This | feature is at the Capitol Theatre | tonight. The cast, made up chiefly of new- comers, is superb. Such actors as Peter Fernandez, Al Ramsen and |Joshua Shelley attain immediate success in their debut roles. Other members of the “Dukes,” boy gang about which the story is written, in- clude Anthony Curtis, Mickey Knox and Richard Jaeckel. All turn in | rousing performances. Drew Pear- son, famed Washington news an- |alyst, is narrator. ! The story traces the change in ‘Femandez. playing an ambitious, Knm'mal high school youth, as he | becomes involved against his bet- ter instincts with the Dukes. He be- |comes a lawbreaker as the activities lof the gang develop from ordinary | rowdyism into actual murder. Stephen McNally is seen as a | “moral force” in his role of com- | munity center director who tries unsuccessfully to keep Fernandez |a right-thinking boy. | There are tresh faces on the tem- {inine side, too. Barbara Whiting is Ithe attractive tenement teen-ager | who evcites the emotions of Shelly, | portraying a half-mad youth named | Crazy. Sue England is Fernandez’ | girl friend. The romance between lthem seems almost delicately beau- | tiful against the rough, passionate | environment in which mey move. THESE DAYS AR GEORGE E qOKO SKY THE KOREAN STRATEGY It is suggested that what has happened in Korea represents a tactical surprise. Nothing could be more false. The Korean situation is the inevitable result of a con- tinuously incorrect policy in tHe East of Asia, particularly China. Empires are built step by step, the new line of attack moving out as a bulwark of defense. Once Man- churia came into the possession of Soviet Russia, it was inevitable that Korea would be the next step and | following that would be an attack on Japan. Korea is a peninsula that lies between Manchuria and Japan. It |cannot defend itself against an in- vader from either Manchuria or Japan. Therefore, all the countries | lying close to Korea—China, Russia land Japan—have vied for control in the modern historical period. |By 1910, Japan was in a posmon to dominate Korea and to annex it to Japan. name of their country is chosen— | the land of the morning calm. In | fact, the Koreans have been a peaceful people not given to fight- | ing except. on rare occasions. They are Buddhists. Although there was always a revolutionary movement among | Koreans living outside of their own country, its influence within Korea was negligible. Among the anti- {Japanese revolutionists was one | group whose sympathies were weSt- ern; that is, they tended to place their dependence upon the United | States. Many of those Who be- longed to this group had been ed- ucated in American universities or in Christian mission schools in Korea, There was, however, another group whichy along with other Asiatics, turned toward Moscow after the Russian revolution. They were trained in the Sun Yat-Sen Institute and the Lenin Institute in Moscow and fought in the armies of the Chinese Communists under Mao Tze-Tung and Chu Teh. Many of these Korean Communists have had as many as 30 years of train- ing in the Communist movement. Many of them have been active in the civil wars of China since 1924. It is interesting to note that Com- munists, the world over, place their movement before their country and ial relationship to other countries because it is the motherhood of the revolution. Russia comes into this situation as a result of the Yalta agreement. It must be recalled that when the recognize Russia as holding a spec- | Young Hardware Co.. Inc.

Never- theless, an agreement was entered into which so completely placed Soviet Russia in control of Man- | churia that Korea’s future was in- evitably to serve as a battleground in the next war. At the Moscow conference, meet- ing between December 16 and 26, 1945, Korea was divided betwéen Soviet Russia and the United States. This was done “with a view to the re-establishment of Korea as an independent state the creation of conditions for de- veloping the country on democratic orinciples and the earliest possible liquidation of the disastrous re- sults of the protracted Japanese domination in Korea, there shall be set up a provisional Koredn democratic government which shall take all the necessary steps for developing the industry, transport and agricplture of Korea and the national culture of the Korear people.” That so-called democratic gov- ernment has not come into exist- ence because Soviet Russia did not permit it. Since 1945, Soviet Rus- sia has devoted itself to the estab- lishment of a Soviet Korea. By this Moscow agreement, signed by James F. Byrnes, Ernest Bevin, and V. Molotov on December 27, 1945, Korea was to be held by a joint commission. Actually, the country was divided into two parts on the 38th parallel, Soviet Russia occupy- ing the northern sector; the United States, the southern sector. Had no politics been played in the United States, the practica! solution would have been to placc Korea completely under the contro; of General Douglas MacArthur as part of Japan. However, there has been a running fight between the State Department and the Depaft- ment of Defense over the American policy in China, Japan and Korea. ‘This quarrel has been reflected in a weakened American implementa- tion of policy. If the Russians can conquer Kor- ea, our position in Japan is defi- nitely imperiled. For Japan is next and if Japan is taken, Alaska wili be untenable. Empire moves unless it is destroyed. 20 IN VIA PNA, 12 T0 WESTWARD Pacific Northern Airlines brought 20 persons to Juneau yesterday and carried 12 on the outbound flight.

But the agency said applicants for land in the area, 40 miles west of Fairbanks, must gravely consider the frost and other problems they | would have to face in trying to| start a farm, i The department also rejected the area for group settlement purposes. Two years ago it withdrew the ! 32,437 acres from individual settle- | ment in the Goldstream Creek val- ley in the hope a community pro- | ject might be established. “In all fairness to the public, no land known to be unsuitable for farming should be open to agricul- tural entry,” the Bureau of Land SUSPENSE DRAMA OPENING TONIGHT AT 20TH CENTURY With Rex Harrison Cummins as its stars, “Escape, screen version of the greatest o! ‘Juhh Galsworthy's suspense dramas |opens tonight at the Gross 20tt Century Theatre. The drama of & man whom a miscarriage of jus- | tice changes into a desperately hunted fugitive is said to hold some |of the most tense and dramatic moments af the screen year, as it unfolds its gripping story of a man born to perilous adventure, and ot |a woman destined for the most dangerous of loves. In keeping with Galsworthy's own accent on realism, Twentieth Cen- tury—Fax sent Director Joseph L. | Mankiewicz, Producer William Perl- man and the stars to England to film the picture. Much of the action of the thrilling manhunt described in the story was photographed on |the grim Devonshire Moors that |surround the celebrated Dartmoor Prison. Harrison is seen as Matt Denant, the ex-R.AF. fiter who, stung by Management said in a news release. | “A citizen has a right to believe that public land opened to farm settlement is in truth suitable on the whole for farming. “But it would be 1mprncncnhle under existing law to withhold this | area permanently from agricultural entry.” ‘The bureau said surveys the Dunbar area to be unsuitable for group settlement because: 1. Only 5000 acres were free from sinking due to the uneven falling of ice. 2. The 5,000 acres of suitable land were not situated suitably for | division into sizable farm units. 3. Water supplies for domestic use and for livestock probably would be inadequate. | 4. It would be impracticable to provide community facilities and services for such a small and poorly arranged area. 5. Economic studies of farming in Alaska provided little hope for successful agriculture in the Dun- bar area. 6. Superior agricultural - oppor- tunities exist elsewhere in Alaska. The bureau added that it plans to require all applicants for land | in the Dunbar area to show that they are fully informed of the | general unsuitability of the area | for agricultural homestead purposes. VISITORS FROM EAST ARE HOUSEGUESTS OF ' THE JAMES ORMES House guests of Mr. and Mrs. James Orme are Mrs. Jessie King and Mrs, Elizabeth Vincent of Indianapolis who arrived in Juneau | on the Baranof. Mrs,. King, who is an aunt of Mrs. Orme, and her friend drove across the northern highways from | Indianapolis to Seattle and will re- turn to their home by way of California. Almost more than the scenery in Alaska, the visitors are enjoying the weather. “It is wonderful to sleep under a blanket in mid- summer,” sald Mrs. King, “the weather was really hot when we left home.” The travelers will have been away from home about ten weeks | at the end Of their journey. Lynn Wasvick of Petersburg is another guest of the Orme’s. Young Lynn is visiting Katherine and Pat, children in the Orme family.
