Board Authorizes
Gas Pipeline toU.S.
From Canada
OTTAWA, (JP) — The Board of
Transport Commissioners Satur
day authorized Westcoast Trans
mission Company to build a natu
ral gas pipeline from the Peace
River area to Vancouver and the
British Columbia - United States
border.
Earlier, the board had given the
company a qualified authorization
for the 960-mile project, provided
a survey would establish that
there were enough gas reserves
in the Peace River district to
justify the line.
In its final decision Saturday
the board said- a survey made by
federal engineers had indicated
reserves of two trillion, two bill
ion cubic feet in the area strad
dling the northern Alberta-British
Columbia boundary.
On the basis of evidence before
the board, the estimated reserves
would be enough to supply for
at least 25 years the company’s
expected markets in British Col
umbia and the U.S. Pacific North
west.
To get into the U.S. market,
Westcoast will need authorization
from the Federal Power Com
mision of the U.S. It now has an
application pending before that
body.
It has been indicated the U.S.
authorization is essential to the
construction of the line, as the
available British Columbia mar
ket is not considered large enough
to carry the $111,000,000 cost of
the Canadian section of the pro
ject.
Bureau to Keep
Check on Federal
Land in Alaska
WASHINGTON, (/P)—The Bu
reau of Land Management is
launching what it described Sat
urday as an aggressive program
designed to keep constant check
on federal land reservations in
Alaska.
Acting Interior Secretary Ver
non D. Northrop said publication
of an Alaska withdrawal atlas by
the bureau laid the ground work
for the program.
He said the atlas will facilitate
restoration to' the public domain,
wherever possible, of lands now
held in military and other types
of reservations.
In a forward in the atlas, bu
reau director Marion Clawson de
scribed the work as one phase of
a program to promote the fullest
use of Alaska resources to support
the territorial and national econ
omics and the emergency mobili
zation effort.
Clawson said assignments of
land for public purposes “have not
been laid down according to any
‘master plan’ but rather in accor
dance with the plans of a multi
tude of federal and territorial
agencies.
“Furthermore, in respect to
natural resources particularly, lo
cation is of significant importance.
The correct amount of a resource
in the right place is worth far
more to the potential user than
great volumes of the same re
source not so favorably located.
As a result, intense competition
rises for the most desirable loca
tions.”

CHAS. D. jONES
Candidate for Senator
Fellow Alaskans:
In asking for your vote
and support in the com
ing election Oct. 14, 1952,
, I submit the following
for your consideration:
I believe that from my
life in Alaska; from my
record in the Legislature
in voting for measures
for the best interest of
all of us; from my knowl
edge of the conditions
now confronting us and
from my reputation for
honesiy and fair dealing; that I have demonstrated my ability
to represent you.
I am a Republican because I believe in the Individual and
his right to what he produces, subject only to the rights of
others; a government of laws, not men; and of such taxes which
are necessary to efficiently carry on our governmental functions
> —but a just and representative government.
I will serve you honestly and will, at all times, be gov
erned by the necessity for and effect of all measures introduced.
I solicit your support for the entire Republican Ticket so
as to be able to pass measures which the Republicans believe
to be for the best interests of all of us.
With abiding faith in the future of our country and that
we may all prosper with it, again solociting your vote and
support. Very sincerely yours,
I •

Eisenhower Lashes at
Truman Administration of
‘Exploit, Tax, Spend, Rule’
(By the Associated Press)
Republican candidate Dwight
D. Eisenhower paused briefly in
Denver to sharpen another slash
ing attack on the Democrats. In
Salt Lake City Friday night, Eis
enhower said the Truman admin
istration “doesn’t know where it
is going, is afraid it won’t get
there and is sure it wouldn’t know
what tor do if it arrived.”
He lashed at what he called
“the prevailing political practice
of divide, exploit, tax, spend and
rule.”
Another campaigner, Republi
can Sen. Robert Taft of Ohio, was
in weekend recess. Friday he de
clared what he called the Truman
administration’s “softness to Com
munism.”
Taft climbed unhurt out of an
overloaded hotel elevator, which
had plummeted out of control to
the shaft bottom, to make his
talk.
When men dig into the earth
they find that temperatures rise
about one degree Fahrenheit for
every 60 or 70 feet of depth.

I AN ALASKAN REPUBLICAN
I
says . . .
I Thai all Alaskans should take an oath of allegiance to their country, against
graft and corruption, against the ever-climbing prices, against higher taxes, against rl
bureaucrats who assisted so successfully in the almost total destruction of the Eskimo- M v
owned reindeer, against carpetbagger officials appointed in Washington to improperly
govern Alaskans, against Democrats who are yes-men to the carpetbagger's rule,
against the unfair and costly-to-the-Eskimos Property Tax Law;
Against the Bartlett no-roads policy for the 2nd Division, against Bartlett's selec- p
tion of an outside Communistic agent for Red Poland to represent our statehood claim
to Congress, a great and wrongful waste of Territorial funds; against Bartlett's hiring
of non-Alaskans to guide him in the expenditure of Territorial funds, against Bartlett's
outright action in hiring such men who never came closer to Alaska than looking
at its map, against Bartlett because by this hire of outsiders he indicated to all tj
Alaskans that he fully believed that there are no Alaskans living today who are
capable of properly and intelligently presenting statehood to members of Congress;
Against Bartlett because he changed his Alaskan hopes and desires to become s.;
just a Democratic politician who wants, above all things, to remain on the govern
ment payroll, against Bartlett because he is simply all politician who has no business |j
interests in Alaska, no home in Alaska—whereas Bob Reeve maintains and operates t
a large business concern in Anchorage and throughout the Third Division, an air
plane transportation business. I
Democrats want and need politicians. Alaskan Republican voters want and need j 1
and experienced businessman to represent all Alaska in Washington. For a change,
I vote for Robert C. Reeve for Delegate; for Anita Garnick for Auditor; for Irving
Reed for Highway Engineer; For Senators, Charles D. Jones and W. W. "Chief"
Laws; for Representatives, Edith Bullock, Richard E. Lee and Samuel (Sammy) Mogg.
