IT GLOWED SO BRIGHTLY, TOO -
Let’s Count All S he Potential!
THE ARTHUR D. LITTLE, Inc. of Cambridge,
Mass., has four top men in the organization
visiting in some of the communities of Alaska to for
mulate a program designed to attract industry and
business to Alaska by finding out which particular
industries can be developed profitably.
Laurence S. Rockefeller, chairman of the Out
door Recreation Resources Review Commission, has
been touring Alaska to make an appraisal of the
state’s potential recreation areas.
By some strange coincidence neither of these
.groups found time to look over the potential of North
western Alaska. It is true that both groups probably
saw so much potential in the other three districts
that they have more than enough material to start
planning for the 49th State. However, all parts of the
State need to share equally when it comes to devel
opments and the Second District has much to offer
as well as the rest of Alaska and should not be by
passed in the initial survey.
The reindeer industry needs the advantage of
the experience and know-how of a company like the
Little organization. The recreational possibilities in
the Nome area offer a sharp contrast to those of the
more developed areas, with its wild life, its primitive
people, its Arctic attractions, in both winter and
summer, which cannot be equalled any other place
in the State.
No evaluation of the State’s potential is com
plete without a study of Northwestern Alaska!
Satisfying Service
PRESIDENT CANHAM of the Chamber of Com
merce of the United States, urges that retired
citizens plunge into politics — and says that they
will find it active, rewarding, exciting, productive and
engrossing work. He points out that retired people
can serve the political parties of their choice by work
ing at the precinct level, and that they do not have to
become candidates for office. As he sees it, “We need
more doorbell ringers.”

Personal Diplomacy. Mold- Door
°i >cn For Another I rip Abroad
By JOHN M. HIGHTOWER
WASHINGTON, UP— President
Eisenhower, rejecting all criticism
of his ventures in personal diplo
macy, held the way open for an
other goodwill trip abroad should
he deem it necessary to promote
free world unity.
The chance that he will embark
on a new journey during his last
seven months in office is slight,
Eisenhower indicated Monday
night. But his declaration of
readiness to go showed up dra
matically his argument that pre
vious travels have greatly streng
thened free world ties and served
“to obstruct Communist imperial
ism.”
In a half-hour television ad
dress to the nation, the President
said the cancellation of his sched
uled visit to Japan 10 days ago
stemmed from Communist - in
spired disorders in Tokyo.
But he said his inability to go
had been far outweighed in im
portance by Japan’s subsequent
ratification of a new security pact
with the United States. He called
that a “signal defeat for inter
national Communism” and “an
important victory for the free
world.”
As for the Tokyo riots which
prevented his visit to Japan, he
commented that “these disorders
were not occasioned by America.”
and added: “We in the United
States must not fall into the error
Methodist Church Reports
Large Growth In Alaska
NEW YORK, Itf) — Methodist
leaders reported today that mem
bership in the denomination in
Alaska has increased 232 per cent
in the last decade-—to 3,136.
This gain is about twice as
fast as the population increase
in the period.
The Rev. Dr. Alien B. Rice, of
Philadelphia, executive secretary
for Methodist Home Missions, pre
dicted Alaskan Methodists would
number 10,000 by 1970. He said:
“With a growing membership,
an aggressive program, adequate
facilities and the backing of a
strong Alaska Methodist Univer
sity, the Methodist Church in Al
aska faces the future with great
hope.”

of blaming ourselves for what the

munists will act like Commun
ists.”
Congressional comment on the
speech indicated a general satis
faction that tours by heads of
state are waning. But while Re
publicans accepted Eisenhower's
statement that big gains had been
made by such tours, Democrats
limited themselves to expressions
of hope that it was true.
Chairman J. William Fulbright
'D-Arki of the Foreign Relations
Committee said that “the Presi
dent’s decision not to make any
more trips is a sound one.”
Sen. Everett Dirksen of Illinois,
the Senate Republican leader,
called Eisenhower’s speech “an
adequate answer” to critics of the
latest trip.
