Of course, lots of people didn’t Y1 a meal in those good old days or clothes, and, as far as doctors go, out of bed at all hours, as memory to do. However, if doctors don’t seem to be doing as 3 a. m. as they did a half century 1l put in hours that would horrify mem- much work at ago, t THESE DAYS By GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY The American Assembly Fred Smith has sent out a notice of the American Assémbly. which is to be held under the auspices of » graduate school of business of University in May, de- nending upon General Eisenhower's Europeat mmitments. Fred be 1t noted, was one of the Relations Counsel of Wen- Willkie during his presidential campaign. - The purpose of the American Assembly is “to discuss and clarify vital pational issues,” which is laudable, and the subject of the first assembly will be “the relation- ship of the United- States to Wes- tern Europe,” which, of course, has been considered in “the great -de- bate” and Congress is now legisla- ting on matters pertaining to it. By May, much of this legislation shall have been passed and the obligations shall have been set. However, there can be no harm in either discussion or clarification, _ particularly the latter. ‘The press release for “The First Assembly,” as the May meeting is to be called, states: “The prime objective of this as- sembly is to state and clarify as . much as possible the many inter- related questions involved in what we are to do about Western Eur- ope—how far we should go toward Smith ' protecting Western Europe from D11 Communism, the importance of %/ Western Europe to us, and the 1'% price we might have to pay for various methods of meeting the situation. If some of the conflicts of opinion on this subject can be resolved, the Assembly will have 11 made an important contribution.” [R5 I do not think that this goes far enough. I should like to see a dis- cussion on how we got into our present troubles, who got us there, what foundations were laid for them at Teheran, Yalta, and Pots- dam. Every public situation that faces us today has its roots in the " past. For it seems to me that nobody can discuss with any intelligence the status of our relations to Wes- tern Europe or to Communism in -4 May, 1951 without a full grasp of 4w the agreements, stipulations and promises, written and verbal, which underlie our present difficulties =" with Soviet Russia. ¥or mstance, we need to know s hy when we could have taken " Rerlin as an American prize, we . did not.

When * we understand wors we have made, it will be possible for us b 'to assess the full criminality of Russia’s action in hurling the _ world into war again. What is the ¥ ¥ basis for all the confusion in Ko- rea? i+ Then the circular 21 “The First Assembly:” “It will not be the function of the American Assembly to set forth says about a specific way to dispose of this issue, but rather to provide a thorough discussion of all the problems involved, get all the facts before the people, and thereby make it possible for the citizen to -~ exercise his own judgment.” Whenever 1 see that there is to be a “thorough discussion” to get had colic at 3 a. m. and rush over to your house with | The same good old days when | you could get a good dinner in a good restaurant for 75 cents and a suit of clothes for $20? amazing improvements in life expectancy for both infants and adults—even if doctors aren’t jumping a luxury. when the family | bed if the baby story. have 75 cents for $20 for a suit of there have been tells us they used gamblers directly, death. 11 the facts,” I like to know who is going to do the discussing. Thus . T see only these names: Gen- Dwight D. Eisenhower, and essors Schuyler Wallace, Phil- E. Mosely, Leland M. Goodrich, | Rugnar Nurkse, Franz Neumann, William T. R. Fox, and L. Gray Cowan. These are all professors, engaged in research, and all are internationalists. This is no reflec- tion upon these men or their abil- ity, but obviously they are of one| view. To theém is added former Ambassador to Great Britain Lew- is W. Douglas and Professor Philip Young, Dean of the Graduate School of Business of Columbia University. Perhaps invitations will l‘he is- sued to those who aré in opposi- tion to the internationalist or, more accurately, the British point of view. The test of the objectivity of this assembly will be when the list of delegates and speakers is published, and I shall comment on it then. It will be interesting to see whether such students of the problem as Herbert Hoover and Robert A. Taft will be invited to day, 300 days a year, and sees %5 patients each work- He devotes five hours a week to charity He passes 28 days a year attending post- graduate courses and medical meetings.

TIME OFF FROM SEA, FIRST MATE HELGESON HERE TO VISIT MOTHER Claude Helgeson has inade s0 many trips to the Orient as first mate in the Military Sea Transpor- tation Service that he is more fam- iliar with Yokohama, Pusan, Guam and other far eastern ports than he is with Seattle and Juneau, his home town. To visit his mother, Mrs. Garland Boggan, young Helgesoh, arrived in Juneau by Pan American Air- ways Thursday:and will remain in Juneau until time to rejoin his ship, the USNS Martinez—the Pvt. Joe Martinez, he explained, named after a hero of Attu. This is the young officer’s first trip to his home town in two years. He was graduated from Ju- neau High School in 1940, appoin- ted to Annapolis, failed to make U. S. Naval Academy requirements because of his eyes, and after at- tendance at the University of Washington, joined the Army Transfer Service. He has been a mate since 1946. During the war and for awhile after he served aboard ships on the Aleutian run, but since then Le has completed thirty-six trips 0 the Orient. Last June his ship was only 100 nies from Korea when the war segan and their passengers were cvacuees from Seoul to Tokyo. “The war came quickly,” Helge- son said. “Army wives with whom 1 talked told stories of leaving all their belongings at Seoul, with only the clothes they were wearing at the moment of notification. They were given money in Tokyo for the purchase of new clothing.” Since last June, Helgeson's ships have made five trips to Pusan. It was the Martinez that carried the Canadian Princess Pats from Se- attle to Pusan. “It was a pretty rough trip, too,” Helgeson said.

As a few of the statements re- garding duties performed by the CAA were incorrect, it would be greatly appreciated if the facts were printed. Quoting your article: “The first warning of an air raid came from the CAA tower at the airport at 10:42 p.m,, 16 minutes after the signal had been received at the tower.” The CAA tower is closed from 6 pm. until 10 a.m. daily, All message communications are handled by the CAA communications station 24 hours daily. The “air raid” message was received at 10:34 p.m. and duties required by our watch supervisor | comprised: (1) phoning necessary | iparties in the city of Juneau; (2) instead of 16 minutes. To clarify any misunderstanding regarding the beacon and runway lights, it is probable that the Men- denhall rotating beacon was observ- ed instead of our airport beacon. The extinguishing of the Men- denhall beacon was not deemed ad- visable for the practice raid and agreement to this effect was co- ordinated with the Civil Defense Council prior to the practice raid. Our instructions do not require the extinguishing of lights during practice alerts, but in a spirit of cooperation with the Defense Coun- cil it was agreed that the lights would be turned out. These lights definitely were off during the practice raid and not re~ turned to normal operation until the all clear was received. Rest assured, the CAA will en- deavor to cooperate wholeheart- edly with the Civil Defense Council in any undertaking to ef- fect an efficient blackout insofar as it will not violate the directives ional office.
