velop the vast, untapped resources of Minas Geraes, they can quickly expand their economy to meet their commercial debts Also, that such a loan fits squarely with President Truman's Point Four" program.
 But the EXport-Import Bank is refusing to consider this proposal until Brazil agrees to take the $200, 100000 loan.
 In Rio De Janeiro, this has led to bitter feeling Cries of Yankee imperialism, dollar diplomacy, and Uncle Shylock" have been tossed around. In Washington, Am bassador Nabuco is more polite and discreet. But no bones are being made of the contention that a group of New York bankers and export firms are behind the insis- tence on the big loan.
 Specifically. it is claimed that a Commerce and Industry Associa- ton of New York has pressured the Export t-Import Bank into de- manding that Brazil sign up for the s20o,000,000 in order to pay off its commercial debts.
 The Brazilians are limiting Pres ident Dutra may take the issue d. rectly to President Truman.
 NOTE-Minas Geraes means general mines" or abundant min erals The state is the richest in Brazil; also the most powerful poll tically, owing to it's great wealth. The proposed development loan has been under consideration for some time. Elaborate scientific and econ cmic studies have been submitted and special envoy. Dr. Barbosa Mello, was sent to Washington to work with Ambassador Nabuco to negotiate the loan.
 Adding fuel to the situation is the fact that Milton Campos, the governor of Minas Geraes, is a strong possibility as Dutra's sue cessor next year. Campos is wroth over what he considers deliberate U s. refusal to aid the development of his state

pEWABI( MINING
 pR0SpECT0R BACK
 FROM WHITE RIVER

First man to return to Juneau from the Pewabic Mining Syndi- cate's summer copper explorations in the White River area is wiry Lynn Winters.
 The copper showing is very good" Winters said today with tons of placer copper showing on top of the bedrock"
 The company expects to stake in the ne.ghborhood of 100 claims, !" he said. Some of the boys plan to stay on until about December l.
 Describing the trip into the upper White River Valley site of the cop per showings. Winters said that after leaving here June 8 they drove up Haines Highway to the Alcan and then on to Dry Creek. There they struck out into 76 miles of wilderness, a trek which took from June 19 to July 6.
 The same trip on his way out took only days by weasel, Winters said.
 Our cat Logged down in the muskeg a few feet off the highway" Winters said, but the weasel did the trick. She stayed firm on the ground going around slopes with the pitch of a house roof"
 Its big country with plenty of game" he said. We spotted con- siderable caribou and mountain sheep but few moose. They say that two years ago the game was killed by the thousands when weather got down to 30 below zero. Fish ing was good. We caught some 15 to Is pound lake trout"
 Only man to be seen during the summer by the Pewabik men was Howard Fowler, associate mining engineer of the Territorial Bureau of Mines, who was on two-month field trip.
 Fred Wann, former Bureau ot Mines engineer, is president of the mining syndicate which organized here last spring for the summers work.

service the trade and assuming the necessary hull insurance risks, the required 88 per cent increase could be reduced to increase of approximately 35 per cent The carriers accordingly, filed tariffs fleeting this increase.
 The Interim Plan was specifically rate subsidy to the Territory because it eliminated major portion the needed increase The carriers received no cash in hand" Their decreased operating ex- penses resulting from the Plan reflected directly and proportionately in their tariff schedule
 Under the Plan company profits were limited to 10 per cent before taxes capital employed in the business vessels plus allowance if earned for each privately owned vessel Additional earnings if any were to be paid the government for their of-pocket expenses and any balance divided 75 per cent the government and 25 per cent to the oper ator.
 Since the conclusion of the Interim Plan July l. 194S all companies are on their own. The Alaska Steamship Company according to it's published port for the first three months of 949 showed loss of s459.643.e7
 The history of the Alaska Steamship Company and its part in the history of Alaskan shipping, along with the answers to almost any question one could ask in connection with Alaska shipping is contained in Admiral Zeusler's letter
 We suggest that anyone interested telephone or write to Henry Green Alaska Line agent, Juneau, for a copy of MT zeuslers letter about the Interim Plan.
 One can't read the letter, and knowing the story of the Alaska Steam, believe the paragraph that sets forth the companys three objectives in serving Alaska:
 l. To provide the best freight and passenger service possible at rates that will promote Territorial growth and prosperity.
 9 To encourage industrial development in Alaska.
 B. To be a force for civic good within it's sphere of activity.
 "The company believes that industrial develop ment of the Territory create the payrolls sary to support large population Admiral zeuslers letter concludes. Tt also provide return cargo for vessels which now, except for short period dur ing each summer return empty after each trip to Alaska Because know that with this growth Aaskas shipping will longer be "one way street" We are seriously interested in giving every announcement within our ability to aid in the de- veopment of new manufacturing and processing plants within the Territory"
 That and the statement that we constantly striving improve the quality and efficiency of our service with the goal of holding rates to minimum which will offer the greatest possible value and still permit useful operation of vesels' concludes the letter and gives the answer to the final question what is the company's attitude toward the future?"
 This company, the remaining established line of more than sixty different companies that have come and gone since 1867 looks toward Alaskas future.

GUIDED MISSILES
 BEING DEVELOPED: POWERFUL WEAPON

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.-tR- The United States is developing guided missiles which would both bring down enemy planes and enable American bombers to shoot down attacking fighters.
 pr. Karl Compton, chairman of the Defense Departments research and development board, disclosed the new weapons last night He described as exceedingly im- portant" the air-to-air missile which a B-36 could use against speedy jet fighters. He said this weapon may well become the prin- cipal artillery of JUG combat"
 In a radio broadcast with Atomic Energy Commissioner Sumner Pike, Compton listed four types of guided missiles on which US. scien- tists are at work.
 Besides the plane-carried missile, he noted a "surface-to-surface" weapon which could be used as long range artillery. Development of this weapon lis already we'll ad- vanced for those of few hundred miles range" he said.
 The anti-aircraft, or surface to-surface" missiles Compton said, bid fair to become the effective counter measure" from the ground against swift attacking planes.
 There also is an "air-to-Surface" model, some types of which saw action in World War II.

The Postmaster General chal-
lenged critics TO show how the
Post Once Department can meet
existing deficits-amounting to .
half billion dollars . year-with-
out increasing revenues. He would
like to increase everything but

Mr.. Donaldson said there has

The publisher is no different

Mr.. Donaldson testified before

In rebuttal against claims that the
proposed increases in second-class

to 600 per cent and put many
newspapers and magazines out Of

His contention drew sharp criti-
cism from Republican members Of
the committee. particularly Rep

General said the taxpayers should
not be forced to make up deficits
incurred In handling second class

Suppose the readers do have to
pay more for the publications-I
