POSTWAR NAVY IN ALASKA

Stating that the navy was fully alive" to the strategic importance of the Alaskan area" Secretary Forrestal recently assured Dele gate Bartlett that the naval base at Adak would not be abandoned. The Secretary's assurances were given following Delegate Bart let's expressed belief that the maintenance of adequate naval forces in Alaska during the peri cd ahead is imperative.
 Congressional action in appro- priating funds will be the ruling factor in determining the scale upon which all naval bases of the United States can be maintained. The appropriation bill for the Navy Department is now being considered in Congress. but until it is passed by both houses, it is not possible to determine what funds will be available for Alaska bases, but it is understood sub- stantial sums have been requested by the navy.

 OF MEAT PLANTS
Relief of Meat Famine Nof Seen Until Fdte of Con-
 iroI Policy Set
(BY THE ASSOCIATED PREss)

A virtual famine in fresh meat for post of the nation was reported today r with no indications of im- mediate relief-as the Senate pre- pared to act on the House. approved compromise OPA bill retaining meat price controls.
 Some packer industry spokes- men said should the bill become a law, keeping the lids on livestock and meat prices, the country's meat supply will get even worse"
 Others asserted the scarcity would continue for scveral months. One large packer said the shortage would continue until the fate of OPA is determined" There were threats of complete shutdown of facil- ities because of expressed dissatis- faction over the OPA bill provis- ions.
 Fish and foul and eggs replaced the main meat dish on the coun- trys dinner table as hundreds of butcher shops across the country closed. Operations in packing plants dropped to new all time low levels.
 Clerks in some of the butcher shops in Portland, Ore, are work ing part time and, a meat cutters union official said, they go fish ing so they can get enough meat for their town table, G. E. Carl son, Secretary of the Independent Retail Meat Dealers in Portland, said that dealers will get "panicky pretty soon."
 Seattle was not getting much meat. A check of one of the city's largest markets showed that five of six meat departments were vir- tually bare. One had 100 pounds of teef to meet demands totalling 2.000 pounds. At the sixth market, customers were four deep at the counter, which contained some meat.

Soviets Fail to Repdtriate Japanese Captured
 in MdnChurid

TOKYO. June 6.-Chairman George c. Atcheson. Jr., told the Allied Council for Japan. today, in effect, that Russia was violating the Potsdam surrender terms by failing to repatriate Japanese cap tured in Manchuria.
 The Russian member said the Council wasn't supposed to talk about. that; it wasn't on the agen- da.
 The American chairman made his point this way:
 He quoted the Potsdam declara- tion, to which Russia was party, as providing that Japanese mili- tary forces. after being completely disarmed, shall be permitted to re- turn to their homes"
 He followed with figures on the percentage of Japanese repatriated from various areas-including: So- viet areas, zero percent.
 (American news correspondents who entered Manchuria last Febru- ary drew from the Red Army com- mandant at Mukden, Maj. Gen. An- drei Kovtoun- -Stankevitch, the statement that disarmed Japanese troops in his area had been sent by train to work projects in Si- beria.)

The action was revealed in publish ed decrees of the Russian Soviet Federal Socialist Republic. Pre- cisely how many were uprooted and where they were moved, were not announced.
 CThe revelations were first off cial Russian announcements of treachery affecting territorial units of the Soviet Union during the re- cent war)
 A decree said many Chechans and Crimean Tartars voluntar- fly and together with the German army waged an armed struggle against units of the Red Army. Un- der German orders. they also form ed diversion bands for a struggle with Soviet power in the rear
 Traitors Not Fought
 The decree also stated that "The main mass of the population of Chechen-Igush and the Crimean autonomous Socialist Soviet Repub- lies did not give opposition to these traitors and accordingly the Che chens and Crimean Tartars were resettled.
 The Ministry of State Control disclosed also that more than a score of factory, mill and mine executives had been punished for misappropriation or misusing funds in various kinds of plants and en- terprises throughout Russia.
 The Ministry said a favorite prac- tice was the Justification of pro- duction reports by directors and sub-executives in order to increase the prize money which was paid as reward to themselves and their friends.
