Atomic Arguments
The United States suggested that
the U.N. turn over its deadlocked
atomic energy problem to the Big
Five and Canada for direct negotia-
ton.
Warren Austin, the chief American
delegate, said:
Communist states desire to live in a
secret world OF their own behind
which, for all we know, they may arm
and prepare for war. We do not desire
to live in such a world.
That is the impaSse in which the
U.N. Atomic Energy Commission finds
itself This is an impasse which can
not be overcome by the Atomic En-
ergy Commission"
RusSia's Jacob A. Malik retorted
that mo fairy tales about alleged
closed doors and iron curtains can
show that the Soviet proposal is in
acceptable"
At the intercession of a group OF
small nations, the u. S. agreed to a
compromise in which both the U.N
commission and the Big Five plus
Canada will work on the atomic stale
mate.

FISH DIRECTOR ISSUES
STATEMENT ON OPENING

JUNEAU - Albert Nj. Day. Dir ector. Fish and Wildlife Service. issued the following statement on reOpening Of all fishing areas in Southeast Alaska
 ''The recent events in the reguI- ation of the salmon industry in AL aska have undoubtedly raised ques- tions regarding the resources for the unexpected closures and tire later re0pening of the season in all Southeastern on August 23 Basic ally. the chief seat of the trouble has been due to the unusually dry. sunahiny summer in the Territory. Fish have not acted normally be- cause the streams have been low and summer storms few and far between.
 Coupled with the dry summer. the pink salmon run Is at the low est point in many years The es- exponent of the 1946 run the basis of the present fishery, was very poor and chances for a good catch this year are not all bright Serious consideration was given to a complete closure this season, but after much deliberation and study. it was decided to grant a limited season originally prescribed to run from August g to September 8. Had the weatherman eoOperatcd, this season would probably have been satisfactory. Under existing circumstances, additional closures seemed to be the only alternative.
 During the recent hectic situa- tion I have been accused of having Little regard for the financial in veatment of the packers and for the welfare of the communities which depend upon the salmon in- dustry for their livelihood In fact. have heard some very uncOmpli- mentary statements about the Dlr- ectOF and the staff of the Fish and Wildlife Service.

 The tuna grounds from which four boatloads of the fish were brought are from 30 to 36 hours running time closer to Ketchikan than to Seattle, but weather and prices will be the factors determin- ing whether more tuna is landed al Ketchikan.
 Ray Glider. who is with the Point Adams Paking Company Of Newport, Oregon, arrived in Het- chikan Wednesday to confer with J. W. Mendenhan of the Ketchikan Cold Storage on freezing and hand ling charges, and after considering other cost factors is expected to an- nounce a price his company will pay for tuna landed at Ketchikan.
 Reports said the fish were caught north of the Queen Char lotte and Graham Islands. probab- ly because the Japanese current had shifted warm waters (about G4 degrees) farther north.
 The Danube II, with 22,000 pounds; the Sunup with 5000 and Chief Joseph with 16.O00 unloaded at Ketchikan Monday and the Gal weston unloaded 18,70O pounds on Tuesday. Harry Nelson, skipper of the Galveston, said some 200 bOats are at the tuna grounds II satis- factory prices are paid in Ketchi- kan he said. they and hundreds of other boats would sell in Ketehi- kan whenever weather made 1t ad- yisable.

CHAMBER PROTESTS AGAINST MAKING
 ADMIRALTY GAME RESERVI

The Juneau Chamber of Com merce has sent a protest to Wash ington against making Admiralty Island a game reserve The Cham Der regards the island as a future pulp mill site
 According to Senator Capper's bill if the island were turned over to the Park Service, carrying Of fire arms on the island would be prohibited. Whether sport fishing would be allowed in its many lakes and streams is not specified. How ever. the prohibition of carrying of firearms would make fishing a haz- ardous undertaking with brown bear prowling the island.

 Altogether not less than 200,- 900 square miles Gin Alaska are occupied by these bears. and since the sale of their hides was pro hibited by Federal law several years ago, they have gradually in creased in numbers.

United Negro and Allied Veterans
Demand Action From Party Meets

Addressing themselves to the
Republican. Democratic and New
Party Conventions, the United Ne
gro and Allied Veterans of Amer
lea this week issued the following
open letter to the three party
conventions. now in progress.
Open letter to the Republican,
Democratic and New Party Con-
yenti0ns:
What has Congress and the Ad-
ninistraton done this term to adj
vance democracy in the USA?
The Negro soldier wants to
know: Did you pass an anti-lynch-
ing bill? Did you abolish the poll
tax? Only about two percent of
the Negro population in the south
votes. Did you leglslate for a
Federal Civil Rights Bill? Is there
an FEPC? Did you work for peace
in our time? What's the record
please? This is an election year.
The Negro vet has right to
know. His record is proud one.
He fought and shed his blood for
Il freedom he has never known =
and in which he still has no
share. He met the test of patriot
ism and heroism. He counts among
his heroes; Dorie Miller, Leonard
Roy Harmon, Vernon Baker, Chas
Hall and many others. They serv-
ed over and above their line of
duty. They gave their lives in
hope for democracy The war was
won. Where is the victory?
Isaac Woodward blinded before
he changed his uniform to ciVvies,
John Jones castrated with blow
torches in Louisiana. Since W
Day more terror and lynehings
as the Jim Grow flies. Burning
crosses threatening humble homes,
the hooded figures ride again, the
few mixed regiments abolished in
the army. There are abuses of the
CT Bill of Rights throughout the
south Is this the fruit of our vic
tory? In the garden of power pol
tiles and fat Hobbies are we to be
ignored and cheated? We Negro
and white vets are dissatisfied
The job of safeguarding and ex-
tending civil liberties has been
neglected. We need a change for
the better. A complete change
now. We propose to struggle for
that change with the same courage
and devotion with which we
fought in World War II. We aim
