NATiuNAL REPRESENTATI Pour(h Avenue Bide , Seattle, Wa e ———— Alaska Newspapers, 141} ALASKA COAST GUARD DISTRICT In the news-letter issued by Delegate E. L. Bart- let}, under date of June 3. is interesting information r difig an Alaska Coast Guard District. 'The vari- oud Chambers of Commerce, especially those in South= cagt Alaska, have urged'the establishment of 4 district ! in Alaska. The, following € news-Jetter pertaining to the subject: In general debate on the floor of the House thisy, week, it was revealed that a Coast Guard Board will go to Alaska in the latter part of the summer, to exdmine the proposal for reestablishment of a Coast Guard District for Alaska. This was revealed when the appropriation bill for the Treasury and Post Office departments was being considered which contains funds for the operation of the Coast Guard. “The Coast Guard is leaning toward” reestablishment of the district, according to a statement made by Congressman Canfield, in charge of the bill on the floor, in reply to a question put to him by Delegate Bartlett. “It plans a most intensive survey this summer,” he continued. “It is not certain if a district office is established in the Territory of Alaska that it will go back to Ketchikan. I believe that Juneau, and perhaps other places, are under consideration. Late this summer we will have word from the Coast Guard as to just what is being done.” Congressman Jackson of Washington joined Dele- gate Bartlett in urging that the district, consolidated last year into the Seattle district, be reestablished. He endorsed the Delegate’s statement on the floor, which is produced below in part: “During the hearings on this bill a presentation was made as to the need, even the necessity, for early reestablishment in Alaska of the Coast Guard head- quarters. During the hearings Governor Ernest Gruen- ing, of Alaska, and I testified on that subject We ‘pointed out that a regional office was established in Alaska in 1939, functioned extremely well, with great efficiency. In July of last year that regicnal office was abolished and was consolidated with i:e Seattle office, 750 miles to the south, where there cannot be the same understanding of Alaska needs and Alaska problems as there would be through the operation of an office right in Alaska. Alaska has 26,000 miles of coastline, a longer coastline than the continental United States. When a Coast Guard office is taken out of Alaska and put anywhere else in the United l;e Washinglofi consulted, and advice | Moscow radio W stx movths, in advance, $7.80; | is taken from Delegate Bar!lett'i;‘ f - 4 States, we submit that it is'a prdposifion of thie tall wagging the dog.” Make It 1,000 to 1 (Seattle Post-Intelligencer) The vote—319 to 58—by which the Mundt-Nixon Communist-control bill sed the House of Repre- sentatives was reminiscent of the overwhelming ma- jorities by which the old Dies Committee was sustained year after year in Congress whenever the Communists and so-called “liberals” sought to have it abolished People who understand representative government | should have no difficulty in perceiving the meaning of the long rgerd.

The left-wing strategy is to impound the proposed measure, because of the “pressure” of other business, until Congress adjourns or recesses for the political conventions The remaining days of the session will meanwhile be utilized to incite opposition. That this is the Communist intention is disclosed by the Daily Worker, which on its front page of May 120 exhorted the Communists and Communist following to “send wires, delegations to your-Senators at onge.” But this is a tactic which others may. also employ. For every Communist in the United States there are at least a thousand patriots. 1 Let them send telegrams, letters or delegations to Fheh‘ Senators. For since when have United States Senatars, klected ds Republicans of Democrats to represent their sovereign States, become in any way responsible !or responsive to the Communist Party or to the Polit- buro at Moscow? | wasn't taken. A Welcome Ambassador (New York Times) Seldom has an Ambassador of a foreign nation been so well equipped to deal with the most important, specific business at hand as is Sir Oliver Franks. As a leading figure in the Sixteen-Nation Conference at Paris he came to know, as possibly no other man in Europe, the aims, the possibilities, and the attendant + national responsibilities of the Marshall. European Recovery Program. He may, in a sense, be regarded as almost a co-author of that program. His detailed | knowledge of European resources, viewpoints and pres- | ent psychology of the peoples we are trying to help’ will be immensely valuable in Washington. Sir Oliver is a philosopher by profession, which must have stood him in good stead, as his ship was held outside the harbor for many hours by fog. The Second World War brought him out of the academic life at Glasgow University, where he occupied the Chair of Moral Philosophy. He proved to be a start- ingly gifted administrator, and when the war ended was Permanent Secretary of the Minister of Supply and Aircraft Production. Despite the pleas of govern- ment leaders, he returned to scholastic life when called to be Provost of Queens College, Oxford. He !has been in this country on several occasions, was a (visiting professor at Chicago University for a year in 1935 and so, while new to diplomatic office, has had ia chance to know us unofficially, which may be a good | way to start. | | These are not easy times in which Sir Oliver will |represent his country in Washington. He is in a | positicn to be of great service to us as well as to | Great Britain. We look forward to knowing him better, and to a better understanding of the many problems on which he can, from time to time, throw | light and give the benefit of his counsel. | hen he was, his urged to write to President Tru-| man before they went to bed . . .| propagandizers | Thousands did Various am- | E JUNE 11 Hawley Sterling Earle Osborne Douglas Gray Robert Geyer Fred Eastaugh Joé Riedi Margarét Ann nye Karen Bartness evtecscccccnce S0secss00000a ¢ . 00 00 forms swe out after Ogtobery and | Admiral Ewen will push:a drive to colleet them for European relief. | Well-earhedsreward: to.

Special attention will be given to properties carrying base ores, such as copper, lead, zinc and antimony, which metals are now in great demand and which are bringing excéptionally high prices!| Special efforts will also be made to encourage the search for ores of uranium and related ‘minerals for which high premiums are now be- ing offered by the Atomic Energy Commission. From Petersburg, Mr. Fowler will proceed to Ketchikan, which will be his temporary headquarters for sev- eral weeks.
