 GIVEN PROMOTION
Rear Admiral 0'NeiII 10 Be Commdndant dt Wdsh-
 ington Headquarters

Rear Admiral Merlin O'Neill now in Juneau on an inspection trip, has been nominated by the Presi- dent to be Commandant of the US. Coast Guard at headquarters in Washington, DC, on December 31, succeeding Admiral Joseph F. Far ley, who is retiring. He will have the rank of Vice Admiral.
 Rear Admiral O'Neill was born in North Kenova, Ohio, October 30, 1898. He attended school and graduated from the Morgan City, La, highe school in 1916, took pre- liminary Coast Guard Academy en- trance examinations and was ap- pointed a cadet in July, 1918. He received a commission as an ensign in March, 1921.
 Rear Admiral ONeill has been aboard the Haida and Algonquin, both wellknown in Alaskan waters, has been on destroyers and was commanding officer of the U.S.S. Leonard Wood, an assault trans port and served in this capacity until May, 1944. He received the Legion of Merit while on the Wood during the amphibious invasion ot Sicily. The Leonard Wood recently was awarded the Navy Unit Com mendation for operations from 1922 to 1945.
 Returning to shore duty in May, 1914, he served for a short period in the District Coast Guard Office, Fifth Naval District, Norfolk, Vir- ginia, and in July, was designated commanding officer. of the Coast Guard amphibious training unit at Camp Lejeune, New River, North Carolina.

| the United States is at that mo- ment at war by treaty obligation
 It is true, as MT. Nadell says that no such events might happen It is also true that any or all three of them could happen and could happen simultaneously. What is our responsibility?
 Some Navy and some Army ex- perts believe that should war occur between the United States and Soviet Russia, it will be fought along classical lines, principally in Europe and on land Our Air Force believes that such a conflict will introduce the novel logistics of a polar war, the enemy flying across the North Pole on short line from Moscow to Detroit, let us say. So far as the flying and fueling capacity of planes is concerned, this is technically possible for 10th sides, I am told by specialists.
 Now here is disagreement con- corning logistics which has shaken the Pentagon, skilled men differ ing on probabilities. Meanwhile, the citizen must ask: Suppose the Air Force is right and we have no polar defense, no Alaskans defens- es. no defense of such cities as Minneapolis and Detroit?
 I, who have lived for many years in China and Japan, and who coula claim warm and continued friend ship with many of the men involv- ed in Pearl Harbor, could never believe, up to the actual fact, that Japan would ever attack the Unit. ed States. But it did happen at Pearl Harbor. Whatever the reason and the cause, it did happen.
 As MT. Nadell raises the question of moral responsibility, I shall never again be guilty of making mistake of believing that count try like ours dares to be inadequat- ely defensible even for a moment. It is possible to make a mistake once; it is a crime to make the same mistake a second time.

CHRISTMAS SEAL SALE CAMPAIGN
 UNDERWAY TODAY

The Kiwanis Club, under the chairmanship of Dr. Henry Harris started canvassing the business concerns of Juneau today with Christmas Seals and bonds. This is the third year the Kiwanians have accepted this responsibility, the sixteenth Christmas Seal Sale in Alaska, the forty-second Seal Sale in the United States conducted by the National Tuberculosis Associa- tion.
 The Most Rev. Francis D. Glee- son, S.J., DID. is the Seal sale Chairman for the Territory wide campaign. His letter of solicitation was prepared last July in order that it might reach all the distant points in Alaska, accompanied by a supply of Seals and other mater ials, in time for use on Christmas mail The Christmas Seal letter states that 400 new cases of tuber- culosis were discovered in the Ter ritory last year
 This year, due to the mass K ray campaigns carried on last sum- mer by the staff of the Alaska De- partment of Health on the medical vessels, Hygiene, Health and Yukon Health, and the Highway Mobile Unit together with other portable X-ray equipment, the number of known cases of active tuberculosis on the register has more than doubled. There are now 5495 diag messed cases of tuberculosis in the files of the Alaska Department of Health. The available beds for hos pitalization of this great group of people ill with a contagious disease remain under 400, with only 200 more sure beds in sight in the near future.
 The money collected from the sale of Christmas Seals will be us- ed to promote the. health of the, people Of Alaska -.ii Ft't 2
 AS soon as the Kiwanis Club has completed their canvass of the busi- ness houses the Christmas seals will be mailed to individual givers in the residence districts. "The staff of the Alaska Tuberculosis As sociation is trying to prevent any duplication in their mailing list" said Mrs. Frances L. Paul, Ex- ecutive Secretary of the ATA to- day. But if we do make mistake we hope you will tell us about it so we can correct our mailing list
 KiWanians officially started their rounds this morning, the member ship divided in districts from one to ten, as follows: Gene Vuille; Ed Shaffer and Henry Leege; John E. Hummer and C.. G. Brown Dr. D. D. Marquardt and pr. John Montgomery; Fred Dunn and Clar- en Stevenson; Dr. John H. Cle- meats,- Stanley sBaskin and, Bob Shellenbargers E. K. Guerin and Chester Zimmerman; Neil Moore and Archie Betts; Don Burrus and Jack. Sturtevant; John W. Griffin.

THESE DAY. s

 GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY
OSTRICH SECURITY

Aaron Nadell, of Brooklyn, writ es an open letter to me, the gist of which is:
 Are you infallible, or could you be wrong? Now suppose that you are wrong, and that war is not in vitable-except insofar as you help make it so to the limit of your power by planting such an idea in peoples heads don't you take a pretty heavy responsibility on your conscience, MT. Sokolsky?
 "As a matter of fact and re- cord you are wrong: No war is ever inevitable until after it has started. Circumstances change, lead CTS die and are replaced by others, governments shift their policies. empires decay, revolutionists tame down, new states rise to alter bal ances of power. But there is one certain way to make any war in evitable, and that is to plant ir peoples minds the idea it is"
 And yet, how much greater must be everyone's responsibility if this country were to be attacked, sud denly, in a polar war, the enemy employing atomic bombs, biologic and chemical warfare, while we. depending upon our industrial cap acity and ability, required IS months to 'get ready?
 Let us say that war with Soviet Russia is not inevitable. Let us say rather that nothing is inev- itable. Let us admit that what MT. NadeH says is wholly true. Yet, it might be just the opposite.
 Let us suppose that an episode occurs between Yugoslavia and Hungary. This may be localized or it may raise the question of the Peril of Italy. That involves the intention of Soviet Russia. Let us suppose that the force sent against Yugoslavia is so large as to give the strategic index to an invasion of Italy. That country is an im- portant element in American de- fensive strategy The United States would go to the defense of Italy and therefore of Yugoslavia. So we are in a war.
 Or, let us say that Soviet China marches into southern Korea below the 38th parallel. That means that General MacArthur's position in Japan is imperiled and the defenses of Alaska are endangered The Un- ted States would have to mike an immediate decision, involving not days or even hours but min utes whether it would withdraw or defend Japan. Unquestionably such decision has already been made.
 Or, suppose Russia puts huge force into Eastern Germany and Soviet Germany breaks through to the Rhine. That immediately en- dangers France, Belgium, Holland, and the Scandinavian countries. Under the North Atlantic Alliance,

SOUTH SAINT PAUL
MARKET REVIEW

Arrivals of long-fed cattle
tapered off, and COW supplies
showed a marked increase as
this weeks livestock trade got
underway at South st. Paul's
public livestock market. From
the price standpoint, cattle
values slipped, while hogs and
lambs scored price increases.
Cows and bulls took the
brunt of the bearish pressure
in the cattle trade, while
there were signs of strength
of long-fed steers and heifers.
Fed cattle topped at $27.00 as
the week started, with $17.50 as
the top cow price on dry, wes-
tern fed kinds. Both beef and
sausage bulls maintained at
$17.50 top, while q cents con-
tinued as the best price on Sc
lected vealers.
Corn-belt cattle feeders are
showing more interest in re-
placements at South st. Paul.
Mondays trade saw fleshy 900
pound feeders at $21.00, 718
pound yearling steers at $1,000
and 928 pound two year oldS
at % cents a pound. 1t appears
that the western movement is
going to run four to six weeks
ahead of the marketing season.
July shipments from the range
area to South Saint Paul, more
than doubled receipts of a year
ago. 49,. -
! Considerable interest has
centered around the gradual
improvement in porker prices.
The past two weeks have seen
light butchers advance at
least $1.00, with sows a full
$500 higher after 10 days of
trade. Weighty kinds have
scored greater gains than light
weight hogs, with the general
price spreads much narrower.
With all interests paying a
$3.50 top on lightweight but
cheers, Mondays opening trade
saw choice light sows move up
wards to a $19.75 top.
Washington shipments have
increased both quality and
quantity of supplies in the
sheep and lamb division at
South Saint Paul. Washington
Spring lambs have been selling
up to $24.50, with "a pound
feeding lambs around % cents
pound. Ewes have registered
little price change in recent
weeks, holding around $3.50 on
the top side. -.
