Cooperative Regional
Conference Scheduled
Will BE Held This Evening At
Local Hotel

a warning on declining business
activity and farm income is being
posted for local board members Of
Southern States Cooperative attend
ing an annual mid-winter regional
conference this evening, March II, at
the William-James Hotel, Oakland.
"While there is no fear of any deep
depression in the near future, the
danger signals are out and it is neces-
saly that we as individuals and as an
organization adjust our operations to
take into account these changing con-
ditions." That statement was made in
a report on Southern States for the
first half of the fiscal year, by w. M.
Corwin Of Richmond, Va, director of
information and publications service
for the Cooperative.
Attending the conference will be
representatives from Terra Alta, Par
sons, Petersburg, Davis and Mason
town, w. Va, Grantsvlle Kitzmiller,
Accident, Friendsville and Oakland.
DR.. c. F. McClintic, williamsburg,
W. Va, member of the Cooperative
Board of Directors, will preside.
Corwin will present this picture of
the farm supply outlook for spring.
Feed-Record 1948 grain crops as
sure plentiful supply; feed prices
have dropped approximately $25 per
ton during the last ~ months and
prospects are good for favorable feed
ing ratios.
With an extreme short
age of both solid and liquid nitrogen,
it may not always be possible to pro-
vide patrons with what they want,
when they want it and where they
want it.
Seed-With the exception of al
falfa, timothy and red top, the ma
tional supply of legumes and grasses
should be ample for spring. Although
the supply of Kansas alfalfa is short,
Utah and Oklahoma Approved are
equally as good.
Petroleum-S Supply plentiful. Case
line may be tight next summer if
business conditions are good enough
to keep gasoline consumption at high
level.
Other Supplies-With the exception
of some steel products, miscellaneous
farm supplies are available in ade-
quate quantities.

 In the light of more recent developments, no one can say that members of the present Democratc- controlled Legislature haven't shown progress Ihey more than quadrupled the ante.
 Regarding Federal Judge George w. Foltas oe- cison declaring the Special Session of the Alaska Territorial Legislature invalid the Anchorage News says:
 It was surprise to learn that the special session of the Legislature was invalidstaunch ant-Governor people of Alaska could very well say T cold you TO!
 The Special Session, held two weeks ln advance oi the regular session. has turned out many predicted it would when Acting Governor Lew Williams called the session in behalf of his boss last December
 It was get-together at taxpayers expense of the Alaska Tammany boys who had planned to make an air-tight case of the Gruenng program and shove it through without opposition.
 Fortunately there some men elected to the episature who still believed in service to the people rather than to political machine and an otherwise debace avoided
 It was this group that should get credit for saving face for Alaska by insisting re-enactment of i'm portant pieces of legislation at the regular session.

SkEiES ARE LEAVING JUNEAU; WILL MAKE
 HOME IN PARADISE

Plans to change their residence from Juneau to Paradise, Califor- nit, were made known today by Mir. and Mrs. Lintner Skeie.
 The Skeies, who consider Ju- neau more home than their native Norway and Sweden, recently sold their house on 18th Street to John Satire, Jr., and MT. Skeie is in the process of selling The Watch Shop, his business at 237 Front Street.
 A registered nurse and masseuse who was graduated from nursing school in Denmark, Mrs. Skeie left her native Sweden in 1928, the same year that MT. Skeie left Nor way for Juneau. The Skeies were married in Juneau on Christmas Day, 1886, the year that Mrs. Skeie came to Alaska.
 In Paradise. the Skeies have pur- chased property and Mrs. Skeie, who is leaving Juneau aboard the Aleutian today, will supervise the building of their home which they plan to have include MT. Skeie's watch shop and quarters fer Mrs. Skeie's massage business.
 After remaining in Juneau for lbout two months to close out his interests here, MT. Skeie plans to go south, pick up a new Dodge and drive to California with his wife, who will meet him in Seattle.
 Both the Sheles have been active in affairs of the Seventh-day Ad-
 enlist Church. They have express ed their regret at leaving Juneau and their many friends here already are locking forward to the time they will return to visit in Alaska.
 Paradise, small town near Chi co, is in the mountains at an eleva- tion of 1900 feet, and the pins for est surrounding it reminds them of Alaska.

took a plane for Montevideo to consult President Luis Battle Ber- res regarding his controversial guest. Meanwhile, the Chamber of Deputies, having voted on strict majority minority basis-107-42-to threw Rodriguez out, approved by the same margin motion to in- struct the Attorney General to in stitute criminal libel proceedings against the ex-deputy.
 Thereupon the argentine Foreign Ministry advised the Uruguayan Embassy that Rodriguez Araya was subject to arrest and consequently mot entitled to asylum" Less than an hour later, however, word came from Montevideo that Uruguayan President Battle would insist on a safe conduct for the political refu- gee.
 Seeing their bluff called, the tough talking Peronistas hastily backed down. A communique issu- ed by the Foreign Ministry called the whole thing "misundertand- ing" said that Rodriguez Araya could remain in Argentina or leave, as a free man." The latter promptly made his choice and flew to Montevideo.
 The government-owned press next morning ridiculed the entire affair as a comic opera Evitas per- sonal mouthpiece, 'Democracia, ' commented:
 Dramatic critics would have a hard time deciding whether Rodri- guez Araya or Uruguayan Ambass- ador MacEachen is the better com edian."
 More impartial observers inclin- ed toward the opinion that the laugh, if any, was strictly on Peron & Go. The total implications ot this new affront to democratic pro- cedure, however, tended to over shadow it's humorous side.

Two recent developments in the Territory have brought editorial comment by the Fairbanks News Miner and the Anchorage News The Empire is re- printing them without comment.
 On the freezing of certain Territorial funds, the News Miner says:
 The Territorial Board of Administration has froz- en 9S appropriations voted at the last session of the Legislature.
 This action the result of a grave financial crisis confronting the Gruening administration.
 The Territorys deficit at the end of May was the worst history Present signs are that it will not get appreciably smaller in the period which lies inn mediately ahead.

LATIN AMERICA FACES SLUMP
 l of

The continued QOWnWard trend of prices on the U. s. raw materials and commodities markets is making things tough for the good-neighbor policy throughout Latin America.
 The recent 7-cent drop in the price of copper alone struck ter rife blow to the national economy of Chile, Peru and Mexico On June l5, the Anaconda Copper Co.'S two subsidiaries in Chile announc- ed an immediate one-third cut in operations.
 Meanwhile. two bills have been introduced in the U. s. Congress, both sponsored by domestic copper interests; one to re-establish the pre-war price of 14-cents per pound for Chilean copper; the other to re- store the 2-cents-a-pound tax on all copper imports.
 Approval of these measures will effectively paralyze copper produc- tion in Latin America" said a re- cent Santiago newspaper editorial, flor world economic conditions to- day make it impossible for any in- dustry to operate on pre-war norms and returns.
 Perhaps the result is what cer- tain United States copper interests seek. However, it is difficult to comprehend why the government of that country should fail to dis courage such tactics. In case of an- other war, the United States will again have sudden need of greatly increased copper supplies-and this time there may be no mining indus try left here to stimulate"
 The cacao (cocoa beam situation also is creating alarm, and even near panic. Despite continued strong demand for this product in the U. S., it's wholesale market price has slumped l6 per cent in the past month.
 Brazilian cacao interests recently sold 50,000 sacks of the bean in New York at 16.5 cents per pound against the 203 cents paid for the last previous imports. early in May Result of this 19 per cent slash has been consternation among cacao producers in Ecuador. the country which ships more of this crop than

pERON EXPELS OPPONENTS

The inside story of how the lead- CT of President Perons opposition party was kicked out of the Argen- tine Congress would be quite funny if it didn't represent another body blow at democracy in the Americas
 Last July, Peron's stooges in the Argentine Chamber of Deputies, who have two-third majority, vot- ed to expel radical party leader Ernesto Sammartino on the grounds that he had "defamed" the dictator. With his parliamentary immunity removed, Sammartino was then chased by the federal cops-but es- capped to Uruguay, where he has been ever since.
 Last month the second opposition leader was given the bum's rush. This time Sammartinos successor, Agustin Rodriguez Araya, was ex- pelled from Congress on instructions from Dona Evita Person who more and more is becoming the real boss of Argentine politics.
 Like Sammartino, Rodriguez Ara va never hestitated to name names, facts and figures when attacking the administration on the Chamber floor. Nevertheless, Person himself did not favor any direct action against Araya, figuring that the persecution of Sammartino may have been partly responsible for a sharp upturn in radical votes dur ing the recent provincial elections.
 But no such strategic considera- tions bothered Sonora Peron. She had been out to get Rodriguez Ara va for two years, ever since he pub licly lampooned some of the first lady's more flamboyant antics while touring Europe in 1947. In fact, the then leader of Perons majority in Congress lost his job at that time for failing to comply with Eva's deman, cabled from Italy, to "get rid of Rodriguez before I re- turn"
 Last June 4, anniversary of the 1943 military coup which brought Peron to power, the government is- sued some pious announcements about freedom and democracy Next day, on the floor of the Chamber, Rodriguez laid into these declarations with bitter sarcasm.
