BOLD DARE TO RUSSIA
 IS MADE
Yugos|avia Broadside Is Announced by Tito's
 Chief Spokesman


 BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, Sept. 13 -IR-Yugoslavia dared Russia to- day to take her complaints against this country to the United Nations.
 Moshe Pijade, one of Premier Marshal Tito's top-ranking spokes- men, said in an article in the off cial newspaper, Borba:
 "Yugoslavia will have nothing to lose"
 Pijade's blast, latest troadside in the war of words Between the Kremlin and Tito's regime, was touched off by an article in the Russian foreign policy weekly, New Times, which had accused Yugo- slavia of duplicity in her dealings with neighbor Albania.
 Tito, meanwhile, has read Russia a lesson from her own history books, warning he intends to build Socialism in one country without coaching from the Kremlin. "So- cialism in one country" once was the announced goal of Premier Stalin.

STEEL FIRMS LINE UP

PITTSBURGH, Sept. 13. -tR- Big Steel started lining up today behind the Presidential board s formula for peace in America s basic industry.
 There won't be any steel strike fer the next II days-and maybe none at all. The wage dispute that threatened to tie the nation in economic knots apparently is head ed for happy solution.
 President Truman is highly gratified" about the whole thing.
 CIO United Steelworkers and six major steel producers agreed to extension of the strike truce at re- quest of the chief executive The truce expires at midnight tonight. It will continue to Sept. 25.
 The steelworkers also accepted recommendations of the Presidents s steel fact finding board even though it meant giving up fourth round wage increase.
 sThe President is highly grati- fled" said the White House. He is very much pleased with the way things have developed up to now"
 Republic Steel Corporation of Cleveland, the nations No. pro- ducer, was the first to announce willingness to bargain pensions as recommended by the Presidential board in a 10-cent hourly package not including wages.
 Then No. 9 producer-Jones and Laughlin Steel Corporation of Pitts burgh-followed suit, accepting the peace plan "as basis for collec- tive bargaining
 The Wall Street Journal at the same time said only "a slight in- crease" in labor costs will result if the recommended social insurance program is put into effect. The newspaper added that most steel companies now have some form of group life insurance but less than half have company financed acci- dent, sickness and hospital and sur gical benefits.
 The men who make steel will have to be satisfied with the av- craze Sl.65 an hour they now re- ceive The union won three in- creases totalling 46 cents since the end of World War II.
 Maurice J. Tobin, Secretary of Labor, predicted the steel workers acceptance of the board findings will result in national prosperity such as this country has rarely known"
 Tobin made the prediction at Kansas City where he spoke at a building dedication.

Burlington to Seek Millions for ALaska Work
Sales Tax Is
 voted, 5ifka

SITKA, Alaska, Sept. 13.-tR- Sitka went to the polls Monday and voted for the two per cent sales tax, 25l for and 60 against.
 The voters turned down longer term for mayor and council by a vote of 138 for but 175 against.
 Before the election the public ap- peared apathetic on the sales tax and the only campaign for rati- ication was carried on gratis by Bob DeArmond and Jack Calvin, owners of the Sitka Printing Com pany, who issued and broadcast over $100 worth of posters and fliers, most of which were removed surreptitiously as fast as posted indicating some opposition to the measure although no one openly advocated its defeat. If the mea- sure had been defeated, property taxes would inevitably had to be raised.

FINAN(IER5
 SAY DEvALUE
 FOR EXPORTS
Bankers Advice Aimed al Britain : Truman 10
 Talk Off Cuff
By STERLIN F. GREEN and JOHN M. HIGHTOWER

WASHINGTON, Sept. 13-IR- The International Monetary Fund today advised dollar-short countries to devalue their currencies, if need be, to boost their dollar-earnings exports.
 Without singling out the British pound but with Britain's dollar crisis obviously in mind, the report was laid before the opening session today of the fourth annual meeting of the Boards of Governors of the multi-billion dollar fund and World Bank.
 Shortly thereafter, c..c financial leaders of the 48 member nations were to hear an off-thc-cuff ad- dress by President Truman.
 It may be better for a country to change an unsuitable" exchange rate than to clamp on restrictions which "endanger it's well-ceing and efficiency" said the report of the funds executive directors.
 Although the document referred to all deficit nations its effect was to spotlight the British prob- lem-and to add pressure to numerous past suggestions for sterling devaluation.
 The impact was the greater be- cause cabinet-level British U s. Canada conference ended yesterday with agreement on a ten-point treatment for Britain's dollar ills without including revaluation of the pound as one of the points.

 " ASHINGTON- President Tru- man doesn't nurse grudges against most of his political enemies, but he has a few pet peeves that ap- parently he will never forget. Orc of them is gaunt, gray Bernard Baruch, the friend of Presidents, and one of the nations few elder statesmen.
 One year ago Baruch declined Truman's invitation to serve on a special committee to support his re- election, and Truman, in turn, wrote Baruch one of the most caus- tic letters of the campaign. He reminded him; among other things, how he had appointed his brother Herman as Ambassador to Holland.
 Sequel came the other day when the President tried to persuade his old friend, Adm. William D. Leahy, to become Ambassador to Holland.
 You know how feel about that old so-and-so, Baruch," said MT. Truman. He still has his brother over there in Holland as Ambassa- dor and want you to take his

HOUSING E VITAL TO |ALASkA'S FUTURE,
 SAYS CONGRESSMAN

Congressman Hugh B. Mitchell of Washington spoke today of the high cost of lack of housing in Alaska"
 At the Rotary Club luncheon at the Baranof Hotel, he said he had seen on his Alaska trip "the defi- mite need of more housing to help the armed forces meet defense commitments"
 Lack of housing is also keeping many skilled would-be settlers from staying in Alaska, he said
 Mitchell, who passed through Juneau Friday on the journey north with Secretary for Air w. Stuart Symington, has spent the time since Investigating military and civilian housing in Alaska for the House Banking and Currency Committee.
 He said he had been instructed by the chairman of the committee to see what prospects are of the $10,000,00O revolving fund for the Alaska Housing Authority meeting the needs of the Territory.
 He pointed out that lack of hous- ing is hampering Alaskan develop ment.
 "Of all the civilians and members of the Armed Forces I met on this trip, not one had bad word for Alaska" he said.
 "Yet most of them will return to the states when their tours of duty are up. Bug in the ointment is lack of housing"
 He said that while Federal aid to housing will be help, he sees a great opportunity for the estab- lishment of housing industry in Alaska by Alaskans.
 He said he recognizes that the development of Alaska is vital not only to Seattle hut to the whole United States.
 Arriving from Anchorage yester- day, Mitchell met today with AHA.
 Mitchell promised to collaborate closely with Delegate E. L. (Bob) Bartlett in Westinghouse I have in the past
 He was to leave for Seattle by Pan American Airways this after noon.
 At the Rotary Club luncheon, the matter of a public picnic ground on the new Nugget Creek road was brought up, and a committee was assigned to plan the picnic ground in conjunction with the Forest Service.
 The picnic ground would be near Mendenhall Glacier.
 Guests at the meeting included Dr. w. w. Beatty, Director of Edu- cation, Bureau of Indian Affairs, and Mayor 2. L. Loussac of An- chorage.

MULLANEY TAXES WITNESS STAND
 IN TRAP TAX SUIT
Defense of Territorial Tax Commissioner Opens
 With His Testimony

With his side-the Territory Of Alaska-up at bat, Attorney Gen eral J. Gerald Williams called Tax Commissioner M. P. Mullaney to the stand this morning, in the fifth day of the fishtfap tax hearing.
 Mullaney is defendant in the suit brought by P. E. Harris and Com pany, with three partners in the Mutual Trap Company as inter- yenors The firms seek a perma- nent injunction restraining collec- ton of the fishtrap tax, as increased by the 1949 Legislature, and a ruling that the act, Chapter II, is null and void
 Partners in the Mutual firm are August Buschmann, w. Laurence Freeburn and A. P. Wolf, all of Seattle. The firm operates three fishtraps, and is not engaged in canning or other allied activity.
 Attorney R. E. Robertson of Ju- neau presented the case for the in tervenors. Co-counsel is Edward w. Allen of Seattle.
 Much time was taken up today in entering reports and other docu- ments as defendants exhibits, with Tax Commissioner Mullaney firm and outspoken in his capacity as a witness. Evidence includes Terri torial tax returns of the Harris and Mutual companies, ard analyses and summaries Mullaney said are cased on their returns.
 Against frequent objection to ad- instability by Attorney w. O.. Arnold for both plaintiff and inter venors, and questions by Judge George w. Folta for clarification, defendants presentation slowly got under way.
 Both Harris and Mutual rested their cases an hour after court con- vened this morning, when Paul O. Nielsen, C.P.A., of Moss Adams and Company, Seattle, returned to the stand for further cross-examination Nielsen, Mutual Company's only witness, was cross-examined on tender service and price differen- tials between trap-caught and seine-caught salmon.
 Two Territorial ofrlcials called by the Harris Company had preceded him on the stand yesterday after noon. Dr. James c. Ryan, Com missioner of Education, and Assist ant Auditor Neil F. Moore were questioned on the solvency of the Territory, as the Harris Company attorney tried to show that the Territory had legislated the fish, trap tax when unable to meet it's obligations. Through cross-exami- nation, Attorney General Williams pointed out that the Territory has some $1 ,500,000 in excess of current outstanding vouchers, most of it earmarked for other than running expenses.
 This is the third court test of 1949 tax legislation, other suits hav- ing concerned the income tax and the increased license fees levied on non- resident fishermen.
