Fishing Company
 Shows Huge Profit

SAN FRANCISCO, -(P)-Re- porting a net income more than twice that of the previous year, officials of Pacific American Fish cries, Inc, Bellingham, said today they expect to operate its three Boring Sea canneries again this year.
 The report said a good run is expected at the Boring Sea sites of Naknek, Nushagak and Port Moller, Alaska. A normal run is expected along the Alaska Pen insula, in the Shumagin Islands and around Kodiak Island.
 Tn southeast Alaska, runs have been disappointing and drastic changes in fishing laws have fur ther clouded the situation, they said.
 Despite the highest operating costs in the company's history and comparatively small pack, the annual report showed net income for the year ended Feb. 29, of S1,844, ,34O or $4.89 a share of common stock. This compared with $759,241 or $1.01 a share the previous year.
 High selling price and sale of practically the entire pack were given credit for the added in come.

United States and all the other
f~ifty-seven countries that are
members of the United Ma
tons. That day has been set
aside to give ordinary men and
women and their families an
opportunity to share person
ally in the work of their Unit
ed Nations.
The General Assembly of
the United Nations on Octo-
Der 81, l947, adopted a resolu-
ton naming October "a, as
United Nations Day and in
viting all member govern
ments to cooperate in observ-
ing it. The resolution declares
that the day shall be devoted
to making known to the peo-
pies of the world the aims and
achievements of the United
Nations and to gaining their
support for the work of the
United Nations"
"We the peoples Of the Unit
ed Nations" the first of the
Charter-created the United
Nations SO we could learn to
live and work together in
peace with one another. Par
ticipation in the worldwide
observance of United Nations
Day is an excellent way to
contribute to this cooperative
spirit.
United Nations Day will be
q dav Of international stock
taking, to see what progress
, 1948-09-25

we have made, and of plan
ming, to see how we can ac-
complish what remains to be
done. The birthday of the
United Nations is an appropri-
ate occasion to measure the
growth of better international
relations and to look ahead to
new years of peace and free
dom based on mutual conf
dence and good will.
By itself, United Nations
Day will not guarantee peace
or solve problems Of how to
live and work together, but
through it the people of the
earth will be able better than
ever to know and use their
common will to achieve peace
by making their United Ma
tons stronger, sounder, more
effective.
Secretary of State George
G. Marshall has appointed a
National Citizens Committee
to promote observance of Unit
ed Nations Day in this coun-
try. The National Citizens
Committee is asking the peo-
pie of every state and every
community in the country to
organize prog ans for United
Nations Day.
This means that United Ma
tons Day will be your day. 1t
will be planned by and for you

peace organization leaders,
your mayor, what YOU AND
YOUR FAMILY can do to
make United Nations Day the
most important day in the
year. Better yet, give them
your ideas, and help work
them out.
The National Citizens Com
mittee is planning a national
program for United Nations
Day, and asking state and city
organizations to plan local pro-

Atlantic Defense Pact

Secretary of Defense ForrestalS current
trip to Europe is another link in chain
of events pointing toward the conclusion of
a defensive treaty between the free nations
on both sides of the Atlantic. Ever since
last summer, series of conferences and
conversations has been taking place to
this end, alike on high diplomatic and stra-
tegic levels. The indications are that these
interlocking negotiations will soon cul-
inmate in a draft treaty embracing the
European signatories of the Brussels treaty
on the one hand and the United States
and Canada on the other.
Such North Atlantic defense pact would
conform with the provision in the United
Nations Charter permitting regional agree
ments for mutual defense against aggres-
sion. A precedent already exists in the Rio
de Janeiro pact adhered to by the United
States and the Latin American Republics.
And hope for Senate approval of an At
lantic pact has been encouraged by the
passage of the Vandenberg resolution.
Such approval is rendered much more
probable by the recent elections, which
eliminated several Senators who might
have offered opposition Of an %solationist"
or at least restrictionist character.
Although treaty OF this nature would
Evening star., 1948-11-11

constitute for the United States O. diplo-
matte commitment as far-reaching as ii
would be unprecedented, the desirability
of such pact becomes increasingly obvi-
Gus. Once in effect, the forces of totali-
tartan aggression would be faced with the
indubitable fact that a five-nation group
in Western Europe-Britain, France and
the Low Countries-pl the United States
and Canada, stood pledged to instant and
wholehearted mutual defense against any
attack upon their sovereignty and integ-
rity. Furthermore, 1t is the undoubted
intention of the present negotators that
this pact should be enlarged by still other
nations with similar interests. That is
notably true of Fire, Portugal and at least
two of the Scandinavian nations-Den-
mark and Norway. From the American
point OF view. such adhesions would be
eminently desirable in order to make avail
able vital strategic bases in the Atlantic,
from Greenland to the Azores. The value
Of those bases was amply demonstrated in
the last war, when their use did much to
insure the safety of the Atlantic sea lanes
and the defeat of the Axis submarine
menace.
Admittedly, much has to be done before
an Atlantic defense pact becomes reality,
even in its present projected nuclear form.
Yet, on both sides of the ocean, the need
for such pact Is obvious while organized
opposition seems on the wane. Under these
circumstances, there Is reason to believe
the plan eventually will be put into effect.

Our accident rate in Washington and Vir-
ginia area is very low. And I'm sure the driv-
ers do their best for public safety. We don't get
breaks on the highway, we've got to steal every
inch we can get. I'd bet next weeks pay that
there isn't one in so people who will give q bus
the right OF way. How many drivers will stop
to let bus passengers cross the road to catch
waiting bus? Very few.
Right or wrong, q bus driver is never right
Passengers get on wrong bus and the driver
is blamed for not knowing which bus they
should get on The least little thing goes wrong
and some people bawl out the drivers, curse at
us, call the company and get us in hot water
again. Don't these people see the good things
we do sometimes? Can't the public greet us
with smile once in while?
When it is rainy or bad weather and special
1avors are asked of us, we do not give an inso-
lent answer. 1t is usually these people who
bawl us out or call the company who want
favors like stopping at q non-bus stop or
changing five or ten dollar bill.
Could make a suggestion? There are "Be
Kind to Animals Week." Dog Days." Labor
Week" Red Feather Season and numerous days
and weeks for different things Couldn't YOU
suggest Transit Carriers Week or Transpor-
tation Week, or, better yet, a Smile at Your

The Districts Loss

The resignation OF Senator Cain from
the Senate District Committee is q loss
to the people of this city.
In his freshman session Just past he
proved an interested and valuable COM
>mittee member. Although his service was
brief, 1t was concentrated in the field Of
city finance. He fought hard for an equi-
table income tax under which bona fide
residents of the District would contribute
to its support. He clearly sensed the
political serfdom" of voteless Washing
tonians and objected strongly to it.
When he saw the proposed new income
tax crippled on the floor of the House
last summer by the OHara amendment
exempting Federal salaries earned here,
he became convinced that Congress would
not pass fair income levy He called
for the sepeal Of the crippled tax and
enactment of sales tax.
When the sales tax fell, q victim to
the filibuster Of Senator Johnston, Demo-
crat, of South Carolina in the closing
hours of the session, Senator Cain had
the courage to block pay raises for Dis
trict employees which he knew could not
be met without the sales levy.
Senator Cain leaves the District Com
mittee because as member of the
minority party he can be on only two
committees. He also is a member of the
Committee on Banking and Currency and
the Committee on Public Works. On either
Of these he can be of more service to his
voting constituents. But his nonvoting
constituents here will still count him q
strong ally on the Senate floor when local

'Duy of Conscience

General Bradley, Chief of Staff of the
Army, once again has demonstrated that
he has the qualities not only of a great
soldier but of great statesman as we'll
Last Memorial Day he made speech
at Longmeadow, Massachusetts,, that will
be long remembered for its moving SIM
plicity, its forceful logic and its obvious
sincerity. Speaking at the grave of a
Medal of Honor infantryman, General
Bradley pointed out that the living, in
honoring the dead, must do so in utmost
humility; humility for our failure to win
the peace after World War I.
At Boston yesterday General Bradley
pursued this theme even further-and
every American who is worried about
the portents of the present. Armistice
Day, he said, should be "our day of
conscience" For it is no less symbol OF
defeat than 1t Is q reminder of victory.
Neither remorse nor logic" he declared,
"can hide the fact that our armistice ended
in failure. Not until the armistice myth
exploded in the blast of a Stuka bomb did
we learn that the winning of wars does not
in itself make peace. And not until Pearl
Harbor did we learn that noninvolvement
in peace means certain involvement in
war"
General Bradley warns that the world
cannot risk another failure without "Sui-
cidal" consequences. We have survived a
second world war, but neither General
Bradley nor any other realist believes that
we-or the world-could survive third in
an era of atomic and archaeological
weapons. If this postwar period is to be
just another armistice between wars, the
outlook for all of us is terrible indeed.
But the Chief Of STAFF, veteran of two
World Wars, is not without hope-nor does
he think Americans generally should allow
their hopes to falter. It is, of course, dis
illusioning to be still cropping for peace
three years after the cessation of hostilities,
to have our earnest efforts for peace re-
jected and ridiculed by a one-time ally,
apparently bent on following the path of
other aggressors. But to waver now in
our determination to win the peace would
be to play into the hands of those who
would conspire against us and against our
high ideals

situation when he says that the hour calls
for renewed faith and renewed determine
tion-determination not only to exhaust
every avenue Of discussion but, withal. to
make ready for any eventuality should dis
cussions fail. We cannot afford to repeat
the mistakes Of yesterday and say that
what happens to the rest of the world is
none of our business. The threat Of new
weapons has made 1t our business. That
is why we are forced to rearm when we
should be building for peace. Yet, as Gen.
eral Bradley so well put it at Boston, the
American people can face the world and
say with all sincerity: This Government
will not assail you. You can have no con-
fiict without being yourselves the aggres-
sor." Knowing that to be true, we can
arm with clear conscience while pressing
for peaceful settlements at the council
table. II we do these things boldly and
well, there should be no cause for future
regret.

Good Work, MoryIond!

Maryland law enforcement authorities
well deserve the commendation which they
have received from Governor Lane for
their apparent solution of the brutal mur-
ders of young Glen Burnie couple nearly
two months ago. The filing of murder
charges against a war veteran who lived
near the scene of the crime will relieve
the tension and fears which have gripped
the community since the finding of the
bullet-torn bodies of John Mahlan and
Mary Kline.
The break" in the case came as the
result of relentless hard work by cooper
ating group Of county, State and Baltimore
Investigators. Scores of persons were ques-
toned during the long investigation and
many dead ends were encountered But
persistence finally paid off. The best clue
was report by Federal Bureau of Investi-
CATION ballistic experts that a foreign
make pistol of unusual caliber had fired
the fatal shots. It was learned that one
suspect had owned such gun. dicta-
phone was placed in his cell and certain
statements the prisoner made to a fell
low prisoner led officers to search the
mans house. The pistol was found hidden
behind pile of canned goods. FBI lab
oratory tests proved conclusively that this
was the gun which the slayer used.
Thus, patient questioning was combined
with careful examination of the scene and
up-to-date scientific methods of detection
to produce results. And there was,
throughout, coordination of talents and
facilities that makes for effective law en-
forcement. The Glen Burnie case offers a
good example Of police work at its best.

Cooperative Apartments

10 the BQltof OF Inc Star:
Shakespeare tells us that "time's glory"
among other things "is to ruinate proud build
ings with the hours and smear with dust the
glittering. golden towers" Now there are many
ancient buildings in this city which are far
from proud" and which are being converted
into "co-operatives." While the owners in cer-
tain instances are making major repairs (the
first in many years., the disintegration never
theless continues. AS q result, those who buy
individual apartments on the cooperative
basis must expect mounting costs as the years
roll along. The owners of these so-called per
petual" leases must not only pay huge sums
for the privilege ca Of residing in these an
cient flats, but their share of maintenance
They are faced with the possibility Of higher
taxes, insurance, increased wages and higher
costs in connection with the D. c. egress law
Unthinking people often rush into these CO.
operative schemes without proper investigation
but wise men fear to follow. The risks are too
great. T.. K. GOLDSBOROUGH.

Thus keeping faith at last Nth all oho

Letters to The Star
Mrs. Roosevelt and the Dixiecrats

Mrs. Roosevelt and the DlxlecratS
70 the Editor Of The star:
Strange mouthings have come from one VINO
has boasted of her exponency Of the four free
doms and Of tolerance-and from one for whom
these same four freedoms have been most
elastic-Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt
Now that certain elements in the South
Oixiecrats) have exercised their God-given
American right Of differing with some Of the
principles of the Democratic Party, Mrs.
Roosevelt suddenly wakes very intolerant and,
amid shouts OF traitor" would have these dis
senters ousted permanently from the Demo-
cratic ranks, even suggesting that perhaps the
Republican Party might accept few of the
more conservative members. Which, indeed,
might prove the opening wedge for the Republi-
can Party to make more definite inroads into
the Southern States.
Mrs. Roosevelt has been allowed free reign
for SO long time (some feel perhaps too long,
to air her theories (good, bad and in between)
it now appears she will brook no differences of
opinion. For her all advantages and protection
Of the Constitution-for others, limitations re-
strictions.
Instead Of her usual adult and tolerant ac-

definitely has the "infantile" approach with

Something Fine

At one stage of his campaign Governor
Warren suggested that somebody ought to
talk about what is right with America.
He did not develop his own theme, and the
thought good one-was soon buried
under an avalanche of political speeches
about the things that are wrong with
America.
There are plenty of things wrong with
America, and we hear a great deal about
them. Perhaps we hear too much. At any
rate, there are many, many things that are
right with America, and there is reason to
believe that we do not hear enough about
them. The explanation may lie in the fact
that most Americans, meaning native
Americans, have lived too close to the good
things Of our way of life; perhaps we have
come by them too easily to realize how good
and how numerous they really are.
This has not been true of Mr.. and Mrs.
Samuel Levin, Russian-born Jews, now
residing in Brooklyn. They may or may
not know about the wrong things: possibly
they do not believe all that they hear
about them. But they do know about the
good things.
Their son was Sergt. Meyer Levin, q bonn
bardier, who was killed in Capt Colin
Kelly's attack on the japanese battleship
Haruna. On Monday of this week the
parents presented portrait of their son
to Secretary OF Air Symington, and Mr..
Levin made a little speech
LAS foreign-born Americans" he said,
eve are proud to say that we gave some
thing fine to our country in our son. We
have travelled all over the world No other
country could compare with the ideals of
liberty and freedom that are here We
Jews were prosecuted in Czarist Russia
we had no rights. But here it was some
thing wonderful; here it was equality to
every one who came to the United States"
Hundreds of thousands of Americans who
have given their sons for the United States
will understand what Mr.. Levin was trying
to say. But there will be hundreds of
thousands, maybe millions, who will not
They ought to think about it. When they
mutter and complain because we are open
ing our gates to few Of the displaced
people Of the world, they ought to remem-
Der the Levins. When they grippe and
grumble about what the country owes
