Will Consider But Not
Favor Recommendation
For Alaska Governor
WASHINGTON, UPI — Douglas
McKay, the new Secretary of the
Interior, said he still has not re
ceived any recommendation from
the Alaska Republican Central
Committee on its choice for gov
ernor.
McKay had said earlier he was
not inclined to appoint any of
those seeking the job of succeed
ing Governor Ernest Gruening
when Gruening’s term expires in
, April.
He recommended that Alaska
Republicans unite on a recom
mendation, which he would con
sider but not necessarily favor.
The Alaska Republicans voted
9 to 5 in favor of Robert Reeve
of Anchorage. Reeve was the de
feated Republican candidate for
Territorial Delegate last fall. He
lost to Delegate Bartlett, holdover
Democrat.
. McKay said he knew nothing
about a “flood of telegrams” over
the situation,, declaring no “flood”
had immersed his office. Juneau
had reported the telegram flood.

New Plastic Operation For Falsies
Will Fool Everybody but the Surgeon
_ _ *
By JAMES BACON
HOLLYWOOD, (IP) — A plastic
surgeon disclosed today how any
girl can become a Jane Russell
through science—and fool every
body but her surgeon.
That means that girls whom
nature has forgotten need no
longer stuff their bras with cot- j
ton. Instead, reports Dr. Robert
Franklyn, an inside falsie can be :
made with plastic, inserted under !
the skin.
“A size 34, which is insufficient,
can become 36, which is sufficient
i and a 36 can become a 38, which
is more than sufficient, even in
Hollywood,” states the surgeon,
who numbers many a movie
queen among his patients.
Dr. Franklyn claims he has suc
cuessfully performed the opera
tion on 25 women, some of them
well known to movie fans. The
plastic, first developed by him in
soft form, is a sponge-like sub
stance that feels fleshy. It can
also be used to build up hollow
cheeks or chinless chins.
The operation requires a sur

“So far,” he commented in an
interview, “We have found it in

body. Tests on humans and ani
mals show it has no more harm
ful effect on the body than air.”
He adds that it will not produce
irritation to cells, major cause of
cancer.

movie people has led him into the

Legislature Would Boost
License Tax on Trucks
JUNEAU, W)—Identical bills to
boost the license tax rates sharp
ly on heavy trucks were intro
duced in both the House and
Senate of the Alaska Legislature
Tuesday. The proposal would per
mit the rates on trucks to range
from $15 to $485, whereas under
the present law the limits are $15
and $75. It would also establish
a graduated scale of 23 weight
categories instead of the present
three.
The measure was the only one
introduced in the Senate during
the day while seven were brorught
into the House. Reps. Coghill and
Wilbur, Fairbanks Republicans,
introduced a bill penalizing cruel
ty to animals and Representative
McKinley, Anchorage Republican,
one to create a Territorial veter
inarian and provide for the licens
ing of veterinarians.
Albert White Denies
Masterminding Reeve
Recommendation
MONROVIA, Calif., UP)—Albert
White yesterday denied “master
minding” the recommendation erf
Robert C. Reeve, Anchorage air
way operator, for the governor
ship of Alaska.
There had been talk at Alaska’s
capital that members of the Re
publican Central Committee con
ferred by long-distance telephone
with White before voting to re
commend Reeve to new Interior
Secretary McKay.
“If I could have masterminded
the central committee in Alaska,
I would have masterminded it for
myself,” White said in yesterday’s
interview. I never called any of
the committee members on the
question.”
Gov. Names Mrs. Cameron
To Board of Education
■JUNEAU —Gov. Gruening sent
his first batch of territorial board
appointment to the Senate last
week—including a former Demo
cratic legislator picked for the
University of Alaska board of
regents.
The latter was Mrs. Essie Dale
of Fairbanks. Her appointment
likely will stir controversy with
the almost solid Republican dele
gation from the Fourth Division.
Reappointed as chairman was
Andrew Nerland of Fairbanks.
Elmer Rasmuson, Anchorage
banker, was named to the regents.
The governor appointed Mrs.
Emma Cameron of Nome and
Mrs. Elizabeth Myser of Ketchi
kan to the territorial board of
education. i
All appointm'ents are subject to
confirmation by a joint session of
the legislature.
