Magsaysay Wins
Presidency Of
Phillipines
MANILA, UP)—Tired, ailing Pres
ident Elpidio Quirino Thursday
conceded victory in the Philip
pines presidential election to the
youthful, vigorous Ramon Mag
saysay, who won in a landslide.
The 46-year-old Communist-Huk
fighter, a staunch friend of the
United States, becomes the third
President of this seven-year-old
republic. He is to take office on
Jan. 1 for a four-year term. Quir
ino steps out after six years in
office.
Magsaysay was cruising in Man
ila Bay on the palatial yacht of
Adm. Richard H. Cruzen, com
mander of U.S. Naval forces in
the Phillipines, when word that
Quirion had conceded reached
him.
Over the yacht’s radio telephone
Magsaysay said he was “profound
ly grateful to our people for the
overwhelming expression of their
confidence in our cause.”
Reds Work On Air Bases
Of U.S. But No Sabotage
WASHINGTON, UPt—Sen. Case
(R-SD) said Thursday French and
British Communists are helping
build U.S. air bases abroad, but
there has been no sabotage and
none is expected.
“There is no way to screen out
Communist workers in England
and France on military projects
there,” he said and added:
“I was to'ld that many of the
workers are called Communists
but actually are State-Socialists.
They are there to earn a daily
wage and there has been no sab
otage.”
Interior Dept. Assures
Bartlett Support For
Public Works Program
WASHINGTON, UP) — Delegate
Bartlett said Friday he has been
assured of Department of Interior
support for his bill to extend the
Alaska Public Works program.
Bartlett’s bill, introduced last
session, would extend the pro1
gram four years beyond its pre
sent scheduled expiration date of
June 30, 1955. The bill would
authorize no new appropriations
but would give Alaska communi
ties additional time in which to
become eligible for participation.
Of 70 million dollars original
ly authorized by Congress for Al
aska Public Works, only $41,208,
200 has actually been appropri
ated—with but one year remain
ing of the five-year program.
Bartlett said he would push for
early action on the bill when
Congress convenes in January.
Northwest Airlines Says
1952 Record Exceeded For
Seattle-Anchorage Freight
SEATTLE, UP)—Northwest Air
lines announced Thursday that to
date this year it has exceeded its
entire 1952 freight record between
Seattle-Tacoma International Air
port and Anchorage.
In 1952 Northwest flew 4,838,
215 pounds of air freight to Alas
ka, and as of Wednesday 4,855,
825 pounds had been flown in
slightly more than 10 months this
year.
Northwest officials said the new
record would have been estab
lished sooner but for a temporary
embargo placed on air freight as
a result of the recent clerk’s strike.
Northwest announced that the
all-freight DC-4 Anchorage flight,
discontinued during the strike,
will be resumed as of Thursday.
Vicior Merryfield, of Elim, vet
eran, visited in town for a few
days, having arrived in his own
plane, which, he states, is cheaper
to keep and easier to handle than
a dog team.
Sen. Malone Says
Free Trade Hurts
Lead-Zinc Mining
SALT LAKE, UP)—Sen. George
Malone (R-Nev), here for an in
quiry on the state of America’s
domestic uranium production, told
reporters Thursday that “this free
trade idea—which is called recip
rocal trade—is killing off our lead
zinc mining.”
“It doesn’t make sense to shut
down our own mines through so
called reciprocal trade when self
sufficiency is our goal,” he added.
Malone stressed that he did not
favor shutting off all purchases of
foreign strategic metals. ‘‘But if
war should come,” said the Nev
adan, “and foreign sources are
denied us through submarine war
fare, we just have to be in a posi
tion to fulfill our needs in the
Western Hemisphere.”
Malone heads a Senate subcom
mittee which opened a two-day
hearing into the status of the na
tion’s uranium production.
The senator said that uranium
ore in the United States and Can
ada “quite likely” are extensive
enough to “make us self sufficient
in the event of another war.”
But the Senate subcommittee on
strategic materials will question
Rocky Mountain area miners and
officials of the Atomic Energy
Commission for more details on
the uranium outlook. It was ex
pected that some of the testimony
might be secret if it touched on
classified aspects.
The world has about 40 cities
with more than a million inhabi
tants.
