DELEGATES ARE ON WAY T0RED
 GROSS MEETING

Today, all over the world, dele lgates from countries adhering to the Geneva Convention of 1929, known as the Red Cross Treaty, are on their way to Stockholm to participate in the l7th Interna- tional Red Cross Conference, which opens on August 20 and extends through August 28. The Swedish Red Cross, under the presidency of Count Folke Bernadotte, is host to the meeting. Count Bernadotte is returning from his Palestine as- signment to open the Conference.
 The International Red Cross is a united effort on the part of governments and Red Cross socie- ties to achieve common humanitar- ian aims, and it's significance can not. be overestimated, says Basil O'Connor, National President of the American Red Cross, who will attend the conference.
 Begun in 1863, and meeting at regular intervals except when war has intervened, this years Con- ference is the first since 1938 Seventy-two governments and six ty-six national Red Cross socie- ties are eligible to participate in the conference, highest deliberative body of the International Red Cross. The member countries con- tain 90 percent of the worlds pop ulation.
 Forty-one countries and fifty-two societies have formally announced their intentions to attend the Con- ference and about twenty others are expected to send delegates. The Red Cross societies of Poland and Yugoslavia have indicated they may not participate if representa- tives from Spain are in attend ance, but as membership in the Conference is open to all coun- tries adhering the the Red Cross Treaty, it is hoped that the gov- ernments and Red Cross societies of Poland and Yugoslavia will send delegates.
 No advice has been received from the Soviet Union in respect to its attendance, but it is a Red Cross Treaty adherent and has, together with the Alliance of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, heretofore participated actively in Interna- ticnal Red Crcss Conferences. Un- der the statutes and rules of the Conferences all decisions are by simple majority of the votes cast, and each government and each Red Cross organization represented has one vote.
 Principal items on the Confer ence agenda call for consideration of revisions of the Red Cross Treaty and the Convention relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War and a proposed new conven- tion that would afford certain pro- lection to civilian victims of war.

AIES. SAYS LES
 J0BSAvMLABE
 THRU TERRITORY
Employment Service Re- ports Housing Shortage
 Diseoudges Immigration

Fewer job openings have been il evidence in Alaska thus far il i l948 than in any year since Pear Harbor, according to figures re. 1 leased by A. A. Hedges, Director of the Alaska Territorial Employ. ment Service. A lull in large scalt construction this summer is chiefly responsible. Many other industries have suffered from other contri- butory factors.
 Local employment offices made 44O0 placements in the first six months of 1948, compared with s425 placements for the same per iod in 1947. 1902 veterans were placed. As placement activities dropped, the number of claims shot upward with over 36,00C claims taken in the January June period in 1948 against only 16,00l for the same period in 1947. Dur ing the winter quarter the number of workers in covered employment maintained a level approximately 15 percent higher than during the same months in 1947. As spring wore on and summer approached, the net gain over 1947 diminished and, although figures are not yet in for the quarter ending June 30, l948. it is now probable that the number in covered employment has dropped appreciably below the l947 figure for this date.
 The Territory is now enjoying peak employment although small surpluses of lahcr, chiefly un- skilled and semi-skilled, are pres srt in a few communities The labor surpluses in areas along the coast will rise sharply at the end of the salmon packing season which will be completed in a few weeks.
 The num.s1l C. joo seekers en- tering the Territory from the States is considerably less than in the earlier part of the summer. Many of those who came to Alaska in April and May turned back when they found no jobs awaiting them, with the result that some projects are now slightly short of the nee essary amount of labor needed to complete them before cold weash- CT sets in.
 Mail inquiries from job appli- cents in the continental United States have decreased in the las. few months, but each mail con- tinues to bring several letters. Most mail applicants lall into the unskilled and semi-skilled occupa- tional groups for whom there are few job openings. Job openings in the skilled and professional groups often go untitled because employ CTS are unable to offer any en- couragement to qualified appli- cants who must have housing o1 scme kind. The housing shortage which exists in most Alaska com munities is the major obstacle tc successful recruitment of qualified applicants, not only from the States but from one Alaska community to another.

Waterfowl Count Shows Fewer
 Game Birds Found on Fringe Of North American Continent

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.--tR-- A bird countalong the northwest ern fringe of the North American continent turned up nearly as many waterfowl as there are farth- CT south in Canada, but fewer game birds
 The Fish and Wildlife Service reporting this today. said the sum- mer-long aerial study by its bio- logist, Robert H. Smith, and Rob- ert P Allen of the National Au- dubon Society, was the most in- tensive ever made on the Far North's waterfowl breeding grounds.
 While saying the waterfowl pop ulations compared favorahly with those in southern Canada, the agency added:
 The greater percentage of the ducks observed were non-game birds--the low-flying or fish-eat- ing scoters, old-squaw and king elders.
 "Mallards and pintails. the most important game species in the United States. made up small percentage of the ducks in the area.
 'vThe vast Far North duck breed ing grounds still remain unstudied A comprehensive estimate of duck populations can be made only by broadening the forthcoming sur veys to include other regions in north eastern Alaska and Canada s northwest territories
 The two scientists flew l4,272 miles over the Athabaska Delto, the Great Slave Lake parklands, the valley and delta of the Mac kenzie River, the Yukon Territory's Old Crow Flats, and the Arctic coastline from Point Barrow, AL aska eastward to Bathurst Inlet in Canada.
 The density of ducks in the sur vey ranged from 56 per square mile on the Old Crow Flats to less than four per square mile in the upland tundra country south of Point Barrow.

ACCUSATION IS HURLED AT
 SOVIET UNION
Fomenting World Revolu- lion by Force, Coer-
 tion, Terrorism"
By The Associated Press)

The United States accused Russia today oi working for world revo- lution through international com- munism by force, coercion and ter- roriSm"
 John Foster Dulles, who may be- come Secretary of State, should Gov. Thomas E. Dewey be elected president week hence, voiced the charge before the political commit tee of the United Nations.
 He declared Russian intervention in Greece, working through the communist states of Albania, Bull garia and Yugoslavia, and her veto of compromise to solve the Berlin blockade were parts of "a general effort to extend the power of Sov- jet communism throug hout the world"
 Neutral powers on the Security Council renewed efforts to mediate the Berlin crisis. Dulles spoke in favor of a resolution put up by the United States, Britain, France and China, to force the northern com munist neighbors of Greece to stop aiding Greek rebels.

Proposals Made al CAB Hearing di Anchorage
 Mayor, Carter Testify

ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Oct 26.- ItR-Alaska needs a seven-day air lines week and an extension of AL aska service to other West Coast points than Seattle, two witnesses told civil aeronautics board hear ing yestrday.
 Juneau Mayor Waino Hendrickson ! and Charles w. Carter, represen- tative of the Juneau Chamber of Commerce, were among several wit nesses who followed Alaska Cover nor Ernest Gruening to the stand
 The Governor earlier asked the CAB to end certiticated airlines monopoly which he claims may make Juneau a flagstop and Ket- chikan-Alaskas first city-its last Hendrickson praised the present service of certified carriers He add cd, however, seven-day service would make it possible for merchants to fly to Seattle Sunday and be back ready for business Monday morn-
 
 ing.
 Carter supported Gruening's con- tention that the service should be extended beyond Seattle to such points as Portland and San Fran cisco.
 Gruening cited the plight of Ket- chikan residents wishing to travel to Fairbanks. The trip, hic h should take six hours, requires 26 he said, because of stop overs, taxi service and branch line flights. He declared intra-Alaska service by bush pilots has saved the day for Alaskans by bringing down rates where monopoly previously was un- checked"
 Thirty-one airlines cities and government bureau have filed notice of intentions to appear here or in Washington, D. C., where the sec ond phase of the hearings will be- gin 10 days after the Anchorage ses- sons wind up, an estimated week hence.
 Anchorage Chamber of Com merce witnesses were heard during the afternoon sessions. Chamber President Robert Atwood said his organization does not advocate one carrier over another, but wants ad- ditior.,l service.

ENROUTE THROUGH MID- WEST.-Too many voters have the idea that once they pick a Pres ident every four years their voting job as American citizens is over. They don't seem to realize that no President. no matter what the par ty, can get put across a program without an intelligent Congress.
 If Congress is made up of party hacks and hangers-on, chiefly ln- terested in patronage and nepotism' almost any administration will bog down. With a view to sorting out the Congressional wheat from the chaff, therefore, here is the Wash ington Merry -Go-Round scorecard of Congress.
