The Washington Merry - Go- Round By DREW PEARSON (Copyright, 1949, by Bell Syndicate, Inc.) ASHINGTON— President Tru- man doesn’t nurse grudges against most of his political enemies, but he has a few pet peeves that ap- parently he will never forget. One of them is gaunt, gray Bernard Baruch, the friend of Presidents, and one of the nation's few elder statesmen. One year ago Baruch declined Truman’s invitation to serve on a speoial committée to support his re- election, and Truman, in turn, wrote Baruch one of the most caus- tic letters of the campaign. He reminded him; among other things, how he had appointed his brother Herman as Ambassador to Holland. Sequel came the other day when | ™ the President tried to persuade his old friend, Adm. William D. Leahy, to become Ambassador to Holland. “You know how I feel about that old so-and-so, Baruch,” said Mr. Truman. “He still has his brother over there in Holland as Ambassa- dor and I want you to take his (Continued on Page Four) Sales Tax Is Voted, Sitka SITKA, Alaska, Sept. 13.—P— Sitka went to the polls Sfonday and voted for the two per cent sales tax, 251 for and 60 against. The voters turned down a longer term for mayor and council by a vote of 138 for but 175 against. Before the election the public ap- peared apathetic on the sales tax and the only campaign for rati- ication was carried oh gratis by Bob DeArmond and Jack Calvin, owners of the Sitka Printing Com- pany, who issued and broadcast over $100 worth of posters and fliers, most of which were removed surreptitiously as fast as posted, indicating some opposition to the measure although no one openly advocated its defeat. If the mea- sure had been defeated, property taxes would inevitably "had to be raised. HOUSING IS VITAL T0 ALASKA'S FUTURE, SAYS CONGRESSMAN Congressman Hugh B. Mitchell of Washington spoke today of the “high cost of lack of housing in Alaska.” At the Rotary Club luncheon at the Baranof Hotel, he said he had seen on his Alaska trip “the defi- nite need of more housing to help the armed forces meet defense commitments.” Lack of housing is also keeping many skilled would-be settlers from staying in Alaska, he said. Mitchell, who passed through Juneau Friday on the journey north with Secretary for Air W. Stuart Symington, has spent the time since investigating militairy and civilian housing in Alaska for the House Banking and Currency Sommittee. He said he had been instructed by the chairman of the committee fo see what prospects are of the $10,000,000 revolving fund for the Alaska Housing Authority meeting] the needs of the Territory. He pointed out that lack of hous- ing is hampering Alaskan develop- ment. “Of all the civilians and members | of the Armed Forces I met on this trip, not one had a bad word for Alaska,” he said. “Yet most of them will return to the states when their tours of duty are up. Bug in the ointment is lack of housing.” He said that while Federal aid to housing will be a help, he sees a great opportunity for the estab- lishment of a housing industry in Alaska by Alaskans. He said he recognizes that the development of Alaska is vital not only to Seattle tut to the whole United States. ~ Arriving from Anchorage yester- day, Mitchell met today with AHA. Mitchell promised to collaborate closely with Delegate E. L. (Bob) Bartlett in Washington—*“as I have in the past.” He was to leave for Seattle by Pan American Airways this after- noon. At the Rotary Club luncheon, the matter of a public picnic ground on the new Nugget Creek road was brought up, and a committee was assigned to plan the picnic ground in conjunction with the Forest Service. The picnic ground would be near Mendenhall Glacier. Guests at the meeting included Dr. W. W. Beatty, Director of Edu-~ cation, Bureau of Indian Affairs, and Mayor Z. L. Loussac of An- chorage. FOREST BLAZE FOUGHT ON ADMIRALTY ISLAND A Forest Service fire-fighting crew was sent yesterday to Mitchell Bay on Admiralty Island to fight a small blaze in the forest there. The Ranger Six, a Forest Service craft skippered by Clarence Witta- nen, was also hurried to the scene, and a pumping engine was flown The fire was reported by wire from Angoon by Elmer Garnes, who lives near the town. Forest Service officials here had no further news of the size of the blaze. ANCHORAGE VISITOR H. D. ‘Harla of Anchorage is a guest at the Baranof. BOLDDARE | T0 RUSSIA IS MADE Announced by Tito's Chief Spokesman | BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, Sept. 13 —(M—Yugoslavia dared Russia to- day to take her complaints against this country to the United Nations. Moshe Pijade, one of Premier Marshal Tito’s top-ranking spokes- {men, said in an article in the offi- cial newspaper, Borba: “Yugoslavia will have nothing to lose.” Pijade’s blast, latest troadside in the war of words [etween the Kremlin and Tito’s regime, was touched off by an article in the Russian foreign policy weekly, New Times, which had accused Yugo- slavia of duplicity in her dealings with neighbor Albania, Tito, meanwhile, has read Russia a lesson from her own history books, warning he intends to build Socialism in one country without ! coaching from the Kremlin. “So- cialism in one country” once was the announced goal of Premier Stalin, SULLYS RETURN FROM BUSINESS, PLEASURE TRIP ALONG COAST Mr. and Mrs. Henry S. Sully re- turned Sunday from a trip to the States. He attended furniture shows in Seattle and San Francisco ‘uying a stock of new furniture and lamps for the Juneau-Young Hardware. “There has been a considerable improvement in the design and workmanship of furniture since the end of the war,” he said. After the business trip was com- pleted, the Sullys visited the former Juneauites, Mr. and Mrs. John Young in Carmel, California. Sully said that in the last 60 days busi- ness on the coast was above what it was in the .same period of last year. The trip up and down the coast was made by car and the Sullys are glad to be back. ANOTHER GRANDCHILD FOR THE MATT HALMS Mr. and Mrs. Matt Halm have received the glad news of the birth of a third child to their son and wife, Mr. and Mrs. John (Kay) Halm.

Yugoslaviaioadside Is| JUNEAU, ALASKA, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1949 Symington to Seek Millions for Alaska Work MULLANEY TAKES WITNESS STAND IN TRAP TAX SUIT Defense of Territorial Tax Commissioner Opens With His Testimony With his side—the Territory ot Alaska—up at bat, Attorney Gen- eral J. Gerald Williams called Tax Commissioner M. P. Mullaney to the stand this morning, in the fifth day of the fishtfap tax hearing. Mullaney is defendant in the suit brought by P. E. Harris and Com- pany, with three partners in the Mutual Trap Company as inter- venors. The firms seek a perma- tion of the fishtrap tax, as increased by the 1949 Legislature, and a ruling that the act, Chapter 11, is null and void. Partners in the Mutual firm are August Buschmann, W. Laurence Freeburn and A. P. Wolf, all of Seattle. The firm operates three fishtraps, and is not engaged in canning or other allied activity. Attorney R. E. Robertson of Ju- neau presented the case for the in- tervenors. Co-counsel is Edward W. Allen of Seattle. Much time was taken up today in entering reports and other docu- ments as defendant’s exhibits, with Tax Commissicner Mullaney firm and outspoken in his capacity as a { witness. Evidence includes Terri- torial tax returns of the Harris and Mutual comparies, and analyses and summaries Mullaney said are tased on their returns. Against frequent objection to ad- missibility by Attorney W. C. Arnold for both plaintiff and inter- venors, and questions by Judge George W. Folta for clarification, defendant’s presentation slowly got under way. Both Harris and Mutual rested | their cases an hour after court con- vened this morning, when Paul O. Nielsen, C.P.A., of Moss Adams and Cgmpany, Seattle, returned to the stand for further cross-examination. Nielsen, Mutual Company’s only witness, was cross-examined on tender service and price differen- tials between trap-caught and seine-caught salmon. Two Territorial oineials called by the Harris Company had preceded him on the stand yesterday after- noon. Dr. James C. Ryan, Com- missioner of Education, and Assist- ant Auditor Neil F. Moore were questioned on the solvency of the Territory, as the Harris Company attorney tried to show that the Territory had legislated the fish-~ trap tax when unable to meet its obligations. Through cross-exami- nation, Attorney General Williams pointed out that the Territory has some $1,500,000 in excess of current outstanding vouchers, most of it earmarked for other than running expenses. This is the third court test of 1949 tax legislatioq, other suits hav- ing concerned the income tax and the increased license fees levied on non-resident fishermen, HARVEY CARNET IS FOUND DEAD, CABIN FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Sept. 13— (A—Harvey Carnet, 50, long-time Alaska resident, was found dead of a heart attack Sunday in his homestead cabin 28 miles from here.

MEMBER ASSOCIATED PRESS BIG STEEL FIRM ACCEPTS TRUMAN'S PEACE PROPOSALS 'Other Concerns in Industry | Line Up - Strike May Not Occur PITTSBURGH, Sept. 13—(P— Jones and Laughlin Steel Corpora- tion, the nation’s No. 2 steel pro- ducer, today accepted the Presi- dential board’s peace plan “as a basis for collective bargaining.” “We are prepared,” said a J. and L. statement, “to undertake at once a joint study of pensions with our steelworkers' unions in antici- pation of bargaining on this sub- ject beginning March 1 next. “With respect to social insurance benefits, we will negotiate with the lunion for, the purpose of reaching a mutually acceptable agrreement.” STEEL FIRMS LINE UP PITTSBURGH, Sept. 13. —(P— Big Steel started lining up today | behind the Presidential board’s formula for peace in America’s basic industry. There won't be any steel strike for the next 11 days—and maybe none at all. The wage dispute that threatened to tie the nation in economic knots apparently is head- ed for a happy solution. President Truman is “highly gratified” about the whole thing. CIO United Steelworkers and six major steel producers agreed to extension of the strike truce at re- quest of the chief executive. The truce expires at midnight tonight. It will continue to Sept. 25. The steelworkers also accepted recommendations of the President’s steel fact finding board even though it meant giving up a fourth round wage increase. "“The President 15 highly grati- fied,” said the White House. “He is very much pleased with the way things have developed up to now.” Republic Steel Corporation o Cleveland, the nation’s No. 3 pro- ducer, was the first to announce willingness to bargain pensions as recommended by the Presidential board in a 10-cent hourly packagv not including wages. Then No. 2 producer—Jones and Laughlin Steel Corporation of Pitts- burgh—followed suit, accepting the peace plan “as a basis for collec- tive bargaining.” The Wall Street Journal at the same time said only “a slight in-| crease” in labor costs will result if the recommended social insurance program is put into effect. ‘The newspaper adq;d that most steel companies now have some form of group life insurance but less than half have company financed acci- dent, sickness and hospital and sur- gical benefits. The men who make steel will have to be satisfied with the av- erage $1.65 an hour they now re- ceive. The union won three in-| creases totalling 46 cents since the end of World War II. Maurice J. Tobin, Secretary of Labor, predicted the steel-workers’ ecceptance of the board findings will result in “national prosperity such as this country has rarely known.” Tobin made the prediction at Kansas City where he spoke at a building dedication. Stratocruisers Are Planned by NA, Oriental Run SEATTLE, Sept. 12 — @ — A Northwest Airlines official said to- day the firm hopes to start using big Boeing Stratocruisers on the Orient run, via Anchorage, Dec. 1.

Hirt White's mother lives in Bellingham, FINANCIERS SAY DEVALUE FOREXPORTS Bankers' AMe Aimed at Britain - Truman fo Talk Off Cuff By STERLIN F. GREEN and JOHN M. HIGHTOWER WASHINGTON, Sept. 13—(#— The International Monetary Fund today advised dollar-short countries to devalue their currencies, if need be, to boost their dollar-earnings exports. Without singling out the British pound but with Britain’s dollar crisis obvicusly in mind, the report was laid before the opening session today of the fourth annual meeting of the Boards of Governors of the multi-billion dollar fund and World Bank. Shortly thereaiter, exe financial leaders of the 48 member nations were to hear an off-the-cuff ad- dress by President Truman, It may be better for a country to change an “unsuitable” exchange rate than to clamp on restrictions which “endanger its welldeing and efficiency,” said the report of the fund’'s executive directors. Although the document referred to all “deficit nations,” its effect was to spotlight the British prob- lem—and to add pressure to numerous past suggestions for sterling devaluation. The impact was the greater be- cause a cabinet-level British-U.S.- Canada conference ended yesterday with agreement on a ten-point treatment for Britain's dollar ills— revaluation of the pound as one of the points. Injundiion Is Granted, Give-Away Programs CHICAGO, Sept. 13—(®—A tem- porary injunction restraining the FCC from banning give-away pro- grams on the air was granted today by Federal Judge Michael L. Igoe. The stay order will prevent the Federal Communications Commis- sion ban from going into effect Oct. 1 as scheduled. The injunction will remain in effect until a suit attacking the ban is decided in a Federal Court in New York. This :uit was filed by the CBS, ABC and NBC. The Federal Communications Commission had banned such pro- grams effective Oct. 1. Subse- quently, the Columbia Broadcasting Company, the National Broadcast- ing Company and American Broad- casting Company filed suit in New York challenging the order. Judge Igoe's ruling puts the issue in the lap of the New York court. Until the point is settled there, the mushrooming give-away programs can go their lush way. The injunction was ohtaineed by Radio Features, Inc, a Chicago firm that produces syndicated radio programs: The firms claimed the order would cause it “irreparable damage.” STORIS RETURNS FROM EMERGENCY RUN T0 AID PACKER STIMSON The Coast Guard Cutter swm returned to Juneau last night at 7 o'clock from an emergency &all to Cross Sound to aid the fish packer Stimson with barge in tow. Late Sunday evening, the Storis recei's>d a call that the Stimson was in danger. Upon arriyal at Cross Sound, it was discovered that the packer had water in its fuel line. The fishing boat Totem skip- pered by Ralph Morteson had been ordered by the Stimson to give assistance. With the engine in running order, the Stimson went to Elfin Cove to make further repairs. Meanwhile the barge was hung on the rocks one mile east of the Cape Spencer light station. The barge later broke loose and went adrift. At 8 o'clock yesterday morning, the iStoris located the barge drifting seaward. The Storis contacted the Totem and the barge was taken in tow fty the fishing vessel to Elfin, Cove, 'GLOBAL AFFAIRS T0 BE DISCUSSED BY BRITAIN, U.S. |Problem Aimed at Main- faining Unified Stand Against Commies (By the Associated Press) Britain and the United States begin talks today on global political problems aimed at maintaining & unified stand against Russian Com- munism. Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin and Secretary of State Dean Ache- son in their talks in Washington will deal with British and Ameri- can Far Eastern policy in view of the Chinese Communist advance. They will also take up problems of | Germany, Tito’s split with the Kremlin, and the Atlantic Defense System under the North Atlantic Treaty. The way for the political talks was paved ((y an apparent success- ful conclusion of a British-Cana- dian-American conference on Brit- ain’s economic crisis. Leaders of the three powers at the financial talks, ended yesterday, expressed confi- dence ways have been found to stop the drain on Britain's dollar re-| serves. Britain’s dollar position is to be helped by these decisions: 1. Canada and the United States are expected to buy more tin and rubber from Britain for stockpiling. 2. Britain obtained permission to spend Marshall Plan dollars in countries other than the United States. Britaln can now purchase wheat from Canada. 3. Both Canada and the United States have agreed to ease customs regulations. 4. Britain will be free to dis- criminate against US. and, Cana- dian goods in order to bulld up Mr? non-dollar imports. Chinese dispatches said that Com- munist forces are marshalling 140 miles northeast of Canton for a final drive on the provisional Na- tional capital. Troops of Gen.

Work wfll proceed immediately, he said, on construction of a $50,- 000,000 radar sereen in Alaska %o detect enemy planes. He sald Con- gress had approved the expenditure and the money could be taken from other Air Force funds to the work could “start at once.” Targets Stated In his “air frontiers,” Syming- ton said he included all the north ern states. The great industrial center of Detroit, he added, would i be a target in case of war. Rep. ,Hugh Mitchell (D-Wash), in the party, told the Anchorage Chamber of Commerce in an ad- dress his visit had Impressed him with the need for continuity in the Public Works program. He said the $137,000,000 program at present was pigeonholed in the House Armed Services committee. 1T will take back the story, of the | need for continuity,” the Congress- man said, -predicting icting Congress “will recognize the problems and will get the bill through this year.” Housing Great Need “Housing is one of the greatest needs” in Alaska, Symington sald. “Instead of figuring how much money is avallable and planning a program on the basis of money, we must figure how much housing is needed and plan to make the money avallable.” Dishonest Mave He viewed as bordering on dis- honesty the sending .of troops to Alaska and compelling them to live under conditions where rent allow- ances were insufficient. “It isn't right to require that'men dig into their own pockets becase they are assigned here,” he asserted, “espec- ially when the government controls S0 many fitems that make living costs high—such as freight rates. Questicn Why? “Why should the soldier be pen- alized because construction costs are so high that high rents must be charged to support the capital outlay for housing?” p ‘The Secretary sald there was no part of the world “we consider more important to ourselves (the Air Force) and to the United Stafes” than Alaska. “Problems here must be fixed. Housing cannot go on the way it is. I hope to get more practical attention from the pow- ers that be in Washington when I return.” He will remain in the Territory, he said, until Wednesday. The Joint Chiefs of Staff, who are in Kodiak following a visit to Adak, are scheduled to leave Alaska on Thursday. They are due here Wed- nesday. : WALLACE IS NOT CANDIDATE FOR ANY OFFICE NOW NEW YORK, Sept. 13—(P—Henry A. Wallace has decided not to run | for any office this year.
