New Statehood Bill Comes Up Tomorrow
Page 7
Washington—(U.P.)—A bill calling for admission of Hawaii as the 49th state of the Union will be introduced tomorrow on the opening day of the new Congress.
The measure, sponsored by Mrs Joseph R. Farrington, Republican delegate from Hawaii, will touch of a new fight over not only the admission of the Pacific Island but also o Alaska.
Mrs. Farrington wants Hawaii statehood legislation handled separately but there will be demands for a package bill providing simultaneous admission of both territories.
But in the House the enabling legislation ran afoul of Democratic resistance on simultaneous admission of both territories and White House refusal to sanction immediate state-bood for Alaska.
The Hawaii-Alaska cause carried farther than ever before in the 83rd Congress and came within a tantalizing, parliamentary inch of fulfillment.
Rep, Clair Engle, (D-Calif) and Sen, James E. Murray (D-Mont), statehood supporters who are slated to head the House and Senate Interior committees in the new Congress, have already promised to make the Hawaii and Alaska bills early, priority business.
The Senate last year for the first time—and by a smashing 57 to 28 vote—okayed the two Pacific territories to become the nation's first off-shore state.
But they must overcome obstacles similar to those which stalled their pro-statehood Republican predecessors in the 83rd Congress. Also, the November elections both on the mainland and in the territory, appear to have further complicated the picture.

Raw minerals valued at an estimated $456 million were produced in Kansas during 1954—breaking all previous annual records for the fifth consecutive year, according to an estimate released yesterday by the State Geological survey.
Raw Minerals Record Set
This represents an increase of $30 million in one year and $100 million in five years. The worth of raw mineral products for 1954 is $6½ times the value recorded for 1934. This 20-year upward trend has been tempered recently by a move toward stabilization.
The mineral fuels oil and gas are the key minerals in the state's mineral production climb. Their value increase during 1954 about equalled the total gain for all minerals. Petroleum, valued at an estimated $330 million for 1954, was up about 7 per cent and natural gas jumped about $37 $\frac{1}{2}$ million in 1953 to $45 million in 1954 (an increase of 25 per cent). Natural gasoline and liquefied petroleum gases climbed from $13 million to $13 $\frac{1}{2}$ million during 1954. Coal production was down about 23.5 per cent.
Nonmetallics on the whole reflect steadiness in production, claiming little more than an overall million-dollar gain in the past year. The estimated $33.6 million the Geological survey credits to this category for 1954 was broken down to cement, $22 million; clay and clay products, $8.5 million; salt, $7.8 million; sand and gravel, $5.5 million, and stone, $12.5 million.
University Daily Kansan
The $3.5 million for zinc and lead produced during the year was slightly less than that for 1953. Miscellaneous raw mineral production (gypsum, volcanic ash, natural cement, diatomaceous marl) at $2.5 million for 1954, remained about the same as that for 1953.

A more liberal reciprocal trade agreement program is one such example. Mr. Eisenhower plans to ask for a three-year renewal of this program with new authority to cut tariffs. This idea was initiated by the Democrats 20 years ago and it still gets more support from Democratic ranks than it does from the GOP.

The President also probably will find greater sympathy among Democrats than he did among Republicans for additional public housing units, and for revision of the Taft-Hartley law.
On the other hand, the Democrats are expected to resist his proposal for higher first-class postal rates, and for Hawaiian statehood without simultaneous Alaskan statehood. The last congress pushed through a bill increasing the pay of federal civil service and postal workers without an increase in mail rates. Mr. Eisenhower vetored the bill.
Democrats succeeded in linking Alaskan statehood with Hawaiian statehood in the last Congress. They will be out to do the same thing again. Whether the President would veto a bill providing statehood for both remains to be seen.
All these domestic problems, along with many others, will be discussed by the President in his 6,400-word State-of-the-Union message.

Bookseller Says He Owns Shakespeare's Notebook
London—(U.P.)-Alan Keen said that a book in his possession is Shakespeare and "possibly the world."
An antiquarian bookseller, Mr. Keen has spent 14 years in literary detection trying to establish the identity of the young Elizabethan who made marginal notes similar to speeches in the Shakespeare plays in a history book published in 1550.
Since 1948 he has been convinced that only Shakespeare could have written the notes and now he believes he has evidence which will confirm this theory beyond all doubt.
"I cannot disclose this evidence at this time," he said in his little office in the 300-year-old gatehouse of Clifford's inn, "but it is virtually irrefutable and it will cause a sensation when it is made public."
In 1940 Mr. Keen bought the library of an estate in Lancashire and found among the books a shabby parcel containing old books. One of them was Hall's "The Union of the Two Noble and Illustrious Families of Lancaster and Yorke."
Mr. Keen knew that Hall had been one of Shakespeare's sources and he was "stunned" when he found some 400 marginal notes written as though someone were sketching out the speech of William Shakespeare in an ancient plays, for example the great St. Crispin day speech before Agincourt by Henry II.
After scientists established that the writing was authentically Elizabethan, Mr. Keen set out in earnest to determine whether Shakespeare himself made the notes. Now he says he has the proof.

Library Unit To Give $300
The announcement was made by Robert Vosper, director of libraries and publicity chairman of the association.
The Kansas Library Association has established a $300 scholarship grant to be made available in each year to the most promising applicant, for study at any library school of his choice.
Eligibility is limited to residents of Kansas or persons who have attended college in Kansas. Applicants will be judged on scholarship, interest in the library profession, emotional maturity, and personality.
Deadline for application in 1955,
the first year of the scholarship,
is March 15. Application forms can
be obtained from John Harvey, head
librarian of Porter library at Pitts-
burg, Kan., State Teachers college.
"The Kansas Library association hopes that the recipient will consider seriously taking up his professional career in Kansas and will assist him in finding a satisfactory position within the state." Mr. Vosper said. This is, however, not a specific requirement.
There is a particular need for able young librarians in Kansas, Mr. Vosper said. The library association is concerned with the growing shortage of professionally trained librarians, he said.
According to Mr. Vosper, "professional library schools at universities throughout the country report from three to four good jobs available for every graduate.
