REPUBLICANS NOW FACING
 OWN STRIFE
Results of Victory Soured by Expected Fights
 in Top Spots

WASHINGTON, Nov. T. The prospect of intra- party strife over divvyine up the spells tempered Republican elation today over the party's landslide victory in Tues days election.
 Party leaders arranging for pol icy sessions starting next week were bedeviled by clearly etched signs that the first sweet taste of politi- cal victory in Is years may be sour ed by fights for top congressional posts.
 But the leaders appeared confi- dent of one thing Whatever fights may develop during the jockeyine for position will be reconciled quickly enough to permit united front when Republicans organize the Senate and House of the 30tf Congress on January 3.
 Between November 14 when the House steering committee meets and January 3, COP leaders expect to pick a slate of officers for par ty caucus ratification and to erect the framework of their legislative policy.

BIG CITY MACHINES

Idmmany, Mayor Kelly, Hague, Pendergdst
 Get If in Neck

WASHINGTON, Nov. Big city Democratic machines which rolled up New Deal majorities for years took a shellacking in Tuesdays COP sweep.
 Kelly, Hague, Pendergast and Tammany all got it in the neck.
 Tennessee's Ed Crump weathered this storm by helping put over a Democratic Senator and Governor, but he saw rough going ahead. He declared in a election forecast the Republicans would elect a President in 1948 and added yes- terday that it would be foolish for President Truman to offer him. self for reelection"
 Mayor Edward J. Kelly of Chi cago, chieftain in the Cook County Democratic wigwam, took such a severe pushing around that Re- publicans have high hopes of end ing his 16-year-old dynasty in fti1e spring naayofalty election.
 An idea of what the COP did to Kelly's organization they un- seated four Democratic Congress men in Cook County, defeated an incumbent Representatives and won the major County office contest;s including the post of Sheriff.
 It was through victories in inn portant county jobs that the Re- publicans hoped to undermine Kel- ly still further These posts give precinct workers greater incentive to go after him in the mayoralty campaign.

ANOTHER THREAT

The threat of new nation wide maritime strike has developed in New York. The National Coun- ell of the CIO Maritime Union has recommended that strike on all coasts be callcd-if necessary to compel West Coast ship oper- ators to come to terms with two CIO unions The recommendation is to be passed along to the Con- mittee for Maritime Unity, com- posed of several CIO maritime un- ions and one independent union.
 Negotiations in the West Coast strike will be resumed Friday at San Francisco. with Federal Medi- ator Nathan P Feinsinger sitting in. The latest move for partial settlement failed when the Water front Employers Association turned down the CIO Longshoremen's of- fer to work all ships except those affected by the strike of CIO Marine Engineers. The employers termed this a piece-meal solution which would tend to delay full settlement.

Answers May Alter Course of U. 5. Also Change
 World Events

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.-Presi- dent Truman, his administration re- buffed at the pools, faced with outward calm today three political decisions which could alter the course of American and world event.
 MT. Truman apparently must de- side:
 l. Whether he shall compromise with the Republican dominated Congress on controversial domes- tic and foreign issues, or challenge it and fight back with Democratic supported votes.
 ?. Whether he shall attempt to lead his own party back toward the more conservative line that appeared to be popularized by Tuesdays sweeping COP victories or steer it even more forcetully toward the opposite side of center
 B Whether he shall attempt to rally dispersed Democratic forces around himself as a candidate for reelection in 1948 or prepare to step aside for some other nominee.

Agreement Reached for Shipping Tn Bond" by
 Trucks, Alaska Highway

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7-The United States and Canada today announced an agreement under which goods may be shipped by truck lin bond" from this country to Alaska over the Alaska highway and connecting roads
 The highway, built during the war for military purposes, will not be in condition for some time to accommodate unlimited traffic, the announcement said.
 Once Canada has improved and increased the highways facilities however, goods can be shipped be- tween the United States and Alaska without payment in Canada of inn port duties and transit or similar charges.
 Under the agreement, Canada designated three frontier ports of entry and exit through which the trucks from the United States and Alaska may pass. They are Kings gate, B. C., opposite Passport Ida; Coutts, Alta, opposite Sweetgrass Mont, and Snag Greek, in the Yu- kon Territory
 As the highway is improved and it's facilities expanded, Canada will consider designation of additional entry and exit ports, the announce ment said
 It emphasized that today's action would not bring greatly expanded highway traffic immediately, but in- stead would lay down the broad general conditions for such use of the road when it can accommodate general civilian traffic.
 The Canadian Minister of Ma tional Revenue will issue suitable reeulations" for the shipment of goods in tond on the highway, the encouragement specified.
 Canada thus far has permitted civilian traffic on a limited basis by individual permit only, although it has given American civilian traf- fic> equal opportunities in this re- spect with Canadian traffic.

Truman Moi
 To Resign
BY ERNEST B. yAccARo

BY IRNEST B. tAICAhO
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 7-Presi- dent Truman is not going to re- sign and has not even seriously considered the possibility. This can be reported today without quaifi- cation.
 The suggestion that MT. Tru- man appoint a Republican Secre- tary of State and resign to per- init the COP to take over the Presidency same from Senator Full bright eD-Ark).
 It was echoed in some newspapers normally Democratic, but Rep Sparkman (D-Ala) asserted that such step was not the thing to do"
 The attitude around the White House today was that the sug- gestion should not be dignitied by comment either from the President or any member of his staff It was known that MT. Truman himself felt that to resign now af- ter the Democrats crushing election defeat, would be to run out on the job.
 The President is known to hold to the view that he should not change the American constitutional system by such move. Some political observers also are strongly of the opinion that the Republicans themselves would not want Democrat to choose Presi- dent for them Such would be the case if MT Truman followed the suggested resignation course.
 There also was a question as to whom the President might submit a resignation even if he had such thought in mind.

 Trade Is PdrdIyzed

SEATTLE, Nov. 7-Alaskans ap- pealed anew for help today as ef- forts to get relief ship out of Seattle's strikebound port appear ed begged down.
 Patients losing weight; children needing milk and eggs L. c. Wright of the Seward Tuberculosis Sanatorium telegraphed officials here.
 No grain for COWS and canned milk exhaused.' Wright said. Air freight limited and prohibitive States must be advised of our pre- dicament and influence induced. Quick action mandatory"
 In a telegram to the Alaska Committee of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce, officials of the Alaska Miners Association declared Alas kan trade is being destroyed by lahor-management disputes on the Seattle waterfront.
 The telegram added: We are not starving but food stocks are alarm ingly low and citizens compelled to pay budget smashing air freight rates for necessities of life.
 The Association warned that If these conditions continue there will be no freight for operators to haul and no employment for maritime workers in Seattle and Alaska. for there will be no Alaska trade.
 Seward grocers in a message say that they have established a system Of voluntary rationing in order to reserve the disappearing stocks of canned milk for families with chill dren and sick persons. In addi- tion. dairymen may soon be forced to slaughter their milk cows for lack of feed.
 A large percentage of the resi- dents of Seward were dependent up- on shipping for their wages and have not been working during the Seattle strike. Therefore, they can not afford relief from cargoes of chartered planes that have been flown to some Alaskan cities.
 Meanwhile. the Grommet Reefer and two Army supply ships are still tied up in Seattle today by a dispute as to whether the union or operators will select the engin- eers. However. the SS Edmond Mallet sailed last night for Alaska with cargo of Army freight af- ter dispute over pilots pay rate
