HAS NO CONFIDENCE,
 PUBLIC POLLING

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-R- President Truman said today he did not have any confidence in the public opinion polls--even those which show g per cent of the peo- pie approve his actions.
 He told a news conference he makes his decisions on the basis of what he considers right or wrong and the polls have no eff feet on these decisions.
 A reporter told him that the latest Gallup Poll indicates 69 per cent of the people now approve his policies. The reporter wanted to know if that had changed the Presidents view as to the accuracy Of the polls.
 MT. Truman, who upset the poll sters in his stunning November election victory, replied that he had no more confidence in polls than he did during the campaign or than he had ever had.

Special Assistant Secretary of Inferior Gives Result
 of Alaska Tour

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-R-Al- aska has good chance of escaping a water-freight rate increase, a special assistant to the Secretary of the Interior said today.
 Carlton Skinner, who recently re- turned from an information-gath- ering tour and inspection of major Alaskan ports, told reporter.
 "The prospects are good for con- tinuing shipping services to Alaska without an increase in freig h t rates"
 Skinner said the Interior Depart ment will continue references with the Maritime Commission and the House Merchant Marine Commit tee looking toward new legislation to aid Alaska shipping.
 T think we will come up with government program to give ship ping companies the assistance ne- cessary to continue operations with out a rate increase" he said.
 Some Alaska operators said after the recent maritime strike they may need higher rates to break even. [ Government assistance in the past has included making additional ships from the maritime commission available at nominal cost.
 J. A. Talbot, Ketchikan, accom- panied Skinner on his touf. Talbot is a member of the Alaska Develop ment Board and former chair man of the Board of Alaska Trans portation Company.

Ndfiona|ists Forming New Defense Line-Nanking
 Is in Near Panic
(By The Associated Press)~

Noy l liC f1ooOIldbCQ iCoo'N
 Chinese Communists and Nation- alists accused each other today of stalling, dimming the prospects of peace. The Reds want a de facto surrender of the established re- gime.
 Nationalists were reported bol- stering new defense line below the Yangtze Valley. Nanking and Shanghai both appeared doomed to surrender to the Communists and in both great cities, separate peace moves were on.
 The new defense line would stretch from Hangchow southwest to Manchang and then northwest to Wuchang. Behind it would be much larger part of China than Chiank Kai-shek held when the war with Japan ended.
 Ranking was in near panic. Sol- diers outside the city stopped a train evacuating foreign office off, cials, elected them and rode on themselves.
 Moscow newspapers printed a Shanghai dispatch saying peace talks in China may continue a long time. The article said Chiang Kai-shek still has a hand in the Nationalist government although he turned over his duties last week to Vice President Ii Tsung-jan.

TRUMAN PLAN
 TO AID WORLD IS STARTING
Seey. Atheson Will Work Out PreIiminaries-0ther
 Departments 10 Help

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-lR-- President Truman said today that he has asked Secretary of State Acheson to work out preliminary plans for the development of "skills' to improve living standards of the worlds underdeveloped areas. He said such step in the United States foreign policy program has been in his mind ever since the Marshall plan was inaugurated.
 It's a part of the policy of the administration over the next four years, the President told a news conference
 He said that he did not know why there was so much confusion about Point Four of his inaugural ad- dress-that other countries did not seem to be confused about it.
 The Secretary of Commerce, the Secretary of Agriculture, and all the other departments will work WlJll tIlc StdtS OCpdi tAiCAlt Oii PAC liminary plans, he said.
 The Presidents remarks on his project for the worlds underde- veloped areas came on the heels of indications that the U. S. Treas ury doors may be less open to fore ign nations than they have heen.
 Instead, private capital is being emphasized as a possible source of aid to friendly countries, in one of two new trends which seem to be emerging in American foreign policy.
 The other apparently is aimed at presenting the United States as a rallying point to people all over the world in the cold war against Communism.

 Continued cold but clear weather is forecast for both Ely, the receiv- ing end of the haylift operation, and Fallon. the loading base.
 It was 25 degrees eelow zero in Ely yesterday. Even air force crew men who had just returned from operation Yukon in Alaska shivered in their fur-lined clothing. Plane engines were slow in starting

 The bitter cold also will take it's toll of livestock despite the emer- gency air force feed program.

 Foreign Minister Carlos Hevia of Cuba stopped in Washington to warn President Truman about these troubles last week, but couldn't t get in to see him. Too much in- auguration.

 to Start Landing
By RALPH D1GHTON

KODIAK ISLAND, Alaska, Jan. 27.-tR-A Navy amphibious task force will practice landing 2,00o marines the next few days for the coming mock battle for Kodiak Island.
 The five-ship force steamed into ice strewn Women's Bay yesterday after a 2,200 mile voyage from San Diego, Calf. The only casualties reported during the trip were a case of humps, two cases of meas les and little seasickness.
 The assault ships form the spear head of force of 40-odd vessels and 18,O00 men who will join in the maneuvers about the middle of February. Fleet units with all ma- jor types of navy ships except battleships will leave West Coast ports about February l.
 Marines to be landed in prac- tice for the main exercises will be required to spend at least two nights on Kodiak's snowy moun- tain slopes.
 The problem of the naval exer- else will be to occupy nearby Kal- son Bay. Army and Air Force units will join shore forces in defense.

'5enafe Hears Welfare Dept. Condemnation

The Senate this morning adopted permanent rules, passed Memor- ial asking the opening of salmon fishing in Boring Sea north of Bristol Bay, received a flock of resolutions from the Alaska Moose Association and heard blanket condemnation of the Territorial Department of Public Welfare from the pen of Miss Minnie Field, who operates the Winfield Home near here
 The feud between Miss Field and the Welfare Department is of long standing and she has on several occasions protested the passage of proposed Bill, which, she claims, would give the department control of all children's homes in the Ter ritory.
 The resolutions presented by the Alaska Moose Association ask stricter physical examinations fol school children, a vocational train ing program, a highway from Cor dova to the Interior, an increase in old age assistance grants, abol- ishment of fish traps and a re- olrement program for Territoria employees. The resolutions were referred by Senate President Enge- breth to appropriate committees.

No. 1, by Senator Anderson, directed to the Secretary of the Interior and Fish and Wildlife Service and seeking the opening of certain Boring Sea areas to salmon fishing, went sail ing through by 16-0 vote after its author.
