Gov Ernest Gruening in messages addressed to the House and Senate this afternoon said he has recsiv- ed advices from the Director of the Division of Territories that Delegate Bartlett's bill to authorize the Alaska Railroad to operate ocean going vessels has been killed by opposition of the Wartime Com mission, and it appears almost cer- tain that when vessels are turned back to private ownership. steam ship companies will refuse to oper- ate them in Alaska trade unless successful in obtaining rate in- creases which We oppose
 The Governor suggests quick &C., ton be taken by the legislature, re- ferring to Chapter 32, Session Laws of 1919, as higher rates, possibly 100 percent increase, would be disas- trous to the economy of Alaska. as rates are too high now.
 The Governor suggests the crea- ton of a transportation authority authorized to operate vessels but this power to be exercised only in case of emergency.

 Secretary of State Byrnes and French Ambassador Henri Bonnet insisted the Council should hear a statement from Iranian Ambassador Hussein Ala.
 A motion for postponement of the hearing was defeated by the Council when put to a vote, where upon Gromyko withdrew.
