A key plan is now being discussed backstage wherehy the President will set up what amounts to a joint chiefs of staff for propaganda, economic warfare, diplomacy, military strategy, and hush-hush behind-the-enemy-lines activities. GOP Runs Foreign Policy —The State Department has gone so far to appease Republicans that the Democrats are fuming. While Sec- retary of State Acheson keeps Re- publican senators informed on for- eign policy, Democratic senators have to read it in the papers. It has got so bad that Democrats are now talking about investigating the Republicans in the State Depart- ment—such as General MacArthur in Japan, Commissioner McCloy in¢ Germany, ECA Administrator Paul Hoffman, United Nations Delegate Warren Austin, and Special Ad- visers Dulles and Cooper, who se‘w1 to have a bigger voice in foreiga policy than the Democrats.

Meanwhile, the Spanish generals are reported ready to turn Franco out and restore the monarchy. Juch a move is bitterly attacked sy Spanish Communists. It is significant that, since the Russo-Spanish talks in Cairo, the :ontralled Spanish radio has ceased ts bitter castigation of Russia, even uses items from the Russian aews service Tass. A prime target »f the Spanish radio now is Sec- retary of State Dean Acheson. State Department interpretation of the Russo-Spanish negotiations is: The United States must come across with a substantial’ loan.

INFORMATION FISHY IN NEW PISCATORIAL LIBRARY STARTED HERE A library devoted exclusively to fisheries publications is growing every day at the Territorial De- partment of Fisheries. It began with the personal col- lection of C. L. Anderson, director of the fisheries department, which formed the nucleus of the library. Walter Kirkness and Robert, R Parker, fisheries biologists, also added their personal collections ot technical publications. A. J. Sprague of Juneau helped the library along with a good number of rare techni- cal material. And so it grew. Now it fills eight shelves in the department offices in the Seward Building, and C. L. Anderson ex- pects it to grow to a greater size. He's requested local fishermen and local fisheries officials to bring in the old fisheries magazines and re- ports they no langer want. Included in the publications on the biology and technology of fish- eries in the library are issues of the “Pacific Fisherman” dating back to 1917, “Pacific Fisherman Yearbooks” to 1915, and two shelves of . Norwegian fisheries publications. When all the books, magazines and reports in the library have been properly catalogued, the library will be opened fo anyone wishing to do research into fisheries problems, Anderson said. FROM..
