Pass the Pipe, Chief
Anchorage News)

President Trlman's recent statement Alaska wo,d indicate that somebody slipped him an old sneech out of Assistant Secretary of the Interior Warne's "Once every month" file Or someone shifted one of the Interior Departments bright young men into the Presidents speech writing section
 Whatever happened it all came out the same way.
 The Chief Executives strong partner memor- andnm to Congress was full of the same pap the Interior Department has been spouting.
 As matter of record it followed almost step by sten inc departments latest plan for the salvation of Alaska The Presidents special message asked for imnroved transportation, federal aid for health and housing the settlement of land claims and encourage ment for new settlers.
 We can't recall the exact paragraphic arrange rnent of Mir Warne's latest plan but the Presidents plan sounds very familiar paragraph by paragraph.
 We don't find fault with either the Presidents or the Interior Departments plan in toto it's just the tiresome repetition of tales We don't know whether they think we'll believe it is something new, or whether they hope it will sound more imminent coming from the President.
 We have believed for some tune that the Interior Department should put up shut up and it's heart ening to find neighbors in Seattle feel the same as we do The Chamber of Commerce suggested the department quit writing amendments to the plan for developing Alaska and get down to business If just one or two of the many points outlined by both the President and the Interior Department to be- come realities such as improved transportation and settlement of land claims, there would be further need to worry about industry and settlers They would follow naturally
 It's about time they quit blowing smoke rings in Washington The stuff they're smoking looks like to- hacco but it doesn't smell like tobacco.

Moscow radio makes us out as warmongers.
 While the State Department may he right that diplomatic talks with Russia are of doubtful value, there can be no doubt about the value of getting to know the Russian people and letting them know that we Americans are not warmongers.
 If the Russian people and the American people could pierce part of the iron curtain and ever get on speaking terms. there would be as little chance of war between us as between the USA. and Can ada. For governments don't declare war when their people are over whelmingly opposed to war.
 Believing, therefore, that the only sure way of preventing war with Russia is people-tc-peo rela- tiCnship, I have written letter to Joseph Stalin. It may not accom- plish anything It may not even get a reply. But you never &C., complish anything in this world without trying, so here is the let ted
The Daily Alaska empire., 1948-06-01
LIFT THE IRON CURTAIN

One reason for this tension is suspicion on the part of the peo- ples of both countries, suspicion generated by the fact that they do not know what is going on in- side the others country. The so- called iron curtain has given Amer jeans the impression that Russia hates and fears the United States. It has given Americans the im- pression that something mysterious is being developed inside your coun- try which may lay waste to our cities and farms.
 "So I would like to suggest to you, Premier Stalin, that you lift a corner of the iron curtain as the first step toward improving diplomatic relations between us which you have requested in your recent notes. I propose that we, the American people, again organ ize a Friendship Train, this time from the people of the United States to the children of Russia. For children should not be made to suffer the mistakes of their fathers. We will take this Friend ship Train full of food to the So- viet Union on a nonpolitical basis so as to prove to you and your people that the American people want friendship, not fear, that we are very weary of war.
 Our Friendship Train through Russia will not engage in politics. We will ask no special privileges, no political priorities. We only ask that we have the opportunity to deliver our gifts in person as guests of your people, to meet them face to face and tell them that these gifts are from the heart of the American people.
 T can assure you that your &C., ceptance of this friendship gesture would be carried out in all sim cerity by us and might be a milestone in avoiding the war
The Daily Alaska empire., 1948-06-01

and Austria. We would have liked also to have visited Eastern Europe and your country-had Americans been permitted to go there.
 We, the American people, know the tremendous sacrifices of the heroic Russian people. We know the devastation suffered by your towns and villages. And we, hav- ing been spared Hitler's bomb ings and blitzkriegs, feel a certain responsibility to alleviate suffer- ing and hunger wherever it exists.
 Therefore, this letter is written to you, Premier Stalin, as we com memorate Americas war dead who more than anything else would like to know that they had not died in vain, and that their sacri- flee had finally ushered in an era of peace. It is written to you at time when tension between our two governments is great, at time when your newspapers and ours are speaking of a war which neither of our peoples want

A WORTHY PROJECT

Everyone in the Gastineau Channel area VIII have an opportunity this week for an enjoyable eve ming and at the same time give practical support to worthy project.
 The evening of entertainment is an amateur show that will be given in the Douglas High School gym nasium Friday evening, June 4.
 The worthy project is completion of the Con- munity Beach at Douglas.
 The organization which is sponsoring the move ment is the Lions Club. Both Juneau and Douglas Cy Councils have contributed liberally, and Volun- teer Fire Departments have also been generous, but since everyone stands to benefit by the use of the Douglas beach, everyone will enjoy all the more Tor having had part in making the beach possible
 Tresdwell's beach has been closed to the public This makes it douby important to complete the Doug las project promptly It will provide an ideal place for picnics Cooking ovens, picnic tables swimming booths swings and teeters for the little tots are to be installed Thus it is that although funds have already been liberally applied to the improvement and many have had part in the work which have built roads and tlrn-outs more funds needed for the additional facilities enumerated
 These who are bearing the brunt of this arduous job deserve more than pat C., tse back more than praise more than the prcverbal Fine job keep it up"

ELkS TRAMpLED BY MOOSE CLUB,
 SUNDAYS GAME

Led by the almost flawless pitch ing of Lawrensen who struck out 14, walked but one and gave up only two hits, the Moose came back remarkably well from the l5 g Legion loss Friday, and dumped the third place Elks by nine to one score Sunday. Had it not been for the first inning when both Elks hits and the single run were scored, Lawrensen would have had a perfect nine inning shutout.
 Also assisting with the Moose victory in no small way were Phelps, Selmer and Simmons who batted 500, 666 and 500 in that order and accounted for five runs together. Selmer was especially improved from the Legion game when he went hitless four times at bat.

LETTER TO sTALIN
Washington, D. s

May 3l, 1Sz8
 My Dear Premier Stalin.
 'As you may have heard, large number of Americans, acting quite spontaneously, last year organized train of friendship to carry food and good will to the people of Eu- rope at the Christmas season.
 There was nothing governmental about this Friendship Train. We, the American people, were merely conscious of the fact that Europe was suffering and we wanted to do our part-and do it directly from people to people. So a Friendship Train started rolling from Califor- mia to New York with the hope of collecting perhaps 100 carloads of food. Tn the end, 700 boxcars of food were collected by all sorts of people. farmers, housewives, war veterans, school children, la Dor union members and business men-all of it collected in the spirit of the Sermon on the Mount.
 T recall, Premier Stalin, that at one time you studied for the priesthood, and doubtless remember from those days the messages of the Sermon on the Mount and the Brotherhood of Man. The Friend ship Train was conceived in that spirit.
 We carried our food not only to an old ally, France, but to our former enemies-Italy. Germany

 That's the letter I'm sending Stalin. I don't know that he will act On it, hut if he doesn't then we will know exactly where we stand with Russia. We will know and can tell Europe-that the shoe is on the other foot and that it is Russia, having rebuffed this act of friendship, which is the real warmonger.
 I also know that if Stalin should act favorably and if new Ameri- can Friendship Train were ever all lowed to visit Russia, part of the Russian people would realize that the American people are not war mcngers, but genuine believers in pecple-t people friendship. And between people who understand each other, it is not easy to make war.
