Stiff Penalties For Theft Of U. s. Property

Headquarters, Alaskan Depart ment-In connection with the dis posal of surplus Government property, the Commanding Gen eral of the Alaskan Department today informed all military per sOnnel and civilian employees of the Government in the Territory that severe penalties would be inn posed on anyone found guilty of theft of United States property. He made it clear that this type of theft is a federal offense, and is punishable by fines of $5,O00 to $1O,OOO and imprisonment rang ing from to 10 years.
 Placards signed by It. Gen. Elm mons, calling attention to the pen alties attaching to the theft or misappropriation of Government property, are being pos te d throughout the area on all build ings and enclosures containing Government property.
 It was pointed out that civilians should not accept any Govern ment property without first inves- tigating it's origin. A spokesman for the Commanding General said that stolen Government property, even though it is later bought by an innocent purchaser, must be returned to the Government.
 It was emphasized that anyone possessing Government property should have a valid receipt from either an Army Salvage officer, the Reconstruction Finance Cor poration, or the Surplus Property Board of the Department Of the Interior.

Jews In Protest
 Strike In Palestine

JERUSALEM, Nov. IA P -
 A twelve-hour general strike in protest of new British proposals for settling the Palestine problem, started at noon without incident. All Jewish shops, restaurants, work shops, and factories closed. Jewish operated buses and taxis stopped. Jewish workers in essen- tial services were requested to continue work.
 Military camps, hospitals, the post office, telegraph and broad casting stations. There is wide spread objection throughout Pal estine to the statement of Foreign Secretary Bevin that Britain and United States would jointly at tempt to solve the difficulties and that eventually Palestine will most likely be placed under the trusteeship of Britain. At present Britain governs Palestine under a League of Nations mandate.

Alaska Steampship Faces Fleet Tie-up

SEATTLE, Nov. IA H1 The Alaska Steamship Company's pas senger fleet faced a complete tie up, with the exception of its S.S. Alaska, due to a dispute between the company and the marine cooks and stewards association, over holding steward department meetings in passenger dining rooms.
 The Alaska is said to have ex- tra space for crew gatherings at sea. The S.S. Baranof, due to sail tomorrow, was given an indefinite sailing time. The status of the S.S. Yukon, tied up a week ago, the company said, and other passenger ships will be affected, unless a settlement is reached before sail ing dates.

MOSQUITO WIGGLERS
 DROWN IN DOT

When mosquito breeding ponds are treated with DOT, the wig glers or larvae get cramps and, like many human swimmers sim , ilarly afflicted, drown.
 The discovery of this effect of DOT on the larvae of malaria mosquitoes was made by John D, Maple, formerly of the Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quaran- tine, U. s. Dept. of Agriculture. Maple was killed while fighting mosquitoes on Okinawa last June.
 The symptoms of DOT poison ing of the wigglers of malaria mosquitoes, he reported, are "ex- cessive swimming along the water surface and occasional tremors, followed by sinking"
 Whether or not the wiggler gets enough DOT poison to kill it out right, it sinks and tries to strug- gle back to the surface for aid but is not able to make it, and so droWnS.
 Although the best mosquito killer ever discovered, DOT is not | the fastest. In Department of Az riculture studies, microscopic crystals of DOT have been fed to individual mosquitoes. Many of the insects lived for hours, but died in a day or less. Death was always sure.

Domei reported that after the
opening ceremonies, Masataka Ota,
chairman of the house war relief
measures committee, in formal
inquiry on governmental policy,
said there is considerable vague
ness as to who is primarily respon-
sible for the conduct of the war"

were cooperating closely with each
other. 1.-THE permier is merely a
participant in discussions at i'm

Under the japanese system, the
army and navy are responsible on

government, but Ota said, 1.-The ma
ton believes the premier should be

OLD FOX GIVES
DARE TO CR0NIN

WASHINGTON, June 9 - Up -
The lowly Washington Senators
are getting high-falutin ideas-they
want to knock off Dave FERRIS.
pitching sensation of the Boston
Red Sox.
And the rookie mound battle of
the year is shaping up for next
Friday night between Ferriss and
the Senator's diminutive freshman
Marino Pieretti.
Owner Clark Griffith Of the Sena-
tors has written his son-in-law,
Joe Cronin, manager of the Red
Sox, challenging him to pit Fer
riss against Pieretti.
"Cronin is a pretty tough guy
himself and likes a good scrap
so I'm sure he'll accept this chal-
lenge," Griffith said, with one eye
cooked on the box office.
Since Ferriss came out of serv-
ice, he has hurled eight straight
wins without a defeat and lifted
the Red Sox up into the pennant
race.
Pieretti's record reads SO but
the little hurler has established
himself as a clutch performer.
He moved down big Al Benton
Detroit Tiger ace, in a 10 duel
after Benton had won five IT,
row He beat the Philadelphia
43, in II innings, and
the Yankees once went 10 innings
to nose him, 81.
Ferriss, in winni ng eight
straight, already has tied the Am
erican League record for a first
year pitcher. Hooks Wiltse of the
old New York Giants ran up II
wins before he lost one in 1904,
but Wiltse started his streak with
three victories in relief roles.
The American League mark tied
by Ferriss was set originally by
Johnny Whitehead, freshman ace
Of the Chicago White Sox, in 1885.

The Pirates punched Red Bar

again in the fifth when Barrett
scored as Bob Elliott flied deep

Nearing Showdown

that more classification is needed

Big Five had failed to answer
specifically number of questions
put to them by little countries on
how it would work.
Evatt spoke several times. So
did Americas delegate, Senator
Tom Connally D-Tex.) in rebuttal.
Some small countries, at least,
already were persuaded that full
veto authority is necessary. Peru
Wan Foreign Minister Manuel Gal
lagher, for example, backed it at
a news conference.
l. Repeating some Of the argu-
ments the great powers themselves
have made, Gallagher remarked
that the veto had been removed
from election of judges to world
court, that the big nations have the
preponderance of military power,
and that SO long as they stick
together there will be peace.
"God help u.s." he said, If fun
damental differences develop
among the big ones"
The fact that the United States
will have veto assures there
won't be abuse of an inter-Ameri-
can security system through undue
interference by the security coun-
Gil, Gallagher said, adding:
1--WE want to nave our brothers,
not strangers, spank us if we are
bad"
A move by some of his Latin
American colleagues to ease the
way for future amendments to
world charter was blocked tenn
porarily when an American spokes-
man said a Mexican motion, back
ed by Ecuador, would prevent rati-
fication by the United States SEN
ate.
Mexico suggested that any future
conference on charter revision be
allowed to adopt it's own rules on
how amendments would become
effective. That would collide with
Big Five veto power over amend
ments.
Supported by the British, Hamil-
ton Fish Armstrong, an American
adviser, said the United States
could not agree to leave the char
ter open for modific ations which
might alter big power response
bility for maintaining peace.
A subcommittee left the matter
up in the air for the time being.
Secretary of State Stettinius took
time out for an overnight rest at
a retreat in the country. He ar
ranged to return to San Francisco
late tomorrow.
Whipping the security councils
voting formula into final shape is
the heaviest single task remaining
for the conference. A few angles
of a trusteeship system for de-
pendent areas of the world still
have to worked out.

ed States and British Empire serv-
ice stars
The roster includes a number of
former Davis Cup players and in
ternationally known stars like

coming.
The war put an end to competi-
tive tennis at Wimbledon in 1885,
A German bomb took large
chunk out of the main grandstand
in front of the center court, but
otherwise the place was undam-
aged.
Sgt. Hare, who before moving to
Chicago was a member of the
English Davis Cup team, will cap
tain the American squad.
The British team will be cap
tanned by Pat Hughes, who was a
member of the British team that
won back the Davis Cup from
France in 1888.
Lott, five times United States
doubles champion and twice
doubles winner at Wimbledon, is
touring Army posts with Golfer
Horton Smith. Lott is expected to
team up with Capt. John Doeg of
Los Angeles, Calf, former United
States singles champion. Another
