OPA Objects To Jan. 8 Hearing;
 Audits SS. Books

JUNEAU, Dec. 5-The fact that the date of January 8, set for the ,reopening of the rate hearing, will not allow sufficient time to make the necessary analysis of prospec- tive costs for 1946, was made the basis of a protest on the part of the Alaska OPA office it was an- nounced today by Mildred R. Her mann, Alaska director.
 It was pointed out that slow mails and the holiday season will greatly impede contact and con- Sultation with the Territory's merchants and business people.
 The trend of the hearings just adjourned in Seattle shows defin- ite likelihood of an increase in freight rates up to one hundred percent, according to OPA off cialS who attended. Due to the urgency of the situation as re- vealed in wires received from Territorial price executive Donald O'Connor.
 George Rogers, senior economist of the Alaska OPA, left Juneau today to assist O'Connor in Seat tie. An OPA audit of the steam ship companies books is already under way to check their claim of necessity for increased rates.
 In the meantime 1946 estimates are being sought by questionnaire to all Alaska merchants in an at tempt to confirm OPA's claim that the company's alleged marked cost increases will be offset by the much greater freight and passen- ger traffic anticipated in postwar Alaska. Cooperation of all Alaska businessmen by prompt reply to the questionnaire they will receive shortly was urged by the Alaska director.

Russia Again
 Rejects Iranian Plea For Troops

TERRAIN, Dec. S. (P Rus sians refused the second note of the Iran government to permit the entrance of additional Iranian troops into the troubled north western province of Azerbaijan. The new Soviet note came during tense political situation. The Iranian Premier Hakimi is threat ening to resign unless the dispute over the province is settled by direct negotiation with Moscow.
 Iranian troops ordered into the province, which is the scene of a local autonomy movement, still are bivouacked at Sharifabed, where they were halted November twentieth by the Russians. Soviet troops have occupied the province since 1941, when they were sent to guard the Russian lend lease supply line.

Search For Six Storm Battered Planes

PORTLAND, Ore, Dec. 5-(R)- Ground and air patrols search the storm battered Pacific Northwest and Alaska for survivors of six planes missing in the past ten days.

ClO Rejects
 Proposals For Ending Strikes

PITTSBURGH, Dec. 5 (P) - Philip Murray, CIO, rejected President Truman's proposals for ending strikes, and charged the Federal Administration "c m pletely ignored human rights" in current industrial problems.
 In an outright break with the Administration, Murray asserted, as he addressed a prepared ra- diO address, "The design of the organizations He added Ut can be put as the first step for ever more savage repression, and for this reason CIO shall mobilize it's entire membership and the Amer ican people to defeat this specific measure and all similar attempts directed against labor"
 The CIO leader declared the administration had embarked "upon a policy of continued ap- peasement to American industry. In the face of it's contemptouous attitude toward American people and the government itself"
 This was Murrays reply to the Presidents message to Congress calling for legislation which would create fact-finding commits sions to inquire into major dis putes. The President at the same time called on CIO JAW, to go back to work and appealed to CIO United Steel workers, of which Murray is also the president.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 5-(P- CLOS open break with the admin istration aligned labor's big three in solid formidable opposition against President Truman'S pro gram for fact finding as a means to end industrial strife. Congress Sional leaders haStened to deter mine how seriously this united front among CIO, AFL, and UNIV would threaten the enactment of the law which President Truman asked for in a special message, but they went ahead with plans to draft the bill to carry out his pro- gram.

Choice of a Secretary

The liberal New York daily PM says,
 President Roosevelt has again advised labor leaders that they can have new Secretary of Labor as soon as they can agree on someone acceptable to both the AFL and the CIO."
 We rather hope that all parties con- cerned with labor, and not just the two biggest associations of unions, will "have" a new secretary if and when one is ap- pointed. Certainly the choice should be a person conversant with labor's prob lenls, but it hardly seems that the choice should be entirely up to Messrs Green and Murray.
 A cabinet officer is an assistant and advisor to the President, and partakes of some delegated powers of the Presl- dent, who is the chief executive Of the government and all it's people. We can imagine the stir in liberal circles if the President chose Secretary of Commerce on the basis of his acceptability to the National Association of Manufacturers and the United States Chamber Of Com- merce.

and do not talk back to Washington. When the time comes to build more pipe lines they'll spread them across the United States and pump ample petroleum products through them.
 In the meanwhile, there is no lack of interest among "big-oilers" in the United States regarding the possibilities of un- limited oil resources in other parts of the world-for instance, Iran, the Mediter- ranean areas, Canada, Central and South America. In short, these capitalists who have made their fortunes and built them sky-high must be credited with "know- ing their oil." They are willing to guar antee finding plenty of it, when they're given a free hand to sink new wells in many parts of our United States that are no wproducing.

Views Of The Press
THE BERLIN TURNPIKE

l
 In the report of the Highway Ad- visory Commission, currently issued by the state, some light is shed on what the official name of what we commonly call the Berlin cutoff happens to be. ..
 This is more important than 1t seems because 1t has been called by various names.
 On page g of the report 1t is stated:
 "The wilbur Cross PARKWAY is authorized to extend from the Hou- satonic river in Milford to Hart ford. The Wilbur Cross HIGHWAY will extend from East Hartford through to the Massachusetts state line.
 "These two projects differ in sev- eral respects. The Parkway section is (which excludes commercial vehi- cles) is being paid for from toll re- ceipts collected on the Merritt Park way plus 5 per cent of the motor vehicle receipts. It is estimated that approximately $4,500.00O will have accrued by 1945 to resume comple- ton of this parkway as soon as ma terials and labor are released by the War Production Board
 The Wilbur Cross Highway. on the other hand, is for use by all classes of vehicles and must be com- pleted from funds made available by the motor vehicle fees. Some sec- tions of 1t have already been com l pleted
 So that's 1t! From this one con- cludes that eventually the parkway | through Berlin, when completed from the Housatonic to Hartford, will be for pleasure vehicles only, with the trucks maneuvering on U. s. 5.
 The State Highway Department has been saying for years that a modern road is needed for the heavy trafiic between Hartford and New Haven. The trafflc includes trucks. Now, according to this report. the great new road that has been start ed from North Haven and Hartford, of which the Berlin cutoff is to be a part, will exclude commercial vehi- cles"; of course. when completed. (At present trucks hse the Berlin cutoff. 1t being part of route 8,

imagination. A mill employing thou- sands of people is the lengthening shadow of some man who saved his money, persuaded others to lend him money, and then set to work to make @ dream come true. The achievements of men and women are often but lengthening shadows of certain teachers whom they en- countreed in grade school or col- lege. Our republic Is the lengthen- ing shadow of Washington and the brave colonial fathers. A united na- ton is the heightened shadow Of Abraham Lincoln.
 The lesson for us here is three fold. First, always accord due rever- ence to creative personalities. Soc- ond, when you want to make an enterprise successful. be sure to get the right man to run 1t. Third. if you want to be happy. set to work right now to make yourself the kind of person in whose lengthening shadow people in future years will find com fort, security, and inspiration.

How's Your Oil and Gas?

1a Fifty years ago if you wanted pint of benzine you took your twenty-five cent piece and went over to the drug store and had quart bottle filled. The stuff really was grandparent to gasoline. About eighty-f1ve years ago the first flowing oil-well was drilled in Ttusvile, Pennsyl- vania, but it was not until 1901 that the Middle Atlantic States became important producers. They were to be followed by discoveries in Texas, California and Okla homa. Byt he Spring of 1941 the United States had the worlds richest oil fields
 The United States was at that time pro- ducing 1 IA billion barrels annually. In recent years there have been many rich discoveries in oil in far North Canada to fartheSt South in Latin America. About the middle of January the U s. Geological Survey became rather enthusiastic over possible new treasure in oil-Wells, from north-central New Mexico over about 4.7OO square miles" across valleys, basins and several mountain ranges.
 All of this is very interesting in view of the bewailing of some branches of the Federal Government in Washington that our petroleum will all be exhausted with in a very few years. Practical men in the oil business say that such wears are all bunk - and these practical business men, year or two ago, backed the state ment of the president of one of the oil companies, when he said that his com panies had proof that there was suffi- cient oil underground in the United States for the next three hundred years-an- other Standard tycoon said, "a thousand years.
 Perhaps there has ben more money ~cleaned up" in the oil business in the past forty-ive years than from any other Industry in the United States. The lead CTS in the petroleum industry have not favored tight-rationing of gasoline during the war but they are practical bunch
