NOW MILLIONS ALASKA ACRES ARE RE0pENED
Restoration of Two Vast Trdtis Refufes Charges,
 Claims Sety. Nug

WASHINGTON. Aug. Is. The Government is releasing 18,640,000 acres of public land in Alaska for private development under Federal mining and leasing laws, the h. terior Department announced to- day
 The action the Department said, is being announced also in Alaska by Secretary of Interior J. A. Krug. who is making his first official visit to the Territory. A state ment by Krug released here said:
 T am particularly glad to an- nounce the restoration of these areas to public use because it af- lords complete refutation of the charge that the Federal govern ment is seeking to prevent the development of Alaska by private enterprise. The restoration of these large areas to the public do- main status, coupled with the pro- gram for the release of more than l8.000,000 acres of land along the Alaska Highway for private de- velopment clearly shows the trend of government policy with respect to home rule in Alaska"
 The land included l5.600,00 acres on the Alaska Peninsula and 3,040,000 acres in the Katalla-W -Wak- atago region.
 These lands, together with about 48,800,000 acres in northern Alaska, 1, were withdrawn from public use in January. l943, as part of the governments program for the de- yelopment of possible petroleum supplies for the Armed Forces in that territory. The land ill north- ern Alaska is not being released at this time for public development. Krug said oil exploration work be- ing carried out there warrants the retention of restrictions in that zone.

The w ashington Merry -Go- Round
By DREW PEARSON

PARIS.-(By Wireless)-The best thing that has happened to the American Army in Europe is the arrival of the wives. U. s. troops which, by the way, have been doing a magnificent job wherever I've seen them-have been gwen a new lease on life by the arrival of their wives.
 It's a great sight to see Army husbands waiting for their better halves to arrive at railroad sta- ton. It's amusing, inspiring, pa thetic all at once. But most of all it's inspiring.
 Men who have faced all sorts of danger in battle stand on the station platform, nervous, persplr- ing and anxious. They carry llttle bouquets of flowers. The tram is late. The flowers wilt. II doesn't make any difference. They haven't seen their families TOT two, three, perhaps even four years and they're not quite sure what is going to happen. Then finally, the train arrives. The band plays Kiss Me Once ano Kiss Me Twice and Kiss Me Once Again" The reunited couples neeo no encouragement.
 a When the first trainload oi wives arrived at Bremefhaven anc took the long, slow trip dowr through Germany, Army bands were out to meet them at every station. The train was late anc

"BLA5TED OLD ROT" DE(RIED
 AT TREATING
New zedIdnder Says Get aOn With It-End "Qualk,
 Quaek, Quaek"

PARIS, Aug. 16. The Rus sian delegation tossed the mak- ings of a new fight between Vest ern and Eastern powers into the Peace Conference today and the New Zealand delegate, w. J. Jor- dan, in an outburst of temper, denounced the Russians for this blasted old rot"
 Lets do something Jordan shouted in exasperation at long speeches and delays after listen- ing to an argument by Soviet dele gate Andrei Vishinsky. Here we sit listening to quack. quack, quack, hour after hour. We are sick of it."
 Eliminate U. $. Vote
 Vishinsky insisted in an organi- rational meeting of the political and territorial commission on Ru- mania that only nations actually at war with the former enemy states should vote in the commits sions drafting recommendations for the five peace treaties The vote of France thus would be elim- mated from the commission on Rumania.
 In a meeting of the commission on Finland, Soviet Delegate N. " Novikov raised the same point which would eliminate the votes of the United States and France.
 Presumably the Russians planned to raise the same questions in the commissions for Italy, Bulgaria and Hungary.
 Russian Insists
 Despite Jordan's hot retort Vishinsky insisted upon his point and the matter was left for flu ture action. In the commission or Finland, Novikov drew quick re- ply from Hector McNeil of Britain that My government could moi accept the Soviet view of this matter" In the Finnish commis. sion, too, the Soviet declaration was noted in the minutes without fur ther action. Vishinsky said ht would ignore the harsh words ol the "temperamental delegate iron New Zealand but insisted "Wt shall never submit to angry words"
 Jordan was so perturbed tha his voice broke as he cried tht words This blasted old rot" af' ter Vishinsky's speech.
 Lets get on with the blasted Conference" he cried. Lets d something. Get a President in thu chair and let's get on with oul work. That's what people expec us, to do.'

 secretary of State Acheson said to- day the United States probably will send a note to Russia giving Ameri- can reaction to Moscow's demands on the Dardaneles and he strongly indicated it will oppose those de- mands.
 WASHINGTON, Aug. Is. - The United States reportedly is ready today to advocate some special transit rights for Russia through the DardaneIles.
 But this country is said to op- pose outright current Soviet de- mands for a hand in the military control of that strategic water way.
 Diplomatic officials suggest that possible step toward trying to work out the developing contro- versy may be a Turkish-called con- ference of the nations now parties to the Montreux Treaty governing the Straits.
 At the State Department, off, cials said there is no reason to be- lieve there has been any change in United States policy as pre- viously announced by Secretary ol State Byrnes. The principal point of this policy in relation to Rus sia is, that the Straits should bt open at all times to the transit o1 warships of Black Sea powers. Un, der the Montreux Convention Turkey has the right to close tht Straits in time of war or othel danger.
 The question of how far thi. government should go in backing Turkeys decNred opposition tt Russias demands is known to b. matter of considerable concerr to top officials here. Many art hopeful that the whole issue may be ironed out amicably in nego tiations among the powers.
 But some express belief pri i vately that the Russians are deat set on obtaining military base 1 in the Dardanelles and may b' extremely reluctant to compromis' on anything less.
