Governor Stepovich
Proposes Formation Of
Territorial “Cabinet”
JUNEAU—. A Governor’s coun
cil made up of commissioners and
directors of all major territorial
agencies has been proposed by
Gov. Mike Stepovich.
In a memorandum to all de
partment heads this week, Gov.
Stepovich invited them to attend
an organizational meeting to be
held March 19, at 3 p.m. in the
Senate chambers in the Federal
Building.
Purpose of the council, the
governor said, “is to enable me
to have direct communication
with the various territorial agen
cies on a continuing basis.”
The governor added that it
would keep agency directors ad
vised of all activities of the ter
ritorial government and thereby
prove mutually beneficial.
Meetings of the council would
be held monthly.
Here’s a Brand New
Word: ‘Gunka-munka’
NEW YORK, UP) — Garment
workers on strike here added a
slogan which does not appear in
the dictionary.
At their rally in Madison
Square Garden, the strikers roar
ed a warning to their employers
they would tolerate no “gunka
munka business” in enforcement
of future wage contracts.
As defined by David Dubinsky,
head of the International Ladies
Garment Workers Union, the slo
gan means a blend of dilly-dally
ing and monkey business.
» OS AN, Korea, UP*—North Korea
released two American pilots and
24 others from a South Korean
airliner hijacked 18 days ago.
The 26 returnees, who also in
cluded a West German business
man, his wife and 22 South Kor
eans, were turned over at the
Panmunjom truce headquarters
after Allied representatives gave
the Communists receipts for the
returnees.
The release was delayed sev
eral hours by a South Korean re
fusal to sign the release receipts.
A South Korean Red Cross repre
sentative finally signed after a
telephone call to the capital at
Seoul. The South Korean said he
felt the phrase that the release
was “authorized by the People’s
Republic of Korea,” North
Korea’s official name, constituted
a recognition of the Red regime.
Representatives of the US. em
bassy and the West German leg
ation signed for their nationals
without any objection.
The 26 were taken by bus to
the U.N. base camp in the Neutral
Zone for a medical checkup. The
two American pilots of the air
liner, Willis P. Hobbs of Vallejo,
Calif., and Air Force Lt. Col.
Howard W. McClellan of Bu
chanan, Mich., appeared in per
fect health and smiled broadly as
they climbed aboard the U.N. bus.
Eight Koreans from the airliner
remained in the Communist
north. The U.N. Command said
they apparently were the seven
Red agents the South Koreans
charged with taking over the
plane and the child of one of
them.
One of the Korean passengers,
Maj. Chung Moo Yung, confirm
ed that the plane was seized by
Communist agents, one armed
with a .45 caliber pistol and an
other with a rifle. The major said
he and another Korean were hurt
during the struggle on the plane.

Snowbird Brownies
Nine girls were at our meet
ing. We had a story about the
mid-summer festival in Sweden.
We played games. We planned
what to make for the bazaar.

Polar Bear Brownies—Troop 64
We stayed in Mrs. Langhus’
room. We padded and covered
hangers for the bazaar. If some
one would give us more wooden
hangers we could cover them too.
Two girls, Hannah Teayou
meak and Iva Sockpick made a
sign for the bazaar. After we
finished making our hangers we
made identification cards.

Mrs. Liebig's Troop
Our troop is working on our
leather craft badge and square
dance badge. Mr. Rehder is teach
ing us our leather craft and Mr.
Walsh is teaching our troop as
well as Mrs. Wilkie’s troop square
dancing.
We decorated Polet’s window
for Girl Scout International
Week. We made a trefoil out of
candy and attached it to different*
things from other lands with
green crepe paper. We thank Mrs.
Jackson who donated most of the
beautiful things from other lands.

Special Tax Committee
Resumes Its Study
JUNEAU —Territorial Senators
James Nolan iD-Wrangell) and
John Butrcvich (R - Fairbanks),
half of the governor’s advisory
committee on taxation, renewed
their review of Alaska’s tax
structure Monday.
Gov. Stepovich named the two
senators and Reps. Ken Johnson
(D-Anchorage) and Clinton Gray
(R-Nome) to the advisory posts
last year, with instructions to
prepare a report for him to sub
mit to the 1959 territorial legis
lature.
Johnson and Gray were unable
to attend this meeting.
The committee members and
the governor have steered clear
of saying tax reductions would be
recommended, but the purpose
clearly has been to search for
cuts in the high Alaska tax bite.
