countries which may conceivaby be enemies at some future time This has lead to protest against sales of weapons to possible enemies One member of Con- greSS buntly predicts that Congress will impose a ban on such sales.
 This would seem to be a somewhat hysterical reaction to the pessimstic trend of foreign rea tions, else msapprehension of the military value of the weapons involved. In reality the equipment declared surplus and available for sale is not going to make any material difference in the military po- tential of buying nations.
 This country is so large and rich and strong that it does not need to fear the armed might of Yugcslavia or China Poland. It has such tremend- weapons in it's armory that it will not bother, in any conceivable future war with the light tanks, the field pieces, the military aircraft now burdening the armed forces in undue numbers.
 If want to learn from experience, should take pains to get rid of entire surplus of planes guns, tanks and ships, and then begin promptly a program of replacement with the newest and best equipment. France, after World War l. held on to her aircraft, already obsolete The result failure to keep with the progress of military aviation
 We cannot help ourselves by holding to large stocks of obsoescent weapons. Nor will seriously augment the strength of any possible enemy by selling surplus weapons. It is foolish to try to single against them, when the military value of the weapons and equipment involved is incon- siderable.

GOODWILL AMBASSADOR
 WALLACE

Force Dennis, Louisville, Ky Unquestionably one chief difficulty with any five-year plan for friend ship with Russia would be selling it to the Kremlin. So far, the Kremlin has been opposed to any thing like this, largely, l suspect, because they are afraid we might undermine their political system. Communism has been sold on the thesis that it has brought great gains to the Russian people tand compared to Czarist days, it has) but, when the Russian people see the high standard of living of Am orleans or even Western Europeans they can hardly believe their eyes.
 However, the Byrnes policy of iirmneSs toward Russia has the Kremlin worried, and I believe the top leaders might now be convinced that five years of real friendship would bring lasting gains to Russia. tO, lllCy liaFC NN would appease-a policy which would permit them to have their cake and eat 1t too.
 Ralph c. Busser, Jr., Philadel- phia-My idea in proposing that Henry Wallace go to Russia as U. s. Ambassador is because of his probable influence with the Russian people and Government.
 The men at the top in Russia are going to need a lot of selling on friendship, and Henry Wallace's sincere idealism plus his long, time sympathy for Russia should help. The Russian people, basically most friendly, unfortunately have been so unfairly informed by govern ment-controlled press that they don't know what the real score it,

PREVENT FIRES

This week, october 6l2 is our annual Fire Pre- vention Week throughout the nation the seven days in which added emphasis given to the terrible results of fire and ways to prevent the damaging blazes.
 Statistics show that 90 per cent of all fires could be prevented by simply taking reasonable precautions In Alaska, with it's many frame buildings cold winters and winds the hazards present.
 A fire at any time is a terrible loss But especially now with a critical housing shortage, the loss of homes apartment houses and other buildings is even more serious.
 So this week all Juneau and Douglas residents are urged to up for fire hazards in their homes and places of business. Make sure fire extngushers are in place and potent Clear out trash and rubbish Make sure your oil burners in good condition. Get rid of those dangerous electric cords that blow fuses or have them repaired
 Juneau is proud of it's fine Volunteer Fire De- partment and Douglas is proud of hers But good fire department alone, can't prevent loss from fires. This week, take little time to check through your and places of business looking for fire hazards It's common precauton and your duty.

(NeW York Sum
 Those who through investment in common stocks provide industrial workers with the tools wherewh to earn wages, can expect in the best of times net return of less than 1@ per for the risks they This is the conclusion of group of economists and business executives who, at the behest of the National Association of Manufacturers have been pre- pairing textbook on the American enterprise system. They base their estimate studies of the dividends Of all manufacturing corporations during the boom period from 1925 through 1929. Then the average profit this invested capital about 52i per cent The economists observe that all investors had elected to put their capital into government securities or high-grade corporations bonds they would have re- ceived average of about 42 per cent The differ ence of less than 12 per cent represents the reward for those who ventured of the area of glt-edged investment into the speculative field of stocks
 Of course, most of these persons hoped for larger returns and few rewarded But for the ma ior- ity the hope of big profits like bunch of hay suspended before hungry horse Remove the induce ment and the horse may stop. Take away from the under the individual enterprise system, that he may double his money, at least make a generous profit and he will to do his part keeping our economy moving If that hope be kept alive as it has been in the past with average return of less than 1I cent complain that the enterprise system depends for it's existence the payment of exorbtant profits.

ABOLISH AGGRESSIVE
 ARMAMENT

Constantine Brown, Washington, D. C.-You are absolutely right that total reduction of all aggres- sive armament between the United States and Russia should be the ul- innate goal of plan for peace My proposal of an immediate morator- ium on all rearmament should be merely start toward the abolition of all aggressive armament later.
 Robert Gros, Palo Alto, Calif.- Your fellow toWnsman, Herbert Hoover, was so right, back in the relatively peaceful days when we were trying to disarm, when he proposed that big battleships, long range submarines, tanks, and other offensive weapons constitute a haz- ard to peace and a temptation to make war This should be our aim

INSPECT ARMS FACTORIES

Al Cohn. Los AngeleS-One of the most important things we have to do to restore harmonious rela- tions with Russia is permit free access to both nations. At present, Russians come and go freely in the United States. They must have passports to enter, but once inside the USA they can go and come as they please They can count the number of munitions factories we have and the number of plants which are making atomic bombs. They can travel all around the atomic plant at Oak Ridge, Tenn, though they can't go inside 1t. Neither can American citizens, without very special passes.
 On the other hand, one thing that keeps U. s. Army Navy officers jittery is the fear of another Pearl Harbor They haven't got over the terrible error they made when the Japs caught them cold. They nev- CT want to get caught that way again. You can't blame them. el
 And the thing Army-Navy offi- cers fear most is a so-called suit case blitz' or a long-range atomic attack via the North Pole. This possibility is what makes some Army Navy people talk about pre- ventive war with Russia. st
 On the other hand, many Army officers I know would give Russia the secret of the atomic bomb if the Soviet would permit us free access to their factories and free exchange of information. Each side would then know what the other was doing. So far the Russians haven't been willing to do this. That is extremely significant. I am not prepared to say whether Bernie Baruch tactics or diplomatic bung- ling or plain Russian belligerency is the reason. But it's one of the most important points we must iron out if we are to win peace with Russia

RUSSIA NEEDS FUNNY PAPERS

Mrs. William Cone, New York City-I doubt if more than one or two publishers would object to my plan of Russian radio station and a Russian newspaper in New York to explain the Soviet viewpoint to the American people. This part of the Swear plan, of course, hinges on the Russians giving us reciprocal privileges in Moscow, and l am afraid we might have more trouble selling the idea to the Russians than to American publishers.
 However, think what American publishing ingenuity could do with a newspaper in Moscow! American newsmen could turn out paper so readable that it's circulation would hit every corner of the So- viet. I have always contended that one thing the Soviet system needed

BYRNES IS RIGHT

Harold Preece, Chattanooga, Tenn. II have known Jimmie ByrneS about 15 years, during which time I have probably disagreed with him more than otherwise However, am convinced: CD that he has grown greatly in stature; and @ that, after a lot of patience and so-called appeasement, his policy of firmnesS with the Soviet Gov ernment is right.
 My proposal of five-year plan for friendship with the Russian people in no way conflicts with Byrnes. His policy is aimed at the Russian Government; the five-year plan is aimed at the Russian people, many of whom do not know what their government is doing.
 Byrnes policy at the moment is negative and preventive. The five year plan for friendship is positive and constructive. The policeman on your beat may be fine, con- scientious guardian against crime But when he helps to organize boys clubs, as so many police do, then he is building constructively against crime at the source. That is the difference between the policy of lnmness and the policy of friend ship. Both are sometimes necessary, and Byrnes has been so busy with one he hasn't had time to concen- trate on the other.
 If Russia goes on the rampage in Turkey, or even threatens to, then Secretary Byrnes will be absolutely right in being firm, and I for one shall back him up.

one of our greatest strengths-then Russia must reduce her tremendous army. At present, the Red Army is only a little smaller than during the war. And for a nation geo. graphically contiguous to other European nations, big land army can be just as great an offensive weapon as bombers and battleships in fact, more so. All Russia has to do is give the order, and her tremendous army could sweep across Western Europe to the Eng fish Channel in three weeks.

We have been advised that a

March 18th. At a regular meeting
of the Civil Liberties League of

petition was adopted.
We feel that most of our estab-
lished morals, religion, social rela-
tions and educational efforts rest
upon foundations of economic ne

war period demands a new func-
ton on the part of Government
arising out of a new conception
of the things of value in life.
Things of the mind and of the
spirit, which are the things of
enduring reality.
We feel that the refusal of the
employing class to employ any
person because of race, creed,
color or national origin is merely
another form of discrimination; no
different from Jim crow-no diff.
ferent from segregation. We reject
these things because they degrade
us, make us feel inferior and deny
us the opportunity to develop
within ourselves the finer traits
of humanity.
