there, aside from establishing a repu-

WASHINGTON, June 14.-Sena- tor Robertson (R-Wyo) said today that Alcan Highway contracts call ed for higher rents for equipment than the machinery rented was worth.
 Robertson in a speech to the Senate, was sharply critical of the military authorities and the type of contracts they have let on some projects, notably Alcan.
 Senator Ferguson (R-Mich) join- ed in the criticism and said bluntly that mo military security should permit graft and corruption"
 Senator Brewster and I called such things to the attention of the War Investigating Committee, , said Ferguson, "and President Tru- man when he sat right here in this seat, publicly commented that the only action of the military services was the promotion of the men ac- cused."
 Ferguson asserted that Witnesses from the Army and Navy have been intimidated'' by their superiors 'or they would have exposed them"

Baker Tells ( of ( About Anticipated Twice
 Weekly SaiIings

Four day steamer service, twice. a-week, on the route between Seattle and Westward Alaska, is anticipated by the Alaska Steam ship Company for as soon as pos sible after the final cessation of hostilities, according to L. w. Baker Vice-President and General Man. ager of the steamship line, who addressed the Juneau Chamber of Commerce at it's weekly luncheon meeting today.
 MT. Baker stated that the com- pany plans to acquire three new, fast ships which will sail from Seattle on Wednesdays and Satur- days, according to present plans. Four days later they will arrive at either Seward or Whittier, wher- ever they can make connections with the Alaska Railroad.
 Cargo Limited
 The vessels will have first class accommodations for at least 400 passengers. All rooms will be equip ped with toilet and shower or tub, or both. The vessel will have a maximum speed of 19 knots and a sea speed of IT knots, which, to- gether with the fact that it is planned for them to carry as cargo only meats, perishables and semi perishables as well as mail, express and baggage, will make possible their ttHn-around time of 10 or Il days.
 It is also anticipated, MT Baker said, that the company will obtain several new and faster freighters, which will serve the Boring Sea, Bristol Bay and Kotzebue Sound areas, as well as all the regular ports of call. The company's pres ent roster of freighters has been trimmed to three ships which may be assigned to shuttle service.

NEW CHARTER WORLD PEACE UP TO SENATE
Truman Wants Ratification Before Big Session-Hint
 on Cabinet Change

WASHINGTON, June 14.-Presi- dent Truman wants to take with him to, an early Big Three meeting the Senate's signed and sealed ap- proval of the San Francisco con- ference.
 This Presidential hope was re- vealed today by Senator George (D- Ga), who said it undoubtedly was the primary factor in MT. Truman's request for speedy ratification of the projected peace-keeping chart CT.
 George, ranking member of the Foreign Relations Committee, added, however, that he isn't too optimis- tic that approval can be obtained by the administration July IS goal
 Date of the goal was disclosed by Senate authorities yesterday, strong hint that the promised Big Three conference would be held shortly thereafter.
 Mir Truman earlier in the day said he had definite date to meet with Prime Minister Churchill and Marshal Stalin but that word of the time and place would have to await his arrival.
 The White House remained silent on a British broadcast reporting an unconfirmed report from Copen- hagen that the Danish capital would be the locale.
 Meanwhile, the Chief Executives disclosure that James F. Byrnes will accompany him to the meet ing revived speculation over the possibility of the former War Mo- bilizer's ultimate appointment as Secretary of State.
 This speculation is founded both upon MT. Truman's long-standing friendship for the South Carolinian and upon the belief that he has an- other important diplomatic assign ment in mind for Secretary Ed ward R. Stettinius,, Jr. This could be either as an ambassador or as a key figure in the projected United Nations organization MT. Truman reiterated at his news conference yesterday that nc change was contemplated in the State Department portfolio. all though, humorously, he told the reporter who put the question tc keep on asking it.

Associated Press War Correspondent 1 Japan's cave-dwelling troops on Okinawa, squeezed into one shrink ing l3-square- mile pocket. were written off as lost today by Premier Kantaro Suzuki, who indicated mil itary rulers of Nippon are concen- trating on amassing an army of 2,5oo,00o to 5,000,0o0 to repel an in- vasion several months hence. A banzai charge by 300 screaming Nipponese was annihilated by U. s. Seventh Infantrymen, crumbling the eastern anchor of the enemy's suicide line, as Marines of the Sixth Marine Division completed the job of wiping out the Japanese Naha pocket.
 Bcrneo Campaign Australians reconquering Borneo put one airfield into use, captured second and drove toward third. Two other columns pressed toward Brunei Tow. capital of the invad- ed area.
 In other principal ground engage ments Chinese reached the outskirts of Liuchow, former U. s. air base in Southeast China, and U. s. 37th Division Infantrymen in the Philip pines recaptured American tanks which fell into Japanese hands at Bataan.
 Between 750,000 and 1,750,00O Japanese were estimated to have heen killed in Superfort raids on Tokyo and Yokohama alone. under scoring Japanese worries over in- creasing U. s. air power
 Mines Are Planted
 Thirteen Japanese vessels were wrecked by Allied planes ranging from Malaga to Japan. Tokyo re- ported that 40 Superforts planted mines in waters of Western Nippon at midnight. Destroyers of the British East Indies fleet sank two Nipponese vessels off Sumatra.
 Tokyo Radio again reported Tanks were preparing for a new invasion. but Tokyo couldn't make up it's mind whether it would be Japan or the China coast. There appeared to be no doubt in the mind of Premier Admiral Suzuki who said it would take several months for the Allies to prepare an invasion force of 5O0.- 900 and by that time Japan would be ready to meet them with five to ten times as many men.

The w ashington Merry -Go Round
By DREW PEARSON It. Col Robert s. Allen now on activ service with the Army.)

WASHINGTON-The black mar ket in eggs and poultry is so bad that the War Food Administration is seriously considering the freezing of all eggs in storage. Meanwhile J. Edgar Hoover's G-Men had been quietly probing the poultry black market in the Delaware Maryland area with startling results. Their findings will reach high into Della ware state politics and perhaps into the Washington headquarters of the War Food Administration and OPA.
 Already Clifford Shedd, Delaware WFA official, has lost the authority to release poultry for civilian con- sumption from the Army's set aside, hut his chief in Washington, Gordon Sprague, says he is taking full authority for anything that might be found wrong with Shedd's administration. Sprague has taken over direct charge of all poultry releases, but claims that he knows of no irregular action by Shedd.
 Meanwhile. black market opera tions along both the west and the east. coast are so serious that legit- innate poultry and egg dealers are being forced out of business. The situation in New England, New Jer- sey and North Carolina is especially bad.
 Last week Tim Stitts of the War Food Administration told Congress man Anderson's food committed that OPA should suspend all price ceilings on eggs in an effort to channel eggs back into the legit- innate market. This immediately caused dealers to hold on to their eggs for a price rise.
 But what they did not know is that Stitts has not requested OPA to suspend or even raise the price ceiling on eggs. OPA, under the Price Control Act, cannot raise

 Indications are that this demand will he granted, although with some strings attached The Big Powers, having triumphed on the veto issues, are agreeable provided they now get two other things they want:
 1. A restriction that the charter Icing drawn up at the United Ma tions conference cannot be amended except on the complete agreement of the United States, Britain, Rus sia, France and China.
 2. A punishment clause under which nations judged guilty of grave violations of the charter would be expelled from the organization
