Situation 3-Yugoslavia: Tito has had S30,O0O,000 in gold salted away in Portugal. He has now withdrawn $5 0O0,0 GOO to finance revolts in oth- CT satellite countries. Once dlsllk- ed by the Serbs, Tito is now their hero, thanks to opposing Moscow's farm collectiyization. In fact, Ti- to- still a staunch Communist, IS stronger at home than ever, could not be kicked out of office, can only be removed by assassination.
 So far, Moscow has tried the lat ter course-and much more ire quently than has leaked to the press. Apparently, Stalin, worried over what goes on in the other satellite countries, doesn't want to risk open war with their friend Yugoslavia. However, if Stalin is slapped back too hard, he may have to invade Yugoslavia to save face.
 Through U. s. Eyes-If the Red Army should cross the Yugoslav border, U. s. military experts be- lieve Tito's troops can hold out about three months, which is long, CT than the French and Belgians could probably hold out in case the Russians tried to move to the English Channel.
 In the first place, Tito's troops, prior to the break with Moscow, had been favored above all the satellite countries. They had been built up to be the spearhead of an attack on Trieste and Italy, had received tanks, artillery, most of it lend lease from the U. s.
 To bolster Yugoslavia's defense, the United States has enough arms to supply four divisions stored on the British Island of Malta. They could be rushed to the Dalmatian Coast in hurry.
 U. s. WOrry-Should Yugoslavia fall completely to Moscow, then Greece, according to U. s. experts would soon go Communist They point out that it was not until Tito cut off supplies to the Greek guer- rillas that the Greek army made any real progress in cleaning up the Communists-despi the best brains and supplies the U. s. Army could send.
 1 And if Greece goes Commun- i ist, then Turkey, the Suez Canal, plus Near Eastern oil areas and North Africa would follow. That is why a steel mill is being ship ped to Tito today also why he is getting an American loan, plus any supplies which can bolster the man who still remains a ruthless, unre- lenting dictator, but who is the only European who has stood up against the power of the Politburo and got away with it.
 Helping Tito is. of course, cal culated risk which can have the same result as our 1940 aid to France and England-namely, en- broiling us in war Which is why the Balkans of 1949 could so easily be another Sarajevo.

DANGER vs. HOPE

Yet with all its dynamite laden danger, the Balkan situation also presents one of the most optimistic developments in the cold war against Russia. For, to date, Rus sia has suffered serious defeats.
 There are three phases to the Balkan battle, one laid in Washing ton, one in Yugoslavia, one in the other satellite countries. Here is how they stack up
 Situation l-Washington: With out benefit of fanfare, the State Department has been doing an ef- ficient job of boycotting trade to the Little Iron Curtain countries. Several million dollars worth of goods ordered by Poland and Czech oslovakia are on New York docks ready to move. But they can't get clearance.
 The Polish Ambassador has been beating a path to State Department doors, then to the Commerce De- partment, then back again. All he gets is the polite run-around Tine State Department says export licenses are issued by the Con- merce Department and the Con- merce Department says policy is fixed by the State Department.
 The run-around is no accident It's deliberate and carefully plan- ned. And it's having real repercus- sions behind the Little Iron Cur tain.
 Situation 2-Behind the Little Iron Curtain: Near economic chaos now reigns in Poland, CZechoslo- vakia, Bulgaria, Hungary, Rumania This is partly result of the US trade boycott. People have money but they can't buy. There arc no consumers goods on store shelv- es. And housewives are weary ol Russian strangulation.
 In addition, farmers are revolt ing at collectlvlzation, natlona pride is coming to the front, anc people generally don't like theil Russian masters.
 Also, Tito, formerly an NKVI operator trained by the Soviet, i. now using NKVD nichols against the Soviet, not merely in Yugosla- via, but in all the satellite coun- tries. He has about as many un- derground agents in Czechoslovakia Bulgaria and Rumania as Moscow has working against him.
 Should this network of under. cover revolt start popping, 1t may start chain reaction throughout all Eastern Europe.

Ask Appropriation For Highways,
 Trails, In Alaska

WASHINGTON LP)-An appro- priation of $9,00O,OOO will be asked for highways and trails to accom- modate the fast increasing popula- tion to Alaska. The budget bureau bureau will ask Congress to in- clude it in a deficiency bill.
 B. Frank Heintzleman regional forester for the Territory, told a reporter Saturday the. roads are needed for communities where pa per mills are planned, both for residents of those areas and to provide access to the forests.
 He said the forest service now is laying out about 400 home sites near Ketchikan, and plans others around other towns in the area where mills will be established.
 Work on the first paper mill, to cost $33,O00,0OO, will start near Ketchikan in the spring, he said.
 Other roads and trails would be constructed around Juneau and Sitka.
 Only this week President Tru- man asked Congress for a suple- mental appropriation of $6,653, ,000 for the federal works agency, to cover additional salaries and ex- penses "and construction of forest highways in Alaska by the public roads administration" The exact amount for Alaskan highways has not been made public.

LIFTING THE LID AT JUNEAU
Saturday. March 5. ls4s CBy James HutcheSon)

JUNEAU, P) The House re- considered yesterday afternoon it's defeat of a bill to eliminate ex- perience rating credits under the unemployment compensation law, and the bill passed 14-8.
 The bill was introduced by Rep. Alfred A. Owen, Jr., Third Divi- sion Democrat from Anchorage.
 The rating section of the act all lows credits estimated at more than $l,OOO,O00 this year to em- ployers who maintained stable payrolls. Organized labor opposed the bill.
 Legality of the rating clause is now before the circuit court in San Francisco on an appeal after Alaska's district court ruled it in valid on the grounds of legislature procedure error in enacting the clause.
 Reconsideration came on motion of Rep. Jack Conright, Anchorage Democrat, who had voted with the majority against it yesterday morning. Four votes were changed to reverse the earlier 1910 deci- sion-Conright, G. E. Almquist, Amelia A. Gunderson and Percy

Senate Delays Confirmation Of Gov. Gruening

GAP Special Washington Service)
 WASHINGTON, (P)-The Sen ate interior committee voted today to confirm Llewellyn M. Williams as secretary of Alaska but put off action on Gov. Ernest Gruening because of protests of Alaska leg iSlatorS.
 Senator Butler R.-NebD, led the fight to postpone confirmation of Greuning. He was supported by Senator Millikin R.-ColoD.
 Senator Gordon R.-OreD ex- pressed the opinion that the ob- jections should have been raised sooner, but offered a motion to re- consider the favorable vote cast earlier for the Alaskan governor.
 The committee set a deadline next Monday for receiving the formal objections to Greuning's nomination from the Alaskan law makers.
 Butler did not take sides in the objection, but said "There is no urgency about the appointment; Governor Gruening has just as much authority now as he would have after confirmation.
 Among the telegrams from Alaskans asking for delay in the Gruening were some supporting the candidacy of Howard Lyng, of Nome member of the Territorial

Diplomats throughout the west ern world were still puzzling to- day how to interpret the Soviet switch in foreign ministers.
 Some observers in Washington, London and Paris believe the re- moval of V. M. Molotov from the foreign ministry and his replace ment by Andrei Vishinsky, a man of lesser stature in Russia, means the Russians are about to inten- sify their programs and let up on communist expansion temporar- fly. This may mean a new period of extreme Russian isolationism, they say.
 Foreign observers in Moscow it. self speculated whether the sud den shift might bring about new efforts to arrange a meeting of the big four council of foreign minis ters.

tBY Vern Haugland)

WASHINGTON, (P)-The gov ernment recently has loaned Alas kan communities $286,OOO for the advance planning on 27 public works projects, commissio r George Field of the bureau of community facilities said Satur- day.
 The estimated cost of building the projects-school and hospital buildings and waterworks is $13,5OO,OOO.
 Legislation has been intro duced in the 81st Congress to pro- vide for a program of public works to assist in the development of Alaska Field told a reporter.
 "The legislation would aid the local and Territorial governments in financing and building public works needed to maintain the health and welfare of the com munities, and by so doing speed the economic growth of the Terri tory.
 Overall needs for such facili- ties are large"
 Senator Magnuson O.-Wash) and Delegate Bartlett, have intro duced identical bills (S. 855 and HR. 224 to authorize an Alaska public works program continuing until June 30, 1855.
 An estimated $5O,OO0,0OO would be required to bring the Terri tory's public works up to the standards required for her present population. The bills propose that 50 per cent of the federal govern ment's outlay for the program would be repaid.
 During the past 15 years, Field said, the federal government has helped finance, through grants av- eraging 45 per cent of the total cost, construction of schools, hos
