Seattle, YVasi\ AND ' LAND WITHDRAWALS GLACIER BAY When the question of land withdrawals by the Department of the Interior is under discussion, as far as Juneau is concerned, principal interest is at- tached to the Glacier Bay National Monument This is what we find about Glacier Bay National Monument in a report on the “Land Withdrawals and Reserves Affecting the Territory of Alask: lacier Bay National Monument, reserved by Executive Order No. 3983 of April 1, 1924, covered 2,560,00 acres of land. By proclamation No. 1733 of February 26, 1925, the monument was established to embrace 1,164,800 acres, it having been determined that the scenic area required was within these bound- aries; however, by Proclamation No. 2564 of August 4, 1942, the President rereserved an additional area bringing the total to over two million acres. “This additional e embraces numerous islands and the west shore of Excursion Inlet, all of the Gustavus area, the north shore of Icy Passage, Bartlett Cove, Dundas Bay, Taylor Bay, Graves Har- bor, Murphy's Cove, Dixon Harbor, Lituya Bay, the north shore of North Passage, north Indian Passage and the north shore of Cross Sound reserving in all over 140 miles of Alaska's coast line jor ‘the proper care, management and protection of objects of scienti- fic interest situated on the lands within said monu- ment’.” In view of the fact that the objects of scientific interest in Glacier Bay Monument are glaciers and mountains that have survived some 30,000 years and in view of the fact that the greater portion of the additional reserve lies on the opposite side of a 12.000- ! foot mountain range, it is difficult to understand how islands, bays and inlets extending 140 miles along the rese lhe Washmglon | delaying action so ! son. | nance of peace; be heard until after January when coast line may be used in connection with the pro- | tection of objects within Glacier Bay Monument. The report continues: “The reserved areas in Alaska, as of 1948, are greater in extent than the combined areas of Maine, | New Hampshire, Vermont, Connecticut, Massachu- setts, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Deluware and Virginia of being as large as the State of Texas.” That is just a part of an extensive report on land withdrawals in Alaska, quoted because it refers to our especial area in Southeast Alaska. The extent of the withdrawals alarming, and deserves thuughl. is breathtaking, story Repeats ‘F.’lll‘bi\llks News-Miner) The growing tenseness between the East and the | West has pushed the United Nations to the brink of disaster. Diplomatic talks on the Berlin crisis have broken off. The controversy has been thrown into the UN for solution. News dispatches from Paris warn that Soviet withdrawal from the peace tribunal is a strong possibility. The U.S.S.R. doubtless would be followed in any such action by her satelite powers. The UN would be left an empty shell, without powers or influence. There is in the present situation a grim reminder of the events of the 1930's which marked the destruc- tion of the League of Nations and foreshadowed the coming of the Second World War. The League came into being January 10, 1920, organized chiefly through the efforts of Woodrow Wil- He insisted at the 1919 Paris Peace Conference that the covenant of the League be written into the Treaty of Versailles. Main points of the covenant weré (1) the mainte- (2) the peaceful solution of interna- tional disputes by law, public debate, impartial inves- tigation and conciliation; and (3) international co- operation in general. The similarity to the UN charter is striking. The League consisted originally of 42 member states. By 1928, the number was 54, including Ger- many. Six more nations joined subsequently, bring- | ing the total to an even 60 compared with 38 states in the United Nations. Refusal of the United States to join was the League's first serious blow. But the organization did not begin to fall apart until Japan withdrew, refusing to entertain any question regarding its conflict with China. Soon after Hitler came to power, Germany with- draw. Italy withdrew when the League sought to impose sanctions during the war on Ethiopia. Russia | was expelled because of jts war on Finland. By the time the gray clad Nazi legions marched into Poland, | the League had ceased to exist except as a name. Developments of the next few days may resolve similarly the fate of the United Nations. Diplomats and representatives of the great powers have the center of the world stage as they strive to| prevent a repetition of history. Peoples everywhere. watching anxiously, have a vital stake in the outcome ! of their struggle.
