WASHINGTON, Feb. 1l.-Foot- notes for future historians
 Opening wedge of what might be the political death of the "tux and black tie"-at least at presi- dential electors banquets was hammered home by James H. Ham, mond, Columbia, s. O., lawyer and one of that states electors.
 Unhappy at the thought of going so formally informal, MT. Ham, mond informed the committee that he would not attend in any such garb. In part, MT. Hammond pro- tested thus:
 As Prometheus from his rock, with the moths plucking out it's vitals, hangs my tux and tie. To the ambitiOnless waiter, who never hopes to be the head, relegate my tux and tie.
 Where has democracy gone in such stringent regulations as tux and tie? All of us have hcwied Democracy. Liberty! Frcedom!. and during the cam paign there was no mention of tux and black tie.
 The every echo of our Op-. pcn6nts still rings back: 'Regi- montaticn' as though they

WASHINGTON, Feb. ll.--U Urging passage of the British Aid Bill, with notifications" Wendell l.. Willkie, who has just returned from first hand war survey trip to England, proposed to the Senate Foreign Re- lations Committee that the United States furnish Great Britain five to ten destroyers month.
 The 1940 Republican Presidential candidate, appearing in the Senate's marbled walled caucus room, where packed hundreds waited for hours to hear him, declared in a prepared statement that Great Britain needs both immediate and long term" as- sistance.
 Willkie said the United States should provide Great Britain with destroyers directly and swiftly rather than through rigamarole of dubious legalistic interpretations and, incidentally, if we make more destroyers available for Great Brit ain, we should recondition them in this country and in our own yards.
 As for notifications, Willkie said it is wise to limit the proposed aid not only to Great Britain but also to China and Greece.
 In discussing the legislation, Will kie said: We must not hide the important facts that We must have courage to draw proper differences on facts that democracy cannot live by dodging around the corner"
 Willkie also said he believed the policy of isolation" will eventually destroy the civil liberties in the United States and bring an economic upheaval

REAL SECRETARY OF NAVY

secretary Knox IS one Of the most dynamic and forceful members of the Cabinet, but apparently the Ad- mirals believe that they, not he, really run the Navy.
 This interesting view leaked out during conversation between Rear Admiral John H. Towers, Chief of Aeronautics, and L. M. Walling, head of the Labor Departments Public Contracts Division, which administ- CTS the -Healey Act requiring all firms to pay prevailing wages on government work.
 In league with other admirals. Towers is quietly gunning for this New Deal labor law. He publicly as- sailed it before the House Naval Af- fairs Committee, and secretly is working with Committee Chairman Carl Vinson to put through m amendment suspending the law on defense contracts.

Previous Plan

Tn separating the two offices previously held by MT. Sharp, the Commission has been guided by the plan adopted by the pre- vioUs Commission members, Dr. Noble Dick of Fairbanks and R. s. BragaW of Anchorage, who lad perfected the plan for the set-up, and wired MT. Sheldon asking him if he would accept the position of Executive Direct CT, They suddenly and unexpect edly resigned before their meet ing was adjourned last fall with out receiving his reply. The pres ent Commission feels that the former members of the Commis- sion, out of wisdom of several years experience in Commission matters acted with good judge ment in planning this set-up and that ii can best serve the public interest by putting it into opera ton.

Work Increased

Tn the early years of the op- eration of the Act, however, the Executive Director has held the office of Director of the Uncm- ployment Compensation Service alzo. Inasmuch as the work of administering the Act has vastly increased since this set-up was adopted. the Confusion feels that there should be a separation of the duties of the Executive Dir e2.or and the Director of the Unemployment Comp ensation Service. It has therefore acted 10 achieve this end.
 Robert E. Sheldon of Fair banks has been apoisted Exec utive Director of the Commission and vii rep ace Walter P. Sharp in that branch of the work. This appointment does not in the slightest effect MT. Sharp's posi- tion as Director of the Unemploy mCnt Service, in which place, so far as the Commission is con- cerscd, he will remain. The com mission feels that MT. Sharp has done excellent work in this branch of the service and that this department has been ably and efficiently administered by him. Ii has only the highest of praise for him in this capacity.

Sharpe Valued"

Phillips and Mrs. Hermann said that so far as they are con- cerned Walter Sharpe, present director of lhe office, will remain head of the unemployment com pcnsation office. They declared they considered him valuable man for this position. So far as retention of Joe Flakne, as head of the employment service, the commissioners declined to state their intentions. They said they had not as yet considered a pet ition from CIO mine workers al Fairbanks for the removal of Flakne.
 Both Phillips and Mrs. Her mann denied that Stuart Morri- son, special agent for the Feder- al Social Security Board, now in Juneau, had anything 10 do with their revision of the territorial office set-up. Morrison has not consulted with the directors, nor has he appeared at meeting of the board, Phillips said. Both de- clared that the plan to re-vamp the Set-up was drafted by Robert BragaW and Dr. Noble Dick, for mer commissioners, before their recent resignation from the posts. Sheldon, they said. was the choice of Bragaw and Dr. Dick for the executive directorship and had been asked if he would accept the appointment shortly before the two men resigned.
 Ex-Postmaster
 Sheldon is former manager of the Mckinley Park Transporta- tiOn Company, recently taken over by the Department of the Interior, is former postmaster at Fairbanks and former territorial legislator.
 Following is the public state ment signed by Phillips and Mrs. Hermann:
 As originally written, this Act which passed the Legislature in the extraordinary session of 1887, calls for the appointment of an Executive Director, charged with the general administration of the Act and of Diectors for each of the two branches of ser vice contemplated by the Act: the Employment Service, charg- ed with the duty of putting men
