NEWMARkER ENDS MARINE
 INSp. DUTIES
Chief Retires After 26 Years al lnspe1tof's
 Post in Alaska

Following 26 years of continuous service as United States Marine Inspector, It. Comdr. John A. Newmarket, USCGR, has stepped out as head of the Marine h. spection office here and over onto the retired list.
 Chief" Newmarker, as he is more generally known in and about Juneau, reached the mandatory retirement age of 70 years on his last birthday, Sept. 26. Since then he has been holding on at his post here, awaiting the arrival of his relief
 This week he was officially re- lieved = at least as far as the Marine Inspection Service is con- cerned-by It. Comdr. Howard Sol loway, USCGR. However, Comdr. Newmarket is still on active duty with the Coast Guard, the war time overseers of the inspection service.
 Chief Newmarker is just going to take it easy, right here in Ju- neau, after he finally doffs his uniform. He and Mrs. Newmarket will keep busy between their home in Juneau and their cabin out the road. Their son Jack is following in his fathers footsteps, in the U. s. Merchant Marine School, Long Island, N. Y.
 Chief Newmarket launched his career as a real seafaring man, sailing the high seas on many ships. Born in Pennsylvania, his family moved to Seattle, where he finished school For while he confined his voyaging to Puget Sound vessels, then moved up to ocean sailing-on dozens of ships, he says.
 Never a uecK saIlor, he worked his way up the engineroom ladder to the rating of Chief Engineer. During the first World War he saw service in the Army Transport Command. Following that turn at hostilities, he served his term of induction into the Marine Inspec- ton Service, at Seattle. Assigned to Alaska duty, he has been here ever since.
 For years, he and Capt. John M. Clark-now It. Comdr Clark, USCGR, stationed at Ketchikan- were the Marine Inspectors for all the Territory. He saw that the

TOKYO, Oct. 10-Liberated po- litical prisoners emerged from be- hind the massive walls of four Japanese prisons today to the ac- claim of welcoming Communist crowds shouting opposition to I'm perial rule-while a newly formed National Federation of Toilers arose to defend the Imperial house and assault the Reds.
 The Japanese Navy's chief pay master, Vice Adm Ushinosuke Yamamoto, meanwhile disclosed that the navy's impounded fortune of several million dollars was ac- quired from conquered nations and from the Japanese people them selves, and was paid for abroad in worthless military currency and at home in promissory notes which never were redeemed.
 Promoters of the newly federation resolved to wage a de- termined fight against Communism which aims at extermination of our unique national policy under the emperor.
 Diet Deliberating
 The federation and another group favoring a drastic overhauling of the Japanese Diet rose suddenly in uneasy Nippon today as the new liberal premier, Baron Kijuro Shi- dehara, told his people in a broad cast:
 'The hold of the military clique and bureaucrats on political power has been broken and all politics and economics will be determined by the will of the majority"

By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON-T inside story of what happened behind closed doors at the Big Five Conference is now leaking out. Actually, from the moment the five foreign min isters sat down, they were in trouble. They never had single profitable session during the three weeks they met. At times the at mosphere became so ragged that both Jimmy Byrnes and Ernest Bevin threatened to walk out. To- ward the end, issues became so be- logged that these men, supposed to be the top statesmen of the United Nations, engaged in wild, irrespon- sible statements.
 As usual at recent Allied confer ences, the American delegation didn't know exactly what it wanted and didn't know how to get it. American diplomats were content to play defensive game. The British knew what they wanted, but were afraid to make the moves necessary to get it. Therefore, they tried to act as mediators, keeping friendly with both the L. s. and the U. s. s. R. and coming off fairly well except for clustering Foreign Minister Bevin, who lost his temper repeatedly. President Truman, after Potsdam, described Bevin as the rudest man I ever met"
 The Russians knew what they wanted, and came prepared to sabotage and obstruct until they got it.
 Discussion got so bitter that at one time, Molotov proposed that
