President Aleman Addresses U. N.

NEW YORK, (Py - President Miguel Aleman of Mexico told the United Nations assembly in extra ordinary session Saturday that in- ternational cooperation was the only way to prevent mankind from falling into another conflict which would wipe out the present form of civilization.
 Taking the rostrum after assem- bly, president welcomed him a. one of the greatest contributo.'> 10 peace in our generation, Aleman Said
 "Only this cooperation can sue ceed in overcoming the difficu,- ties that have arisen at the close of the war and must, finally, con- vert into a state of peace-a true peace-the. uncertain period in which we have been laboring for several months"
 He was given a tremendous ova- ton as he began to speak.
 Aleman drove to the assembly hall at Flushing Meadow over rain-SWept streets to appear be- fore the 55 delegates as one of the highlights of his New York visit.
 Nothing indeed would be more disturbing than to acquiesce, either by convenience or fatigue, in a mere fiction of peace" Ale man said, "because peace is not an equilibrium of convenienceS but rather a firm determination of the spirit.
 And in order that such deter imitation may, at all times, vital izc the action of the United Ma tons, it is indispensable for this ganzation never to defraud the hope of free men everywhere"

What To Do With Lots Of Jade

SEATTLE, (P)-After recover ing approximately six tons of val uaDle jade boulderS, stolen from a storage lot recently, a representa- tive of the owners Saturday said he was awaiting orders from his head office in Los Angeles regard ing disposal of the semi-precious stone.
 Norman C. Stines, consulting engineer for the Arctic Circle Ex- .).J. Ion, inc, said his firm To- catei the jade in a vacant lot near #oOdlawn avenue and North 66th street shortly after noon Friday. It Was taken from a fenced-in lot 4t Elliott avenue and West Mer- cer Place within the past two weeks.
 Valued at between S2O,00O and S6O,OOO, in its present rough form, the jade was mined along the Ko- lux river in the northern part of the Seward Peninsula, and ship ped here in November.
 No police action was contem- plated on the case as no official report was filed with the depart ment. Stines said his firm knew who had taken the jade from the storage lot, but that he did nOj know whether or not any action would be taken.

Veterans Affairs Commission Makes Annual Report

JUNEAU, (P)-Member of the Territorial Board, appointed to ad- minister the loans and bonuses for Territorial veterans provided for by the l946 special session of the Ter ritorial legislature, met in Juneau last week to review the accom- pliShments of the agency during the eleven months in which it has been in operation and to formulate such new regulations as the expe- riences of the past months might prove advisable.
 The report of Noman Haley. Territorial commissioner Of veter- ans affairs who was appointed by the board last year to administer the provisions of the act, shows that in the period of less than a year since the agency began oper- ations, 231 direct loans with out standing balances totaling $1,134,- $l3.24 have been made and 933 bonuses paid. The average of bo- rISes paid is S380.
 In addition to the direct loans, banks in all Divisions of the Terri tory have participated under the loan guaranty provision of the act to the extent of 1855 loans totaling S922,975. This makes a total of 386 loans, totaling S2,56O, ,988.24, negotiated by the agency
 Of the direct loans, recapitula- ton indicated that the loans made included 84 for homes, 77 for small businesses, including mining, 38 for boat, 22 were personal, and five for farms.
 Administration of the act has been accomplished by personnel of fourteen, which includes the commissioner, four regional direc- tors, three secretaries for the re- gional directors, and an office force of six in the Juneau regional and head offices. Thus it will be seen that the agency has but one employee for each forty-two thou sand square miles in the Territory of Alaska.

that it is hopeless to seek an agree
-ment with Russia on the Balkans
and the Middle East, l answer,
how do we know? A program for
United Nations development in the
Balkans and Middle East has not
been tried.
AS for Russia's possible use of
the veto, we can no more justify
a position to bypass the United
Nations on that ground than a
private citizen can justify de-
cision to take the law in his own
hands because he fears he may
not have fair trial in the court
established to determine his rights.
If we took the matter to the
United Nations and the Russians
exercised their veto, the moral
burden would be on them. When
we act independently outside the
framework of the United Nations,
the moral burden is upon US.
IT IS sheer nonsense to assert
that we have sought solutions
through cooperation. America and
Britain have divided the oil of
the Middle East as though we were
the Conquerors and Lord Protec-
tors of The Realm.
At Yalta we solemnly agreed
that Turkeys grip on the Darda-
nelles would be Ioosened by mu-
tual consultation after victory.
At Potsdam we reaffirmed that
agreement. Not one step has been
taken in eighteen months Of peace.

For every glamorous admiral

ferences as friends. When Russia
completes for them we sound a fire

of the dirty work going on b,
This week the STAR learned
part of a story of hypocrisy and
double-dealing that makes the
obvious slanting of the pro-
gram seem innocent by compar-
ison.
Although the topic was suppos-
ediy: Should the Communist
Party Be Outlawed?", the moder-
ator, George v. Denny, and the
four debaters actually talked only
ON the question of what is the best
way to persecute Communists:
Is it better to outlaw the Com
munist party, or would it be more
effective to prosecute Communists
under existing laws:
1t was taken for granted by all
participants t n 1t Communists
were foreign agents." "subver-
sive," and therefore not entitled
to any constitutional rights.

TWO weeks before the broad
cast, the local Communist party,
learning of the topic to be dis
cussed, wrote to Denny demand
ing that Communist represen-
tative be given the opportunity to
participate on the negative side
of the question.
They received phone call from
Denny in reply a week before
the program was scheduled Den
ny refused, on the ground that
the Communist party was 'too
directly involved" in the subject.
Negotiations ontinued at
some length, and an hour before
the program went on the air
Denny finally areed that he would
call on William L. Patterson, Com
mHnist public relations director
here, for a statement of SO to 100
words (about half minute) dur
ing the question period.

PATTERSON was simply to
