cancellation of the passenger | service cut the stewards department personnel from 66 to 10, and also eliminated the need for three deck department workers, two purser’s department workers and two radio- men. All other maritinic unions have complied with the screening pro- gram which is designed to keep subversives and “poor security risks” from U. S. merchant ships. Henry Green, Juneau agent for the Alaska Steamship Co., said to- day the Baranof will make all regu- lar ports of call northbound but | will return directly from Seward to Seattle.

SHRINE €LUB MEETS The Juneau Shrine Club meets tonight at 8 o'clock at the home of '$100,000 THAWED Drafting of Medical Men Starts Soon WASHINGTON, Oct. 6. — (B — President Truman set machinery in motion today for a draft of physi- cians and dentists for the armed services. The first registration date will be Monday, Oct. 18. Under a Presidential proclama- tion, registration is required then by every man under age 50 who participated as a student in the Army Specialized Training Program, or a similar program under the Navy, or who was deferred from service during World War II to pur- sue medical, dental or allied courses. The only exemptions from registra- tion are those who have served 21 months of active duty with the armed forces. Those drafted will be liable for up to 21 months of service. Mr. Truman signed the proclama- tion aboard his yacht, the Williams- burg, this morning while it was an- chored at the confluence of the St. Mary’s and Potomac Rivers. He has been on a vacation cruise for a week. Copies of the proclamation were ! made public by the White House. FOR LOANS T0 ALASKA VETERANS A few hours after the Board of Administration released funds yes- terday for University of Alaska construction, the group met ‘again and unfroze funds for the Terri- torial World War II Veterans’ Board. Meeting at 4 p.m. the Board, by unanimous vote, released $50,000 of frozen funds and authorized the Treasurer to release an additional $50,000 in another month if funds| are available. The Board anticipates | that they will be. | The “thaw” followed a request by | Floyd Guertin, Veterans Commis- | sioner, for Revolving Fund monies to take care of pending requests for | loans. ! Guertin said today, “The funds will be used for home loans at a| time when the need is great for| many veterans eager to obtain hous- ing before winter. The maximum | amount of a loan is $10,000;- the average is about $6,000.” The total $1,200,000 Veterans Re- volving Fund was frozen June 20, 1949. The sum of $100,000 was re- i | ROBERT TOMLINSON IS POLIO VICTIM IN KETCHIKAN Robert Tomlinson, age 28 of Ketchikan, is the fourth victim of bulbar type of -poliomyelitis, it was reported this morning to the Alaska Department of Health. It was for him that the iron lung was flown from Anchorage early yesterday. He was in the “lung” when he passed away. Tomlinson was a veteran of World War Two and former commander |of the local VFW. His wife and three year old daughter survive. An Eskimo woman from Point Barrow brings the total number of cases in the Territory to 28, in- cluding the four deaths reported previously. Cases thus far reported to the Alaska Department of Health are: Anchorage, 10; Fairbanks, 13; Ketchikan, 3; Point Barrow, 1; and Juneau, 1, Dr. James T. Googe, Director of Local Health Services for the Alaska Department of Health states that fases are beginning to appear in many communities, showing it is wide spread. Every effort by physi- cians, health officers, and national organizations are doing everything possible to give the stricken people the best care that it is possible to get. A trained physiotherapist and a nurse trained in poliomyelitis treatment from the National Foun- dation for Iniantile Paralysis should arrive in the Territory either today or tomorrow.

PLAY-BY-PLAY First Inning PHILLIES — Waitkus drilled a |ground single past Coleman into right field. After missing two sacri- fice attempts, Ashburn struck out.

Hamner smashed a single off | Johnson’s glove, the ball rolling into | short left field before Rizzuto could | retrieve it. Seminick rifled a single past Rizzuto into center field, and Hamner with a burst of speed reached third just ahead of Di- Maggio’s throw. Lopat charged off {the mound to field Goliat’s roller, | faked Hamner back to third, then 1wheeled and whipped out Goliat at | first. Seminick moved to second on |the play.

This also was the first hit of the series for Sisler. Hamner missed an attempted surprise bunt and Sisler was caught off first, Berra to Mize. One run, two hits, no errors, none left on base. YANKEES—Coleman shot a line single over Jones' head into left field. Berra fouled to Seminick be- hind home plate. DiMaggio flied to Sisler in deep left.

Two scratch infield singles by Gene Woodling and Phil Rizzuto after two were out set the stage for Coleman's game-winning blow between Richie Ashburn and Jackie Mayo into left center. Tom Ferrick, who came in when Eddie Lopat was lifted for a pinch hitter in the ninth, received credit for the win over Russ Meyer, third Phil pitcher. Meyer pitched only in the ninth, in his second series appearance. He also hurled the ninth inning Wednesday. Coleman, who had only one hit in the previous Yankee victories, col- lected three off Ken Heintzelman and Meyer, driving in ‘two of the three runs. The handsome Yankee second baseman scored Phil' Rizzuto with the first run of the game in the third. Then after the battle see- sawed into the ninth, he put over the clincher. Phils Might Have Won The Phils might have won the game buti-for-a- costly ‘arrer by shortstop Gran Hamner with the bases full and two out in the eighth. Hamner's fumble of pinch hitter Bobby Brown's hopper let Coleman score the tying run, 2-2. Ken Heintzelman, gray thatched Phil lefthander, had the Yanks eat- ing out of his hand with a four- hitter going into the eighth when he suddenly lost his control. Hentizelman Loses Stuff There were two gone and nobody on when Heintzelman walked Cole- man on a 3-2 count. Then he lost his stuff and passed both Yogi Berra and Joe DiMaggio on eight straight balls. Manager Eddie Sawyer strode to the hill and called for Jim Kon- stanty, his relief ace and 1-0 open- ing day loser. It was Konstanty's tough luck to have Hamner bobble Brown's grounder that would have taken him out of the inning with a 2-1 lead. Phils Spurt in Ninth The Phils, who scored in the sixth and seventh to catch and then pass the Yanks, spurted in their half of the ninth. But the rally fizzled out when Hamner was nipped at the plate, trying to score from third on Dick Whitman’s chop to first base- man Joe Collins. Hamner, trying to erase memory of his error, hit reliefer Ferrick's first pitch for a double to left cen- ter to start the ninth. Only a fine bare-handed nab on the hop by Joe DiMaggio, saved it from being a triple, Andy Seminick moved Hamner to unguarded third base with a bunt to Billy Johnson. Casey Stengel ordered Ferrick, his giant-sized re- liefer, to walk Mike Goliat inten- tionally, setting up a possible double play situation. Threat Ended When Whitman, batting for Kon- stanty, chopped to Collins, Hamner was out at the plate. Berra had it blocked off and nipped Hamner with a little to spare. Ed Waitkus ended the threat with a fly to Cliff Mapes. Then came the last of the ninth, | and with it the seventh straight one- run loss for the Phils in a streak carrying back to 1915. The Yanks scored first when Rizzuto walked, stole second, took third on Andy Seminick’s bad throw and came home on Coleman’s single in the third. Del Ennis and Dick Sisler, both hitless in previous series appear- ances, broke their slump in the sixth to tie the score. Ennis doubled down the right field line and Sisler punched a single over the head of Rizzuto into short left. Hamner's single past Lopat’s out- stretched glove to center, followed by a sacrifice and Mike Goliat's single to center sent the Phils ahead, 2-1 in the seventh. Then New York tied on the error in the eighth and won on Coleman’s single in the ninth,
