WASHINGTON, lP)-The bur-
eau of reclamation suggests that
Alaska turn to war veterans for a
revival of the Territory's once
thriving reindeer industry.
This industry has suffered from
"a lack of interest" since it was
turned over to Alaska natives in
1887, the bureau says.
The reclamation bureau has
proposed, in 324-page report on
Alaska, that u. S. reclamation

WASHINGTON, up - Canada
and the United States need to CO.
operate more closely in develop
ment of the Yukon-Alaska North
west, a bureau of reclamation
summary says.
One barrier to cooperative de-
velopment it says, is U. S. mari
time law which deny Alaska the
use of Canadian steamship lines
from Prince Rupert, B. c., Cana
dian railway terminal.
The report said a railroad into
Alaska would be less costly to
build and to maintain than a per-
manent hard-surface highway.
And it urged transfer of some
wholesaler and jobber or distribu-
tor functions from the States into
Alaska in order to end the "Sys-
tenn which now gives Seattle a
cut out of every Alaskan dollar"
Under present law, the report
said, goods shipped by rail from
the United States to Prince Rupert
can be delivered to Alaska only in
ships of U. S. registry.
use of the port of Prince Ru-
pert would have a most beneficial
effect on transportation costs if
Canadian vessels were permitted
to carry freight from that port to
Alaska" the bureau said.
There is perhaps no part of the
world where two nations have
more closely identical problems,
conditions and detectives than the
United States and Canada have in
their lands in the northwestern
part of the Continent.
THE development of these
lands, necessary in the broad ma
tiOnal interests of the two Coun-
tries, depends substantially, if not
primarily our transportation, and
some move looking to cooperative
action in this direction appears to
be needed"
Prince Rupert is $40 miles north
of Seattle and only 90 miles from
the nearest Alaska port.

At A Glance --
Saturday. June Is. l94s
(By The Associated Press


Three nations - Canada, Bel
GUM and Syria - are charting
their future courses in elections
this weekend.
Canadians will decide by ballot
Monday which party they think
will better advance the prosperity
of Canada's 100000 citizens.
They have the choice of re-electing
the liberal administration of
Prime Minister Louis St. Laurent
or turning to other parties.
Chief and traditional political
foe of the liberals is the progress
sive conservative party led by the
former premier Of Ontario, George
Drek. Socialism is represented by
the Cooperative Commonwealth
Federation CCCF) led by NJ. j.
ColdWellam. There are several
minor parties.
A total of 848 candidates seek
262 seats in Canada's Dist parlja-
ment. Newfoundland will vote as
a province of Canada for the first
time.
There is a royal issue in Bel
GUM. The nations largest party
the Social Christians support
ing a proposal that former King
Leopold III be put back on the
throne. He now is in exile in
Switzerland.
Many Belgians resent the fact
that Leopold surrendered his
country to the Nazis instead of
fleeing to set up government to
fight in exile as did Queen Will
helmina of Holland and other rul-
erS.
The return of Leopold is OPP
posed by the Socialists, commun-
lists and most liberals. The Social
Christians promise that if they
form the government they will
hold an early referendum on the
royal issue. Voting will take
place Sunday, and women will
cast their ballots for the first time
in Belgium. Voting is compulsory.
Paul-Henri Spaak, premier and
minister Of foreign affairs is up
for reelection.
Syria is holding a rubber stamp
election today-there is only one
presidential candidate on the bal
lot. He is Col. Husni Zayim, mill
tary governor of the country since
he ousted the previous regime last

Council Board
Hears Report

Executive Board of the Com
munity Council met in a special
session Wednesday evening to
hear a report from Raphael
Brandes, president, who just re-
turned from the east where he
attended the emergency meeting
last month of the United Jewish
Appeal in Washington.
Leading Israeli personalities
were there, including Audrey
Eban, Israel representative to the
UN, Nahum Goldman, William
Rosenwald, and others. Mr.. Bran
des was on the important Res
olutions Committee. Delegates at
tending numbered 600.
They were told of the pitiful
conditions surrounding the TO-
900 refugees still in reception
centers, housed in miserable tents.
Lack of money is the primary
cause for the now slow absorption
of them into the country's econ
omy. Never have such strong
pleas, literally begging for money,
been heard before. Too many
communities are lax and COM
placent about their raising money
for UJA, delegates were told.
Local CJA
Communities everywhere were
urged to revitalize and hold sup
Elementary campaigns. Last week
the local executive committee au-
thorized the sending of an ad-
ditional $4,000 to UJA, making
the total sent thus far $53, 900.
DR.. Leonard Weiner, CJA chair
man, again beseeches those who
have outstanding pledges to pay
them now. About $4,000 is still
outstanding, a large sum for the
9th month after the campaign
started. The more money collect
ed, the more that can be sent
to Israel, he reminds contributors.

When The Wise
Man Returned Home

Gan Untold Tale of the Nativity
BY Harry Levette For AMP
The Three Wise Men returned to
their own lands
From far off Bethlehem, where
following
The Star, they'd journeyed, rich
gifts in their hands
And worshipped, listening to the
angels sing.
To Balthasar the dark Wise Man
there came
The elders of his council, rapt to
hear
What had transpired; what was
this new Kings name?
What will the future bring? He
said draw near"
1.-THE Babe will be named Jesus,
Son Of God
But it will be fully twenty cen
turtles more
Before man rising from the debased
500
Begins to accept Him in fullest
score"
There will be wars and lust and
racial hate;
Mans wisdom will seek new means
to destroy.
But peace will come before it is too
late
Through brotherhood will dawn
eternal joy.
