ALASKA OVERSEAS

It's sometimes difficult to understand just how
officials in Washington go about classifying Alaska.
year or SO ago when some Alaskans were OBJ
ectng to postal opening their mall officials
declared that the regulations called for censorng of
all mail headed overseas or into foreign" countries.
Governor Gruening protested that one and was sue
cessfu in securing hearing, in the course of which
the regulations were relied upon and Alaska was de-
clared overseas
Now the War Department in setting the number
of points allowed for men in the armed services,
dgtides that residents of Alaska serving in the armed
forces in Alaska shall not get points for overseas
service although resident of the States serving in
Alaska would get the extra points.
The Governor also is protesting this to the War
Department. And it is believed that a good many
vsalas kans will join in the protest fundamentally
-- Certainly a resident of Juneau serving on Attu
Island entitled to points if resident of
Seattle serving in Ketchkan is entitled to such
.,points.

new Renner Government in Austria,
created by the Russians overnight.
Stains explanation was that the
Austrian people have proved their
worth, that the situation demanded
great speed, and so Stain saw no
objection to their establishing their
own government.
Of course, under Yalta, it was
stipulated that new governments
in the liberated areas were not to
be set up without consultation be-
tween the Big Three" Probably
also cable from Moscow to
London and Washington would
have secured immediate approval
of Karl Renner as the new Chan
cellor of Austria. But this advance
notice was not given.
Stain also explained, in reply to
the Truman Churchill inquiry. that
the situation in Rumania was des-
peraoe, that there were serious dis
orders, that the RadeScu Govern
ment had deceived the Rumanian
people and they themselves wanted
an immediate change. He also eX-
planned that Pennsylvania had been
given to Rumania without con-
sulting Britain and the United
States in order to consolidate the
new Rumanian Government and
give it support with all political
! factions.
In regard to Yugoslavia and the
Yalta pledge to reorganize the
! Yugoslav Parliament, Stain eX-
planned that no time limit has been
set in the Yalta Agreement (Which
is correcb and that these reforms
would be carried out at the proper
time.

1t is either amusing nfuriatng' depending
upon what mood you happen to be in to read john
L. Lewis dscoursing on how everybody else is wrong
and he is right The dictator of mine labor is author
of some observations in Golfers magazine on the
present state of labor and the union.
If other labor groups followed the principles OF
his mine workers, Lewis says, everything would be
lovely He mentions elimination of racketeering, full
financial statements the right of union members to
free ballot and protection for the individual against
abuse of power by officials.
For the benefit of those who may have come in
late perhaps we should explain that the districts OF
the United Mine Workers SO organized that many
of them cannot even elect their own officias-Lews
himself appoints the Chairmen and, of course, the
treasurers-and the last member of the union who
dared question this setup at the UNIV convention
here had his meeting disrupted by Lewis henchmen
and was beaten up by strong squad and finally,
as we recall was expelled from the union. This one
illustration we think, about covers all OF the points
Lewis enumerated in the paragraph above.
Lewis also blames the government and other labor
groups for labor strife 1t is Lewis, of course who
has divided every labor movement he has been a
member of UP to the present. 1t is Lewis, with the
UNIV votes in his pocket, who has caused the most
serious crises of war production the nation has
undergone since the start of the war. 1t is Lewis
who has been mainly responsible for the loss Of
more hours of labor in coal production soppages
than have been wasted in any other industry 1t is
Lewis who has insisted and the war bedamned,
that the wage ceilings be aside in his favor while
most other labor groups of the country cooperated
with the government.
1t is Lewis who-oh, why go on?

HOROSCOPE "The stdrs incline
 bat do not compep
FRIDAY, JUNE 1

Benefic aspects rule on this day which is suspicious for government aims and department heads. The public mind may be subject to con- fusing ideas on world affairs.
 HEART AND HOME
 This is a favorable date for plan ming. It encourages optimism and good judgment Although railway travel is subject to restrictions, there will be again great numbers of tourists in Mexico.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Prosperity is to continue even longer than has been predicted. The waste of war will be so great that restoration to normal conditions will engage the talents and energies of great numbers of Americans. Vast factory outputs are foretold from converted wartime industries.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 Suspicion and distrust concerning foreign nations must be overcome at this time when aid and cooperation are of paramount importance. Sub versiye propaganda will be prevalent and in places dangerously effective.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 The complete defeat of Germany gives impetus to Nazi plans for un- derground activities. Since April there have been warning signs of subversive propaganda aimed at our finances, our educational methods and our diplomatic policies.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of good luck under the dominant planet Jupiter. Full employment of energies and talents is imperative.
 Children born on this day may be gifted with great possibilities but careful guidance will be of first im- portance.

especially Poland, along her border.
 This is the general background of the Polish controversy. This background does not necessarily condone the arrest of the Is Poles, the Red Armys dog-in- n-the-manger policy in Berlin, or various other Soviet mistakes. But it does show how strongly the Russians feel just as strongly as we did when Wilson sent Gen. Pershing into Mexico to arrest and kill lot more than 16 followers of Gen. Pancho Villa.
 Villa, incidentally, had killed 16 Americans. The Russians also claim that the 16 arrested Poles had killed 100 members of the Red Army. Nobody from this distance can get the straight of the con- troversy any more than we can understand the intricacies of Mexi- can politics-eXcept for the fact. It is known that British Ambas- sador Sir Archibald Clark Kerr, while in San Francisco, told British Foreign Minister Eden that at least three of the 16 Poles were questionable Fascists. tOne is re- puted to be a British agent now disavowed by London)
 Kerr also told Eden he thought the missing Is Poles were poor issue on which to make a show down fight. Kerr even tried to per- suade Soviet-hating U. s. Ambas- sador Averill Hartman that the United States was wrong on the question; but he made no progress.
 Eden and Hartman both took the stand that the issue was not the Poles, but the way the Russians had handled the matter. In regard to this, of course, they were tech- nically right. The Russians have bungled the matter, but so have we. The Polish question was supposed to be ironed out after Yalta by commission composed of Molotov, Hartman and Kerr. However, Kerr who understands the Russians, got an eye infection and was sent to a hospital. By the time he was back at the conference table, Churchill had issued orders to crack down on Russia regarding Poland.
 Some Americans who sat with Roosevelt at Yalta believe that U. S.-British diplomats made a great mistake in not following up the Yalta Agreement with detailed discussions immediately. We waited too long. Meanwhile, the thing cooled. Other influences got to
