/ said that eff Bizonia did not get
what it wanted, the U. S. Congress
could not be expected to continue
appropriating funds for European
recovery" New York Times, Sept.
Il, 1948).
The content of the compromise"
between Clay and Hoffman, which
Europeans had no choice but to ap-
nrove, was that Germany will get a
direct Marshall plan dollar grant of
$414 million for 194S-49, apart from
other forms of aid. In return, she
must ship $40 million worth of goods
to the remaining Marshall plan ma
lions. This is a profit of $404 million
for west Germany, a direct subsidy
to reconstruction totally unmortgaged
by any obligation on the part of Ger
many to repair the damage she did
in World War H. Who is getting
preference? The Germans or their
victims?
Even NJ. Y. Times Was Shocked
Even the New York Times, a great
MdTSudIl plan uSIOnu6I, was So
shocked by these procedures that it
asked on September II: "Will the
U. s., which on the one hand lectures
to Europeans on cooperation, be
continual obstruction to cooperation
through it's German administration
Is the European Recovery Program or
the special problem of western Ger
many the primary consideration of
American policy -.
In other words, both the hapless
Marshall plan countries of Europe and
observant conservative Americans
have come to the conclusion that the
plan has turned into something quite
different from the product originally
advertised.
Instead of aid to Europe as
whole, it makes Europe into base
for rebuilt Germany. Instead of
being non-poiticaI, it is plainly
strategic. Instead of being help to
Europeans to help themselves, it is
form of dictation.

WORK INJURIES SHOW
A DECLINE

Washington-Wor injuries in man
ufacturing industries declined during
the second quarter of 1913, according
to reports received by the US. bu-
reau of labor statistics.
The estimate of 110,600 injuries
during the second quarter, disabling
employees in manufacturing estab-
lishments for one or more days, repre-
sents a decrease of 1900 from the cor
responding figures TO rthe first quar-
ter. 1t is 12,400 below the estimate for
the second quarter of 1947
About 400 of these injuries resulted
in fatalities, and 5000 other workers
suffered permanent physical impair
ments
Working time lost is estimated as
about 2,2120O0 man-days. At current
wage levels this represents an esti-
mated loss of over $22 million which
industry and the injured workers
must assume.

Russia would have to call off her
gangster methods.
Which Shall 1t Be?
This does not mean that we would
pay tribute as a cowardly nation, to
Europe but it would be licking those
dictators by giving up our luxuries
for awhile in order to raise the stand
ard-of-living abroad. We, however,
cannot accomplish such without max
ing real sacrifices. 1t might tempo
arrily require farmers to forego prof
it's, investors to forego dividends and
all of us to work 10 hours day for
reasonable wages. The question is
whether we will do this voluntarily
by the use of commodities, or will we
still insist on fighting. Russia with
human lives?
In either case it would mean real
sacrifice and perhaps a surface set
back for America; as it should be
done without increasing the federal
or other debts. Before losing my
grandson, | was all for fighting now
and cleaning Russia up" but today
l think there may be better way.
Besides, do wars ever settle great
questions when ideologies are in

countries which is not
country at all-the combined
U.S.-British occupation zone of
Germany known by the zoolog-
ical-sounding name of Bizonia.
Bizonia or in other words western
Germany, has both no voice in the
OEEC and the strongest voice of all.
This sounds like nonsense but is ac-
tually fact Since Germany is still
an enemy nation, no peace treaty hav-
ing been signed, no German votes in
the OEEC deliberations. Speaking
for Bizonia are American officers rep
resenting Gen. Lucious d. Clay who
commands the U. S. occupation, the
same man who now seems to have it
in his power to decide for peace or
war at Berlin. Thus it comes about
that west German claims are made
with authority that brooks little op-
position.
The same gmmick injects a U.
S. representative directly into inter-
European planning for the internal
use of Marshall plan funds, de-
spite Secretary of State MarshaiPs
repeated assurances that the west
Europeans would be allowed to
work out there things for them
selves. Moreover, the American
representative in these supposedly
purely civilian discussions does not
speak for U. S. civil government.
He peaks primarily for the U. S.
armed forces and Brass Hat STRAIT
egy for World War Ill.
What worries former U. S. allies
ment, apart from the infringement of
former promises, is that-within Eur
Ope-these officers plump for rebuild
ing Germany. The Marshall plan,
which was supposed to help nations
invaded by Nazi Germany get back
on their feet now assumes quite a
different shape. Eastern neighbors
whom Germany devastated, such as
Poland and the
USSR, of course get no aid at ALL
And the Germans are getting priority
over their western victims
This principle was established by
! decision to which all 16 non-German
Marshall plan countries, under double
U. S. pressure, were finally
creed to agree to on September Il.

| have had several good grand-chil-
dren; but only two have been boys
One Of these is artistic and has no
interest in business; he was in the
service and returned from Europe
safely The other, Michael, had been
much interested in business, one with
whom | had discussed my affairs al
though only IS years old. He had
been working at a Sunapee, N. H.
hotel all summer; last week he took
a speed-boat party out on Lake Sun
apee.
Somehow one of the girls fell over
board. Michael stopped the boat and
dove in after her, knowing she could
not swim. He succeeded in dragging
her to the side of the boat so that the
others could pull her in. This they
did but Michael was exhausted and
sank to the bottom. Divers finally
recovered his body. 1t was splendid
way to go and | am much prouder of
him than if he had lived and made a
million dollars.
Have You Really Suffered?
But why do | tell my personal trou-
bles to you readers? There are two
reasons: First, because it has brought
trouble home to me and makes me
appreciate human values. 1t is the |
first blow | have had since my sister
was drowned here at Gloucester many
years ago. lost no near kin either
in World War | or H. War fatalities |
were only cold statistics to me. This !
is the first time | have appreciated |
what these $4,000 families really
suffered and what one thousand
other families are experiencing every
day of every year.
During my career, | have studied
only profits, wages, bushels and tons.
Friends, / fear there are too many
other American businessmen who are I
like me-forgetting the human values.
This may explain why we do not un-
derstand the millions of wage work
ers whose only assets are their boys II
and. girls Today am trying to think
of them and also of the millions of
starving families in Europe who love :,
their children just as much as | loved
Michael
We Can Prevent World War III
MY second reason for mentioning !
Michael is to apologize for my habit
Of discussing World War III as if the =.
money cost and property damage are
Of primary consideration. Heretofore, d
I have figured which is the cheaper .
in dollars-to help out Europe now or J.
10 fight now. | have not considered d
The millions of good boys who would
be killed in another war. Again l a
fear there are too many other bust
perhaps labor leaders
.oo-who are as ruthless as | have
leen in thinking too much of the .
dollars involved and not enough of Il
he human lives. Anyhow, l am a
hanged man today. .
Just one more thought: Of course,
f World War III comes, we will be u
old that it is a fight for democracy y
.gainst dictatorship" But since los
ng Michael, | have been wondering d
f there is not a more underlying
eason for today's world trouble. May
lot property, stocks, profits and u
vaues be one reason for the struggle W
etween America and Europe? If we

WASHINGTON. Feb. 3.-lR- Alaska salmon waste, now throw away problem, may be a practicaI source for production of sex hor- mones, insulin and other useful medicinal compounds.
 A Commerce Department re- search report says the Territory has about 100,0O0,0O0 pounds each year of such waste-heads, tails fins and viscera-which is hauled out to sea and dumped at consid- erable expense.
 The report is the first on a study sponsored jointly by the Commerce Department and the Alaska Fisheries Experimental Con- mission at Ketchikan to develop means of turning the waste to useful purposes.

CECIL CASLER TELLS OF MART WEEK AND
 FUTURE ACTIVITIES

Cecil Casler returned last Friday from Buyers Week in Seattle and reports a most successful trip. He states he met merchants from every major town in Alaska, several from remote points all in Seattle for the purpose of obtaining merchandise for the seasonal trade. Casler al- so statsd that the quality and sell ections were much better than they have been in several years and the price trend is up in general.
 The primary purpose of this trip was to make plans for an all-Al- askan buying week for the future and it was so successful this year that the assurance of bigger and better Mart Week for 1949 is already planned.
 Casler also rcnIal ked that record ings of the interviews were made presumably for future broadcasts in Alaska.
 Dewey Metzdorf, President of the New Washington Hotel in Seattle and also Vice-President of the Western Hotels Inc, is formerly of Anchorage, and he said that any Alaskan would have priority in re- servations at any of their hotels. This was of great service to Alaskan buyers at the Mart Week in Seattle.

ROTARY CLUB SEES PICTURE ON SILVER
 PLATING AT MEET

The Rotary Club members were entertained at their luncheon today with the film on silver plating through the centuries. This film is very instructive, educational and in- teresting and was loaned by Dr. Rob- ert Simpson and shown by Eckley Guerin.
 The business meeting was short because of the length of the film and only one letter was read to the effect that the Rotary Club of Ju- neau has been recognized for their contribution to the International Ro- tary Foundation of Paul Harris which consists of the rehabilitation of Rotary Cluhs all over war torn Europe and the Far East, also the exchange of students of the Rotary Clubs.
 All Rotary numbers who pos sibly can are asked to participate in the breakfast that will be held for the Skagway Basketball team which arrives late this evening for a three day tournament with the To- cal high school.
 A report was given by Rand on the Rotary booth at the Frolic held last week and Dr. c. Earl Albrecht offered his excuse why he was un- able to attsnd the booth the second night, which was high light of the meeting.
 The Club voted to have as theii guests at the next meeting at the Baranof Tuesday, February 10, the Cub Scout Troop sponsored by the Rotarians and the Den Fathers and Mothers of each troop member.
 It was announced that the Rotary Club will hold St. Valentines dance on Fecruary IA at the Country Club and all members are invited

OPERATION DIApER' IIS NOW UNDERWAY,
 ALASKA AND ORIENT

SEATTLE, Feb. 3.-R-Airlines purchasing agents in Seattle plunged bravely into "opeation diaper" as they prepared for heavy flights of Army dependents-women, children and babies-to Japan and Alaska.
 Northwest Airlines will take off to- day from the Seattle-Tacoma Air port with the first of an estimated 2000 dependents who will be trans ported to Japan during the next three months.
 On Wednesday Alaska Airlines will begin similar flights to Alaska and continue them through March.
 A heavy backlog of dependents awaiting transportation to the Or tent and Alaska caused the Army to switch from surface to air travel. The backlog was created, Army of ticials said, when several transports were laid up for repairs and conver- sion.
 It's the number of babies who must be cared for that has furrowed the hrows of airlines officials.
 Said " R. Ostrander of Alaska Airlines:
 Have yau ever tried to buy dia- pers for an unknown quantity of in- fants? Have you ever tried to de- wise, in one day, a method of heat ing bottles in the air? Of mixing babies formulas?

 The bill may stay in the cooler for two months or more, and when it does come up for a Senate vote, it probably will call for less than the s6,50o, 100000 cut overwhelmingly ap- proved by the House.
 The COP measure reelected through the House yesterday by a 297 to l20 count. That is 19 votes more than the two- thirds majority needed to override a veto.
 Action by the full Senate prob ably will be delayed until after a vote on the Marshall Plan for Europ- can recovery. This may put off a final tax showdown until April

KODIAK RAMpUS IS GIVEN NEW VERSION

SEATTLE, Feb. 3.--lR-A rum pus raised by Kodiak, Alaska, busi- nessmen and civic officials over competition offered by government operated stores brought sharp re- tort here yesterday
 Glenn A. Diehl, district mechani- cal engineer for the Navy Ordnance Bureau at Kodiak, denied that the Navy commissary and theatre cut heavily into the merchants busi- ness there.
 Kodiak and the Navy town" are several miles apart and connected enly by a rough dirt road that is hazardous to travel most of the year, Diehl said. The Navy store has only meager supplies and the theatre is a cheap wood building in which old pictures are shown, he explained
 The whole controversy involves pitifully small number of peo- pie and I have the feeling that the merchants of Kodiak are grab ping at straws."
 Kodiak business leaders recently objected strenuously to opening of the Navy commissary to con- struetion workers. The complaint was carried in person by the Ko- diak mayor to Washington, D. c.
 The Navy replied that it's action was necessary to keep workers there.

WHEELER TO DIRECT
 .AFL POLITICAL LEAG.

MIAMI, Fla, Feb. 3.-Rt-AFL President William Green today an- nounced the selection of Burton K. Wheeler, former Democratic Sen- ator from Montana, as Director of AFL's new political league in the coming elections.
 The post will pay S10,0o0, Green said. Wheeler will appear before the 30-member Administrative Commit tee of the newly-formed league here tomorrow. The Committee still must approve the selection of the Execu- tive Council, but Green indicated that would be formality.
 The AFL head said the wartime isolationist views of ex-Senator Wheeler would not interfere with the political objectives of the La Dor Organization, because they were primarily to bring about repeal of the Taft Hartley. Act.
