One Place That Is Cool

To the Editor of The Star:
How do you like this hot weather.
If you dislike it, come down and spend
a few hours any day in refrigeration at
the Courthouse. When you have tried
this you then will seek the sunlight
upon park bench to thaw out. This is
pleasing, is it not? Thaw out this hot
weather. 1t almost makes you shiver,
I am sure
Speaking of sinus trouble and summer
colds also, If you have neither and wish
to contract one or both, put yourself
these hot days on ice at the Courthouse.

prmclple OF the sovereign equality OF
all peace-loving states and open to
membership by all such states, large
and small" And Secretary Hull,
celebrating upon this understanding
before a joint session of Congress
last November, asserted that as its
provisions take effect, there will no
longer be need for spheres of in
huence, for alliances, for balance of
power or any other of the special
arrangements through which, in the
unhappy past, the nations strove to
safeguard their security or to pro-
mote their interests"
More recently-shortly after the
Allied invasion of France-President
Roosevelt revealed the outline OF a
proposal for security organization
acting through two main instru-
ments: First, "a fully representative
body Of all nations" with broad re-
sponsiblities to cooperate through
such agencies as may be found
necessary; and second, kind of
executive council to be elected an
nually by this body and to be made
up Of the four major powers, plus "a
suitable number" of other powers,
with 4 view to dealing with the
peaceful settlement of international
disputes and with the prevention of
threats to the peace or breaches OF
the peace" Because of their strength
and resources, the heart or indispen-
sable nucleus Of an organization of
this sort would obviously be Britain,
Russia, China and the United States,
but this would not necessarily mean
the subservience of the smaller coun-
tries. In his statement Mr.. Dewey
himself recognizes this nuclear i'm
portance of the Big Four, and as long
ago as the Republican Mackinac
meeting, he suggested that a lasting
de facto military alliance" among
them-within the framework of
overall global llaboration-would
be wholesome for the world.
Reduced to its essentials, Mr..
Dewey's statement on the Dunbar
ton Oaks conference advocates what
seems to be taking shape as the COM
mon objective of both major Amer
lean political parties-a world secur-
ity system in which all peaceable
nations, large and small, will be on
an equal footing and have an equal
chance to live in freedom and pros
perity. 1t is thus a misrepresenta-
ton to say that the statement has
injected partisan issue into the
field Of foreign policy. Mr.. Dewey
has merely raised question on the
basis of some reports reaching him,
and Mr.. Hull, while incidentally an
nouncing that the Big Four meeting
is to be followed by meeting of the
United Nations as a whole, has
promptly assured him that the
disturbing reports are utterly and
completely unfounded."
This clears the air. Secretary Hull
has been making very sincere effort
to divorce this subject from par
tisanship, and we may assume that
his assurances to Governor Dewey
will be accepted in the spirit with
which they are given. Nothing could
be more important at this time, for
never was it truer than it is now
that for the sake of the Nation and
the world, politics must stop at the
waters edge.

After tour of the entire Aleu-

Guard Combat Correspondent, ar
rived in Juneau yesterday. "Of all
the cities and towns in the Terri
tory I have visited" said Askwith,
Il believe I'd rather live In Juneau.
Your town is nearest to our homes
in the States"
Stating that he could not discuss
his work, this young man who has
seen more of Alaska in year than
most residents have in a lifetime,
calls it "a Territory with an enorm-
Gus future He spoke of servicemen
in Southeast Alaska who had taken
up mining courses in their spare
time, intending to go further into
this field and come here to live
after the war.
."Since 1 can't talk of my trip,
can say one thing which has made
Juneau famous throughout the Ter
ritory. There is little doubt that
your town has the most beautiful
girls in the entire Territory"
The town of Mogilev, Russia, was
