Ickes accused the Agriculture Department, through the Forest Service, of trying to grab timber lands belonging to the Indians. He asserted that great stretches of the Tongass National Forest belong to the Indians and that their ownership rights were con- firmed in the Indians by the Interior Department in 1945. The Agriculture Department, rogantly proposes to overrule this Interior Department Actually, the Department of Agriculture, in asking | Congress to pass a law authorizing the Forest Service to sell the timber, did what Mr. Ickes failed to do Ickes did not go to Congress when he decided to hold hearings for the purpose of awarding huge land areas in Alaska to Indians for their exclusive use. Neither did he go to the courts. He took the law into his own hands and proceeded to award rights right and left, his actions based only upon the opinions of his solicitors and legal advisors. He held several hearings in Alaska, after notifying the Indians to present their claims, and proceeded | to parcel out the land which the United States bought | from Russia in 1867.

There is relief that the Soviet has decided not to boycott the conference and thus automatically intensify the cleavage between western Europe and the Soviet bloc of states. There is concern regarding what may lie behind the de- cision, an uncertainty bred by Russian moves in the past when apparent co-operation turned out to be a course of delay and obstruction Moscow has given no indication of what to expect, but a Polish suggestion that each nation should de- termine its own needs and that care should be taken | that any aid obtained from the United States should not be tied with any political string is considered to {be closely in line with Soviet thinking. The first of Ithese suggestions clearly is contrary lo the Marshall The Rus! thesis, which was that piecemeal nation by nation, was unsatisfactory; that should de- : termine its over-all needs for relief rehabilitation; that as done the United States would see what help it could give. On the face of it this should be a relatively simple matter. It did not take the British and French Foreign Ministers more than a few hours i to hit upon a workable plan, that of letting a United Nations commission handle the technical details. Then, however, they agreed with Secretary Marshall that Russia should have a chance to come in. Rus now has accepted that invitation, but Europe will, sit with fingers crossed until the motive of the accept- | ance becomes clear. i when this Why Should \\e Help" (Cincinnati Enduirer) is the greatest guardian of peace. is fertile soil for advo- Contentment ' A land lacking contentment cates of change through violence.
