5-Cent Air Mail
 Doesn't Excite
 Dog Team POstman

Fred Milligan, 50-year-old mail supervisor for Pan American World AirWays in Seattle, has seen mail deliveries from Seattle to Alaska speeded from A days to 16 hours in little more than 30 years, so the advent of scent air mail this week doesn't excite the veteran sourdough at all.
 "I ran dog team with 1000 pounds of mail along the Yukon River 35 years ago when it took A days for letter to reach Nome from Seattle" Milligan recalled. "The mail would go to Valdez by steamer, to Fairbanks and Panama by horse stage and to St. Michael, Nnear Nome, by dog team"
 Milligan was run out" of the mail-carrYing business by Pacific International AirwaYs. the prede- cessor of Pan American in the Far North. when the air line halved his Sl.o22 fee for carrying mail from Panama 10 Flat. a distance of 380 miles. in 1891.
 "Then the air line hired me to fly along the new route to show the pilots where to land and where to drop the mail" Milligan laughed. Aviation ran me out of one job and got me a new one"
 Milligan worked for Pan Amer ican in Fairbanks for ten years before coming to Seattle just be- fore the Second World War.
 And now air mail is down to a nickel" the sourdough said. That means that first-class mail to Alaska virtually will be elim- mated"
 Milligan rpedicted the new air mail rate will double the amount of mail for the Territory.
 "We made six miles an hour by dog team in the old days on the run from Panama to St. Michael" Milligan said. "It took us three weeks to travel from Fairbanks to Nome Now it takes three hours.
 "No more dog teams for me. They're too slow"

Stock Prices Recover

Dealings Slower
By Victor Eubonk
Assoeioted Press Finoneiol Writer


NEW YORK, Feb. 21.-The sick
est stock market in almost six years
today sat up and imbibed rallying
nourishment to the extent of to
around 5 points at the best al
though the convalescence was more
or less sluggish.
Dealings, fast at the start, soon
tapered and the ticker tape fire.
Equently halted. While advances
were widely distributed near the
close, top marks were trimmed in
many cases. Transfers were in the
vicinity of 100000 shares against
2,l50,000 Wednesday.
Wall Street regarded the come
back as largely technical, buyers
assuming that the drop of bout IS
per cent in the averages since the
japanese surrender last August hao
put the list in a mucn healthier
condition. Revived hopes of Gen.
eral Motors strike settlement aided
sentiment, as did the implications
of lifted ceiling rates for textiles
Steels, motors, rails, utilities
amusements, liquors, aircrafts and
a wide assortment of industrials lee
the forward move.

Gen. Porter Crificizes
Attacks on Truman
And Military Leaders
BY the Assoeioied Press

Maj Gen. Ray E. Porter, in sharp
departure from military custom, has
directed his personal criticism at re-
cent attacks on President Truman
and men who recently led our
armed forces to victory"
Gen. Porter is chief of the Special
Planning Division of the War De-
partment general staff and served as
a division commander in North At
rica and Western Europe.
Normally general officers on active
duty make it point to keep hands
off controversial political topics, but
Gen. Porter was outspoked in con-
demning what he described as "an
alarmingly effective effort through
out our Nation to cultivate i'll viii
against every one and to destroy our
confidence in each other"
He mentioned no names, but his
remarks at conference of women's
organizations at the Pentagon yes
terday recalled the recent clas be-
tween Harold L. Ickes and Mr.. Tru-
man, the demand for the custer of
Gen. Omar Bradley as veterans ad-
ministrator and the criticism of the
officers responsible for the bloody
Rapido River attack in Italy.
1T is my impression said Gen.
Porter, that those individuals who
would sacrifice the interests of our
people to their own temporary and
most trivial advantages have joined
in such diabolical scheme with
those groups who would destroy our
constitutional government because
they hate it.
When men of such prominence
as to compel attention boast OF
their readiness to denounce the in
tegnity of the President of the
United States: when the character
and ability of the men who SO re-
Gently led our armed forces are as
sailed without discrimination
1 become genuinely alarmed"
Gen. Porter incorporated these re-
marks in an address to representa-
tives of SO leading women's organ
izations that constitute an advisory
council to the women's interests sec
ton of the War Departments Bu-
reau of Public Relations.
Gen. Porter devoted the bulk of
his speech to an appeal for univer-
sal military training.
Secretary of War Patterson ex-
planned the problems of Army de-
mobilization and Gen. Bradley told
how women could unite to help re-
habilitate the returned soldiers in
hospitals and communities.
! Maj. Gen. Willard S. Paul, assist
ant chief of staff, outlined a War
Department policy that will seek
early legislation establishing the
Army Nurse Corps, the proposed
Women's Medical Specialist Corps
and the Women's Army Corps in
tthe postwar military establishment
A bill is now being drawn, he said
to make the Army Nurse Corps a
permanent corps in the Regular
| Army and to give reserve status to
/ such nurses as served honorably
during World War II, upon their
request. This legislation also would
| include Women's Medical Special
ist Corps, which would consist OF
the women in the present Dieticians
and Physical Therapists' Corps.
Reserve status also would be
sought for discharged WACS, Gen
Paul said. in addition to the inclu-
sion Of the wartime corps in the
| permanent ARMY.
