kARLUk FISH
 CASE SETTLED


 FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Sept 22.- R-After travelling to the U. s. Su- prenne Court and back, a Kodiak Island fishing case was finally set- tied this week. It took three years of wrangling.
 Judge Harry A. Pratt signed a decree permanently enjoining the Department of the Interiors Fish and Wildlife Service from interfer- ing with fishing operations of non- natives in the waters off the Kar- lux Indian Reservation on Kodiak Island.
 The case started originally be- fore Judge Pratt in 1946, went through the Circuit Court of Ap- peals in San Francisco, thence to the Supreme Court in Washington, D. C., and then back here.
 U. S. Dist. Atty. Harry o. Ar end argued the case for the gov- ernment. Seattle fishery interests were represented by w. C.. Arnold and Edward F. Medley.

SUBSIDY TO GOLD MINES IN CANADA
 TO BE CONTINUED

OTTAWA, Sept. 22 = tR = Re- sources Minister Colin Gibson an nonced today the government will continue it's subsidy assistance to gold mines until the end of 1949 despite devaluation of the Canadian dollar.
 In 1850, he told the House of Commons, the aid will be reduced by $3.50 an ounce, the amount of the increase in price caused by devaluation.
 Gibson said the government has decided against the argument that the gold mining assistance acts aid to mines. based on production, should be eliminated now that de- valuation has raised the price from $35 to $38.5O an ounce The average bonus was around $3.50 an ounce, with some mines getting only 50 cents and some the maximum ot $16 an ounce in subsidy
 The act had originally been put into effect for three years, he said, and some mines had based produc- ton on this policy and it would Ice unfair" to them to discontinue it
 The subsidy scheme runs out at the end of 1850.

NEW TROUBLE IS
 CONFRONTING US.
 OVER CHINA CASE
By JOHN M. H1GHTowER

WASHINGTON, Sept. 22-tR- The formation of Communist government in China brought bit closer today the time when the United States must decide whether to recognize such a regime.
 At the moment, however, Ameri- can officials say that the issue of recognition is not raised by the announcement of the new govern ment made in Peiping yesterday by Communist leader Mao Tze-tung.
 What is expected is that when the Communists have completed their governments organization they will make a bid to establish formal diplomatic relations and Russia or one of it's satellite coun- tries will be the first to accept and agree to open embassies at the Communist capital.
 The recognition issue is under stood to have seen discussed here last week by Secretary of State Acheson, British Foreign Minister Bevin and French Foreign Minister Schuman during their review of the whole Far Eastern situation.
 They agreed then that they would discuss the possibility of taking parallel actions when the Chinese Communists assert their claim to be recognized.
 Basic American policy on recog- hilton makes three requirements of a government seeking formal re- lations with the United States. It must be a regular operating gov ernment, must have effective con- trol of it's territory and must agree to assume it's country's interna- tional obligations.

PARLIAMENT E CALLED BACK TO
 DEBATE CRISIS
DevaIuation of Pound 10 Be Discussed : Also
 General Election

LONDON, Sept. 22-iR-Primt Minister Attlee's cabinet agreed to- day to call Parliament back from it's vacation next Tuesday to de- bate devaluation of the pound.
 Meanwhile, speculation increased that devaluation may compel Attlee to call a general election soon. One well-informed pro-labor informant sad the chance of an early cleo tion now seemed about 50-50.
 Labor rank and file remained restless and fearful of higher living costs to come from deyaluation.
 But railway workers, lowing to union discipline, spurned call for a paralyzing showdown strike on London subways this morning They instead were awaiting devalu- ation developments.
 A government source confirmed the cabinets decision to recall Par lament for an emergency session Neither House normally would re- convene until Oct. 18.
 CHURCHILL'S URGE
 Conservative Winston Churchill Liberal Leader Clement Davies and the Communist Party all had de- manded an earlier meeting to con- slider devaluation.
 Meanwhile the list of nations slashing the value of the money rose to 25. Hashemite Jordan cut it's pound in line with the British de- valuation today. Luxembourg and Portugal did the same yesterday.
 In Paris, high American off cial predicted that France, Italy and Belgium will soon make compact to exchange their currencies freely with each other as a move to meet British trade competition.
 ATTLEE CAUSED SLASH
 Meanwhile government sources .'leaked" the word that it was Attlee himself and not Sir Stafford Cripps, Chancellor of the Ex- chequer, who had decided on de- valuation.
 Attlee, if he shoulders the re- sponsibility for an unpopular pro gram of rising living costs, can have far tetter chance than Cripps of selling the people on a still deeper step into austerity.
 While Britain faced growing un- rest, France too was threatened with strikes growing out of a de- valuation.
 Albert Bouzanquet, Secretary of the Non-C Communist Force Ouvrier (Workers Force) said "insurrec- tional strikes" may break out with in a month unless the government approves pay raises.
 Hungry stomachs can't wait he declared.

STRIKE OF
 STEEL MEN
 I5puT OFF
Murray's CI0 Union Ae- eepk Humans Plea
 WdIkout Is Delayed

PITTSBURGH, Sept. 22-lR- Philip Murrays CIO United Steel workers today put off for another week the nationwide steel strike set for Saturday midnight
 The million-member unions policy making committee joined in- dustry in accepting President Tru- mans plea for extension of the strike truce until 12:0l am. Satur- day, October l, to permit renewed contract talks.
 The action came as wildcat work CTS shut down two Pittsburgh steel plants and idled 2,400 workers. Tickets carried signs demanding "Strike-Not More Extension" and "Strike-Free Pensions"
 Murray and the industry dead locked on acceptance of a Presi- dential boards peace recommenda- tions that the steelworkers get company financed insurance and pensions. The union accepted. h. dustry objected to footing the lill and refused to be bound by the re- port without bargaining. They've been feuding since.
 MT. Truman intervened to slave off the weekend strike. In addition to truce extension, he called for di- rect bargaining and early settle ment.
 Murray announced the union wage policy committee approval of the extension. He said:
 "The only thing I have to add is that we are contracting the various companies and we hope to meet with the GUS. SteeD Corporation tomorrow"
 The action was taken in a reso- lution unanimously adopted by the committee.
 Two Pittsburgh district plants were closed by work stoppages. One company official blamed the men of being "jittery over the whole situation in the steel industry Union officials said the men were out without union authorization.
 Employees reporting for work at the Universal Cyclops steel plant milled around confusedly in the ra,n-and then went home.

PATHETIC AID PLEA
 BY CHINA
U. N. Assembly Delegate Says Russia Directing
 Chinese Commies
(By Max Harrelson)

NEW YORK, Sept. 22-lR-China called on the United Nations As sembly today to act quickly to pre- vent Communism from engulfing China and the entire Far East. For the first time, China also charged that Russia was directing the Chinese Communists.
 China's chief delegate, Dr. T. F. Tsiang, told the 59 national dele. gations that the North Atlantic pact had halted the flow of Com munism across Europe, but there was no such barrier in the East.
 The Chinese Communist party" he said, is an integral part of the international Communist movement It is as fanatical as Communists elsewhere. Its propaganda is all ways in tune with Moscow propa- ganda. Its action is always in step with Moscow's action"
 C0mmie Republic
 Tsiang spoke less than "A hours after the Chinese Communists pro- claimed at Peiping the establish ment of a Communist Peoples Re- public of China.
 Tsiang devoted almost his entire speech to an attack on Commun- ism. Then he made his appeal for help.
 He asserted the Soviet Union al- ready had obtained more in Man. churia than czarist Russia ever tried to seize. He added:
 Tn addition. the Soviet Union, through the Chinese Communist party, has an instrument and lever with which to undermine the independence and integrity of Chi na and the peace of the Far East"
 Dr. Tsiang represented the sec- ond of the Big Five Powers-each with veto power in the Security Council-to present a statement on policy U. s. Secretary of State Dean Acheson did not mention Chi na when he presented the United States views in the debate.
 There was more than usual in- terest in what Andrei Vishinsky, Foreign Minister of the Soviet Union, would tell what Soviet Rus sia thinks about today's world prob lems. He may speak late today or tomorrow.

INVESTIGATION
 OF TRADE UNION
 pRACTI(E5 OFF

WASHINGTON. Sept. 22-R- Rep. Jacobs tD-InO said today House Labor Committee investiga- tion of trade union practices was called off because of heat" brought by the International Pressmens Union on Chairman Lesinski tD- MichD.
 Jacobs was chairman of an in- yest.gating subcommittee. Lesinski, as chairman of the full committee, abolished it and other subcommit- tees last month.
 One subject of the suscommittee' inquiry into union democracy was the tangled financial affairs of the late George Berry, President of the AFL Pressmens Union.
 Heat was put on by the Press- mems Union to dissolve the subcom- mittee, and Lesinski couldn't stand the heat" Jacobs told a reporter.
