C( DEMANDS RESUMPTION
 s SERVICE
Resolution Calls for lm- mediate private Action
 or Public Operation

The Executive Board of the Ju- neau Chamber of Commerce. meet ing in a special session at 10 o'clock this morning, passed resolution recommending adequate steamship service to Alaska must forthwith be resumed by either private action or public operation"
 It is pointed out that prolongation of the maritime strike on top Of numerous ether shipping stoppages in the Alaska trade during the past year is becoming "intolerable and ruinous to the Territory" since at least 95 per cent of goods consumed here are procured from the States, and lack of rail or highway trans portation, together with limited air service which tends to make air cargo rates prohibitive, leaves AL aska greatly dependent on water transportation.
 Severance of such lifelines not only "discommodes the people of Alaska but interrupts the great bulk of all interstate cargo carriage to the Territory and brings Alaska s whole economy to a grinding and painful stop so that nctwithstand- ing a few emergency shipments to smaller towns and limited stockpiles of essential supplies in some of the bigger towns, consumers are scared by shortages and air freight prices anG arc retpensilihg to the point that businesses are closing down iii rapidly increasing numbers, with resultant unemployment and gen. erar hardship"
 As a public service, the water borne trade is vested with a public interest, and, as public service, en- trusted with essential operations for the necessity of a neutral public, should be compelled to maintain that service or forfeit the right to an appropriate public authority, Y the co resolution continues. Concluding, the resolution states that neither fragrant disregard of the publics rights from any source, nor governmental weakness in the premises can be condoned and full and adequate steamship service to Alaska must forthwith be resumed by either private action or public operation. n.-not only in justice to the peoplc of Alaska but out of re- spect to the national interest in all area vitally necessary to the na- tional defense"
 Copies of the resolution are being sent to all Chambers of Commerce in Alaska, as well as Seattle, Ta- coma, Spokane, Portland, San Fran cisco and Los Angeles; and to the President Of the United States; the Governor of Alaska, the Delegate to C.ngress from Alaska. the Secretary of the Interior; the Secretaries of Labor. War, and Navy; the U. g. Maritime Commission aid to the respective Steamship managements and unions involved in the Alaska trade.

NEW MOVE MADE

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 1 - The Pacific Coast Waterfront Employ CTS Association has demandet withdrawal of the CIO Longshore- mems $6,00o,0o0 lawsuit as a con- dition to negotiations to end the maritime strike. A spokesman has described the action as nuisance suit. It charges the shipowners with failing to meet a deadline for payment of retroactive wage in creases ordered last June. The union has made the operators a new proposal, and maintains that it's acceptance will remove the last obstacle to settlement of the month old strike.

The W ashing ion Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON-I fact about the firing of ace Justice Depart ment prosecutor John Rogge was that he was busted on direct or ders from President Truman.
 Indirectly also the orders came from Senator Burton Wheeler of Montana with reported off-stage promptings from John L. Lewis.
 Rogge had discussed his Swarth- more speech in advance with Attor- ney General Tom Clark, and the latter knew all about the dyna- mite that was going to be eXplod- ed. He knew that various hlgn- placed Americans whom the Nazls tried to use in 1940, including John l.. Lewis and Senator Wheeler, would have their feet held to the fire. Furthermore, Attorney Gen eral Clark discussed the impending speech with at least one other member of the Cabinet.
 Two days passed after Rogge's Oct. p speech was delivered and nothing happened. There was no move inside the Justice Depart ment to admonish hpn.
 Then, on the second day, Oct.

they began leaving their jobs
until the plant was completely
empty. Involved in the strike
are $50 production workers and
so office employees.
Principal sources of irritation
to Swartzbaugh workers was the
removal of the check-off clause
and alteration of the seniority
clause in which the company
management allocated the exclu-
sive right to remove employees
from the seniority list after
agreeing, on April 6, that such
removal would be by joint con-
sideration of the management
and union committee.
Authorization of the strike
was made by the International
UAW-CIO Board meeting in
Chicago on Tuesday night after
Regional Director Gosser had
been informed of the workers
action.
The union is maintaining a
strong picket line at the COM
pany's Bancroft st. plant.

MESA Deserts
Independents

WASHINGTON, April Is -
(LPA) = Disruption of the Con-
federated Unions of America at
the moment when the independ-
.ent group was planning a ma
tionwide drive which it fondly
hoped would make it major
rival of the AFL and CIO was
disclosed here last week.
In rapid succession the CUA's
national secretary was fired, its
national president resigned, it's
chief supporting union pulled
out, and its officers were rifled
of records and office machinery.
Three weeks previously Mat
thew Smith, secretary of the Me-
chanics Educational Society of
America, was unanimously elect
ed Qua president at a conven-
tion in Cincinnati. A subse-
quent executive board battle
over the dismissal of Karl PAUL.,
Qua secretary, produced a flare
up when Smiths nominee was
rejected. The MESA h e d
promptly resigned and pulled
his union out after him.
In Detroit, Smith told the
Wage Garner, weekly publica-
ton of the Assn, of Catholic
Trade Unionists 1--WE tried to do
a job. We thought that if the
independent unions of the coun-
try were united, they would be a
force for good and would help
and end company unions. But
we found that one of the two
things happened. Either they
Joined the AFL or CIO--or they
slipped back to where they came
from. 1t was too big a job for

Full Employment

TUSKEGEE, Ala. April Is -
GPA) - Continuous full en-
ployment opportunities at fair
minimum wage is the one GER
tain way of eliminating racial
discrimination, Commerce Secre-
tary Henry Wallace declared
last week in an address to the
student body and faculty of
Tuskegee Institute.
THE average American Ia
borer, farmer, school teacher,
and professional man lives in
fear" said Wallace. He has
seen depressions before. He ex-
poets depressions again. When
he sees a Negro operating a
street car, he thinks, Tomorrow,
business will be bad. This Ne
gro is taking white mans job.
There must be no Negroes OPP
err ting street cars Some car
penters, bricklayers and farmers
feel the same way. So do all
white Americans who feel inse-
cure.
"It is your duty and the duty
of all of us, to work diligently
for education, and more diligent-
ly for full production, full en-
ployment, full use of all our re-
sources, and a more abundant
life in America. When full en-
ployment is achieved, when the
fear of insecurity is gone, all of
the races which make up this
great country can dwell together
in peace"
