a muktuk. Even summer gray
whales refuse to come close. Good
walrus catch in Gambell and
oogrook too. Savoonga reported
only few walrus killed. Breaking
away of their ice made hunting
below average. Two white hunters
managed to get a head each, but
not choice catch.

Security Screening
Ruled Invalid in
High Court Action
By PAUL M. YOST
WASHINGTON, UPt — Govern
ment officials are studying what
changes they must make in se
curity screening of defense plant
workers to overcome a Supreme
Court ruling that the program is
not authorized.
But they appeared confident
that the program, covering three
million civilian workers in private
plants throughout the country, can
be continued in some way to pro
tect the nation’s defense secrets.
The ruling does not affect em
ployes of the government itself,
or those in private plants who do
not need to have access to gov
ernment secrets.
The court struck hardest at an
accused worker’s lack of oppor
tunity to clear himself under the
present program. The opinion was
one of many issued Monday as the
Supreme Court ended its nine
month term and recessed until
October.
Other major decisions restricted
libel suits against policy-making
government officials, military of
ficers, and radio and T-V stations
carrying political broadcasts
which, under the law, they cannot
censor.
The court also struck down
some sections of the New York
State law under which censors
had banned showing of the film
“Lady Chatterly’s Lover.”

Beck Draws Arrest
Order for Failure
To Appear in Court
NEW YORK, UP> — Former
Teamster boss Dave Beck failed
to show up today for pleading to
charges that he accepted $200,000
from two truck firm executives
while he was union chief. A fed
eral judge immediately issued a
warrant for his arrest.
When Beck’s case was called
i in the court of Judge Gregory F.
Noonan, neither the defendant
nor his lawyer replied.
Assistant U. S. Attorney Donald
Shaw then told the court that the
case had been delayed from last
week until- today at the request
of Beck’s Seattle lawyer.
Shaw suggested that no action
be taken at the time, but that
Beck and the lawyer be given an
other chance to show up later in
the day. If they did not appear
then, he said, a warrant could be
issued.
However, Judge Noonan’s face
flushed and he snapped:
“Oh, no. I think a warrant
should be issued right now. He is
not going to play footsie with us.
“I think if he does not have
the sense to come in when noti
fied he should be brought in here
by an army if necessary."’
Beck was indicted June 17 with
the two trucking company execu
tives, who allegedly made the
$200,000 payment to him five
years ago.
The truck firm men are Roy
Fruehauf, president of Fruehauf
Trailer Co., o{ Detroit, and Burge
Seymour, president of Associated
Transport, Inc., New York.
The companies were also named
as defendants. If convicted the
individuals might receive sen
tences of one year imprisonment
and fines of $10,000. The firms
could get fines of $10,000.
Beck, 65, is at liberty in bail
while appealing two convictions.
One, by a state court in Seattle,
was for stealing $1,900 of union
funds; the other, in Tacoma, was
for evading $240,000 in income
taxes.
I n Seattle, Beck’s lawyer,
Charles Burdell, expressed sur
prise, and said “This must be all
a mistake.”

Alaska ‘Off the Wagon’
Is Lost to Russia
NEW YORK, Iff)—Even the Rus
sians have to admit it — some
body goofed.
Of course, the Russian whp
goofed didn’t do it recently. It was
way back in 1867, when Russia
was ruled by a czar.
The goof was selling Alaska to
the United States for seven mil
lion dollars. It proved, to say^ the
least, a bargain. But there was re
sounding outcry in the United
States over the purchase.
But the goof still rankles in
Russia. Yesterday Mr. Kozlov, a
first deputy premier of the Soviet
Union, brought it up during a
luncheon.
Turning to retired Admiral Alan
Kick, a former Ambassador to
Russia, Kozlov said jokingly that
Russia would like to buy Alaska
back.
“We’d give 200 million dollars
for it — but I don’t suppose you
would sell,” said Kozlov. Then he
added philosophically: “We have
a proverb in Russian: ‘If some
thing has fallen off a cart, it is
lost forever.’ ”
Well, that’s the way it is with
Alaska. As ar as the United States
is concerned, Alaska fell off that
cart a long time ago.
