SS. Alaska May Proceed With Cement Patch

CORDOVA, P)-Placing of a strong cement patch may enable the steamship Alaska, damaged oh going aground near here Sunday, to proceed to Seattle, E. J. Kra- tochvil, district ship salvage off cer of the l7th naval district, said.
 Accompanied by five men and bringing heavy and light diving equipment, Kratochil arrived from Kodiak in a navy PBY. He is a veteran of l8 years navy service and claims the diving record of $50 feet in light gear.
 Twenty-one of the 90 passengers were flown to Anchorage yester- day, but no decision has been made as to the others, the steam ship company agent here said. They and the 100 crew members still remained aboard the ship be- cause of the lack of accommoda- tions ashore.
 The freighter Terminal Knot which arrived last night began taking off the cargo. The No. 2 hold was cleared of water by pumps and it was lowered six feet in No. 1 hold
 Repair work may take three days or more, officials said, with the bay quieting down for diving work and the temperature moder- ating from yesterdays 16 below coldest in history here. Services ot an Army PIT boat and the Coast Guard boat Cedar which arrived today will not be needed.

Kai-Shek Recalls Leaders From U. 5.

WASHINGTON, - (P - The breakdown of Chinese peace nego- tiations was reported today to have prompted Generali s m o Chiang Kai-Shek to recall his top military leaders, Gen. Ho Ying- Chin, from tue United States.
 Chinese officials said that Gen eral Ho, who currently is China's representative on the United Ma tions staff committee, probably will leave for home this month.
 Ho and Ambassador Wellington Roo paid what they termed a courtesy call on Secretary of State Marshall earlier this week.
 China's wartime chief of staff, Ho is rated an uncompromising foe of the Communists. He long has been identified with the ex- treme right wing of the Nanking Nationalist regime which Marshall has blamed, along with Commun- ist extremeists, for the failure of his efforts to effect settlement of China's civil strife.
 The generals transfer to the United States last year was viewed at the time partly as a means of giving Marshall a free hand in trying to bring the moderates to- gether.

the largest for any similar period
since last September, and amounted
to over So billion.
Volume of $4,000 shares topped

Investor pessimism in the face of

be held in Omaha, Nebr. The
purpose of this regional meet
ing will be to clarity, condense
and coordinate the testimony
to be offered by proponents of
the project in Washington and
to urge that hearings be continued
at several points in the Missouri Val
ley, so that congress may have full
expression of grass roots opinion on
the measure.
The new MVA bill was introduced
in the Il. s. senate about thirty days
ago. 1t is now sponsored by Senator
Murray d., Montana, and four other
senator's two of whom are Republi-
cans 1t provided for full, multi
purpose, co-ordinated development of
theeentire Missouri River Valley under
a broad plan similar to that employed
by the very successful IVA.
The new bill differs from the MVA
bill which was sponsored by Senator
Murray in the last congress in that it
has been more carefully and restric-
lively drawn, to protect existing water
rights, provide for participation by
states, counties, and communities,
guard the valuation of large blocks of
land that will be within reclamation
units, assure private rights for minor
stream Improvement, and assure full
participation by existing federal
agencies such as Bureau of Reclama-
ton, Soil Conservation Forest Service
and others in the portions of develop
ment work they are best equipped to
perform.
After the MVA directors meeting,
the following statement was released
to the public:
"MVA will constitute one of the
major political issues in the congress
sional elections in Montana next year
The people's voice. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1939-1969, 1947-05-30

The opportunity and right, of not only
Montana, but the entire northwest, to
expand and develop will be determined
by the fate of MVA. 1t is a peoples
project, and as such is opposed by
every predatory interest, not only in
Montana but in the entire nation.
Certainly the aggressive and intelli-
gent common people who made this
country are now sufficiently advised
as to the evil program of reaction now
spearheaded by NAM. 1t has been
unfolded day by day in proposed APP
preparation cuts in the present con-
gress: Tax relief for the greedy-not
the needy, stop all western develop
ment that will not pay us a direct
and perpetual monetary toll. This in
cluded Reclamation projects, urgent
ly needed power production, REA
Co-ops, Soil Conservation the Triple
A program, and other vital functions
of the u. S. Department of Agricul-
ture, as well as equally vital functions
of the Department of the Interior.
Yes, remove all price and priority con-
trolls so that the wealth of the nation
may flow in ever wider and fuller
streams into the Golfers of Wall
Street, stop all the peoples projects.
Turn the balance of the public domain
over to a few of the big stockmen,
put all labor in a straight jacket and
let a handful of absentee landlords
own and control the northwest.
These are the matters that will be
settled in Montana next year. They
will be all wrapped up in the MVA
fight. We MVA-ers accept the chal-
lenge."

REHEAnING URGED

Several prominent attorneys in the
state have been granted permission to
appear as friends of the court urging
man against the Helena school board
The formal application for a rehear-

school board was given by District
Judge Taylor of Anaconda, but the
Judgment was set aside by the sup
RENE court in three to two decision
with Chief Justice Adair and Associate
Justice Metcalf dissenting from the
majority opinions.
The petition for a renearing asserts
that the opinion Of the majority of
the supreme court is in conflict with
the law and previous decisions: 1t
does not place all blame on the court
however. 1t declares that the school
code lis so confused and contradic-
tory as to require the combined talents
of Justinian, Plato and a Confusius
for it's proper Interpretation and con-
struction
While the majority opinion and vir-
tually all of the argument in the ear
lier phases of the case were based on
the presumption that a teacher may
not enjoy the advantages or the auto
matte reelection process unless under
contract, the petition for rehiring
