TO Gu Friends IN The Virgin Islands
Effective April ], 1913, Pan American World
Always started operating three daily local shuttle
trips between st. Thomas and San Juan, an almost
exact duplication of Caribbean Atlantic's local SER
vice. Pan Americans efforts TO invade Caribbean
Atlantic's local market cannot be justified on the
grounds OF traffic requirements. Caribbean Allan
tic has been providing about twice the number Of
airplane seats required by the traffic moving be-
tween St, Thomas and San Juan and there is abso-
lutely no need for the additional flights inagurated
by Pan American. 1t is obvious that Pan Ameri-
cans sole purpose in inaugurating these flights is
to destroy Caribbean Atlantic.
In view Of this action by Pan American, can any
one blame Caribbean Atlantic for opposing the
certi6cation Of Pan American into St. Croix !? We
Do not have The resources Of Pan american and
could not survive a dollar and cents battle with
them. However, we are counting on our friends
who have supported our local service since 1889,
when Pan American was providing these Islands
no service at al, TO see Us through this fight.

After Italy's Election
(New York Times

(New York Times)
 The first effect of Itay's election is manifested in the universal acclaim accorded Premier de Gasperls victory by democratic leaders everywhere and by the resurgence of economic confidence in the industrial centers of Italy and elsewhere, by the new spirit o accommodation prevailing the London conference on Germany and by the move within the West-European Union to extend this pact to Italy The second result is demonstrated not only by the dejected admission of defeat which has replaced the first Communist outcres against fraud" but even more convnclngiy by the split in the Popular Front and by the sudden partiality of some Communist leaders for the Mar shall Plan.
 The split in the Popular Front" is being led by Signor Romta former Minister of the Interior, who wishes to extrcate the eftwing Socialists from ther alliance with the Communists Roma recognizes that in such an alliance the Socialists face the same late that has befaen all Socialist parties collaborating with the Communists which is ultimate annihiaton. The defeat of the Popular Front and the strength shown by the Independent Socialists led by Signor Saragat has shown him the error Of the present policy of collaboration If he succeeds in reversing it he will only rob the Communists of their camou- fage front but will also reduce them to their real strength as minor fraction of the Italian electorate
 The move for Communist acceptance of the Mar shall Plan led by Signor d Vittorio the Communist leader of the Italian Confederation o Lapor who IS undoubtedly responding to strong pressure rom the rank and file Drawing a lesson from the Communist defeat and incidentally paying tribute to the immense appeal of the ERP, he declares that when soiie- one wants to help you it is ridiculous to slap nm m the facev That is exactly what the Communists have been doing on Moscow's orders. Now, however ol Vtoro urges that the labor unions of all countries shod be permitted to decide their positions toward the ERP independently of Russia
 This stand shows that the further com muns spreads its tenacles the greater the diversity of views and interests it runs up against This IS developing into a source of weakness which Com munis discipline may still be able to overcome within the Communist party ranks but which decreases It's effectiveness in the of determined democratic and constructive efforts

in general terms recognize the problems which have been recognized by Alaskans years and there fore are not subject to violent criticism Continued recognition of a problem is a logical step toward solution.
 But the statehood-refugee suggestion reflects once again that confusion in thinking the future of AL aska has not been entirely eliminated from the De- partment of the Interior.
 Alaskans at large presumably would have no ob- jection to foreigners of any friendly nation migrating the Territory to make their homes. The Territory development already is rich in contributions of i'm migrants from abroad many of whom have become naturazed American citizens. But these are men ana women who came here of their own free will
 They were not culled from behind barbed wire, herded onto vessels and delivered to land which Warne describes as an area where climatic conditions are similar to those of their homelands
 The mass refugee proposal is so riddled with weak nesses-the product of muddled thinking-that it is difficult to believe the idea originated in responsible quarters
 In the remote event that special measure" did facilitate the settlement of an appropriate Der" lone hundred? ten thousand? one million? of carefully selected refugees in Alaska, would they main the wards of the Interior Department-perhap under bureau such as the Office of Indian Affairs?
 And if Alaska became State with these refugees under the Alaskan roof would the Department of the Interior it's jurisdiction these quascitizens?
 And-inore fundamental than any of these ques- tions-if Alaska were already State, would the De- parment the Interior have the temerity to propose such scheme?
 Until these posers can be answered with clarity, that old bell had better be hauled back into the attic to gather more cobwebs

m.ssioners had to be in Australia by May II.
 Next day a luncheon guest at the White House was Judge Sam Rosenman, now acting as Truman's unofficial brain-truster. Testify, Truman remarked that he had the papers on his deck making Paul Smith and Richard Wells South Pacific Commissioners. Smith, he said, was out because he was no friend of Ed Pauley's. Wells, he added, was a friend of Adolf Berle's.
 Then the President proceeded to launch into tirade against that so-and-so Berle. T am not" he declared, going to thrown any bones to the Berle boys And he asked Sam if he knew good man to serve on the South Pacific Com mission instead.
 Rosenman replied that at the HiOlllcuJ uC uIull |, DuI ldOSl SuU- mitted the name of his law part ner, Milton Shalleck Milton had been appointed Judge Rosenman's law clerk at the instance of Jimmy Hines, the jailed Tammany lead CT who had given Rosenman his start as Bill-Drafting Commissioner in the New York Legislature. So Milton Shalleck is now en- route to the South Pacific With him as o-commissioner, is Felix Keesing, an Anthropology professor of Stanford University. Anthrop- ology doesn't happen to enter into the economic and social problems of the South Pacific. But much more important is the fact that Keesing is a friend of Pauley's.
 Queried Ey the New York Times just after his appointment, Shall eek said he had never been to the Pacific, knew nothing about the Pacific, had no interest in the Pacific. However, he is for the renomination of Harry Truman.

THE TouCHy WHITE HOUSE

At the State Departments Sug- gestion, Wells had played down the fact that he had such rock bottom Democrats behind him as Congressman Carl Vinson of Geor- gia and Pat Drewery of Virginia Instead he listed as his chief back CT a former Assistant Secretary of State, Adolf Berle. Berle, once 8 strong Truman man, more recently joined the Roosevelt boys (and 8 few million other people, in hoping Truman would not run for re- election.
 Suddenly, therefore the State De partment phoned Wells. asked whether he shared Berle's views about Truman. Was he likely tc come out against Truman? Af1c what were his exact relations with Berle? The White House, it was explained, was touchy on the sub ject.
 Wells, who is not an intimate Of Berle's answered all this to the satisfaction of the State Depart ment, and was told to get his passport, typhoid inoculation and be ready to leave San Francisco for Sydney, Australia, on May 8
 Meanwhile a strange silence set tied over the White House. The State Department could get nc commissions of appointment fol either Wells or Smith Appoint ment to the South Pacific Commis- sion pays no salary. To serve is an act of pure patriotism. Yet the State Department could not get MT. TrumanS OK.
