RALPH RIVERS lS
 ORATOR AT ELkS'
 SERVICES SUNDAY

Memorial services were held by Juneau Lodge cf the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks yes .erday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock ill he organizations ledge rooms. Speaker Of the day was Ralph J Rivers, who set tone of unity in she memory of departed brothers 1f the Elks while continuing along he road toward peace and brother ly love
 Let's forget all conflict, both outward and inward" stated Mir Rivers. and value brotherhood in general as well as cherish those whom We won't see on this earth again. In that manner we should ind peace of heart and clarity of rind, and in that manner attain stature qualifying us for this ob- sciyance."
 Romatking that memorial services are apt to be most sombre in tone MT. Rivers went on to say. Our departed brothers would not have t SO. They lived with attitudes of good fellowship and varying degrees of joy they would want remem- trance to call up in us glow of eladness that We lived and that it was our good fortune to have known them"
 Brotherly Lcvc
 Their lives syinbolize the falter- ing steps Of all mankind toward our ultimate goal, namely, full at tainment of 'brotherly love in the broad sense used by the Christ who first enunciated that doctrine as the fundamental cure for this worlds greatest ills MT. Rivers continued.
 Tn the long perspective of his- tory, some advance toward the ba- ic solution of mans troubles has cen made The seed soWn by Christ and nutured by such of his followers as had the milk of hu- man Kindness in their veins, has at least taken root It is the ultl- mate in the finer development of mankind, whether achieved by Christians, Mohammedans, Confu- clans, agnostics, atheists, non-he- lieving scientists or philosophers
 Regardless of how little thought come of US have given to this sub ject, We know that the doctrine ot owe works, 10th as means of giving some help to our felloWmen and as the only humanly possible recourse fer self -fulfillment and inner accord Only when the people of the world attain the stature to practice this lesson which has been presented to us will we be aEle to lay full claim to a civilized world.
 Previous to NTr Rivers oration, Mi-s Frances Paul sang two solos, Crossing the Bar" by Dudley Buck, and I'm a Pilgrim" by Her tc-t Johnson. Fred Tubb sang Largo" from Anton Dvoraks New World Symphony after the talk, and the audience joined in singing Aud Lang Syne" at the close, af- t,r which Elks' Chaplain Dewey Baker dismissed the service.

BUSINESS AFFAIRS

Competent help will be increas- ingly difficult to get through the next several months. Many will remain unemployed, but the ma- jority of those who want jobs will be at work within a short time.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 There are no indications that this country's overwhelming safe guards will stave off a dangerous :nflationary period. All the signs point the other way.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 The breach between Russia and her erstwhile Allies, the United States and Britain, may place Ger many in favored position in the Europe of tomorrow. Both Ger many and Japan may find them selves being courted by their form CT enemies since, if the one-world idea is to be discarded in favor of a two- world concept, the alignment of these two countries will be most important.
 Persons whose birthdate this is are promised by the stars. A year of harmonious social relations and an occupational change.
 Children bern today will have well-balanced characters and ex- ceptionally fine minds. Their na- tural independence will make them stubborn and recalcitrant as children but under the patient and wise guidance of intelligent parents these traits will be nodded into valuable character assets.

Kettle and Pot
(Washington PoSt)


 It ought to occasion no surprise at all that the head of the National Association of Manufacturers has expressed praise for the head of the United Mine Workers Union MT. John L. Lewis, according to statement made in Chicago the other day by MI. Robert R. Wason "has always worked in the interest of the people he represents" No doubt MT Lewis would be glad to say much for MT. Wason There is kinship between them in the myopia with which they view the interest of the people they represent and in the degree to which all other interests are excluded from their vision.
 We should think it not unlikely that number of Americans would disagree with MT Wasons ob- servation that "the royalties of John L Lewis are to America first and foremost" This is simply to say MT. Lewis tends to press his own concept of the special and immediate interest of the people he rep resents with ruthlessness that leaves entirely out of account the welfare of the rest of the Nation MT. Wasons admiration of this -mndedness stems, no doubt, from his practice of it. The one man aims wreck wage sabilization, the other to wreck price stabization. And since wages and prices are but opposite sides of the same coin, they recognize that victory either will victory for both. Hence the alliance between them and the joint alleg- lance to a motto which reads The public be damned

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 but do not compel"
SUNDAY, JUNE 16
HEART AND HOME

HEART AND HOME
 The stars favor all women upon whom circumstances have imposed the primary responsibility for har- monys and stability in the home and family. Eighty, immature and irresponsible wives will do well to recognize and discharge their ob- ligations to others and to think less of themselves.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Free spending is not necessarily a sign of sound prosperity and wise business heads will be as concerned about the solvency of their custo- mers as they are about their own.
 NATIONAL ISSUES M
 Rigid enforcement of flying regu- lations and compulsory installation of all proved safety equipment, in- cluding radar, will presently pre- vent such accidents as have oc- cured in New York where airplanes crashed into skyscrapers.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 In time the secret of the atomic bomb will be shared with all na- tions but not until the United States is assured that Russia is willing to check her expansion ann bitions. Though Russia's physicists insist they have discovered the. sec ret by their own efforts, the world at large has seen nothing to con- firm this claim. M
 Persons whose birthdate this is are promised by the stars: A year of health and happiness, but not without minor problems.
 Children born today will be en- ergetic and intelligent.

The Washington Merry-Go-Round
fContinued from Page One)


 Eisenhower said thanks, he'd Keep it in mind.
 Ambassador Messersmith in bu- enos Aires also had cabled Wash ington that the impression preva- lent in Argentine Government cir- cles was that Braden was all wash ed up as Assistant Secretary oI State in charge of Latin American affairs, and that was why Argen- tina was now trying to deal direct with ''realists" in the U. $. Army
 Braden pointed this cable out to his chief, Secretary Byrnes, and protested that Eisenhower's actions were underminging the State De- partment. As a result, Eisenhower promised to make it clear to Won der Becke that final Army deci- sions must come from the State Department.

TRIBUTE TO U. $. MILITARY
 MIGHT

All this had taken place before the Won der Becke interview. When the interview finally occur red, only five men were present. Eisenhower was flanked by Lieut.. Gen. Hoyt Vandenberg, new Chief of Combined U. s. Intelligence and nephew of Senator Vandenberg. General Von der Becke was accom- panied by Col Arturo Bertollo, Argentine Military Attache, and the fifth man was Lieut.. Col. Gre gorio Marquez, Puerto Rican of- ficer who acted as interpreter.
 Von der Becke began by telling Eisenhower that both he and Per on now regard U. s. military genius as the worlds greatest. Eisenhower was courteous enough not to re- mind him that two days before D-Day he had also predicted that Europe never could be invaded.D
 The Argentine general then went on to explain that Peron's policies were not aggressive. Their sole purpose, he said, was to revitalize Argentine political and social con- sciousness, long dormant under a series of corrupt governments. Ma tionism and armed strength, ar gued the General, who is of pure German descent, were being stres- sed only as part of the program and not with any thought Of at tacking neighbor countries or of spearheading an anti-U. s. bloc in Latin America.
 "On the contrary" Won der Becke continued, Argentina whole heartedly supports President Tru- mans plan for inter-American mil itary cooperation through stand ardization of equipment and train- ing methods"
 What troubled Peron, he said were certain phrases in President Trlman's message asking Congress to pass the Standardization of

ute. This is unprecedented in the mere exchange of formalities between Army Chiefs, who are not supposed to discuss policy, espec- ially when one of them is officially on his way to John Hopkins for health check-up. Eisenhower's lengthy conference. Braden com plained. had compromised the State Departments entire position.
 Note = This columnist, having long covered Latin American af- fairs, for years has watched mili- tary juntas built up and wars brewed through the race of arm- aments Latin American generals can and will secure arms wherever they can get them Bofors, Vick- CTS, U. S. secondhand peddlers, or from the Government Of the Unit ed States. Either way. arms always create trouble. Only way trouble can be avoided is by an inter-Am- erican and control defense agree ment. That is why the State De- partment doesn't want to put the cart before the horse; also why
 Eisenhower's geniality and U. s
 Army meddling can have under
 mining consequences.

ALASKA DISCUSSED

lack Stinnett Associated Press feature correspond ent has the following to say on the future Of Alaska:
 The covered wagons preparing for rendezvous apain only this time they will be LSTs and CATS for the pioneers of 1946. Destination: Alaska.
 a Ever since the Alaskan coast and the Aleutians became important to our defense, G. I.s and their officers have been bombarding Alaskan Delegate E. L. Bartlett his predecessor Anthony J. Dmond. and the Department of the Interior with questions about oppor- tunities in Alaska.
 So far, obstacles in the way of pioneering in Alaska have been too great to be overcome by the average individual The expense of getting there alone IS con- siderable The additional expense of maintenance, housing and transportation while one LOOKS around make the experiment almost prohbitive.
 Although Interior and the Delegates office Tn the Capito here have been generous in dong out lnforma on whenever it is requested the residents of Aaska their Chambers of Commerce etc. have not been too eager to encourage migrations.
 There is good reason for this. Nobody knows better than the Territorys inhabitants what the propiems are of locating and making living there. To invite an influx of persons ill equipped by temperament, phvsoue and finance to withstand the vcissitudes of Alaska would be only to increase its problems oi ree and unemployment thousandfold
 Alaska's Governor Ernest H. Gruening once said that decent independent living could be worked out in the Territory by any with the pioneer spirit

STUMBLING-BLOCK BRADNN

At this point, Von der Becke really turned on the man-to-man stuff and spoke bluntly. Assistant Secretary of State Braden, he con- fided, was the only stumbling block to the establishment of the best relations ever enjoyed between the Unitd States and Argentina.
 Thereupon, he. handed Eisenhow- CT an English translation of se- cret memorandum prepared by Peron and his advisers-including of course specifications for the equipment and training facilities which Argentina hopes to secure through the American mili- tary cooperation plan.
 Present Argentine material is entirely obsolete, Von der Becke went on to explain, and must be replaced from one source or an-

other. Brazil now has a modern streamlined army; and Argentina, as the most advanced" nation in South America, cannot afford to be outdone. It is the earnest desire of Peron and his Army chiefs to obtain their new arms in the United States, he said; but they must be obtained promptly, at all costs. (Von der Becke did not mention Russia by name, but the implication was strong that the only other source of extensive arm- ament supplies was Soviet Russia)
