A pamphlet entitled A FAMILY
OF, NATIONS was recently pub
lished by the National Council of
American-Soviet Friendship, Inc.
1t carries an article entitled "Esto-
MAJ, which deals to a certain ex-
tent with all the Baltic States. Its
tone may be seen from the fol-;
lowing excerpt:
After the revolution Of 1917, the
Soviet Government granted inde-
rendence to the Baltic States .
AS soon as they had received
their independence, the Baltic Sta
les established themselves as So
Wet Republics, and then joined the
Soviet Union, but in 1917-1918 they
were invaded by Germans and fore
IDLY torn from the Soviet Union.
q. During the period of sep
aration, the Baltic States sank into
deep poverty, were cut off from
their source of supply and also
from their markets. Their great
ports and railroads fell into dis
use . -. . Many times the people of
the Baltic States revolted and tried
to re-establish their Soviet Gov
erment 49,.
". Loyal to their Soviet Re-
rublics, the people of the Baltic
States resisted all efforts on the
part of the Germans to entice or
compel them to fight on their
side =. ;" opp. 22-24).
Gross Misrepresentation
Every one of these sentences is
gross Misrepresentation Of the
truth, at least so far as Lithuania
is concerned. We feel obliged,
therefore, to counteract such crude
propaganda by presenting the truth:
There was no granting Of inde-
penderce" to Lithuania by the So
viets. Although the principle Of
national self-determination was
acknowledged by Lenin in theory,
Lithuania, together with adjoining
territories, was ceded by Russia to
Germany by the Treaty Of Brost-
Litovsk March 5, 1919 regardless
of the fact that on February 16,
1918. the Lithuanian nation through
its National Council had proclaim
ed it's independence
E After post Armistice period Of
Lithuanian resistance to attempted
Bolshevik invasions, a treaty of
peace was signed on July 90, 1920,
between Lithuania and the Soviet
Union as equal partners, whereby
the Soviet Union recognized (rot
'grantedD Lithuania's independence,
renouncing for all time all preten
sions to Lithuania's territory or to
her people.
AS for the establishment of
Lithuania as Soviet Republic,
such status had never appealed
to the Lithuanian nation, as is
demonstrated by the Declaration of
independence and the activity of
the Constituent Assembly. In 1918
as now. Soviet rule was carried to
Lithuana by Soviet bayonets alone.
''Poverty', myth
During her period of independ-
ence, Lithuania, far from Sinking
into deep poverty, achieved a
standcrd of living much higher
than she experienced during the
period Of her subjection to Russia,

STUBBORN BLAZE
 IS FOUGHT HARD
 IN ELLINGEN APIS

A blaze of undetermined origin but starting around chimney in the middle front suite on the sec- ond floor of the Ellingen Apart ments, Third and Gold, kept the members of the Juneau Volunteer Fire Department on the job for over an hour and half last night. The alarm l-3 was sounded at 7:3C o'clock and the out signal was short ly after o'clock.
 The flames were kept 10 the apartment in which they originated but smoke throLs .lout the building and water soaking through the floors did damage estimated by h. surance Agent Stan Grummett of about $2,000.
 Under direction of Fire Chief Minard Mill, the boys spread tar paulin to prevent excessive damage to furnishings by dripping water.
 It is believed that with heat op- erating, apartments will be dried soon, airing will clear the smoky atmosphere and tenants will soon be at home.

N0RTHWtyT AIRLINES
 STUDYING NEW TYPE
 OF PLANE IN q. PAUL

ST. PAUL, Minn., Dec. = The Northwest Airlines revealed today it's engineers are studying a newtype airplane, the 48-passenger Douglas DC-8 Skybus, with concealed motors and with propellers in the tail, for possible use on the airline'S trans continental Mort Invest Passage routes.
 Plans for the new aircraft, not yet in production, were discussed at headquarters here by George E. Gardner, vice president-operations; K. R, Ferguson, vice president-en- gineering and planning; D. o. Ben son, superintendent of aircraft en- gineering, all of Northwest; and E. F. Burton, chief engineer. and A. B. Croshere, preliminary design engin- ger, of the Douglas Company.
 While Northwest Airlincs has made no commitments to purchase the plane, Gardner said it is possible the Skybus will prove suitable re- placement for the 21-passenger DC-3 on some Northwest flights.
 The plane has a cruising speed of 270 miles an hour at 10000 feet, with payload of 12,000 pounds. Its wing span is 110 feet and the aircraft measures 77 feet from nose to tail.
 Design of the Skybus provides for two engines concealed in the nose of the plane, leaving the wings free and iNducing wind resistance. Sixty foot long shafts lead from the en- zines to two propellers in the tail.
 Gardner explained the Skybus is the commercial counterpart of the XB42 bomber, which carried bomb load almost equal to that of the famed B-29 Superfortress.

B IS A FAMILY IS LAUGH-5pREE
 TONIGHT, CAPITOL

If you live in one of the small towns of America, you may be an ether Clark Gable, Rosalind Russell CT Bob Hope. If you don't believe it, just ask film producer Sol Les SGT, whose latest film, the laugh ing-spree = 8 Is A Family" open ing at the Capitol tonight for a 3-day run. Lesser is scouting for talent and searching small towns is nothing new, but he found Cherl
 Walker right in the middle of Hollywood, and Lon McCallister at the studios back door. Both are in the present film.
 Producer David O. Selznick found Eric Sinclair while the latter was on visit to Hollywood, and Dor othy Garner when she was selling cigarettes in Hollywood night club
 B Is A Family" is what MT. Les ser calls story of careless stork with babies arriving willy nilly dur ing war without any respect for circumstances, such as housing shortages, expectant papas doing duty in the armed services, hard hearted landlords, maid problems, and so on.
 Charlie Ruggles, veteran stage and screen comedian, plays Grand pa, with Fay Bainter a charming Grandma, and Marjorie Reynolds and Fred Brady the proud parents of the cutest pair of identical twins ever to be shown in a film play. They are Donna and Elissa Lamb ertson, aged nine months apiece. Some others in the excellent cast are Helen Frederick, whose ready wit matches well with that of Charlie Ruggles, Arthur Lake, Miss Jeff Donnell, Hattie McDaniel, Walter Catlett, Else Jansen, Warren Hy- mer and John Philliber

normal, and it is believed that an average escapement resulted.
 The Pink run in the lower Inlet was much better than average for the odd year cycle and the impor- tant Pink streams in this area ap- peared to have an excellent seed- ing. No large escapement of Chums was observed in any part of the Inlet, but most of the smaller streams observed carried Chum spawners.
 The increase in the Red salmon pack at Kodiak is attributed to the excellent runs of this species at Red River and Olga Bay. The runs into these areas were exceptionally good, particularly Red River, which pro- duced a commercial catch of 658,O0O salmon.
 While the weir count at Red River did not quite equal this number, the oscapement is considered ample. The Karluk run was disappointing some- what, with a catch of about 589, ,000 salmon and an escapement of about 660ooo. The escapement and con- mercial catch at Olga Bay were 347o00 and 568,000 respectively. The Pink and Chum runs at Kodiak did not develop to normal proportions until after the beginning of August, causing considerable anxiety by all concerned. However, with good runs of Pinks coming into the Alitak area, as well as into most of the important Pink salmon producing bays on the island and on the main- land for the remainder of the sea- son, a Pink pack of 49I ,000 cases resulted However, with the type of seine boat and seine gear generally in use in the Kodiak district, which are capable of being operated in the shallow waters in the heads of bays and off the spawning streams, the area was heavily fished with the re- suit that the withdrawal of the pop ulations were too great in certain areas, thereby leaving some of the streams poorly populated with spaWners.
 The Red salmon runs at Chignik were very light throughout the sea- son. In attempt to protect the spawning population the season was suspended from August 9 to Septem- Der l, nevertheless the Red escape ment was poor. The escapement of other species was close to average.
 The Pink and Chum runs on the south side of the Alaska Peninsula were particularly weak and failed to develop in strength until the last few days of fishing. The re- sulting packs of both species were only half normal and the Pink pack was less than the poor pack result ing from this cycle in 1943. Obser- yations and surveys of the spawning grounds showed that the run con- tinued to come in after fishing term mated and the area as a whole had very good seeding of Pinks. Chums Tn lesser numbers were fairly well distributed throughout. While heavy seeding resulted in some sec tions, it is the opinion that the dis tricts as a whole would not have supported an additional take.
