SECRET MANEUVERS IN BALTIC For the past several days, Associated Press dis- patches have ‘carried stories of the missing U. S. plane over the Baltic. Today The Empire lowing copyrighted story by Drew Pe: immediate release, under the above caption: intelligence sources, According to Scandinavian the Baltic Sea area where the Navy P is one of the most strategic and heavily guarded zones in all the®Russian-controlled world. Here is where the Russians stage secret experi- ments with new and more powerful also the Russians have taken over the East German The Communists had a propaganda field day over the incident, and the Swedish Communist newspaper, Ny Dag, recalled that 10 years from April 9, the day the search for the Navy plane began, the Nazis occu- pied Copenhagen. The Communists also sneered there had been no American plane crash; it was all just a “Yankee plot” to occupy Copenhagen and spy on the Russian coastline. Note—The Navy believes the missing plane sank as soon as it hit the water for two reasons: 1. The PB-4Y is notoriously difficult to crash-land safely in a rough sea; 2. The crew had orders not to let their radar and electronics equipment fall into Russian hanas. ‘clock tonight to Voters Becoming Aroused is in the Council —g ik (Ketchikan News) Politics is beginning to warm up. That is as it should be. An aroused electorate is always a healthy sign against electing candidates unfit or seeking special advantages. The “whispering campaign” already is under way. | It will increase and reach its height when it is too late to contradict. The real contest this year is not so much a party fight as it is a Gruening and anti-Gruening isdue. If voters approve of the burlensome tax system for the support of political stooges and mounting debts, they will support Gruening candidates. If they want to send men to the Legislature who will be free from any machine leading strings, they will endorse anti- Gruening candidates. The lines are sharply enough | drawn that most any discerning voter can tell the difference. Already the machine organ is busy with its double-talk, trying to confuse issues and barefaced misrepresentations in a desperate effort to salvage as much as possible of the Gruening machine. As for us, we do not believe the voters generally want another machine-controlled legislature. Too many of the fuults of the last one are still with us! ner's Court.

Budenz has also published nu-/ merous magazine articles and af book which have been extremely | helpful in letting the outside world know the inner workings and ma- chinations of the Communist party. A new book, “Men Without Faces,” to be published by Harpers in May, is already in galley proofs. - Today, Budenz is testifying that Frederick Field, a millionaire Com- munist, and Earl Browder, former head of the Communist party, told him about Lattimore and referred to him in such a way as to indi-; cate he was being used by the Communist party or was even a member. However, it is significant that in all his previous writings, including the new book already set up inj type by Harpers, Budenz never mentioned Lattimore’s name. In the forthcoming book for Har- pers, Budenz tells about the Insti- tute of Pacific Relations, of which Lattimore was a member, and names Philip Jessup, now of the State Department, as a member of the: institute. He also names a great many others, but not Latti- more. Furthermore, in all his maga- zine writings and in the large vol- ume of criginal information he gave the FBI, Budenz also failed to mention Lattimore’s name. Bu- denz spent days on end with the FBI earlier, telling them every de- tail about the operation of the Communist party but up u;ntil last week, after he was appealed to by Senator McCarthy, he had not told the FBI anything about Lattimore. He had 'no FOOLING THE PUBLIC They selected as their top name, Corliss Lamont, son of the J. P. Morgan partner, whose Wall Street background would give solidarity and respectability to their list. From that point on they enlisted 150 men of “American artists, writ- ers, composers, editors ,college pro- fessors and broadway figures.” “Few, if any of those who signed the whitewash of the trials,” wrote Budenz, “could possibly know that the idea was hatched by top Com- munist officials in conference with NKVD agents.” Budenz went on to tell how he had set up another front organi- zation, with Mrs. Roosevelt as Honorary Chairman and Harry Truman as a member, to serve as a screen for Marshal Tito then, under Moscow's wing. “As editor of the Daily Worker,” he wrote in Collier's, “I reported the launching, in 1944, of the Am- erican Committe for Yugoslav Re-| lief. Under the guise of charity,; this was simply -an innocents’ front to help Marshal Tito fasten his fangs on his country. “But Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt be- came honorary chairman, Among the sponsore were the then &nutor (now President) Harry S.

Lawrence, Section 1651 of the laws - of Alaska has this to say: The Gov- ernor of Alaska has authority to' see that the laws enacted by thef Legislature are enforced, and to require the faithful discharge of their duties by OFFICIALS of the TERRITORY. Do you believe, from the COR- RUPTION, MALFEASANCE and MISFEASANCE that is taking place in this Territory that the Governor of Alaska, with his con- tinual absences from the Territory, did KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON IN THESE OFFICES? If he did not know what was going on, WHY NOT? Former Territorial Treasurer, is serving 10 years in the penitentiary for his malfeasance and misfea- sance in office, which included a shortage of more than $50,000. In addition, $27,000 worth of liquor stamps are reported unaccounted for and it is said that some persons employed by former Treasurer were short in their accounts. Corres- pondence linking other violations and shortages is reported to have been destroyed. Corruption, Malfeasance and Mis- feasance continue to confront us, and YOU, the TAX PAYER, must pay ever higher and higher taxes to. support this waste and corrup- tion unless we now put an end to| it.
