The final night of the 1947 legislature arrived, the house had passed the appropriations meas ure, it had gone to the senate, where that so-called conservative body had actually increased some of the amounts. Then the bill came back to the house for final approval. Mrs. Engstrom, for one, could see that something was wrong The final appropria- tions bill called for expenditures of $8,476, ,309.94. That evening when the house was considering it's final passage, Mrs. Engstrom saw Joe Green, democrat, senate finance chairman sitting in the rear of the room. She asked MT. Green, Although I do not claim to be a financial genius, it ap- pears to me that there is wide discrepancy between the amount we are likely to secure from all tax sources and the amount we have appropriated to spend. Is that not correct, Mr Green?" Senator Green, giving an ex- pansive wave of his hand, averred emphatically, "Oh, there is plenty of money!"
 MANY DISAGREED
 Despite this Pollyanna optim- ism on the democratic senator's part, thirteen members of the house refused to O. K. the bill, because they were convinced that they were appropriating money which was not there. Then the arguments ragged far into the night until almost ' o'clock in the morning, with the bill finally being enacted but still over the serious doubts of some of the members of the house. Mrs. Eng strom, along with 12 other house legislators, was right as the facts have borne them out. Tn a state ment released a few days ago by the territorial tax collector, about S6,000,000 has been paid into the treasury. Quite a discrepancy be- tween what we owe and what we have in the bank!
 As to a little personal history, Mrs. Engstrom was born in Seat tie, is married and has two sons, born in Juneau, Elton, Jr., B years old Feb. 26 and Allan. 10 years old April 9. Her husband,

Ambassador JOzef Winiewicz
Since the Balfour Declar-
alton, the world has witnessed
enormous economic achievements
of the Israeli people in Palestine.
The first settlers in Palestine
proved their tremendous ability
in the field of organizing econ
omic life in a part of the world
not endowed by nature with es-
pecially valuable resources. The
Jewish communities in so many
lands all over the globe proved
their solidarity with the PaleS-
tinian settlers. The Israeli sold
iers are emphasizing with their
blood the right to full independ-
ence of country already organ
lied and economically developed
as no other country is in this
geographical region. Why then
all the discussions on the future
of Palestine which are still going
on in the world? Why do we still
have to organize meetings and
dinners for an independent IS
rael? Is the right of Israel to be
independent sufficiently estab-
lished?

speaking at that time in behalf
of the Polish delegation. We did
not expect opposition to our ma
ton. We thought it to be just
and reasonable, but it took sew
eral meetings before we overcalne
serious opposition -.
Israel and the Jews cannot be
blamed for this continuous delay
in implementing a clear decision
of the United Nations. They
carried out most of the obligations
placed UPON them by the parti-
ton plan. They gave the world
a proper answer to the question
which was so pertinent before
May Is, 1948, the date of the
Termination of the British man
date. The question was, who Will
establish order when the British
army withdraws. Israel proved
her ability to keep order in spite
of the fact that some of the
opponents of the November res
olution invaded the country, and
in spite of the severe curtailment
of the activities of the Israeli
armies by an embargo on the
shipment of arms to Palestine at
time when the invader was
receiving assistance. The delay

resolution and in recognizing the
