Interr Treasurer Oscar G.

Yet, that's where they dumpe When Senator Norman R Walke ther of the Alaska Veterans Fund law, repeated Treasure Olson, in effect: Has there always been enough mone; in the treasury to leave the Veterans Fund intact! Olson, though stressing that no warrant drawn agains the Veterans Fund has yet been refused, finally ad mitted that a situation could have arisen wherein the entire ameunt of the Veterans Fund balance could n h been paid off had it been demanded That situation should not be allowed to occur unde any circumstances. The people of A ayin the Veterans Tax so that money will be ther That same sitnation stresses the second of ou points. At the end of last year ska's treasury wa in its most critical condition.

General MacArthur, in his first direct personal intervention in Nip- penese labor disputes, ordered the Leftist labor leaders to cancel their call for a strike tomorrow of all Government employees. The walk- out, in support of demands for triple current wages and as a pro- test against continuance of Pre- mier Yoshida and his Conservative Cabinet, would have crippled ser- 1ously if not halted transportation, communications, utilities and other services. The Government double wages. MacArthur said the strikes would have violated his directive against activities detrimental to the occupa- tion _Two hours later, Emperor Hiro- hito invested a reorganized Cabinet which included six newly appointed Conservatives.
