I real ize that most North Carolinians find it difficult to muster up much interest in the proposal to make Alaska a full-fledged state of the union. But I consider this matter extremely important to all of us. As you may know, there is also a move underway to make Hawaii a state of the union. If. Alaska and Hawaii were added to the union, then the United States would of course have, 50 states instead of 48. I am opposed to the proposals — as concern both Alaska and Ha waii. I shall so vote at the proper time. * Alaska is a vast wilderness, Last Time Today >MBBT WTCHUMAVA GARDNER \ \ Z MEIVYN DOUGLAS < > \inrmmunM\ > with LUCILE WATSON.IANIS CARTER News and Cartoon Tuesday- Wednesday Cartoon & Musical 2 Shows Nightly BOX OFFICE OPENS 6:30 Shows. Start At 7 Aad O' i Remember • Children i under 12 in cars F R E E largely undeveloped, with very few people and very little industry. Let’s compare Alaska with North Carolina, just for example. North Carolina has more than 30 times as many people as Alaska. Our area is roughly one-tenth the size of Alaska. Consider the fact that Alaska has only 128.643 people, as one of the last census, living in an area of 586.000 square miles. North Caro lina has more than four million people living in an area of roughly 52,000 square miles. 1 And yet, this so-called Alaska Statehood bill would give to those 128,000 people the same voice in the United States Senate. Alaska and North Carolina each would have two senators. About half of the population of Alaska, I am told, consists of em ployees of our government or their families. It is not hard to imagine that the elections in Alaska could easily be controlled by the Admin istration in power in Washington. To include Alaska as a State would have the same practical effect as giving the administration, whether it be Democratic or Republican, two extra votes in the Senate. There is reason to suspect that a great deal of the interest in Alaska stems from that one fact. I have not been convinced that the people of Alaska really want statehood thrust upon them. There is agitation there, of course, for the measure, but there is plenty of opposition too. At any rate, the Senate agreed last week to vote on whether to send the proposal back to commit tee by Wednesday of this week. When the vote is taken, I think you may be sure that the Southern senators will vote together—to send the statehood bill back to the com mittee for further study. MANY VISITORS Last week was a busy one for our office. We had an unusually large number of visitors. We were able to hear reports from every section of the State. Last Monday, 13 Negro citizens from North Carolina called on me. They were in Washington to at tend a meeting of the National As sociation for the Advancement of Colored People. The group from North Cfyoliryt was very courteous. Mainly they came to obtain answers from me to f6ur questions. I was not able THE DAILY RECORD. DUNN. R. C. Pearson (Continued / From Paige Two) the City, of Long Beach. "There is evidence of substantial I unauthorized use and administra tion of at least a large portion of the granted lands,” The California State Legislature said of the Long Beach tidelands operation Since Long Beach is by far the wealthiest tiedelands development off the Pacific Coast and since California has claimed it, can op erate tidelands oil* more efficiently than the federal government, the above critical report plays squarely into the hands of Secretary of the Interior Oscaf Chapman. Two Texans are now in charge of the nation's income taxes John Dunlap of Dallas, Internal Revenue Commissioner; and Frank Lohn of Brady, in charge of the j highly important intelligence unit. 1 Both are as honest as the Texas praries are broad Martin Dies. the ex-Congressman who started the un-American activities committee, will probably be back in Washington as congressman at large from Texas. Martin indicated he would run for the Senate if someone put up SIOO,OOO in campaign contributions, but there were no takers, so he’ll run for Congress instead .... Eisen hower sentiment is strong in Texas. If nominated, he would probably put Texas in the GOP column for the first time since it voted • for Herbert Hoover Texas Demo crats are quietly organizing a dele gation to the Chicago convention pledged to Governor Shivers as a favorite son not with the idea of nominating Shivers, but in order to block Truman. Most Texans don't believe the Dixiecrat indea will work. to give them the answers they wanted and neither was Senator Hoey. The NAACP wants the Congress to enact federal laws against lynch ing and the poll tax. The organi zation also wants FEPC approved. The other question was related to filibuster; the NAACP wants to ’eliminate the possibility of ifili-. buster. I would not support a federal law against lynching unless the Northerners were willing to in clude their gangster killings. I take the position that lynching is mur der, and that every state has a law against murder. It should of course be enforced by the states. Adding another law would not do any ma terial good. As for FEPC, my views are pretty well known. I. do not think any business ought to have to tolerate some governmental agent deciding whom the business should hire. Since only six states now have the poll tax as a prerequisite to voting, I cannot see the point in a .federal law about that. Any hoW, the poll tax, as I see it/ is •strictly a matter for the states to decide. North Carolina did away with it years ago. And as for filibuster, that is the one remaining instrument held by the South as protection against unwise legislation. The filibuster, however, is good for the nation as a whole. It pre vents the hasty passage of laws which otherwise would be steam rqjled through by the administra tion. It might be well to remember that a majority of the Senate voted to create the right of filibuster. ADDRESSES VIRGINIA DEMOCRATS Saturday night I had the pleas ure of attending and delivering a speech at the Jefferson-Jackson Day dinner at Richmond. They were very cordial and gracious to me in Virginia. There was a rather interesting situation. Virginia’s Governor John Battle introduced me. Governor Battle was bom in North Carolina. I was born in Virginia. Thus the Governor of Anrginia is a native of North Carolina and the Senator from North Carolina is > a native of Virginia. FARM BUREAU INSURANCE John K.
