 Confirmation of Dr. Ernest Gruening Governor of Alaska again is held up in the United States Senate this time because of protests from Alaska legislators Governor Gruening, however has the sup port of members of the Territorial Legis- lature.
 Opponents of Gruening have urged the nomination of Alaskan to the post which, from this distance would seem to be sensible course. Gruening, no Alaskan is customer who has served Territorial governor since New Deal days. If, seems likely, Alaska soon is to become State appointment of one its own citizens the governors chair would appear to be a reasonable and desirable preliminary.

WHERE HE GOT THE MONTY

In 1946, he registered under the name Of Edward von Rothkirch as lobbyist for the Central European Research Council, and was active on Capitol Hill among isolationist Congressmen and Congressmen of German descent.
 He was also connected in l94G with the Central European Rehah- ilitation Association, with head quarters at 201 Division Ave, in Brooklyn, and headed by Father Don Odo, proclaimed Duke Of Wurttemberg.
 Some indications as to where Baron x has been able to raise his funds may be had from the fact that the assets of the Central European Rehabilitation Associa tion in the Riggs National Bank jumped from s to Sl69,000 in less than a year in 1946-47. It is be- lieved that some of these funds were drawn on to finance underground activities in Soviet areas in Gen. tral Europe

LANSING, Mich, Mar. IT, -tR- State Police and government inves- tigators launched an investigation today into the public sale of war surplus radio sets with concealed explosive charge.
 They said more than 1000 of the sets have been sold in Mich igan.
 The principal buyers have been amateur radio operators who dis assemble the sets to obtain parts.
 State Police Commissioner Don- aid s. Leonard warned purchasers to leave them strictly alone until we can learn how to make them safe. Each one has enough TINT in it to blow mans head off"
 The purpose of>the charge, police explained, was to destroy the set to prevent it's falling intact into enemy hands during the war.
 The sets cost the government about S1,000 each. A Detroit deal- CT has been selling them for s4.95 each. They weigh about 40 pounds.

Truman's Views Run Against Popular Tide
Seattle Times)

Seattle Times)
 Plans being furthered in Washington, D. O., to return a considerable part of the Armys shipping business to Alaska to privatelyowned ships should be encouraged from this coast That is desirable objective if the cost of shipments by commercial carrier is little higher. The country will never have a nourshng and successful merchant marine if the government insists remaining in competition with private shipping companies
 But in contradiction to this effort was recent order from President Truman himself. The President has directed the Army to assume operation of nine passengers vessels of the CA type which have been in the service of private Companies in the Atlantic
 These ships have been used largely to transport displaced persons from Europe to the United States transfer to the Army ordered without much presidential explanation and the purpose of the move is not clear
 The Army operating 206 merchant ships and 21 of these clearly in competitor with private shipping companies The endeavor to reduce this number as far as the Alaska trade is concerned is commendable But the outlook does not appear en- couraging as long as the opposite point of view continues to prevail at the White House.
