The new plant will have a capac-
ity of $4,000 barrels per day of crude
throughput and will include a cata-
lytic cracking unit. The plant viii
be of the most modern design, en-
bodying all the latest improvements.
The equipment will manufacture
the highest quality gasoline and
other products for the consuming
public Carter serves.
Schorp said the engineers are
now working on the design and
as soon as this is completed work
will begin. However, some delay in
the delivery of equipment may be
anticipated. He estimated the plant
probably would not be ready for
operation until 1913.
He said insofar as possible the
employees of the new refinery will
be recruited from the present Car
ter manufacturing organization.
'The new plant, which will cost
about $4,000, 600, win be the largest
of its type in Montana as well as
the largest in the entire Rocky
mountain territory, as far as we
know now" Schorp said.
Announcement of the refinery ex-
pansiOn program followed only a
few weeks the adoption of the
"Oval-E" as the new brand for Car
ter products for the large north
western territory in which it mar
kets.
Garter now has a 9,OOO-barrel
plant at Billings which it acquired
through purchase of the Yale Oil
Refining company properties four
years ago. This plant is operated
primarily on crude from Elk Basin,

ing his recent vacation cruise to Bermuda.
 Senator Theodore Green of Rhode Island complained that Truman had given his states famous resort, Newport, a black eye" by staying there only day and a half before skipping for Bermuda.
 I'll admit that we had an unu- sual spell of bad weather at New port while you were there" said Green, with dead-pan seriousness, but ordinarily Newport is much to be preferred to Bermuda in the summer"
 "Oh, l wasn't trying to snub Newport, replied Truman, thinking the Rhode Island Senator was ser ious, but a bad northeaster came up while I was there, one of the worst I've ever seen"
 Just the same, it was a mighty bum ad for Newport for the Presi- dent of the United States to run out like that on such short notice" !" persisted Green good-naturedly.
 "Okay, you win, Senator-I'll try to make it longer the next time, ' chuckled Truman.

that Senator Tom Connally of Tex as is a member of the committee, and remarked T seem to remem- Der that Tom has not been the most constant participant in the doings of the committee, anyhow.
 Tom comes around when you boys have a Texan on the stand" Vaughan continued Any time you wanted to get Tom to a hearing, all you had to do was call Jesse Jones, and you'd be sure to have Tom there to hold Jesse's hand and serve as counsel for the de- fenSe."
 Senator Mead remarked that he has always been impressed by the loyalty of Texans to each other and Vaughan agreed with him.
 Why, when the President fired Henry Wallace last week, one of the first things to come in was a wire from Tom Clark Cthe Attorney General, who is from Texas, urg- ing that Harry appoint Jesse Jones Secretary of Commerce"
 Vaughan also remarked that State pride was especially strong among GI's overseas.
 over in Potsdam last year, he said, The President reviewed the 84th Division-that's the Railsplit- ter boys, mainly from Illinois and Kentucky. Well, the President, Jim mic Byrnes, General Boiling of the 84th and myself were riding in a car when someone mentioned that the 84th had been trained in Texas. The President and I started to kid Byrnes that everywhere we went we saw troops from Texas, Missouri, and other states, but that we hadn't heard of any Carolinians up near the front. We really laid it on thick.
 All Oi suuucA' u4iC puSh PiA- vate driving our car just couldn't take it any more. He turned around to us and it sort of burst out of him:
 1T cant keep quiet any more. I'm a Carolinian-I live right across the street from Secretary Byrnes. And there are plenty more Of us right up here.
 We sure got a bang out of that kid. The President told General Boiling he was not to be disciplin- ed for opening up, and then Jimmie Byrnes and this kid talked about South Carolina"

Canadian Pacific steamers will continue to carry passengers be- tween Skagway and other Southeast Alaska ports during the remainder of this year The U. s. Customs Office here was advised late yester- day afternoon that the Treasury Department has renewed until midnight, December 31, the waiver iof coastal shipping law provisions relating to interport passenger traf fic as they pertain to travel to and from Skagway.
 The three months renewal of waiver was declared by the Treas ury Department, under the Second War Powers Act, upon recommends tion by the War Shipping Admin istration, and is effective with the present voyage of the Princess Louise.

ANOTHER COMMON STRIKE

Aaskans are getting used to strikes in the shipping industry that the latest walkout by the longshoremen isn't news. It was expected to follow the general maritime strike which has kept the ships from bringing needed supplies to Alaska for the past month And before that long list of work stoppages which started as soon as the war ended.
 However, the latest walkout leaves Alaskans facing
 gloomy immediate future Food stores are just about depleted and the boat which did clear for South east Alaska in the brief interim between strikes, even if unloaded, won't be enough. Ketchkan longshore- men stopped work on this ship yesterday
 Just what Alaskans do about all this we don't know. News stories are appearing in Outside newspapers illustrating the immediate need for send ing food and other necessities to Alaska. The ernment IS well aware of the situation but whether in this case and with elections coming up the gov ernmen will fit to discharge it's obligation to provide reasonable security for it's Alaskan citizens remains to be

was no danger of another war, he was sending a note to Turkey which sang another tune.
 The note to Turkey was not made public until four days later. Thus Stalin publicly put fears to rest, while simultaneously warning Tur- key that she must yield to Russia on the Dardanelles aHd that she must permit Russian troops on Turkish soil If not, the implied threat was war.
 Thus, despite Stalin's attempt to woo the world, his aims remain exactly the same. Furthermore, they remain exactly the same as those of the Czars before him. Finally, they remain today, with his allies exactly the same as with his old sparring partner, Hitler
 For, in l940, when Russia and Germany were under a non-aggreS- sion pact, the same MT. Molotov now QlcKerlng In Paris went to Der lin to dicker with Ribbentrop for terms under which Russia would come into the war against Eng land. The terms Molotov wanted were the Dardanelles, Iran, Iraq, the Balkans, and the mouth of the Red Sea. Hitler wouldn't give these terms, and Russia finally was forced into the war on the side of the AL lies, not against them.
 Now that the war is over, Stalin and Molotov are right. back where they were in l940-trying to get the Dardanelles and other long, range objectives.

PANAMA VS. DARDANELLES

Many people are sympathetic with RusSla'S desire for an outlet from the Black Sea. They compare the Dardanelles to the Panama Canal. This columniSt, for one, believes Russia has every right to a guar anteed outlet to the sea However, the world has come long way since the buccaneering days when Teddy Roosevelt euchred a lease on the Panama Canal, and today the U. $. has heen discussing joint weS- tern hemisphere defenses with Pan- American nations. Thus the time may come when a joint Pan- -Ameri- can army guards Panama, the Galapagos Islands, and other Stra- tegic western hemisphere areas.
 Russia, however, now goes back to cutthroat buccaneering, spurns the United Nations, and wages a war of nerves against Turkey to get what she wants.
 That is why Russia, despite pal liatlve statements by Stalin, is still a serious war hazard, and will con- tlnue to be until we have some way Of ensuring peace by making friends with the Russian people.

The Alaskans in their presentation before the governors commission wisely left to future discussion any detailed plan for meeting these problems. It is clear that there is simple, single action that will meet all needs. Perhaps the greatest need of all is for new shjps-a need that Washington's Sen Warren G. Magnuson attempted to meet during the last session of Congress when a measure for disposal of war shipping before the Senate. For various reasons these ships not suitable for the Alaska run but since they being sold, at fractions of their war time cost to foreign nations well as our own nationals, Magnuson proposed a similar subsidy rangement to allow Alaska ship operators to obtain new vessels at comparable costs His proposal rejected at the time not germane to the pending but it is evident that step be taken to provide government aid for rehabilitation of the Alaska fleet.

George Sundborg Secretary of the Alaska Deve- opment Board and Henry w. Clark who formerly held that position presented this problem in much detail to members of the governors advisory commission in Seattle recently At best the United States ships the Alaska ancient hulks, unable to compete with the much more modern Canadian vessels which operate from British Columbia ports. What is more, the Canadian ships meet their schedules, while ships sailing from Seattle may be much 10 days behind time in reaching their destinations. And recently, the Alaskans point out delays due ships being tied up through labor troubles have become chronic.
 Beyond this high freight rates are among the most important factors in the vicious circle holding hack Alaskan development. They increase the cost living and in call for wage rates that discourage any industries competitive with those existing elsewhere.

tion of goods in transit and the like. And the gov ernor's advisory commission is undertaking a very worthwhile step in public relations by seeing what it can do, at once, to remedy these matters
 But if Alaska is to make substantial economic progress better ship service is fundamental And that requires not only more and better ships but more regular service and lower freight rates.

The executive committee of the governors advis- cry commission has recommended establishment of an Alaska development committee to operate a per manent basis in constant touch with the Alaska De- velopment Board and with Seattle groups and ind- vduals interested in Alaskan problems. This IS a sensible step toward dealing with these matters on the long time basis that will be required And if the Alaska Development Board fit to accept the inv- tation to assign a full time staff to Seattle, the liason between Alaska and the State of Washington will be complete.
 Once the problems stated and understood, the first step toward solving them has been taken And solution of Alaskan problems is important alike the Territory and to the State of Washington that they merit the whole hearted attention that seems to be in sight.
