IRAN CASE
 IS EASING
 I5 BELIEF
Two Nations Involved May Clear Up Trouble Now
 Before UNSC Meet

NEW YORK, March 30.-The pos sibility arose today that replies by Prime Minister Stain and Premier Amhed Qavam to Security Council inquiries about the situation in Iran might obviate further United Ma tions action in the Russian -Iranian dispute.
 The council yesterday adopted the direct method of asking Stalin and Qavam for reports on the status of negotiations between their countries and for information whether Russia is exacting concessions for pulling Red Army troops out of oil-rich Iran. During the discussions, Secre- tary of State James F. Byrnes sug- gested that the answers = if and when they come might show that the two countries needed no further assistance in settling their dispute.
 Messages to Stalin and Qavam- fixing II am, EST, Wednesday, April 3, as the deadline for receipt of the replies in New York--were sent by the council secretariat last night to Ambassadors Andrei Grom- yko of the Soviet Union and Illus sein Ala of Iran, for relay to their home governments.

.513 VACCINATIONS
 AGAINST SMALLPOX
 GIVEN YESTERDAY

The immunization against small pox clinic held yesterday in the Juneau Public Health Center ir the Territorial Building kept doc tors and the Public Health Nurse, Miss Margaret Welsh. assisted by Nus Aides, busy from 9:30 o'clock in the morning until 5 o'clock and during this time 5l3 persons were yaccinated.
 The response of so many to the request made by public health off cials that the public avail them selves of the opportunity to pro- tect themselves against smallpox was very gratifying, officials said Other immunization clinics are be- ing planned and the time and place will be announced later.
 According to one of the workers at yesterdays clinic. the waiting line was even longer than the my lon" line at B. M. Behrends store. All doctors in the city are coop erating in giving the vaccinations, and future clinics will be arranged to give everyone the chance to get this protection.

Vaccine Supplies Running Low in Northwest --New
 Cases Are Reported
(By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS,

Smallpox supplies of vaccine ran low in Pacific Northwest cities to- day as Seattle fought to curb an outbreak of smallpox that has taken five lives and her neighbor cities sought to bar their doors to the disease by large scale vaccination programs.
 Alarmed, also, is California, with San Francisco reporting eight eases.
 The Navy transport LaSalle ar rived in the Bay City with another case aboard and the quartaine sta- ton said none of the l,426 navy men and marines aboard would be permitted ashore until April 1 at the earliest
 No deaths have been reported in California.
 There were 22 known cases in Seattle and the hospital where most of the cases are held is un- der quarantine One small hotel has Teen quarantined and police guard placed at the door when a case was discovered there
 Tn Portland, vaccine supplies are running low Health authorities said that in some cases, one vial of vaccine has been used on two persons.
 At Tacoma, police were called out to keep in line crowds that gathered at the City-County Health Department Center for ifnmuniza- : tion. The supply of vaccine has been exhausted at Spokane by a sudden demand for protection.
 At Aberdeen, school officials can celled the high school team's entry in the state swimming meet today in Seattle.

House Group May(onduei
 Own Inquiry
Transportation Facilities 10 Be lnvesiigdied-Su -Sub-
 sibY Be Proposed

WASHINGTON. March 30.-The House Merchant Marine and Fish cries Committee will be asked to make thorough study of steamship rates from .he United States to Alaska and the possibility of pro- yiding more transportation facilities to the Territory.
 Rep. Jackson (D.-Wash) member of the committee, said he would ask for the investigation.
 Jackson said steamship lines as- sert they need an increase in rates. The War Shipping Administration. which now operates liners to Alaska, held hearings in Seattle but ad- journed them indefinitely at request of the Office of Price Administra- tion which wanted time to gather material to oppose the increase.
 Jackson said the VISA had oper- ated the lines at loss of several million dollars a year.
 He said he would ask the House committee to determine whether an increase in rates would be justified. He said he would suggest the com mittee consider whether payment of a subsidy to the steamship lines is advisable.

 BIG MONEY BOUT

NEW YORK, March 30. The Brooklyn knockout artist, Rocka- bye Rocky Graziano, threw another bombshell kayo punch into the ranks of welterweight champions last night in Madison Square Gar den
 Graziano, who twice knocked out the former welter king. Red Coch- rane, added the new l47-pound title-holder. Marty Servo. to his list last night. Graziano cut down Servo in the second round of their scheduled ten-rounder at the Gar den. He dropped Marty three times before referee Arthur Donovan stopped the bout after one minute and fifty-two seconds.
 Outweighed and without req: test under his belt since his recent discharge from the Coast Guard Servo, i'll the face of Graziano's whitening attack, never had chance to find himself.
 The non-title brawl drew pack ed house of more than l9,000 fans who contributed a gross gate of $173,l63 dollars. It stacked up as the greatest betting and biggest money fight between two little men in Garden history,

Bounty Measure Sets Brakes on Stream
 lined" Session

After devoting most of the after noon session to writing letters, v the Alaska Senate held their first evening meeting last night. In an ticipation of speedy disposal at the evening session, the Rules Con- mittee lined up IA "non-controver- sial" measures to come before the body
 But, once again was proved the truth of the maximum. "The best laid plans of mice and men, etc. .' Out of the IA bills set out for the "streamlined" proceedings, only three received consideration before the Senators finally adjourned at g:30 o'clock in ordr to accept the invitation of the local Pioneers Igloo.
 All three of those measures were passed-but, not at all without con- troversy. HB. Is, alone called up most of the Senate's members for a turn at speechmaking. It is an- other of those bills to increase the bounty on wolves and coyotes, sim liar to a measure meted indefinite postponement by the Solons at the last regular session.
 The wolf bill escaped the upper chambers trap still alive last night, but not with whole hide.
 House Bill
 As the bill came over from the House, it proposed increasing pre- sent bounties, $20 on wolves and $I750 on coyotes, to $40 and $25 respectively. Senator N. R. Walker immediately rose with an amend ment cutting the wolf payoff to $30. Senator Grenold Collins former Game Commission agent who moved for indefinite postpone ment of the bounty bill last year did an about face and offered an amendment to Walkers motion which would have set the bounty at. $50.
 Walker bounced back with the statement that regular and defi- ciency appropriations for wolf bounties in the last normal bienium

The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON

e WASHINGTON - The American people are now getting their first closeup of Oriental diplomacy of the cloak -and dagger variety.
 Neither side in the Iranian dis pute is averse to using these tac- tics, but the ablest exponent is in scrutable Soviet Ambassador Grom- yko, Though young in the game and sometimes considered a mere messenger for Moscow, Gromyko knows what he's doing every min ute. Nothing slips by him.
 While the audience, mostly An- erican, watches the Soviet diplo- matic stalling at the UNO meeting, a much clearer picture is revealed behind the scenes. Confidential cables pouring into the State De- partinent and the British Foreign Office from Anglo-American re- presentatives in Iran plead for ut most speed The cables from Mos COW to Gromyko order him to stall, delay, ands then stall some more. That's why the Soviet Ambassa- dor acts as if he has nothing to do but sit and talk. That's why Polish Ambassador Oscar Lange, Soviet supporter, is always getting hungry. He is always the first to ask for a recess for lunch or dinner. Every recess means more time killed. That's how Gromyko keeps avoid ing vote to the last possible mo- ment.
 Meanwhile, however, high drama is being enacted in Teheran. There, both Britain and America are re- presented by anti-Soviet diplomats. They have pinned their hopes on the equally anti-Soviet Shah of Iran
 On the other side is the Russian Ambassador, who has his orders to stage a revolt at the earliest pos sible moment, busting the Shah and making Iranian Premier Ghav- am top man.
 Ghavam is virtually Soviet puppet. During the last two years, the Russians have permitted him to get away with all sorts of econ
