mCndations with respect to amendment of the Social Security Act Particularly significant these sug- gested with respect to unemployment insurance In an abstract in the Social Security Bulletin it is said that If a FedeTal-State system Of unemployment insurance is continued" then legislation should be drafted to impose a special Federal payroll of 1 per in place of the existing Federal tax Out or
 the proceeds Congress would appropriate the several States funds for administrative expenses and for the payment of benefits But-and what is a most im- portant but-Congress would be asked to fix certain minimum standards to be maintained by the States before these could obtain the called grants. Among these would be. A maximum weekly benefit of at least s25 duration of benefits for at least twenty-sX weeks and provision that voluntary leav ing a job without cause. discharge for misconduct or refusal of a suitable job would not bar worker from benefits except for a waiting period of four weeks.
 There are those in Washington who have always been annoyed that the States should be allowed to exercise any independence of judgment about unem- poynent insurance This latest plan to make the Federa-State system about 99 per cent Federal is dsarmingly simple The Federal government would impose a tax which the State could easily or as justifaby collect It would then the tax collected in Virginia for instance, the means of compelling Virginia adopt standards and conditions for benefit payments which Virginia would not adopt of it's own free will from its own knowledge of local conditions
 Regardless of the makeup of the Social Security Board that agency from beginning to end displayed
 consistent hostility against State discretion in the field of social security In weighing final recom- mendations of the board Congress will be wise to take that ng-standng bias into account

ment toward paylng it ott, the Films recently delivered to the Russians 25,00O tons of newsprint. The Russians in turn are selling it in New York
 Interesting facts, however, are the price and the buyers. The price is s183 ton FOB New York! This contrasts With the average price in New York today of around S84 a ton During the war. OPA held prices down to S55.
 Even more interesting, however, are some of those purchasing this high-priced Russian neWsprint
 Among the Soviet's bitterest cri- tics in the USA, is Norman Chand- Ter, publisher of the Los Angeles Times. His paper has poured out a steady stream of vitriol about all things Russian When it came to Russian neWsprint, however, Chand- Ter swallowed his pride and bought a good slice of the Soviet cargo at the exorbitant price of S183 a ton.

 The records of the Superior Court Of New Haven. Ct. f7-26-17 show that he was cited by Judge Donald Werner as having committed adul- tery in the divorce case ol Heris Ys. Eeris.

 In such bad repute is Rev Dan iels with the Greek American com munity, that the St. Sophia Church Of Washington has adopted a standing bylaw that he may not enter the church even as a wor- shipper
 No wonder many Greeks were shocked and amazed that this man should be received by the President of the United States, be entertained in the company of his military aide, and appear to be advising the President on Greek policy
 Congressmen who have been looking into the Greek Church in- fluence at the White House at first were inclined to think that the contacts of the Royalist Archbishop and Rev. Daniels were purely social. However inquiry at the State De- partment has developed that in one case they succeeded through their friend General Vaughan-in over ruling an Assistant Secretary of State who had authorized a pass port to an American citizen of Green origin. Daniels protested through General Vaughan - that the passport applicant was unsym- pathetic to the King ot Greece. And they got their way. The pass port was withheld
 If Greek Church Royalists are able to reach into the State De- pertinent in regard to passports, some Congressmen are wondering what influence they may have on the most vital foreign policy step this country is taking in many years. While agreeing with Presi- dcnt Truman's broad objectives they are worried about some of the Greeks palace guard who appear

THE RED CROSS CALL

The American Red Gross Carries On That is the slogan behind which the noted humanitarian organization is rallyng in it's l947 roll call now in progress in Juneau. And We believe it. pretty good slogan because the funds sought needed to carry on the vast burden of humantaranism which the Red Cross has been shoudering in recent years.
 Our quota this year is s8811, of which s62ll will stay in Juneau for services in this The lesser sum which will be sent to national headquarters will still be used on war related services at home and and overseas.
 Concretely the Red Cross program now IS three fold Providing emergency services to veterans and their families at home and in hospitals, providing wholesome recreatona and welfare services to men still in uniform overseas and continuing program of emergency disaster preparedness and relief along with various peacetme health and safety educational measures
 The Red Cross still has 29OO workers serving overseas and while it's work in Army and Navy hos pals and other installations is decreasing work with veterans and their families has increased.
 All Juneau civic organizations have contributed their support to the drive and if a volunteer worker has failed you, two booths are being main tained by volunteers in the Federal Building and the Ba1anof Hotel where you may take out your l947 membership from 10 a. m. to 5 p. m. each day The drive will end March 3l.

India's Princely States
New York Times

 A little light has been shed on a darkening picture by the decision of the Indian Princes to negotiate with Congress party leaders joining the delibera- tons of the Constituent Assembly. Should they agree to help draft a national Constitution. the Moslems would be left in opposition They of course by far the most important minority, representing a quarter of Inda's total population. But the prncely states ruled by local potentates some of whom are than puppet Princes, make up another large fraction of India's millions If there IS to be any real Indian union they must be absorbed as essential elements in the national structure. Recently their representatives reluctant first to join the Assembly, and thus far absent from their allotted seats have shown increasing signs of cooperation.
 In December the British Government affirmed the principle that it could recognize Constitution imposed on an unwilling part of the community The dominated Assembly thereupon offered the Mos lem League a somewhat equvoCal olive branch in- cluding additional concessions it would help frame the Constitution It is thought that the League might have accepted this offer had not series of arrests of Moslem leaders in the Punjab almost immediately followed Indian Islam stirred into anger. The League violently rejected all offers short of Pakistan and complete autonomy Pandit Nehru now insists that Moslem members withdraw from the interim gov ernment The Hndus themselves split into hostile factions revolutionary and conservative. The picture is still dark except for this latest and tentative ad- vance of the Indian Princes

clcse to the White House throne. JUSTICE FRANKFURTER
 HECKLED

Lawyers practicing before the Su- preme Court long have wished they could turn the tables on talkative, irquisitive Justice Felix Frank furter
 During almost every case argued before the Court. Justice Frank furter subjects the attorneys to a barrage o1 questions. Sometimes the grilling is so continuous that a lawyer finds all his time taken up with the Frankfurter repartee, has little time left to present his main argument. Privately they wish they could ask the Justice a few questions themselves.
 It remained for young Harvard law professor to turn the tables and heckle Justice Frankfurter while he was making a speech,
 The occasion was the annual law review dinner of the Harvard Law School Frankfurter, former Har- yard prol essor, was the guest of honor Called up to speak. the ltarnedy Supreme Court Justice pont. Heated in his usual manner. He talked the way he writes, re- plete with Victorian phrases.
 In the audience was FeliX's old colleague, Professor Thomas Reed Powell, himself an authority on the Supreme Court and author of a book cn the Courts encroachment on state police power. In no awe Of the Justice Powell whispered audibly, sometimes derisively, com mcnting on his friends manner isms
 Robert Braucher, young assistant professor and former student of Justice Frankfurter's, who dared heckle openly. The Justice was talking about the racial and reli- gious freedom of the Harvard Law School
 We can be very proud" he said, that everyone is admitted no mat ter what his color or creed.
 At this young Braucher rose, started to challenge Frankfurter regarding the color line.
 Sit down you. .' roared the Justice, his voice trailing off into an inaudible name
 Braucl1er did. Later he wrote { Frankfurter 2 note of apology Frankfurter, however, has a long memory. Backstage betting is that at the end of the school term, Braucher will be dropped

Spider Is Modern
In War Methods

SYDNEY. Australia g (AP)T-
Australia has a flying spider
which knows all about air at
tacks and is a past master at
camouflage.
Actually, naturalists say, the
spider (Attus Volans) does not
fly but leaps and then glides to
its destination when bouncing on
victims. Skin flaps provide wings
for the gliding operation.
Camouflage is used when the
spider comforts its body so that
it looks like one of the Austria
liam flies. When fly alightssthe
spider leaps upon it and kills
