COMMUNITY BUILDING I5
 FINANCED

Juneaus Community Building i. assured, with announcement today by Keith G. Wildes, chairman of the finance committee. that the full amount of $30O,o0o has been sub- scribed
 The goal was reached after "fly- ing team" gave final squirt Sat- urday to the intensive community drive. The Community Building will be just that, in fact as well as in name, for more than 100 investors are represented in the total financ- ing.
 This is the first step in meet ing requirements of the U. S. Coast Guard for establishment of 17th District (Alaska) Headquarters in Juneau. The building is to be ready for occupancy July l.
 It is understood that Harold B. Foss, Juneau architect and mem Der of the committee, is conferring with Coast Guard officials today in Washington, D. O., on arrange ment of floor space.
 With Wildes and F'oss on the committee are J. s. MacKinnon, J. A. Mclean, George A. Parks, N. c. Banfield and Wallis George.
 The Community Building recently was incorporated.
 Finance Chairman Wildes said today
 Members of the committee are extremely happy and proud to re- port to the citizens of Juneau that the community building to house the Coast Guard Headquarters is fi- nanced. They are happy to have this important job successfully com- pleted and are proud of the citi- zens of Juneau for the way they have supported this important pro- ject. It is one of the most worth while projects that the community has had the opportunity to support  and put over in many years.
 Tt was felt the committee had a deadline and it was must to put this project over and, therefore some of the committee have sub scribed quite heavily to the invest ment. It was impossible for the com- mittee to contact all the business men and property owners in Juneau. Without doubt, there will be some who have not had the opportunity to invest and it is still possible for them to obtain small amounts, and join with the hundred-odd investors now in.
 Not only at present, but much more SO in the future, citizen of Juneau who is businessman or property-owner, will be very proud and happy to feel that he contrib uted his share to the success of the Community Building. It will be a landmark and big step forward for Juneau"

NATI0NALI5T5 ARE
 WITHDRAWING IN THREE CHINA AREAS
Prepare to Fight On If
 Present Peace 0vertures Are Turned Down
(By The Associated Press)

Thousands of plodding National ,ist troops, showing no sign that any fight was left in them, were reported withdrawing from the Nanking, Shanghai and Hangchow areas of China today. They may be enroute to Chekiang Province, where Chiang Kai-shek is in at least temporary retirement
 The Nationalist government con- tinued the southward removal of its ministries lin order to fight on if Communist peace terms are too harsh to be acceptable" a government spokesman said. The governments Director of Infor- nation said Chiang is still Presi- dent of China and Vice President Ii Tsung-jen is serving as Acting President only because Chiang is absent from his seat of govern ment and unable to serve
 The Communists, with victory piled upon victory, were in con- trol of virtually all China north of the Yangtze River. Peiping surrendered Saturday.
 The Communist radio, meanwhile, assailed what it called the "hypo- critical peace offensive" of the Nationalists under Ii. It urged a coalition united under the lead ership of the Communist party and emulating 'our friend and neighbor, the Soviet Union."
 China's former Premier, T. V. Soong, who just announced his re- tirement as governor of Kwantung Province, arrived by plane in Hong Kong and asked for police pro- lection. He is high on the Chinese Communist list of war criminals. ,

STOCK SUFFERING

The worst winter in years is reap ing grim harvest in the cattle
 raising areas of the West today Up-
 wards of a million head of cattle and sheep are stranded in huge snow drifts, facing death from star vation. Roads are hlocked, and more litter cold and snow are on the way to create blizzard conditions. In Nevada alone, which is not 'the hardest hit of the states, a stockmens association official says he expects 50 per cent loss among ,, 5000 cattle. That means about Is, COO beef animals may be frozen or starved to death. The official,
 George Swallow, of Ely, expects 50,- l000 sheep to perish, too, on Nevada ranges.
 Western Utah is the worst off. Vast numbers of cattle are being lost on the eastern edge of the
 states great basin. And the snow
 fall is continuing today without
 sign of letup.
 The situation is also critical in
 parts of Wyoming and the western
 plains area. Snow depths of three
 feet are common But huge drifts
 have been piled up by the winds.
