 JUNEAU0N (G OFFICE
Capital City Not Ruled 0ui for District Headquart-
 CTS Location

Juneau is still under considera- ton as the possible location of proposed District Headquarters for the U s. Coast Guard in Alaska That was the impression gained to- day from Captain Alfred c. Rich mond, Chief of Coast Guard Plan- ming and Control.
 Captain Richmond returned here from the Westward last evening with Rear Admiral Joseph Stika, Com mandant of the 18th Coast Guard District at Seattle, and members ot a Coast Guard Investigating com rnittee from Washington, DC. who have been touring Alaska to deter mine the possibility of re-establish- ing the l7th Coast Guard District in the Territory
 Captain Richmond is the man who has more to say than any other person about Coast Guard plans and operations. While he has not de- finitely formed an opinion on the re-establishment of the Alaska Dis |trict, he is favorably impressed by the advantages as compared with the disadvantages.
 5 duncan. Is Central ..s~
 He was also seriously impressed by certain points favoring Juneau as the location of the proposed head quarters. He agrees that it's central location and closeness to the Ter ritorial Capital, with all of it's gov ernment offices, carries considerable weight toward influencing putting the headquarters here. Another strong argument is the promise by Col. T. J. Fully Commanding Officer of the Alaska Communications Sys- tenn, that a direct teletype line could be connected between proposed Ju- neau headquarters and the Coast Guards already existing radio com munication facilities at Ketchikan.
 Needs Office Space
 So far, sufficient office space has not yet been located here which could accommodate the headquar ters staff, he declared, and this fac- tor, alone, may be the determining element as to a choice between cit- ies. The Juneau Chamter of Com merce will be asked to make a further study of possible office space in order to overcome this obstacle.
 Also under consideration are Ketchikan, Kodiak and Anchorage with the First City probably in the lead. If the change is to be made. it will more than likely take place next Jan. 1. said Richmond. The headquarters would employ about 50 or 50 men. Nothing else but off, ces would be affected by the change The Coast Guard does not contem- plate moving any of it's present base facilities.
 The visitors were scheduled to leave here this afternoon. The group includes Captain Clarence H. Peter son and Lieutenant Commander Roderick Y. Edwards. members of the committee, and H. E. Merrick Staff Assistant to the Senate Appropria- tions Committee, and w. E. John son, Treasury Department Budget Officer. Captain N. s. HauRen. Com mander of the Alaska Section of the Coast Guard, and Commander Leon H. Morine, Coast Guard Morale Off cer, also made the trip here.

 BLOCKED
Western Powers Prevent Soviet Efforts 10 Butt in
 on Berlin Govt.
tBy The Associated Press)

The Western Allies countermand- ed today two Russian efforts tb muscle in and destroy the elected City government of blockaded Ber- lin.
 The Commandants of the U. s., Britain and France advised Mayor Louise Schroeder the Russians had no right to order her to discharge Johannes Stumm. the new police chief. She promptly told the Rus sians that inter-allied laws forbade her to follow their directive. The Western Powers also told the Mayor the Soviet Conriandant has no authority to install one Paul Letsch to the important post of deputy head of the City Food De- partment. Such actions require un- animous assent of the Allied Kom- mandatura, from which the Rus sians have walked out.
 The Western Powers hope to learn soon through their Ambass- adors to Moscow whether Russia really wants to negotiate an ac- ceptable settlement of German is- sues. Chances are they will discov- er this in approaching talks with Foreign Minister Molotov. If there appears to be a chance of a settle ment. the Four Power Foreign Ministers Council might meet be- fore the late September meeting of the United Nations General As- sembly in Paris.
 tBERLIN-The US. Ambassador to Moscow, Walter Bedell Smith, stopped over a day in Berlin en- route to Russia from London talks. He is likely to exchange views with Gen. Lucius D. Clay, U. s. Milf tary Governor in Germany.

body a free lift" up the 500 or 60o
foot runway. The tow rope will be
operated by a gasoline engine.
The Ski Club, according to Paul
Tarver, vice president, has long
wanted a run here and had no
trouble convincing the parks office
that there would be plenty Of users.
Mr.. Thompson said lights will be
installed along the slope for night
skiing.
"Well be ready for any early snow
and all We hope is that it will be
deep and dry enough to last a week
or more" he said.
The Ski Club is happy over the
prospect of good skiing here, Mr..
Tarver said. There is occasional

This Changing World
Truman Set to Toss Ball Back at Stain
In June II Speech on Foreign Affairs

Mr.. Molotov written text Of his
statement when he had instruc-
tions from washington not to do so.
Subsequent maneuvers in Henry A.
Wallace's open letter to Mr.. Stain
and the latter's reply further mud
died the international situation.
Although it was obvious to all OBJ
servers who are trained in interna-
tional affairs that the Russians had
maneuvered us into difficult spot,
the Soviet trick is believed to have
made an impression on the Ameri-
can people as well as on Western
Europeans. The fear of a third
world war is far greater In coun-
tries ruled by constitutional re-
gimes than in the police states.
Since the Soviet propaganda cam
paign began the Chief Executive
has made no positive statements
about our attitude, except in brief
remarks at his press conferences.
The gist of these remarks has been
that the door is open now-as it
has always been-for the Russians
to come and discuss our problems
in Washington.
Approved by People.
This attitude, which has been
Fundamentally approved by the
rank and file Of American people,
may not be satisfactory at this time,
according to some presidential ad-
visers who keep a keen watch on
public opinion.
They feel that the American
public by and large is under the
impression that the administration
has banged the door in the faces
of Mr.. Stain and Mr.. Molotov.
Hence, they consider it necessary
for Mr.. Truman to restate again
the fundamentals of American for
eign policy and the basis on which
we would discuss with the Soviet
the problems which
have brought us to the brink OF
war.
In some executive and legisla-
tive quarters, where there has been
q good deal of dissatisfaction with
our recent diplomatic blunders, it
is hoped that too many cooks will
not spoil the broth. 1t is hoped
that the men who provide the es-
sential facts and views for the Chief
Executives address June IL will
