Bartlett Wants Alaska 10 Be Real Fortress; Talks of
 Housing Which Is Problem

WASHINGTON, Oct. l4.-R- Alaska should be built into fort ress vita added defenses on the Arctic coast, Delegate Bartlett said on his return to Washington from two months in the Territory.
 The government is building a large airfield at Fairbanks and plans another at Nenana but these are not sufficient to meet the sit uation if we are attacked" Bartlett said
 NO one knows what Russia is doing on its side of the Boring Sea but we know that Siberia is heav- fly populated with millions of in- hahitantS while Alaska is sparsely populated.
 If an attack came it probably would come from the north and we should have defenses on the Arctic coast"
 Bartlett told reporter the hous- ing situation in the Territory is desperate" and that many people coming to settle are forced to re- turn to the United States because they cannot find homes or even hotel rooms.
 Housing is our most pressing problem right now he said.
 In Fairbanks and Anchorage 1t is worse than anywhere in the United States"
 Bartlett said he expects House passage of the Alaska statehood bill at the next session and he hopes to be able to get Senate ap- proval before the session ends.

 JAP TREATY
Industry Needs Represen. fdtive in State Dept. 10
 Guard Interests

WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.-lR- Rep Tollefson tRWash) said to- day he hopes to stir greater in- terest hy the State Department in the fishing industry and get in- ternational fishery negotiations placed in the hands of an official of policy-making rank
 The fishing industry, particu- larly that of the West Coast Tol- lefson told a reporter, is much concerned about the State Depart ment's apparent lack of interest in the fishing industry.
 Tt has no official of policy making rank who knows anything about the fishing industry and oui fishing people want such mar in the Department to watch out for their interests in negotiating treaties
 Tine Washingtonian said the fish ing industry is particularly wor- ried about low it will fare when the Japanese peace treaty is nego- tiated.
 Our fishermen fear that the Japanese will be given rights to fish for salmon in Alaskan wat CTS and this should not be per mitted," Tollefson said
 They also fear the Japanese will be given exclusive fishing rights to fish in the mandated islands where American fishing in- terests are now exploring the fish ing banks and they think the De- partment should see to it that such rights are not granted to the Japanese.
 "Cuf fishermen also are much concerned about the importation of fish products from Japan.
 Because of the lower scale of living, Japan is able to send to this country fish and fish products cheaper than the Americans can produce them. Such importations should be limited
 Tollefson said he intended to discuss the problems with the De- partment and urge the appoint ment of a top official to handle such questions.

The W ashington
 Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON


 WASHINGTON-All is not ser ' ne behind the iron curtain. In ' act, quite battle between satel- ' te diplomats and comrade Vishin- ky was staged recently on-of all faces = the palatial Long Island state of the late J. Pierpont Mor- an.
 Probably the Wall Street banker kould turn over in his grave if he new that secret Communist strat- | BY was now being debated at his Inetime summer home near Glen tove, but to the J. P. Morgan es- 'hte, now owned by the Soviet Gov |rnment. hulking Andrei Vishinsky |ast week invited Czech Foreign Minister Jan Masaryk, Polish dele late Oscar Lange, and YugoslaV Sava N. KoSanovic, to- kether with several of their staffs. Actually it was Czech Foreign Minister Masaryk. who grew up in The LISA and in London, who asked Eishinsky to call the meeting, be- kause he and the other satellites were worried over Vishinsky's fiery |nti i-American blasts.
 pr. Lange, who deserted his Am frican citizenship plus a professor |hip at the University of Chicago To be Polish Ambassador, joined With Masaryk and the Yugoslav in Feminding Vishinsky that all three fountries were in the middle of diff Ficult economic negotiations with |he USA-negotiation aimed to help their war-stricken countries. These talks, they said, were not helped by Vishinsky's "warmonger- Ing" tirades which they described bs inaccurate, in poor taste and hlienating large sections of Ameri- ban opinion.
 This advice from his satellite col leagues sparked the grizzly haired Soviet prosecutor into towering Fage. Using words unprintable in family newspaper, he dashed back h. his critics as if they were the beven Russian generals whom he tonvicted of treason and had shot before the war.
 HEADS TO ROLL, VISHINSKY?
 The Polish, Czech and Yugoslav delegates were guilty of appeasing Wall Street, stormed Vishinsky. They must shake the dust of Wall Street from their feet and take an active stand behind Russia. Russia had been forced to carry the en- tire European offensive, he com plained, because the Socialists and Social Democrats within the Soviet bloc were squeamish, timid and afraid to face realities.
 Much more than mere American public opinion was at stake, fumed the uncomradelike comrade, namely the working class movement of Europe, which now was paralyzed by 1eft-wing satellite fear to take the offensive.
 Russia is not afraid to take the lead" was a rough translation of complaint. We are the Jacobins of the world situation. We are not afraid to go to the fore.

WIND HITS GALE LIKE
 VELOCITY
Storm Warnings Hoisted- On Atlantic Coast Tropi-
 cal Storm Rdges

1 SEATTLE. Oct. 14-tR-A wind storm whipped the Southeast AL aska and British Columbia coasts at 40-mile- hour velocity today. the weather bureau reported. and headed toward Washington and Oregon.
 At Ketchikan, Alaska, the wind prevented the steamer Aleutian from completing the loading of southbound cargo. The steamers mooring lines tore two cleats from the Ketchikan Cold Storage dock and the high wind kept many small boats in the Ketchikan Har- Dor and drove others to shelter in nearby waters.
 Storm warnings were raised at 8 a. m. today on inland waters of Washington and along the Wash ington- Oregon coasts to Cape Blan- co. The storm moved southeast after sweeping along the Aleutian chain yesterday.
  On Atlantic Coast
 HATTERAS, N. c, Oct. l4.--tR --The tropical storm, which cost Florida millions of dollars in dam age, lowered off the North Caro- lima Coast today, drenching the outer banks with heavy rains and flashing exposed areas with winds up to 50 miles an hour and high tides, but causing little property loss
 The Washington weather bureau reported at 10:30 a. m, that the center, now ill defined, was about 70 miles southeast of Cape Hat teras. At the same time, the bur eau said, a second center had been located by airplane observation, some 180 miles southwest of the original center Little movement had been indicated during the last six hours.
 Winds at the center were esti- mated at 80 miles an hour, on the coast a velocity of 50 to 60 miles was predicted.
 The resort community of Wrightsville Beach, near Whining ton, N. C., suffered $25,0O0 damage to it's gas mains and sewer pipes last night.

the observtion that European pic

answer publicly, with careful
broadening of their "a's" to imply
they knew at least as much about
art as Goldwyn. Others Just cut
