Int. See. Seaton
Will Favor Alaska
Statehood Now
WASHINGTON, UP>—F red A.
Seaton told the Senate Interior
Committee Tuesday he would try
to persuade President Eisenhower
to favor immediate admission of
Alaska as a state, along with Ha
waii, if the President opposes
Alaska.
After Seaton testified before the
committee, it unanimously recom
mended his confirmation as secre
tary of the Interior.
The action came after Seaton,
an assistant to President Eisen
hower and former Nebraska sena
tor, answered questions about
public power, natural resources
and other matters for an hour
and a half.
Seaton said he supports the
Eisenhower “partnership policy”
on development of water power
and favors immediate admission
of Alaska to statehood. He passed
over some questions from Demo
crats as subjects he must study.
Much of the questioning cen
tered about construction of the
Hell’s Canyon Dam.
A license has been issued for
building three low-power dams on
this site by a private utility.
Seaton was named for the Cabi
net post vacant since April 15
when Douglas McKay resigned to
try tc unseat Sen. Wayne Morse.
Seaton, a Nebraskan, is in private
life a newspaper, radio and tele
vision executive.
