He was reappointed at Portland, Oregon, on October l, 1918, and was assigned to Alaska the following spring on extensive land classified tion of the Tongass National Forest. That job continued for two field seasons, during which travel was entirely by small launch, and MT. Holbrook experienced many adventures. Once he was caught in a bear trap and was forced to drag and carry the trap and toggle to the beach before he could extri- cate himself. Land classification, both extensive and intensive, con- tinued on the Tongass and Gnu zach Forests until 1925.
 When Alaska was made a sep arate district, in 1921, MT. Hol- brook was permanently assigned to Juneau and has resided here ever since. He was appointed Assistant Regional Forester on July l, 1884 in charge of Operation. Lands and Wildlife.
 MT. and Mrs. Holbrook plan to spend their summers at their beau tiful Louisa Beach cabin on the Glacier Highway near Juneau and their winters in Juneau and the States.

Turisdictional Disputes
By Raym ond M oley

The labor management government
conference is digging carefully into
Jurtsdictional disputes an ever in
creasing cause of interrupted production
and threat to the very existence of
sound unionism.
The AFL has always been threat
ened with atomization by these intra-
union rows. Samuel Gompers used to
warn the international unions of this
menace in most passionate terms.
Speaking in Chicago in 1922 of serious
trouble which had broken out in the
building trades, Gompers said, 1.-THE
federation is a rope of sand"
Jurisdictional differences are charac-
teristic of trade-union, rather than in
dustrial-union organization. Hence,
they are the greater threat to the AFL.
But the CIO has not been immune
from this evil although its rapid pace
of organization in hitherto unorganized
industries has spared it somewhat. But
as its growth has proceeded, it has more
and more frequently been running into
some of its own older branches or into
AFL unions.
Most jurisdictional quarrels originate
with the business agents Of local unions.
One of the most famous of Jurisdiction
al wars, lasting 20 years or more, was
the claim of the Teamsters and Truck
Drivers Union formerly called the
International Brotherhood of Teamsters,

national Union of United Brewery,

names is to provide q stronger basis
for jurisdictional claims.

Locust Plaque Remembered

To the Editor of The Star:
Enquiry was made in your columns
as to whether a flight of locuStS blacked
out the sun.
Yes, dramatically so. AS child in
San Antonio, Tex, in 1876, one sum-
mer day I was mounting flight Of
steps, glaring white in the sunshine
A darkness suddenly came. Frightened,
I looked behind me and saw a huge
blackness obscuring sun. This spread
and fringed out as it approached; then
there was sound as of falling pebbles,
and around me shoWered hideous saw
age locusts. A dog left his bone and
ran into the house. My brothers soon
had locusts matched against 1ocusts, in
fights. Their rolling eyes, their fierce
attack with their claws against each
other, terrified the girls.
Locusts filled the rain water barrels,
blocked the wells, and soon had de-
voured the fields of green things.
Children with sticks were set to drive
them from the gardens. We drank
sulphur water from springs brought in
beer kegs to the house.
A sport was to shuttle through the
dry grass and rouse the locusts in
clouds, like autum leaves.

Crisis in France

In voting to ask him to renew his
efforts to form a coalition govern
ment, the French Constituent As
sembly has retained General de
Gaulle as interim President of
France. but though this may tenn
porarily ease the political crisis now
gripping the country, the outlook
seems less than bright for a salts
factory understanding between him
and the Communists, who have
more seats in the Assembly than
any other one party and who dis
sented as a bloc against keeping
him in office
The gulf between the two Ger
tainly was not narrowed any when
General de Gaulle took to the radio
last Saturday night to tell the
French people, in effect, that al
though he was anxious to name
Communists to the cabinet, he did
not trust them enough to accede to
their demand that one of them be
named either Minister of Foreign
Affairs, Minister of War or Minister
of Interior. To do so, he said, might
endanger Frances policy of equi-
librium" between Russia and the
United States because the three
posts command the country's inter
national program "the diplomacy
that expresses it, the army that Sus-
tains it and the police that protects
it,"
This was tantamount to saying
that the Communicative biggest
party in the Assembly-could not be
counted upon with certainty to be
loyal to France in the field of foreign
policy. In a strictly political sense,
no matter how just or unjust this
view may be, General de Gaulle's
speech thus was hardly calculated
to spread oil on troubled waters, nor
was his reference to a policy of
equilibrium"-a balance of power
idea-an expression likely to endear
him to Russia, II indeed 1t is accept
able to US, and non-C Communist
French newspapers have criticized
him for it.
Nevertheless, with the backing of
the Socialists and the Popular Re-
publicans. General de Gaulle has
been upheld in his effort to form an
interim government. He has been
told to do this, however, by giving
equal cabinet representation to the
three major parties, so that unless

This Changing World
By Constantine Broyn

The White House and the State De-
partment received last week end the
largest number of "for the eye only" dis
patches ever received from Americas
diplomatic and military representatives
stationed In the four corners OF the
world.
They are said to contain the same
tale OF woe-of open or brewing civil
wars, of discarded pledges given small
er nations and of the weakened struc-
ture of the United Nations Security
Organization.
Wherever our policy-framers turn
their heads at this time they can see
only active or potential trouble. Presi-
dent Truman and Secretary of State
ByrneS are said to be greatly disturbed.
They have done their utmost to bring
about some semblance of order in the
world and are still disposed to make
wide concessions to achieve their pur-
poses. But they are confronted with
situation which is contrary to all the
solemn pledges and equally solemn
agreements signed by the Big Three
since the days of Teheran
The most disturbing news received in
Washington over the week end was
from Northern Iran, where the Soviet
sponsored democratic" party formerly
known as the Tudeh, the Persian Com
munist party finally started its sep
aratist" movement. This movement
aims at detaching that prosperous por-
tion of the country, bordering Russia
from Teheran, and placing it under the
control Of Moscow.
The independence, sovereignty and
territorial integrity of Iran was fully
guaranteed by the United States, Great
Britain and Russia in the statement
issued at Teheran on December /, 1943
1t was to be the reward for the
invaluable assistance given by the
1ranian government to the Allies in
permitting and assisting in the trans
portation of war material from the
Persian Gulf to Russia. Without that
loyal cooperation it is doubtful if the
Russians would have been able to with
stand the attacks of the Germans.
Besides having rich oilfields, Iran is
also the gateway to India For more
than century it has been the bone of
contention between Russia and Britain.
n y
President Roosevelt was aware that
after the defeat of the Axis the old
rivalry between the two powerful en-
pires might be revived, and it was at
his instigation that the pledge was
made to the Teheran government.
Moscow, however, has discovered a
way to respect the letter of its inter-
national agreements without living up
to the spirit of its pledges. A Com
munlst party was established in Iran
soon after the 1943 agreement Soon
the northern part of the country, the
so-called Persian Azerbaijan, was made
into military zone occupied "tempor-
arily" by the Red armies

Special Treatment

If votelesS resident of this COM
munity had been at the wheel of the
automobile which dragged Police
man Roy S. Bridges some forty feet
Saturday evening. after the driver
had disregarded a traffic signal and
ignored the officers command to
stop. there would have been none
of the extreme tenderness which has
characterized the handling of the
case by District authorities. The
offending driver would have been
arrested promptly, and in the alb
sence of bond he would have been
locked up. By Monday morning he
would have been in court and the
chances are that he would have been
tried, convicted and sentenced be-
fore the luncheon recess.
Actually, however, the case has
been handled in a very different
manner. Forty Eight hours after
the offense the police still professed
ignorance as to the identity of the
driver. The license tags on the
automobile had been issued to Rep
reSentative Eberharter, Democrat, of
Pennsylvania and since he was
charged late yesterday with dis
obeying policeman's command and
disregarding a traffic signal a sus-
picious soul might infer that Mr..
Eberharter was driving his own car.
1t was not possible, however, to find
any member of the Police Depart
ment who would say that this was
so, and the Assistant Corporation
Counsel who preferred the charges
insisted that he did not know the
identity Of the man (Mr. Eberharter)
who had been in his Office when the
charges were made.
Presumably, now that charges
have been filed, the case will be
handled in the normal manner.
Either the Congressman will be per-
mitted to forfeit collateral or he will
stand trial and offer such defense
as he may have. But the incident,
though there is precedent for it, will
not sit well with the people of Wash
ington, for it is another demonstra-
ton of the fact that the residents
of this voteless Capital of the United
States enjoy something less than a
status Of equality with the men who
are sent here from the States to
oversee the administration of their
affairs.
