U. 5. Is Morally Bound
On Shipment 10 Soviet,
State Department Says

The Senate Appropriations Com
mittee has been informed by State
Department officials that the United
States is morally bound to ship
Russia some $25,000, 900 in lend
lease pipeline" goods, despite a
congressional ban on such ship
ments after December 81.
This was disclosed last night by
Senator Bridges, Republican, of
New Hampshire, chairman OF the
committee considering whether Con-
gress should sanction the ship
ment now.
Controller General Lindsay C.
Warren has told the committee he
would not approve vouchers to cover
shipping expenses without congress
sional agreement.
In providing for liquidation OF
the lend-lease program Congress
prohibited payment of any admin
istrative expenses to ship supplies
after December 81, 1916.
Arrangements Held Invalid.
Mr.. Warren ruled that this out
lawed arrangements made for send
ing goods to Russia as we'll as China
Brazil, France, Belgium, the Neither
lands and Australia which were in
the lend-lease pipeline" before
Japan surrendered, under agree
ment they be paid by those
countries.
Chester Lane, Lend-Lease ad-
ministrator under the State De-
partment, said the agreement were
made before Congress fixed the De-
cember 81 deadline on payment OF
shipping costs. He said the foreign
nations involved would consider
failure to make the shipments as
arranged a violation of agreements
made in good faith
Mr.. Lane insisted to the commit
tee that no "subterfuge" was used
to try to get around the congres-
sional deadline. He said delays
partly caused by strikes and ma
terial shortages made it impossible
to complete the shipments before
December 81.
Chairman Bridges disclosed that
the committee was told the State
Department had arranged for in
terested governments to pay the
cost of the materials they had or.
dered under lend-lease contracts
Evening star., 1947-02-17

plus 2ls per cent to meet the ex-
pense of shipping them.
The Senator said the committee
was informed by E. L. Fisher, assist
ant general counsel of the Lend
Lease Administration, that the
State Department advised Russia
that if she would contribute 21a
per cent of the value of the goods
now, 2h per cent would be knocked
off what she might owe at the time
of final settlement.
Senator Russell, Democrat, OF
Georgia held that this plan con-
stituted "a subterfuge to escape the
intent of Congress.
Last year the State Department
explained that Russia was getting
about $3.50, ,000, 900 in goods and serv-
ices on credit basis, with most
of it already shipped.
The agreement, as, outlined by
the department, calls for payment
in % annual installments beginning
July /, 1854. The credit carries an
interest rate of 2as per cent be-
ginning July l, 1947.
Deposits Already Made.
If Congress refuses to act and
the Comptroller Generals ruling
stands, manufacturers of all the
lend-lease goods must be paid and
the goods then declared surplus
and sold, possibly for far less than

offered under the lend-lease agree
mentS.
Mr.. Lane added that foreign gov
ernments already have deposited
$873,211.98 to pay shipping costs,
and this would have to be refunded.
Congressional authority would be
needed for the refunds.
Under this plan, Mr.. Lane said,
the foreign governments would have
to take chances on getting the goods
at surplus sales and pay all costs.
This, he added, would be "particu-
larly offensive to a government like
Australia, which has already paid
for all the material in its pipeline
and would have to pay again to
purchase the material as surplus"

HOSPITAL, BUT NO
 DOCTOR IN BRISTOL
 BAY, SAYS PIONEER

Just forgotten land was the way Tom Gardner, Alaskan pio- ncer. referred tc the Bristol Bay area where there has been no doc tor since June. Gardner reported that people in the area are living in mortal fear of an epidemic Gardner will confer with officials of the Alaska Native Service here to see If doctor can be obtained for the 23 bed hospital at Dilling- ham that was built at the cost of S145,000 five years ago. The hospi- tai is at present stalfed by four registered nurses.
 Gardner said that most of the children in Dillingham; have colds and that there are a few cases of whcoping cough. Many parents are keeping their children away from school rather than risk .-css:ble exposure to disease.
 Serious cases are now Ceing flown to Anchorage. but this brings the cost Of medical care up to a prchibitive rate as the round trip fare to Anchorage is SIP. The hos pital not only serves the 500 people of Dillingham; but used for the entire Bristol Bay and the Aleu- tian Peninsula areas. He reported that Naknek has the same epidemic of colds and whooplng cough that is present in Dillingham;.
 Gardner said that 67 percent of the Territorial revenues come rom the Bristol Bay area and that in his estimation there was no reason why that area couldn't have some of the benefits.
 Gardner, who IS tha AlasXa Fish crmen's Union agent in Dillingham;, is also comforting wj.n Territorial Labor Department officials while in Juneau He is drafting a bill for introduction in Congress to provide for resident Alaskan fishermen to be given preference over outside la bor in the Bristol Bay area.
 Gillnetting from small boats is used exclusively in the Bristol Bay area and the boats are leased to the fishermen by the canneries. Gardner said that less than 40 percent of the boats this season were leased to Alaskans
 The bill that Gardner is drafting will provide for a gradual elimina- ton of outside fishermen at the rate of percent a year By 1858 this would result in 100 percent resident fishermen.

ROSE B0WL. SE I up IS
 pUz zLIN 6
By BOB MYERS

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 31.-A-It probably won't happen, but the Pacific Coast conference Rose Bowl race could end up in a four-way tis.
 If such thing occurred, the Litterest political dog fight in con ference history would >get under way along about sundown on Nov. p when conference competition ends
 Here's how the deadlock could result:
 If California wins over UCLA here tomorrow, UCLA bounce back and whip Southern California Nov. g, and California, UCLA, use and Oregon otherwise suffer no further Ireversals. the windup would leave each team with one defeat and five victories in conference play.
 Or, for that matter, if Oregon State should knock over either Oregon or UCLA, the Beavers would be a factor
 Southern Cal, favored at this stage, has to get over Washing ton at Seattle tomorrow, Stanford the next week and UCLA after that.
 UCLA, after California, has Ore ] gon State, Washington and use; California, after UCLA, has Wash ington Montana and Stanford; Oregon takes on Idaho, Washing ton State. Stanford and oregon State and Oregon States re- maining schedule lists Stanford, UCLA, Washington State and Ore gon State
 Of the leaders, it is evident that Oregon, beaten in non-conference games by Texas and Nevada, has the easiest program ahead.
 And if the Big Three, use, UCLA and Gal, succeed in killing each other off, that's when the good brothers of the conference would get down to real politics.
 For the record it might be add ed that recent conference sessions have found Southern Cal and UC- LA standing together and outvot- ed, eight to two, on many issues.
 Officially, on-conference games, won or lost, are not supposed to figure in balloting. Whether they will in the event of a tie remains to be seen.

Total 208 in Year.;

Capitol police are faced with a
social puzzler on constituent Con-
gress relations.
The puzzler: Are Congress mem
bers and their surroundings so awe
inspiring that a visitor needs to
fortify himself with Dutch courage?
Here's what brings the question
up: A recent tabulation by the
police shows that of the 208 arrests
by the Capitol Hill force this year
119 were for drunkenness or for
drinking in Capitol corridors.
Apparently, a police oficial says
some voters haven't got the nerve
to come up to Congress unless they
say to themselves, II guess I'll get
drunk and go up and see my Con-
gresham"
