Ickes Denies
He Aspires To
Be Dictator
JUNEAU — President Roose
velt was asked in a memorial in
ti )duced in the Senate by Sen.
Don C. Brown 11 to accept im
med itoly the resignation of In
terior Secretary Harold Ickes,
tend'red a few months ago.
Senator Browne 1 accuses Icke
of continually seeking to “null
ify th. few remaining democratic
processes yet in force in Alaska”
and mentions particularly his
share, lands and immigration pro
posals.
Brownell also alleged “he has
Fascist-like control” of Matanus
ka through the medium of the
Alaska Railroad, and he attempt
ed two years ago to foist unpai
atabl tax measures on the Terri
tory. x
“If his resignation is not ac
cepted all functions of the Depart
m nt of the Interior in Alaska
should be transferred at once to
iMher the Commerce or Agricul
ture D partments,” the memorial
read.
Resignation
Of Ickes Is
Memorialized
TULSA — Secretary of Inter
ior Harold Ickes labeled as “in
spired nonsense” charges that hr
was trying to become the dictat
or of the oil industry.
Ickes answ red the charges in
an article he wrote for the Oil
Industry monthly publication
which also carried statements
from oil men opposed to any fed
eral control over their industry.
S i d Ickes:
"I believe some form of central
coordination for the prevention
of avoidable waste in oil pro
duction is necessary. Eben if I
were assured that I would be
made the umpire for the oil in
dustry, the knowledge that I
have gained and the exp. rience
that I have gained and the ex
perience that I have had would
make me extremely cautious be
fore making radical changes in
tiie present control.”

70 Searchers Are
W
Lost Bomber
MORTON, Wash., F b. 4—1Two
hours before daybreak today a
parly of 70 persons made up of
officers a’-d enlisted m n of the
United States Army Air Corpse
Washington state patrolmen and
Civil an C'nservation Corps
youths headed out from their all
flight base camp near Morton in
“the little Rockies” wilderness
vv st of Merton in search for the
wreckage of the army bomber
that was lost three weeks ago.
Reported by Two Woodsmen
Major Charles Overacker com
manding tlie 73rd bombardment
squadron at MeChord Field, near
Tacoma, Wash., confirm' d today
that two woodsmen reported
sighting wreckage in an almost
inaccessible region.
Tiie searchers have taken with
them several horses to bring back
bodies of tb seven men that
were with the lost ship.
Late yesterday MeChord Field
men set up an all-night ba 1
carry 10 miles west of Merton. A
huge campfire’s red flares la-;
n.giit lighted up tb: scene in the
woods.
Four Hours to Wreckage
Leaders of the searching party
' said before leaving camp at 5
oVl ick that it probably would
take about four hours to reach
the wreckage and then as long
or more to return aft r spend
ing possibly three or four hours
at tiie scene of the wreckage.
The plane is strewn over a
’arga area. The terrain, which is
d nsely wooded is at the base
of a cliff de-cribed somewhat
ne3r Huckleberry mountain. The
elevation is about three thousand
feet.
Germany. He add' d Britain hop
ed “it may be possible to take
some steps to reduce this traf
fic" by results of conversation
going on with the U. S. govern
ment. Dalton cited as example
th Russian purchase of 32,000
tons of cotton from the U. S. dur
ing the last quarter of 1940 while
he said large quantities of cot
ton were being sent to Russia
for Germany. He also said U. S.
sent 57. dfto tons of copper and
brass.
NO GREAT VALUE
WASHINGTON— Secretary of
State Cord 11 Hu 1 indicated the
belief American exports to Rus
sia are insufficient to be of any
great military value to Germany.
He said, however, the govern
ment is continuously studying
tbe possibility that some belliger
ent might receive benefits direct
ly or indirectly through exports
of the U. S. to other countries.
