AIuddin's Lamp

You know it as a vacuum tube like those in
your radio Research and engineering have put this
modern Aladdin's Lamp TO work in thousands Of
ways In Radar and many of the mracle-worklng
tools of war it had major role and its peace
time uses in the field of elecrronics destined to
be equally amazing.
The telephone industry, like radio, owes much
to the vacuum tube Hundreds of thousands of them
are in constant use, helping your telephone voice
span great distances Aside from its importance in
telephone service, the vacuum tube symbollzes TO
us the greater needs for telephone communication
as Jobs and industries are born of the science Of
electronics.
We arc making every effort to catch up with
present accumulated needs-to provide the great
amounts Of new equipment, new lines and construc-
tion now required-and to build soundly for the
fture-work that means many new jobs.
Highly important is the money to carry out this
far-reaching program. War produced no profit back
log for the telephone industry was one expected

needed. This means that earnings Of the telephone
business must compare satisfactorily with the
earnings of other businesses with which It has 70

Magnuson to eX- press it's entire willingness toward the building of a railroad to Alas ka," Senator Magnuson disclosed to- day. There was no Identification of the Canadian interests.
 The Canadians, he said, are be- lieved to be seeking copies of a railroad survey which United States army engineers made between Prince George, B. C., and Teller, Alaska, via Fairbanks, in l942 and 1943.
 Ever since 1943 there have been periodical revivals of the Alaska railway project. British Columbia officials have talked of American interests seeking the Pacific Great Eastern railway in British Columbia but the identity of any such parties has never been announced. More recently, reports were current of a joint assumption of the Pacific Great Eastern by the Canadian Pac- fife and Canadian National rail- ways.

 Ranking was filled with frantic political discussion on the eve of the postponed opening.
 With the Communists not only refusing to accept Chiang Kali sheks truce bid but sending some oi their delegates hack to Yenan headquarters, the Assembly would comprise only Kuomintang Gov ernment Party) delegates and thus be doomed at the outset in it's ob- jectfve To unite China and give her a representative government under a revised constitution.
 There were reports in some quar- ters that the Communists chief negc ctiator, Cou En-lai, would re- turn to Yenan for instructions.
 In the background were charges by both the Government and Com munists that fighting ragged on some of Chinas civil war fronts. Chiang, seeking basis for peace, had ordered all Government troops to cease fire last Monday noon. The Communists ignored the offer.

GREW MAY BE CALLED,
 WAR TRIAL
Credibi|ity Regarding Ger lain Statements Ques-
 tioned in Tokyo

TOKYO, Nov. l4-Defense ques- tioning of former Ambassador Jos eph c. Crews credibility today pro- voked the prosecution to call him to testify at the International War Crimes trial if his health permits.
 Grew, who was ambassador to Japan in the 10 years preceding Pearl Harbor and was interned at the start of the war, has given af- fidavits to both the prosecution and defense at his Washington, D. c. home. The defense contends DOT tions of the prosecutions affidavit, made last May, contradicts portions of the defense statement, made two weeks ago, and of Crews book "10 Years in Japan"
 Climaxing afternoon-long heated arguments, the Tribunal President, Sir William Webb, asked the de- fense if further interrogations could not be conducted at Crews home unless his credibility is questioned. :"
 T am sure his credibility will be questioned promptly responded de- fense attorney G. A, Furness.
 Webb said he though a majority of the 11-member tribunal seemed to be against" bringing Grew here, but he would entertain a defense motion to bring him as defense witness. The defense objected that Grew in such circumstances would be hostile witness and said 1t preferred to cross examine him as prosecution witness.
 Chief Prosecutor Joseph B. Kee- nan agreed to ask Grew to come to Tokyo, but said he still believed the former ambassador health would not permit him to make the trip.

ALASKA RAIL. FACILITIES TO
 bEExTENDED
Big Development Reveal ed by New Purchase
 0rder-Seuei Plans

SEATTLE, Nov 14-Secrecy to- day cloaked what happened to be one of the biggest developments Of Alaska rail facilities in the Ter ritory's history, was disclosed to- day, but secrecy cloaked many of the details.
 Extent of the activity was indi- cated through disclosure by O. c. Bradean, Regional Director of the War Assets Administration, that the Alaska Railroad has arranged to purchase a total of $7,766, 900 of rolling stock, motive power and road facilities.
 Included in the 1,500 pieces of equipment, he said, were 480 troop sleeper cars, with a valuation of approximately $13,000 each, 500 flat cars, 500 gondolas, 30 diesel loco-
 motives and seven steam locomo- tives.
 Earlier indications of contem- plated increased Alaska rail ser vice have included a disclosure by Sen. Warren G. Magnuson (D- Wash) that Army engineers made a secret survey during the war of a projected line between Fairbanks
 and Teller, on the Boring Sea, and a statement here by Col. J. P. Johnson, Manager of the Gov
 ernment-owned Alaska Railroad that extensions" were planned. f The Seattle Times said that Colonel Johnson, reached by tele- phone at Anchorage yesterday, said he was not free to disclose the nature of all the work. Asked to . what use so many sleepers would be put, he replied: They will be used for the pur- poses for which they were origin ally designed-conversio to freight cars"
 Asked if all the cars would be converted, Johnson said they would not but would be used as
 needed. Colonel Johnson said here recently a five-year expansion program for the 470-mile line ex- tending now only from Seward to Fairbanks in the Interior was planned.
 Bids to move the entire equip
 ment North, one of the largest
 shipping contracts ever originating here, will be called next Monday. More than l,500 pieces of equip ment, weighing more than 25,00O tons, are involved
 Johnson said in the telephone conversation he was unaware of , any projected construction by pri- vate interests of a line through : British Columbia and the Yukon Territory to Alaska but it was learned here, the Times said, that a representative of New York concern interested in such line was here last week. He asked that ; his identity be kept secret. He declined to reveal the scope of his
 company's plans but did not deny that a railroad was being con- templated, the Times said.

Larry Dubois Rescued by Coast Guard Panels
 Aboard WdChusett

No trace of the three missing hunters from the halibut boat Crosa Sound has been found though thl search is still Icing carrisd on in the Snug Cove area of Gambler Bay.
 Larry Dubois of Juneau, has been rescued by Coast Guard airplane and put aboard the USCG Wachu- sett, while his hunting partner Perry Beebe is enroute to Juneau with the boat
 The following telegram was re- ceived direct from the Wachusett in answer to query from the En- pire

 I. Goldstein received a message by radio from the Cross Sound las. evening which said that the search would be continued in that arsa to- day for some trace of the skipper, J. Russell Elliott, his stepson Jimmy Scvdi and Donnie Rhodes, who have been missing since Monday night and are believeda drowned.
 Monday ait-inoon Bert LyEeck was i'll Snug Cove. and stopped to speak to Elliott on the Cross Sound told Lybeck then that he was about to go ashore in the skiff to pick up young Rhodes and Sovdi, who had been cut hunting. No one has seen any of the three since, TOT has any trace of their bodies been located as yet. However, in the Tuesday night report from the Cross Sound. it vas stated that an overturned skiff had been found.
 A special report from the Coast Guard headquarters to the parents of Larry Dubois, who is owner of BlaCky's Bar and had gone hunt ing with Perry Beebc, read as fol- lows:
 "Cocst Guard alane has located LarrJ Dutcis end has deliYercd h'n' c5cGrd he WochuSett His genera. 7ec,th is jc.r.'
 This report was broadcast over KINY, local radio station, last eve- ming. The latest message from the Wachusett still does not explain what happened to Dubois and Beebe, but friends locally believed that Beebes boat may have run into trouble with the bad weather of the past two days.
 The Red Clark mentioned in the telegram from the Wachusett is L. H. Clark, co-owner of Juneau Welding and Machine Shop on Wiiloughby Avenue. With Clark when he left Juneau last week was the Rev. Peter Nickel of the Doug les Bible Church, reported L. E. Linehan, Clark's partner at Juneau Welding.
 Reports circulating in Junear that a body had been located q, Gambler Bay are erroneous.

The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON-M important question to be decided at the Re- publican organization meetings to be held on Capitol Hill today will be the time -honored matter Of seniority" In other words, does the ablest man sit as chairman of a committee or the party hack with the "mostest7 service?
 This was one thing which handi- capped Congress under the Demo- crats. The old-timers usually were Southern conservatives who, because of seniority, were given charge of important committees.
 The Republicans have a real chance to change this. In the first place, a new broom can always sweep clean. Secondly, there was much talk when the Congressional Reorganization Act was passed about abolishing seniority.
 If committee chairmen were picked on the basis of brains, not seniority, hard-working, trigger brained Albert J. Engel of Muske- gon, Mich, would be Chairman of the important Appropriations Con- mittee, instead of moss-back Con- gressman John Taber of Auburn, N. Y. Engeps watchfui eye or War Department spending was de- scribed by Gen. George Marshall as one of the healthiest influences on the Army.
