THEY SAID LAST
President Truman, in his state
ment on United States poll
cy toward China:

In line with it's often erpres-
sed views regarding self-determi-
nation. the United States govern
ment considers that the detailed
steps necessary to the achieve
ment of political unity in China
must be worked out by the Chi
nese themselves and that inter-
vention by any foreign govern
ment in these matters would be
inappropriate. The United States
feels. however. that China has
clear responsibility to the other
United Nations to eliminate ar
med conflict within its territory
as constituting a threat to world
stability and peace-a RESPONSE
bility is shared by the National
Government and all Chinese poll
tical and military groups
John Foster Dulles, advisor to
U. S. delegation at the San
Francisco Conference:
The first way toward inter-
, national unity is to get peoples
working together for vital goals.
That is what the Assembly (oi
the United Nations sOrganization)
is supposed to do. 1t is to organ
ize the nations to fight against
the social. economic, and moral
enemies of mankind. If the AS
senbly does that, and if the ma
tions, in response to it's call,
| earnestly work together. then
! that will develop a worldwide
! sense OF spiritual unity. We have
recently had an illustration OF
how that can work. At the Lon
don meeting OF the Council OF
Foreign Ministers there was dis
agreement on almost every
ma or matter. 1t seemed that
distrust grew day by day. But at
the same time, almost across the
street, the representatives of the
same nations were working to-
gether to prepare for the launch
ling of the United Nations Organ
!ization. There the atmosphere
was very different. The reason
was that there the representa-
!tives were working together in a
! great task of creation. The result
was feeling of fellowship and of
friendliness."

Stop This Foolishness
Seattle Post InteIligencep

4 tSeattle POSt 1ntelLgenceT) l Washington D. o. not Seattle, is the salmon capital" of the world today. It is the salmon capital" because there you will find gathered the harassed ond worried representa- tives of score packing firms that have made the Alaska canned salmon industry the highly pro- ductye and efficient regional asset it is
 These representatives are in the nations capital instead of tending to their business at home because they want be they will still have business to tend to at home
 They are there because Harold L. Ickes Secretary of the Interior until his spectacular resignation few days ago. served notice on them that in his opinion they had grown big for their pants and he intended reducing them to size
 As an instrument to reverse the natural processes of industrial growth the exSecary chose to propose regulation limiting to 20 the number of fish traps any single packer could operate in Alaska waters.
 He further proposed that by 1850 the number of such traps be reduced to 10.
 What this means you easily can see when you know that several of the bigger packers in Alaska operate upward of 50 traps and many more operate well over the limit of 10 Ickes wants ultimately to impose
 The ex-secretary was gracious enough to inform the industry it would be given hearing before the Interior Department applied the az
 The hearing commenced yesterday.
 The fact that Ickes stepped out as department head before it commenced is of little consequence
 The Ickes point of view-that anything big in industry IS lnlmcaI 10 puDnC peI SS-lOIB has been shared by clique of extremists in his de- partment. They may be depended upon to press that point of view unless confronted at the top with a drastic change in the departments attitude
 There is no issue of monopoly involved, Ickes has presented no evidence that bigness in the industry has operated in restraint trade against the public interest
 The fact is that there is no monopoly in Alaska salmon packing operations.
 There are at least five six packers operating more than 20 traps and at all familiar with the industry will question the competition that has served to prevent any single operator or group of operators from dominating the Alaska salmon catch or its distribution
 Virtually all of the larger operators, and others not so large have grown throughout the by legal acquisition of trap sites. Their crime seems to be that they have grown.
 Should the Ickes philosophy-and it is philosophy prevail these packers would be severely damaged. But what is even important, the efficient ex- ploitation of a great natural asset in the public interest indubitably would suffer a consequence.
 There is question at all that the salmon industry should be regulated in the interest of con- servation
 But it is quite another matter to attempt to destroy large operators simply because they are large operators.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1946-02-25

With Honest" Harold Ickes out of the picture the chances that the Interior Departments move to limit the number of fish traps any company can operate will succeed are not good they were month ago Nevertheless, the hearing now being conducted in Washington still is threat to Alaskas largest industry
 Ind even If the Department decides to drop the matter in Washington, it will be picked up here next week when the special session of the Territorial Leg slature begins.
 If one large company had monopoly on the fish traps in Alaska the present hearing would make some sense But the only crime" the trap seem to have committed is that they have expanded until they have become large operatorsmuch to the benefit Of Alaska
 As a spokesman for the industry pointed out last week. Governor of Alaska Ernest Henry Gruening, and others in the Interior Department responsible for creating the false impression that there is monopoly on fish traps in Alaska.
 During the last session of the Legislature, the Governor tried to sell this to the Territorys law makers by sponsoring bill which would have limited the number of traps owned by any company by levying excessive taxes The bill killed mainly because enough legislators figured that this was the same thing deprving of their righfu prop erty without due process of law.

 Ninety-six Senators, however, are not all supposed to have blind spots. At least majority are sup posed to have a statesmanlike ap- proach to appointments to high of flee. That is what the system of Senate confirmation is for.
 However, when the current vice president of the company which paid Boss Pendergast his heaviest bribe came up for appointment to one of the most powerful economic jobs in Government, all but one Democrat-Fuilbright of Arkansas Dlindly followed the leader.
 AS a directo.- of the REC, George Allen is now in a position where he can promote Government loans to insurance companies or to other firms which owe money to insur- ance companies. It certainly pays to be a charming host at dinner.
 Note - Insurance, ~of course, is only one of Georges corporate con- nections, though it should be enough. Others will be discussed in future columns.

PENGERGAST BRIBE

The company which had most at stake in this nine-million-dollar kitty was the Home Insurance Co.,, of which George Allen is now vice president. Its share was S737 ,389.3l. Naturally it was anxious to get this little nest egg returned to the com pany's treasury rather than go back to the policy holders.
 So a deal was finally worked out between the companies whereby Boss Pendergast was to receive bribe of s750,O00. In return, the court suit was to be compromised, the ire insurance companies getting 80 per cent of the nine million, the policy holders getting only 20 per cent.
 First fnstallment of the Fender gast bribe was Slo0,0O0, and it was pcnied up by l4 different com panies. But, since Home Insurance had the largest amount at stake, 1t sent more than any other com pany-S15,000. Later, the fire insur- ance companleS kicked in a total of $330,000 to Pendergast, but be- fore they could pay the entire s750000, the Government probe was started and he ever get the bal snce.
 1t was ir Ieac. Gu.ng this Gov ernment rrcbe and before Psnder- gast was finally convicted in 1889, that Home Insurance, in desper- ate need of friends, made George Allen vice president. Allen was formr WPA Administrator with DO great business talents But he nad one greav asSet-close connec- tions in Washington.

GEORGE ALLEN SITS PRETTY

Following this, the fire insurance companies, including Home Insur- ance, were indicted by the Justice Department for violating the Anti Trust Act. However, the insurance lobby, including George Allen, Ldshed legislation through the House of Repl esentatives exempt ing insurance companies from the Anti Trust Act. Thanks to highly skillful lobbying, the Justice De- partment finally compromised the case.
 meanwhile, Home Insurance and other companies operating in Mis- scuri did not 50 10 jail. Tom Pen dergast served his time, but not the insurance executives who she'll ed out S330,00O and were willing to Jay up to s750,000.
