The United States begins today
the second year of its military oc-
cupation of the south half Of Korea,
another liberated land from which
American forces find themselves
unable to withdraw because of fail
ure of the allies to agree on terms
for peace.
AS the first year of this occupa-
ton came to a close the United
States reiterated to Korea and to
the world generally that it would
carry out tic commitments to al
low Koreans to set up a democratic
government of their own choosing.
Further, that only Russia's re-
fusal to carry out the international
agreement made in Moscow con-
corning that country's future pre-
vented such a government having
already been established and for
eign troops withdrawn.
But the view of the State depart
ment now is that the year-long
deadlock between American and
Russian forces in Korea prevent
ing the ~unification of the country
and the establishment of a central
government is not to be allowed to
stultify indefinitely American aims
in the U. S. Korean zone.
1t may be expected that the
United States soon will move to
bring democracy and self-govern-
ment to the south half of Korea.
The Russo-American agreement on
Korea says that country shall be
treated as a political and economic
unit and that the 18th parallel di-
viding line between the two occupy
ing forces shall be abolished.
Unless the Russians soon end
their refusal to negotiate to these
ends, Koreans south of the 18th
parallel likely will have a little
world of their own, governed by
their w legislature named by all
political groups in the area. The
Americans will continue to be
around, but Korean aspirations to

DayByDay
RICH. WITHOUT N
BY L T. ELLIS

Gods best friends are the poor.
From the time of the Hebrew
prophet onward the Bible is full
of solicitude for the lowly and
the Impoverished. Jesus had
tender compassion for the un-
moneyed multitude. His words OF
condemnation for oppressors Of
the poor climaxed a long line OF
stern utterances of the prophets
who preceded Him. According to
Scripture, it is grave business to
deal harshly with the lowly.
On the otner hand, the Bible
is well aware that those who are
not rich in goods r likelier to
be rich in grace. The stronghold
of religion today, as always, is
with the common people, to whom
God is the Great Reality, and the
ultimate ReWarder.
We are ever grateful, our
Father, that Thy son, u Saviour,
was a poor man, and found His
best friends among the lowly. May
our own lack of this worlds goods
but open our hearts to Thy grace.
Amen.

TERRITORIAL TREASURER GIVES INNOVATION ON
 REAL PROPERTY LAW

Following information has been given by Territorial Treasurer Os- car G. olson as concerns the Alaska Real Property Law, enacted by the last session of the Territorial Leg islature:
 1. 0. What is the Alaska Real Property Law
 A. An act passed by the Territor- ial Legislature on March 24, 1915 (Chap. 49, Laws of Alaska, 1945). which requires all owners of patent ed lands in the Territory of Alaska to file a declaration of ownership. An Act passed by the Congress of the United States on September 26. 1945 (Public Law 1SS, 79th Cong. 1st session. authorizes the Commis- sioner of the General Land Office and the Registers of the District Land Offices in Alaska to perform the functions necessary to enable compliance with the Territorial Act.
 2. Q. What is the purpose of the Act?
 A. The preparation and mainten- ance of a armament record of land ownership in Alaska.
 8. e. What would be the benefits from such a permanent record?
 4. 4 complete file of land owner ship records would aid in the order ly development and stabilization of the economic life of the. Territory, both now and in the years to come.
 f O. How would that be brought about?
 A. At the present time, many tracts of patented land have been abandoned and the ownership of these abandoned tracts is unknown. This precludes the acquisition of the land by others who may seek to put it to use, and it prevents the trans fer of the land to Territorial owner ship for subsequent disposal by it.
 5. O. How would the Registration Law relieve that situation?
 4. Failure to declare ownership in a tract of land within a certain length of time would incur the for feiture of the land to the Territory. Disregard of the Registration Law also would involve penalty.
 6. 0. When must the declaration of ownership be filed?
 A. The law requires that the de elaration shall be filed on or before June 30, 1946. The law also requires

 Dear Sir:
 For the benefit of the purse seine fishermen of Wrangell, I would like to make this statement in regards to a wire I read from a Mir. William Paul, Jr., to a Mir. ". K. Rudolph dated June 25, from Juneau, Alaska. The CIO-IFAWA have made gains, as you have already read in the AL aska Fishing News. Also the IFAWA Local 30, Metlakatla and Craig Lo- calls negotiated this minimum price and not Wm. Paul Sr. or Jr.
 Wm. Paul Jr., was at Ketchikan a week ago to sign an. agreement for 1Sf pinks, 19e chums 42e echoes 53e reds and l A z for delivery.
 Had it not been for his Executive Board he would have signed the a. greement. He did not consider his rank and file one bit when he of- fered these prices and expected tJ ram it down the members' throats.
 His Executive Board told him to return to Juneau and await deyel- opments by the CIO fishermen. Paul Jr., then stated that the ley Straits fishermen would fish for 18e and 19e regardless of what the South ern end did.
 If you doubt my words as to the above statements, you may contact Paul, Jr.'s Executive Board and get facts from them.
 In regards to a letter I saw in the Fishing News the other day my answer is this: Ignorance is excus- able where properly applied, but in either of the Paul's cases it does not because both of them are con- sidered intelligent men. Of course, I admit the fact that they are, but they are too smart for their own good.
 I admit also, that I am ignorant in more ways than one, but I'm at least honest about it.
 I have not the time nor money U sit idly by and dream up fancy phrases to attack legitimate organ iZations as Messers.s Paul Sr., aud Jr., are doing but if they enjoy themselves, can't help it.
 I'm still a fisherman first and an organizer second, so Messers. Paul, I do not admit defeat but do know that the public should be tired of this kind of reading so from now on I'll just ignore the both of you and your son's literature,

crow hunting this spring. A bounty
of 25c per crow is paid by the sports

Crow hunting provides good sport
and at this time Of year crows are
not so wary. Shells are plentiful, so
do a good turn for hunting with a

ed. Crows destroy many thousands
of pheasant eggs each spring in our
area and are considered one of the
main reasons for the decline of this
game bird the past few years.

Buckeye Quarry Restocked With
New Variety of Game Fish

New variety OF Game Fish
Several hundred white bass all of
large size were released in the Buck
eye Quarry late Monday as the
Sportsmen's Club continued their
spring restocking program. The
white bass arrived as part of ship
ment of mixed fish purchased by the
club.
The white bass averaged II to IA
inches in size, and resemble white
crappies in coloration and physical
characteristics. They are considered
the most prolific of Ohio fishes and
at maturity these fish will reach 15
to Is inches in length and have an
average life-span of 3 years.
In Lake Erie these particular fish
refuse to be caught on hook and line
IN any great quantities except at
certain seasons. One occasion is at
spawning time when they deposit
their eggs along shores of lakes and
streams, preferably where ragged
rock shelves form a retaining wall
backing up water. Their spawning
lasts from to 3 weeks and during
its peak anglers catch them by troll
ing small fly rod spinners or by fish
ing with small live minnows.
