GOVERNOR MAKES
NEW PROTEST ON
OVERSEAS RATING
Barilett in Agreement with
New Proposals Submit
ted to Army Heads
As a result of discussions with
members of the armed forces whom
he met on his just completed trip
to the Westward and Interior, Gov
ernor Ernest Gruening has made
further protest to the War Depart
ment concerning the exclusion of
Alaska residents in the Army from
overseas discharge credit for service
within the Territory.
Gov. Gruening revealed here to
day that his original protest on the
matter had proposed a zone west of
the 154th meridian, including the
Alaska Peninsula and Aleutian
area, in which overseas credit should
be given. Further conversations with
GI's, he said, have led him to believe
that Alaskan residents should be
placed on an absolutely equal base
with these soldiers who have their
homes in Continental United States
—They receive overseas credit for
service anywhere in Alaska, but
none for service in the United
States proper.
The Governor further stated that
he has communicated with Alaska’s
Di legate to Congress E. L. Bartlett,
who has agreed to the Governor's
mere recent view. Jointly they are
pressing for its acceptance by Army
chiefs.
Alaska Combat Area
Alaska is a combat area, the
Territory’s Chief Executive declared,
it is the only part of the United
States to be actually invaded. Serv
ice stripes and other recognition of
the overseas character of service
within the Territory are given, he
pointed out. Is there any reason
why an Army man who worked on
the Alcan Highway within the Yu
kon Territory, or even much further
south near Edmonton, should receive
credit that is denied to one who
perhaps labored under much more
difficult conditions in more Arctic
areas within Alaska?
To date, the Governor has received
no report of action that lias bebn
taken on his proposals, but he1 is
looking forward to a more sat
isfactory solution than the original
decree by the Army.
Gov. Gruening said his attention
on his trip was divided almost en
tirely between Anchorage and Fair
banks. He went to Anchorage at
first, along with the Alaska Housing
Authority. At Fairbanks he was
mainly concerned with securing the
services of Prof. George W. Gasser,
of the University of Alaska, to head
the Territory’s Department of Agri
culture; in which he was successful,
and for which he is much pleased.
The Governor commended Prof.
Gasser’s knowledge of Alaska agri
cultural conditions in particular and
commented on the high regard in
which the Agricultural Commission
er is generally held.
Health Commissioner
Besides Housing Board affairs.
Gov. Gruening devoted his time in
Anchorage to consummating the ap
pointment of Lt. Col. Earl C. Al
brecht as Alaska’s first full-time
Heath Commissioner, the announce
ment of which appointment was
made yesterday from Anchorage.
Governor Gruening stated that, al
though Dr. Albrecht has been serv
ing as Senior Surgeon at Fort Rich
ardson Hospital, Army authorities
were pleased to permit his release
because they feel he will be able to
do a valuable job for the Territory;
being deeply interested In public
health work and in Alaska’s health
problems. »
The Governor added that, pieced
ing the appointment of Dr. Al
brecht, he had conferred on his
selection with all members of the
Territorial Health Board. Four of
them knew Dr. Albrecht personally
and all were enthusiastic in con
firming his appointment to the post.
Dr. Albrecht is expected to come
to Juneau shortly for consultation
with the present health department
officials, following which the first
meeting of the newly set-up Health
Board will be held, probably within
a few weeks.

POLITICAL HGHI
I' \nON, May 25—Primp Min
ister Churchill was reported map

hari hitting personal tour of vari
ous parts ol Britain as the political
cleat, widened today between his
dcminant Conservative Party and

mit hi sounded the Laborite key
note indicating clean-cut lines for
a b ! on the issues of whether
tltr British wanted a Tory or Labor
Govi rnmant.
H aid the struggle would be
one ot ween private enterprise and
me: ly on the one hand and
Socialism on the other, and pledged
tha' Labor wou'd not again enter

servatives! following the general

as tic possibility faded of a "Bi?
Thr meeting on pressing wortd

Resell s of the election will not be
known until July 27 or 28.
