W. 5. pULLEN, JR.
VISITS HERE, FIRST
Time IN IA YEARS

Neither Winfield S. Pullen. Jr.
nor his friends who are greeting
him in Juneau can believe that this
is his first trip to his home town
in fourteen years.
With his wife and Winfield Had
ley, their six year old son and the
third Winfield in the family, Mr.
Pullen is visiting his parents, Mr.
and Mrs. w. S. Pullen.
In those fourteen years that fol-
lowed Mr.. Pullen's graduation from
the University of Washington, ne
has been with the General Electric
Company, except for the years of
his war service with the navy when
he was stationed in Washington,
D. c.
While he was still at the univer-
sity in Seattle, he was selected
among the group of electrical en-
cheering students for advance work
with General Electric by whom he
was employed until GE loaned him
to the navy in 1941.
During the war he served as a
civilian engineer with the Bureau
of Ships. His work had to do with
the construction of naval auxiliary
ships and the conversion of mer-
chant ships into naval auxiliaries.
yIhi1a in, ft, rt
he was married in Washington, D..
c., to Katharine Hadley, a Seattle
girl, daughter of a pioneer Wash
ington State family. Her grand
father was member of Wash
ington States Supreme Court.
The Pullens have been living in
Denver since the end of the war
Still with General Electric, Mr..
Pullen is in sales and engineering
work with privately owned public
utilities.
Though this is the younger Pull
lens first visit north since their
marriage, Mr.. and Mrs. Pullen, ST.,
have visited their son and daugh-
ter-in-l aw-and their grandson
when they have been south each
winter.
1t is only when he realizes the
changes that have come to Juneau
that he becomes aware of the pas
sage OF time, Mr.. Pullen said, going
back to those fourteen years. The
Pullens flew north by Pan Ameri-
can. There was no air transporta-
ton to Seattle III those days back
of 1885 The Baranof hotel was not
built The Goldstein building had
not suffered fire. And there was
no housing shortage.
Mr.. and Mrs. Pullen and their
young son will remain in Juneau
until early in August, visiting their
family and many friends here.

considered that If the Isbrandtsen

At the same time he singled out
the Isbrandtsen Line as the one

sent It's vessels into Shanghai. BY
way Of indirect rebuke, he praised

draw a sharp distinction between
legal rights involved on both sides
in the ship case.
He said patrol vessels of ans
government had a right to operate
under recognized rules to pre-.
vent a foreign vessel from moving
through territorial waters. On
the other hand a foreign vessel
outside territorial waters had the
right to operate unmolested and
not be chased or fired on.
He said that at least some o1

territorial waters and was there

American rights.
Then, in the note made public
yesterday. Mr.. Acheson stressed
another claim of illegality by the
Chinese-that is that the conduct
of the Chinese warship was con-
|trary to international law and
amounted to "indiscriminately and
wantonly firing" Mr.. Acheson
based his case on the reports sent
in by the skipper Of the Sir John
Franklin.
The note informed the Chinese
that the American craft. ordered

been sent to President Truman

support of the contention thar the

ruling erroneous, Holmes again
