unsound, Professor Phillips, who favors statehood, said that the argument was unfounded.
“Alaska industries bring in more wealth each year than those of many states.'" Professor Phillips said.
“It is true that much of her prosperity is coming from the wide spending of the government for defense and the development of Alaskan industry.
Huge Profits
“Development of Alaskan Industry has in the past reaped huge profits, however, and there is no reason to suspect that further de* velopment will not continue to bring profits in excess of the amount spent for development,” he added
“As for Alaskan political stability, it is evident that many illiterate Alaskan Eskimos are incapable of showing sound judgment in selecting political candidates. Shyster politician might use these people to gain their goals. But this threat to good government could possibly be eliminated if the Eskimos were handled in the same way the Indian program is.
Eskimo Administration
“This E>kimo administration would bo in the hands of the Department of Interior, but as it is now the Department of Interior has control of the entire area in conjunction with the military. T h i s i aontrol is actually slowing up the development of Alaska in many instances because of the department's red-v'po obstructions.' said Professor Phillips.

rBy a one vote margin, the U. S. ken ate yesterday sent the statehood bill back to the Interior and iisular Affairs committee. This in [ffect killed the bill, or at least tuc©05'.holed it.
Western Senators Favor I It was noted in the voting that Western Senators were generally in avor of statehood while the Southerners and Easterners were opposed lo it.
Ir. the 45-44 vote, party politics k ere of no consequence as 25 Demo-•ratvS and 20 Republicans cast their ial'ots against 24 Democrats and SO Republicans.
‘•Southerners, in fighting Alaska's petition for statehood, want lo maintain their one-third membership in the Senate by keeping klaska out. said Professor Phillips.
“Their one-third membership is herv influential when the Southerners are filibustering against a >il! proposed by another section of ihe country Southerners also wield the one-third membership block as I deciding factor in the ratification of treaties by the Senate." laid Professor Phillips.
Similar Interests
“Western senators’ stand, in at-rmpting to push the bill through |he Senate, probably is hinged upon wlnciding interests of the West poast and Alaska This is true in heir industries and defense situ-Ition." commented Professor Har-
