Just as the Fuehrer in those days harped on the theme that Germany was being conspired against by East and West, Franco is doing the same thing today, except he places the greater blame for Europe’s present ills on the prewar and postwar policies of the Western Powers. | He was more lenient in his criticism of the United States, however, a fact which can be explained by his desire to gain diplomatic recognition in full. In one place, for example, he stated that the foreign policies of the Western FPowers which brought about the last war handed the greater part of Europe to the Rus- sians despite an American policy of good will; further, that Spain was linked to Latin America by sentiment ‘Lhe United Nations, he is in no position to call the turn on anything. For the present, that would seem just as well. He has some rectifying of conduct to do on his own sccre. After all, he is the one who Prestdens | “wants in.” More Trend (Anchorage News) Other observers of the political trend in Alaska have noticed the swing away from the Gruening ad=- ministration as the News pointed out in this column a few days ago. Most recent to novice the change is the Alaska Weekly, whose editor Earl Knight watches the Alaska picture from his office in Seattle as closely as the most ardent territorial resident. Mr. Knight wrote in his last issue: “There have heen times in the past, as our reader may have noticed, in which our thinking has not been in full accord with that of our contemporary Bob Atwood of the Anchorage Times. In his issue of 1} 24, however, there appears an editorial with the main thesis of which we can find no bdsis of disagreement. While we do not agree with all the statements and | inferences contained therein, he ably proves the con- tention carried in his editorial title, ‘Democrats Are Failing in Their Stewardship.’ 1 “We believe it was Emerson who said, ‘Consisiency is the hobgoblin of little minds,’ and we are plm.scd‘ to note that Publisher Atwood has removed any doubts | which may have existed concerning the caliber of his thinking equipment and do as neat a journalistic right- about-face as has come to our notice in many years. “While at no place in his indictment does he commit the sacrilege of naming his hero of yesterday, Governor Gruening, it is difficult to square his attack on the Democratic administration without assuming that he does not wholly approve the undoubted czar of that administration. “There are carping critics among the people of Anchorage who say that Publisher Atwood is very much displeased with the handling of the matter of the Deépartment of Public Welfare and that the sudden awareness that all is not well in Juneau stems from | that displeasure . But we choose to believe that Brother | Atwood has at long last become sted with the record of the Gruening machine and has the courage to say so in spite of his past wholehearted support of | that organization.” E An old-timer can remember when the Government | gave the farmer a few packages of garden seed in- stead of a hatful of subsidy checks. | Many a person has got burned in the stock market | by picking up a hot tip. !

With her sister ship, the Princess Mar- guerite, prior to the war she ran regularly between Vancouver and cattle as two of the finest ships the coastal trade. With the advent of the last world war they were commissioned to enter war service, and after being fitted out with the necessary guns ir Victoria, B.C., they both steamed cut of the harbor to their great adventure. For cne vessel, the war spelt doom. The Princess Marguerite was torpedoed by an Italian su-marine | in the Mediterranean, but the Kathleen came through her war cervice without a scratch. In the cpring of 1946 she again steamed ) Victoria harbor from England, baving circumvented the globe in her travels.

When Brynes arrived Acheson went to the airport to meet him and, while driving home, Jimmie casually mentioned his forthcom- ing broadcast. “What broadcast?”| asked Acheson. Byrnes told him.
