SAYS START ON
DAM DELAYED

John J. Harris this week sent
the Tribune-Herald a letter from
H. w. Bashore, commissioner OF
the Bureau of Reclamation, to
James E. Murray explaining the
stand of the Bureau on the prior
itv for construction given the
Boysen Dam.
Mr.. Harris said he would be in
Washington early in January to
try to get more rapid action on
the Yellowtail project.
Commissioner Bashore's letter
reads as follows:
Dear Senator Murray: In my
letter of Nov. /, l promised a
further reply to your letter of
Oct. "a regarding the order of
construction of Yellowtail and
Boysen dams. l have received the
comments of the regional director
on this matter and can now re-
spond to the statements made by
John Wattawa and John j. Har-
ris in their letters which you re-
ferred to us.
at seems that the criticism
voiced in the letters are directed
chiefly at the timing of construct
ion for the Boysen and Yellow
tail dams. Both Of the dams have
been authorized IS a part of the
initial stage of the Missouri
River development plan, and both
will be constructed just as fast
as congress makes appropriations
available for that purpose. The
huge program involved, even in

Navy Enlistment
Offers Good Pdy

Comparison shows that the
average income of enlisted per-
sonnet in the navy is the
greatest of any branch Of the
service. says H. G.. Thompson,
recruiting officer of the navy
recruiting station for this area.
Thompson said proof can be
found in a study of organiza-
ton charts. More than half
the enlisted men in the navy
are petty officers, he pointed
out, while a large percentage
aboard ship are seamen first
class or firemen first class. The
latter two pay grades receive
$66 a month, which compares
with the pay of a corporal.
Navy pay begins at $50 a
month, the recruiting officer
said, with a top of $138 a
month plus many extras in
Guiding five per cent addition
al for every three years of
service.
He also stated that men en-
listing in the navy now may
still qualify for benefits guar
anteed war vetreans under the
G.. I. Bill of Rights. Some of
the outstanding features Of
this law, he emphasized, are
assurance of college education,
home and bushes loans, must
ering-out pay, unemployment
insurance and adequate hos
pitalization. Mastering out pay
will be received by men who
qualify, even though they con-
tinue to make the navy a car
eer, he pointed out.

Donald Clark, 7th Grade stu dent, son of Mir. and Mrs Basil Clark, reported early this week that he saw bear on the Island lake road. According to the re- port Donald was alone, with his dog, and hearing the bear from 8 distance, climbed tree.

The Lakina is que aC houlaK this weekend, and ss per an a. greement reached Tuesday the freight which the boat still has aboard for Kod ak will be unload ed. with local "erchants guaran- tseing any overtime necessary for the longshoremen.
 The boat left Erskine's dock last Friday WI tia most of the Ko- diak freight still aboard, when it appeared it would have to wait until Monday to continue the unloading. The w. J. Erskine Co, dock operations, have set the dock opening hOUrs from 8 to 4 daily, with cIoslngs on Saturday and Sunday, to get away from excessive over 6ime payments which the company claims are mainly respon sible for losses in the docks ope ra 6ion.
 At a mass mee ting called Tues day morning g. t Blinn's hall, bout 100 persons attended and the meeting was devoted to sec ing that means was arrived at to secure the un loading of the southbound Lakina. The War Shipping Admi m stration had re- fused to allow the ship company to assume over cime payments for dock longshore~en employees, so ss solution fOr the one boat it vas agreed the merchants would pay the overtIne difference If any.
 A committee of Lee Bettinger, mayor, Walter Sipprell, Alaska Steamship agen t. and Tom Sor- ensOn, for the lon gshoremen, met with dock officials after the meet ing where the Dian was agreed upon.

MOSCOW APPLAUDS
STALIN'S REMARKS
Survey Shows That Neither
Nations Nor Their
Armies Want War

i MOSCOW, March 23-(P)-Mos-
!, COW citizens today applauded Gen
eralissimo Stalin's expression OF
confidence ir the United Nations
| Organization and his assurance
that neither nations nor their arm
les wanted war.
Here are some typical statements
from ordinary citizens queried as
to their reaction to the answers
Stain gave the Associated Press
yesterday in an exchange of letters:
A policeman: That's the kind of
answer everyone had been hoping
someone would make. People all
over the world have been afraid of
another war. They don't want one
and I believe they've now got a rea-
son to feel better"
A cook: The Russians only want
peace. They are not interested in
war. War brings only disaster and
unhappiness to Russia, as well as
the rest of the world
A cashier: "Why should the peo-
pie Of the world go out and fight.
The average workers all over the
world don't want any war and 1 be-
lieve Comrade Stain has spoken
for them when he says the nations
and their armies don't want war;"
A Red Army Captain: I'm
soldier, but God knows 1 don't want
war any more than an American or
Chinese soldier wants it. Comrade
Stain has spoken with his great
wisdom once more.'
A housewife: 81 always said the
Russian people don't want any
more wars and all they want is to
be left alone. They certainly are
not interested in gaining any land
from anybody and it sounds ridi-
culous to Russian to be accused
of being aggressive.
A typist: "Of course Russia be-
lieve in the United Nations, and I'm
glad Comrade Stain gave an ans
wer for UNO. We've always bel
ieved in collective security and
always will. Russia wants peace"
A musician: "Comrade Stain is
right. The real test of the United
Nations is going to be the principle
of equality of nations. No one nation
can try to dominate the rest and
no group of nations may do So"

US. Wants Reich Plant
 PIons to Transfer
 Unit to America

Washington, Oct. 9-(UP)-Act- ing Secretary of State Dean Ache son said today that this country has filed it's first application for the dismantling and transfer to this country of complete German factory unit
 The plant is the optical works of Hensoldt & Sons at Herborn in the American Zone of Germany. If transferred, it would constitute a part of this country's reparation bill against Germany.
 An application for transfer of the plant has been filed with the Inter Allied Preparations Agency at Brus- sels. The plant was used by the Nazis to manufacture binoculars, gunsights and other war equipment.
 At the same time 8 department aide said other nations could be ex- pected to ask for the Herborn plant. The reparations agency must decide who gets it. If no agreement is forthcoming the problem will be subject to arbitra- tion.
 Acheson said the United States will receive 11.8 percent of ships and capital equipment transferred to the separations agency for disposal. In addition the U. s. will obtain 28 percent of other items.
