RE YOUR OPENING OF THE DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN IN
 THE FIRST DIVISION

Your radio address last evening, which opened the campaign for the Democratic Party in Alaska, is talk en by Republicans to declare the issues which must be decided by the vote of the people on October 12th.
 We must now assume that you speak for your Party, your First Division Chairman MT. Stump Democratic .appointees--both Fed eral and Territorial, and the other Democratic candidates in addition to appointee Metcalf, who, you say, has spent si40,000 in the First Di- vision for road construction, public and private.
 You say that now in l94s, after l6 years of Democratic domination and after 18 years of your own service" in the Legislature, that we are right back where we were in 1882. IS THAT PROGRESS?

BANQUET CLOSES ABT CONvENTI0N;;
 TALKS ARE GIVEN

With a feeling that great pro- gress has been achieved in furth- ering international goodwill between the people of Southeast Alaska and Central British Columbia, the members of the Associated Boards of Trade of Central British Col umbia and members of the Affil- lated Chambers of Commerce of Southeast Alaska concluded their two day session by banquet last evening in the Gold Room of the Baranof Hotel The City of Ju- neau was host for the occasion and over 140 people were in attend ance.
 Joseph A. Mclean, President of the Juneau Chamber presided at the banquet and then turned the proceedings over to Dr. l.. M Greene. retiring President of the ABT, who acted as chairman.
 Dr. Greene called upon Gov Err nest Gruening and the latter laud- ed the efforts of the Canadian and Alaska groups of meeting together to discuss their very similar prob- lems. He stated that Alaska had hitherto thought that she was in a unique situation of being a colonial outpost far removed from the national seat of government and it was heartening to Alaskans to know that the people of Cen tral British Columbia felt far re- moved from Ottawa and that al times received the same disinter- ested treatment from the Dominion government.
 H. w. Brighton, Canadian Trade Commissioner at Vancouver stated that such cooperation and under standing as had been indicated here would bring results. He de plored the fact that similar good will could not be exemplified ir the field of international affair! on a larger sphere.
 E. T. Applewhaite, secretary O the Prince Rupert Chamber O Commerce; Brigadier Alan B. Con nelly, Canadian Army Commandan of the Alaskan Highway, and J. T Gawthrop, Director Regional De velcpn.ent Division, Provincial De partment of Trade and Industr. were among the other speakers ol the program.

 You say that the Communists want to defeat you, but you neg lected to say that you were elected with the support you now condemn and that you have recently made craven overtures pleading for that same support.
 You say that you have been sus- pected of being emotionally un- stable. Is it not true that you re- signed during the last Legislature and only the charitable refusal by the Governor saved you from the folly of your own behavior?
 Is it not true that his salvation granted by Governor Gruening now compels you to condone the s140,000 spent by appointee Metcalf?
 Is it not true that you resigned from the Senate because you were not elected the President of that body and that you condemned both Seniors Rivers and Peratrovich for their perfidy in voting against you and electing Andrew Nerland to preside over a Democratic majority?
 What have you done for Juneau and the northern part of the First Division during your 18 years .service'? What, except tender your resignation? Where is Ju- aeaus share of the $140,000 spent by appointee Metcalf-an expendi- ture of gas-tax money tnat you now so eagerly applaud?

STRIKERS OUT AT
 B0EING PLANT;
 ENGINEERS WORK

SEATTLE, April 23.-tR-Engin- eering activity resumed at the strike closed Boeing Aircraft plant here today as the walkout of nearly l5,- 900 union workers went into its sec ond day.
 Only a handful of pickets patrolled the gates of the big plant and adja- cent air field as an estimated 5000 or more engineers, office workers and supervisors entered their offices.
 The company estimated only 500 were on duty yesterday after they had been instructed to stay home unless called individually.
 But the calls were multiplied to- day to step up office and engineer ing activity to near normal pace.
 There were no indications, how ever, of any settlement soon of the dispute which brought the walkout shortly after midnight yesterday. The points of deadlock were a de- mand of the Aeronautical Mechanics Union Qnd) for a 30-cent hourly pay increase, disagreement over ar filtration procedure proposals and union insistence on retention of seniority provisions.

SHIFT OF TACTICS BY COMMUNISTS
 NOW POSSIBILITY
(By The Associated Press)


 Washington officials are studying the possibility that Europe's Con- munists may be compelled to shift tactics because of their setback in the Italian elections. The officials speculated that Russia may resdme postwar efforts for alliances with the non-C Communist left wing. or even may seek new meeting be- tween President Truman and Prime Minister Stalin.
 Communism's methods were con demned last. night by unanimous vote of the 21 nations at the Pan American conference in Bogota. Col ombia. The resolution urged eacn western hemisphere nation to adopt measures to combat Communism and other forms of totalitarianisn.
 Italian authorities, enforcing the post-election peace, arrested Com munists in several areas last night and confiscated weapons.
 In Moscow, newspapers published dispatches from abroad accusing the United States and Britain of trying to enlist. Germans for military pur- poses and using former German army generals as consultants.

FOUR 0UIzzED IN MYSTERY SHOOTING
 OF WALTER REUTHER

DETROIT, April 23-tR-Officers whisked a mystery witness into po- lice headquarters today as they pressed their manhunt for the gum man who tried. to kill Walter P Reuther.
 Prosecutor James N. McNally said the witness, not identified, was the me who first gave information to police about Nelson Davis, an admit ed Communist, now in custody for questioning.
 McNally said the witness told po- lice he heard Davis say he knew who shot the 40-year-old President of .he CIO United Auto Workers.
 Davis, 52, a negro foundry worker at the Ford Motor Co.,, denied that ae ever made such a remark. Davis was said by McNally to have signed a formal statement admitting that he was Communist.
 McNally emphasized, however, that no charge has been placed against Davis. There is conclusive evidence that he was on the job when Reu- ther was attacked. McNally added.
 Davis was taken to police head quarters yesterday along with three other JAW members.

Airporis, Anchorage. Fairbanks Are Given Another Good Boost

WASHINGTON, April 23.-iRl- A Senate Commerce subcommittee has unanimously endorsed legislation to authorize construction of com mercial airports at Anchorage and Fairbanks, Alaska, at total cost of $13,000. .000.
 The subcommittee action was an- nounced by Chairman Capehart (R-Ind). The bill must still be approved by the full committee before it can go to the Senate floor.
 Capehart said the subcommittee also unanimously approved an In ternational Aviation Facilities bill introduced by Senator Brewster (R-Me). It would place on a per- manent basis the air traffic and weather control stations now oper- ated by the U. s. outside the con- tinental limits.
 The Indiana Senator said in a statement that approval of the two projects followed full study of the importance of both to na- ional defense.
 Commercial aircraft now use Army facilities at both Alaskan communities. The contemplated airport at Anchorage would cost $8,000,000 and the Fairbanks air port $5,000,000. The funds will have to be appropriated in separate legislation.
 The House has approved the An chorage project, but is still con sidering the Fairbanks construc- ton.
