Solving The Backhaul Problem
Anchorage Daily TimeS)

Anchorage Daily Times)
 The need of backhaul for transportation systems op eratng to- from and within Alaska has long been recog nized of the factors in high costs.
 The Alaska Railroad has the bulk of it's business ing north from Seward But it must return the freight to the southern terminus empty.
 The Alaska Steamship line also has heavy freight loads on northbound voyages and empty bottoms mak ing the return.
 Arpanes too, experience the same problem. They have heavy freight movements from the States to the Territory, and heavy loads from Anchorage to interior points But the planes must return to their southern base empty
 The only exception seems be that coming with the annual migration of seasonal workers to and from Alas ka. Passenger traffic. however, IS usually small Item in the total business of transportation company.
 At first glance these facts the OneWay haul of the transportation companies do not to line up with the trade figures compiled by federal government agen cies.
 Customs reports show that Alaska has almost always exported goods of greater value than she has imported giving her favorable trade balance
 It would that the southbound trips of the var- ous transports would entail heavier loads than would the northbound trips. How that the problem of empty boas trains and planes is most acute when they southbound?
 The answer seems to lie in the fact that the export items chiefly canned salmon and gold. The salmon pack is taken to the States short period much of it steamships chartered and operated for that pur pose by the packers themselves Steamers regular trips Alaska have this backhaul only for few weeks each year Once this load has been moved the bulk of the Alaska export business has been accomplished for the year
 The gold does not make very bulky commodity to during the banner years of gold mining. Un- fortunately for The Alaska Railroad especially the sons work could be packed into two heavy boxes and moved out in one box
 The main industry of Alaska during the war, and probably until the next war-tha of building military
 
 be shipped to the States.
 Under these circumstances it is readily seen that Alaska have favorable trade balance and yet have only small amount of freight moving south compared to that moving north.
 Air carriers especially interested in developing backhaul for their planes They already have heavy freight business from the States to Alaska.
 The carriers have expressed interest in developing fresh frozen Alaska fish and berries for export to the States Alaska has cranberry which the popular lin- gonberry that is now imported to the United States from Sweden. It's strawberries and raspberries rpen after the berry These Alas

officers and enlisted men. Glass B
units will have officers and an en-
listed cadre while class G will be
made up of officers only.
The class A service units will be
affiliated with industrial, CONNER
cial and public utility organiza-
| tions.
The reserve units will be assigned
to armies and come directly under
Army commands for administration
training and supply. Each Army
headquarters will organize a mill
tary district sub-headquarters in
each State to supervise activities of
the civilian components in that
State.
All classes of units will take home

1t was said, however, that the
Russians did not indicate whether
they would comply with the Amer
ican request.
The American delegation was re-
ported to have arrived at no deci-
sion yet as to whether the United
States would consider the five big
powers as interested states. The
delegations position was reported
to be that the delegates should skip
a decision for the present without
giving up any rights, legal or other

Soviet Demands Slash
In j. n. Secrefariat
BY the Associofsd Press

LAKE SUCCESS. N. Y, Nov. O.
Soviet Representative Feodor Gusev
demanded today that the United
Nations reduce the staff of its Sec
retariat by 80 to 40 per cent and
initiate immediate economies to
tighten the financial burden of
member nations.
Mr.. Gusev criticized plans for ex-
panding the activities of the U. N.
Department of Information, declar-
ing that the people were looking for
constructive action and not for a
vast output of propaganda" He
also suggested that the U. N. stop
reimbursing American employees in
the secretariat for American income
taxes, as another means of saving
money.
Mr.. Gusev spoke at a meeting of
the General Assembly's Budget and
Administrative Committee, where
Senator Vandenberg, American rep
resentative, said yesterday that the
United States would refuse to pay
so per cent of the total U. N. costs
as recommended by committee on
contributions.
Secretary General Trygve Lie, re-
plying to Mr.. Gusev, declared that
the budget estimates were the mini
mum necessary to carry out plans
of the Assembly and other U. N. or
ganizations.
He and his staff, he said, did not
make the plans but were merely the
instruments carrying out plans ap-
proved by the member governments.

membered that the II Allied nations
were invited to the French capital
by the big -Four" only to express
their views on the treaties drafted
by the Foreign Ministers Council.
Final decisions on what kind of
peace would be adopted for the Axis
satellites were left in the hands of
the foreign ministers. They are
responsible only to themselves. But
they must have unanimity on all
decisions.
Just as In the United Nations
Security Council, the veto can be
used to prevent action.
On many issues which they must
tackle there Is wide divergence of
opinions among the four power min
listers.
Preparations were in controversy
in each of the five treaties. The
United States attempted to pare
down the amounts, while Russia in
most cases endeavored to maintain
or raise them. Whether the foreign
ministers will make further changes
Is in doubt.
Fought to Cut Reparations.
Undoubtedly the question will be
discussed. But under the present
recommendations, economists be-
lieve that reparations, which total
81 ,350, 900, 900, have been scaled
down to bills that the defeated pow
ers can pay.
The United States fought to re-
duce the Hungarian and Finish rep
arations by $100,000,0 900 each, but
was unsuccessful. Again, it Is a
matter of conjecture whether the
Americans will try to reopen this
issue.
Once all these problems have been
settled and the treaties signed, the
foreign ministers will take up the
German peace treaty. They agreed
to discuss this treaty at this session.

LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y, Nov. e.
The United States delegation to the
United Nations Assembly was re-
ported tonight to be making a stren-
uous effort to head off a Russian
move which might block creation
of the u. N Trusteeship Council
during the present session.
Informed quarters said the Amer
lean delegation went into hurried
consultations with number of del
egations, including the Russians,
after reports spread that the Soviet
government might take the position
that no trusteeship agreements
could be approved without Soviet
ratification.
This involves a legal question as
to whether Russia is a state direct
ly concerned" in the agreements
under the meaning of the U. N.
Charter, which provides that all
states directly concerned" must ap-
prove the draft agreements before
they can be accepted.
The Russians were understood to
contend that all of the five big
powers, as mandatory members of
the Trusteeship Council. come under
the meaning of the charters deflni-
ton.

Ends Season
With Victory

The Tabor City Red Devils closed
heir 1916 campaign in sensational
form last Friday Oh the gridiron at
Wallace with TO 6 victory over
The Bulldogs of the strawberry city.
The local touchdown twins, Fred
SoleS and Ted FippS. clicked for just
one important play in the first
quarter with Soles fading back from
his own 30-yard line to hurl a
beautiful 30-yard aerial to FippS
who slipped behind the Wallace
secondary to receive it and then
outSpeed all would-be tacklers for
the remaining 45 yards. Andy Jerni-
gan plunged for the all-important
extra point and then the Tabor City
boys settled back to the task of
holding the Wallace power in check.
The bruiSing attack of the Bulldogs
finally paved off in the final quart
er with Wallace scoring through the
air. but the slashing defensive
might of Harold Rogers saved the
day for the locals. Rogers broke
through to block the kick for the
extra point.
The entire Tabor City team SEEM
ed to rise to new heights for the
season finale and spanked by the
brilliant quarterbacking of Fred
Jernigan. Jr.. emerged victorious by
the margin of a single point.
The Red Devils played 10 games
this year. winning six, LOSING two
and having two ties.
