John H. Towers, com- mander of the Pacific Fleet, de- clared today. The Admiral discussed the new, dollar-saving plan in an interview. Towers is one of a group of Naval officers who believes that the Navy as well as the Fed government is facing an inevitable period of retrenchment in expendi- tures and that the time has come to plan for the future along these lines. Building Guam into a strong Nav- al outpost guarding the United States from attack from the west is the immediate goal of the Pac- ific command. | But Towers sald the program he fayored would cost only a fraction of the $1,000,000000 which some sources have estimated would be spent in the next five years to build Guam into “another Pearl Harbor.” “We are re-studying the whole situation,” he said, “to the end that we can revise our plans along realistic lines.” - TWO SUFPLY BOATS HERE Two small boats hdve arrived in Juneau with supplies for mer- chants. M. S. Commonwealth, converted sailing schooner under Capt. P. J. Smith, unloaded late this morning at the Cold Storage dock a cargo of about 125 tons of general merchandise, - including quantities of meat. M. S. Alma, skippered” by Hans Peterson, ar- rived last night with a cargo and sailed South again this morning. -eo — HOLBROOKS GO SOUTH Mr. and Mrs. Wellman Holbrook left for the South on the Princess Louise and expect to be Out- side for several months. They took their auto with them and will do much traveling in it. The Washington/ Merry - Go- Round By DREW PEARSO WASHINGTON — Elections are just a little like wars. After they are over we ought to sit down and take stock of things and see how we can improve the countr I am not at all sure that we have done enough stock-taking lately. Perhaps a lot of us have taken our country too much for granted. But the boys who were out fight- ing for their country have been doing a lot of thinking. When you're sitting out in foxholes or lying in a hospital tent, you have to think; and sometimes I won- der if it wouldn't be a good thing if our more extreme politicians, capitalists and labor leaders were put in just such a positioh — so ihey could do more thinking, too. Along this line, I received a let- ter the other day from a young Marine, John McCulloch of Woost- eF, Ohio, which struck me as so godd that I am going to publish part of it. “You see,” writes John McCul- loch, “I never realized before I r ceived my discharge from the Marines what a hell of a condi- tion our country is in today. Of course, I ran up against some [)ret—i ty disgusting examples while in’ the service, but I thought our govern- ment could handle the situation in due time. “Since I have returned to the States, it is hard for me to com- prehend how messed up the situ- ation has become. It isn't neces- sarily the strikes, black markets, ete., that worry me. But what does worry me is the fact that our Government doesn’t seem able to cope with the problems. “Today the word politics is syn- onymous with graft. People speak the word with disgust, and usually mistrust the men associated with it. Actually, we should be very proud of politics and respect the men connected with 'it.

Johnson would call for the blanket entry of all five, including Soviet-sponsored Al- bania and Outer Mongolia. If, under that situation, Russia should persist in vetoing the ad- mission of Portugal, Ireland and Trans-Jordan, it anticipated that the United States then would was return to its policy of voting iagainst Albania and Outer Mon- golia individually Both those countries failed to muster the necessary seven of the eleven coun- ,cil votes in the initial discussior i On the Spanish question the United States delegation merely de- cided to adhere to its stand for !condemnation of the Madrid Gov- ernment, but in opposition to any ‘action such as a worldwide break .in relations. -~ OMEN GIV 'MOOSE W | MOOSEHEART HOME The Women of the Moose gave a (linen shower for Mooseheart, the fchildren’s home and school in !Indiana sponsored by the Moose ILodge, at their meeting held last inight.

CITY MERCHANTS PLAN MASS MEET TCNIGHT AT EIGHT All merchants of Juneau are in- vited to be present at a public meeting of the Juneau Merchants Association this evening at 8 o'clock in the Gold Room of the Baranof Hotel. There will be a complete discus- sicn . of the present strike situation, and of the arrangements so far completed by the JMA executive beard with the Briggs Steamship Company. J. B. Briggs, P dent of the line, is planning to start 10-day service to Southeast Alaska from Prince Rupert soon after Decem- ber 1, using one unrefrigerated power barge. The company's sec- be undergoing in- stallation of *refrigerating equip- ment; and when that is complet- ed, he will replace the first barge. When both are remodeled, Briggs plans to give five-day service to Ketchikan and Juneau, with alter- ond barge will nate service on a 10-day basis to Skagway and Sitka. | Briggs, who is aiming for a 10 cent reduction in shipping costs under present charges for freight from Seattle, is using all union labpr on his barges, and expects no fifficulties with union authori- ties on that score. Juneau long-! shoremen have given assurances that they would handle all power barges, as they have been doing with ©o'h these and small boats runiiing from Seattle, . In addition to the icwer freight rates for goods shipped via Prince Rupert, buyers will not have to pay storage or drayage charges as is necessary in Seattle. Goods will be sent by rail direct from puying points in the Midwest, or from ~eattle, and loaded onio the barges in Prince Rupert from the freight cars. Longshoremen in British Colum- bia are not on strike. asked JMA for his shipping servic minated against after the present emergency, and it has been given. JMA has sent a letter stating in effect that the Briggs company will be treated on an equal basis with all other ship- ping companies touching at Ju- neau. If his rates ave lower, and his service more efiiclent, he will course get the business; but JMA has not, and does not plan as- Briggs has surances that will not be dis preferential treatment for any ship- per. The fact that which is preparing service, its Briggs’ to transfer n headquarters to Juneau in the near , Lo future, will not be interrupted such a degree by strikes gives it a definite advantage.
