ELE( ITO N IN POLAND
 PROTESTED
United States Expresses DisdpprovaI-Situa-
 lion Delicate

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-United States disapproval of the Polish National elections next Sunday be- came an evident certainty today.
 Thus one of Gen. George c, Mar shalls first problems as Secretary of State may be to decide what to do about it.
 The Polish which finds Russia lined up with the Commun- ist controlled government at War saw against Britain and the United States--is one Of three in Eastern Europe that threatened to prove troublesome for Marshall.
 The other two.
 1.-An apparent effort by the Communist minority in Hungary to smash the power of the moder- ate Small Holders party.
 2.--Moves by the Communist gov ernment of Marshal Tito in Yugo- slavia to establish some kind Of economic bloc in the Balkans.
 Delicate Situation
 What makes the political situa- tion in Eastern Eurone particularly delicate at the moment is the fact that the Balkan peace treaties are soon to be signed. and, it is expect ed quickly ratified.
 These treaties provide for the withdrawal of Russian occupation troops from Rumania, Bulgaria and Hungary. In addition they impose a number of other provisions de- signed to restore the independence of the countries and to guarantee equality of trade opportunities throughout the Balkans.
 The Russians thus appear to be faced with a need to consolidate their position in Eastern Europe before the effectiveness of the peace treaties greatly curtails their free dom of operation there.
 The issue as seen by officials here is cnly slightly different in Poland.
 The ment who will be advising General Marshall on such matters regard the Polish election contest essentially as struggle between CD t!:e Communist dominated coal nlc gular government and @ the op- position Polish Peasant Party which United States diplomats contend could poll clear majority in a free electicn.
 Recently the United States sent a series of three notes listing charges of political oppression Of the Peasant Party Warsaw ignored them until yesterday Then the answer made clear that Poland was rejecting completely the American demands for a change in the elec- tion system.
 British complaints also have been rejected, and Moscow has announce ed that it considers the charges against the Polish government un- founded
 This means that Sundays voting will be held under conditions which this country has said publicly can not result in a fair and free bal lot. Officials left no doubt privately that the result will not be regard ed here as acceptable.

Editor, The Empire The public takes running water for granted until it's turned off A good public water supply is never news-ex- cept on the rare occasion when something goes wrong
 Many people not living in the upper part of Juneau are not familiar with the service rendered by the Nelson Water Company. This concern supplies water to a good portion of the residential dis trict from Starr Hill to Main Street along Fifth and Sixth Streets, also providing fire pro- lection in the Starr Hill District. The water supply is from the Northern slopes of Mount Roberts, where the water emerges from springs and talus slopes in an area of about one-half mile square Most of this watershed is above timber line, some in perpetual ice fields Before entering the tanks for distribution, the water is al lowed to percolate through nat ural filter of several hundred feet of gravel, which makes it clear, and pure, eliminating any need for chemical treatment.
 During the past ten or twelve years extensive replacements and betterments have Leen accomplish ed in the city and at the source of the water supply, making the system trouble-proof, which was evidenced during the past severe winter when the water flowed con- tinuously to all customers.
 Maps of all piping of the sys- tenn were submitted to the ap- praisers Black and Veatch Company when they appraised the Juneau Utilities in 1945. These maps showed that the greater portion of the Nelson System mains and piping had been renewed and re- placed in the last twelve years and that almost every service con nection had been gone over, re- renewed, or checked. This work has smoothed operations and has greatly eliminated trouble and in- terruptions in service to the pub- l lie.
