 SCHEDULED 10 DIE

WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.-R-- Two wartime Japanese leaders, condemned to hang as war crim- inals, asked the United States Su- preme Court today to save their lives.
 Petitions for court reviews of their sentences were filed on be- half of General Benji Dohihara, known as The Lawrence of Man churia, and Koki Hirota, former Premier. No appeals were filed on behalf of Hideki Tojo and four other Japanese leaders who also were sentenced to be executed.

RAM-JET PLANE
 REPORTED MADE
 SEVERAL FL.IGHT!

BALTIMORE, Nov. 30-iRl-The Glenn L. Martin Company an- nounces that pilotless ram-Jet plane it built for the Navy has made several flights of more than ten minutes.
 These are the longest flights ever made by a pilotless aircraft pow cred by the novel ram-jet engine. It has no moving parts except a fuel pump. Burning gasoline heats the air taken in at the nose Of the 7-foot contraption, which looks like a stovepipe, and the hot air creates a kick when it flows out the back end.
 The Martin people said there was nothing unusual about the speed made. It was within the speed of sound, about roo miles an hour,
 Martin built the plane, which is 9 feet long with 10-foot wing spread. It's called the Gordon ".
 Once launched, it was steered by remote control and tracked by ra- dar. Aboard were all kinds of gadgets which radioed back how fast it was going, the altitude, the drag, and how the engine was operating.

Pioneers Christmas fund, and he has never gwen up hope that one day this shrine would be unveiled.
 Everyone in Southeast Alaska and other parts of Alaska who has reach- ed unflinchingly into his or her pocket each year so the old boys might have a happier Christmas may know that TO matter how small or how large their contribution q small portion of this helped to make the erection Of this statue possible.
 Alonzo Victor Lewis's son, Max Lewis, is to have charge of design ing the base and his daughter Charmain Gross is to have the hon. or of unveiling the Alaska ProS- pector."
 MT. Lcwis's fame as an artist rests on such works as his l3-ton World War Memorial on the Cap ital grounds in Olympia. Six Years of effort and IS tons of clay went into it's creation. It is the largest similar group in the world and is acclaimed as masterpiece of SC u uIptural art. His celebrated "Doughboy' statue stands in front of the Civic Auditorium in Seattle; his Lincoln statues in Tacoma and Spokane; the Soldiers Memorial in Centralia his Ezra Meeker Pioneer Monument at Puyallup, and others too numerous to mention. A few years ago he was named Sculptor Laureate for the State of Washing ton by the State Legislature.
 His one wish that he live long enough to see the Alaska Prospec- tor unveiled was not fulfilled. He passed away in November, 1946. Now, however. his memory will live forever along with his permanent symbol Of the Pioneer who made Alaska the great country that it is today. The unveiling of this tribute to the Alaska Sourdough can well te looked forward to as a signal achievement and a gala day in the History of Alaska.

Conway of Sitka, and Charles Garter of Ju- neau. negotiated with Mrs. Zalmain Gross to purchase from her fath- CTS estate this statue in it's present form.

BY the Assoeioted Press

Soviet Ambassador Panyushkin
said today Russia is ready to re-
sumo negotiations to settle her
$11 ,20G000,000 wartime lend
lease account with the United
States.
The negotiations were broken off
last July. The envoy said he hopes
the discussions will be resumed in
the near future"
The ambassador made his an
nouncement in response to reporters
questions after brief conference at
the State Department with Under
secretary Lovett. He refused to say
what was discussed at the meeting.
Only Russia among the major
wartime allies has yet to reach
agreement on terms of partial re-
payment for the arms and supplies
contributed by the United States to
the common effort against Nazi
Germany.
Agreements with Britain, France
and other governments have been
on the basis of few cents on the
dollar of original cost The United
States has followed the policy of
writing off arms and supplies used
up in war, asking settlement only
for those remaining for peacetime
civilian use. \
Belated negotiations with Russia
opened last May and had made little
progress when they were broken off
by the return to Moscow of former
Ambassador Novikov. American
officials have indicated Russia S
