To be sure, this Tory vote was

SHIP T|E-UP I5 DECLARED
 'RIDI(UL0U5'
Robertson Says Labor Dis Dute on Boat Not Good
 Citizenship

Forming recent labor disputes which have delayed sailings of All aska Steamship Line boats as ridiculous situations, Attorney R. E. Robertson today told the Juneau Chamber of Commerce he believes it is high time for us to advance the views that such a condition is intolerable and not good American citizenship"
 Robertson referred to the two-day tie up of the Aleutian in Seattle this week while members of the crew refused to sail with a negro pantryman who had been assigned to the ship.
 Principal speaker at the noon luncheon of the Chamber was Seton Thompson, Assistant chief of the Alaska fisheries division of the Fish and Wildlife Service.
 Observations on the escapement of fish up streams to spawning grounds this fall indicate a bright outlook for good salmon runs in most sections of Alaska, Thompson reported Possible exception to this is the Egegik section of Bristol Bay, where the run has been disappoint- ing the past few years, he declared.

WASHINGTON-T Though he has stayed out of the limelight, few men have played more important role in the recent war effort than Mai Gen. James Burns, the man Roose- velt is picking as our new Ambassa- dor to Russia.
 For about a year Gen. Burns has been attached to the White House to expedite Lend-Lease goods to Britain and Russia. He has done a hard driving, efficient job.
 More recently, when he accom- panied Averell Hartman to Russia, Gen Burns was the one man in the mission who got out of Moscow and had a look-see at the long Russian front extending south to the Cau- casus.
 One story he brought back from that trip was how the Russians had picked up an entire airdrome from in front of the Nazi attack, trans ported it well behind the lines, and set it up with underground machine shops and hangars in thirty days.
 The man who really discovered Burns was Louis Johnson, eX-Assist- ant Secretary of War Burns was a low-ranking colonel buried in the War Department when Johnson rec ognized his ability and put him in charge of industrial mobilization.
 As Johnson was about to retire as Assistant Secretary, Gen. Marshall asked if he had any final requests to make.
 There is just one thing you can do for me-" Johnson replied. Pro mote Colonel Burns to the rank of Major General"
 Burns got the promotion, and also was assigned to the White House where he has been almost ever since.
 NOTE: National Defense would be far better off today if the War De- partment had followed the industrial mobilization plan worked out by Burns and Louis Johnson.

Administration Plans
To Ask Control Of
Private Forest Law
Controversial Legislation
Will Be Revived as Port
Of Preparedness Program

By The Associated Press.
The administration, as a part of
its preparedness drive, soon will ask
Congress for broad legislation pro-
viding for public regulation of more
than 30O0O0,0O0 acres of privately
owned forest land authoritative
sources said today.
The object of such control. it was
said. would be to prevent wastage
of forest resources and to require
private owners to observe cutting
and replanting practices which would
keep the land reasonably produc-
tive.
REQUEST for the legislation would
be based upon the argument that
wood is an essential war material,
which should be conserved in the
public interest. The United States
Forest Service declares that pri-
vate owenrs, as. whole, have not
taken proper steps to conserve for
estry resources and that consequent
ly public regulation is essential.
The question of public control of
private forest land has been raised
frequently in the past. 1t stirred
sharp controversy. Heretofore leg
islation of this nature has made lit
tie headway in Congress.
There will be no contention, it
was said, that the United States
faces a possible shortage Of wood
in the near future. 1t will be argued,
however, that unless action is taken
soon to replenish dwindling forest
reserves, shortages might occur in
a future national emergency.
The administration is expected to
recommend a Federal-State system
of control. Regulations would be
laid down and enforced by State
agencies. The Federal Government
would help finance the control pro-
gram through grants.
