Walter Resolution
Talks Delayed

WASHINGTON. d. C. July Il
(ADC)-The House Senate confer
ence on the Walter resolution pro-
badly cannot meet until late this
week because of the abrupt depar-
ture from Washington of two con-

Conference committee staff mem

At the same time. il was pointed
out the Korean situation is having
an upsetting effect upon all legis-

ally true of legislation involving
the Orient Because Korea is in
directly involved i'm the Walter re-
solution, the joint conference will
probably move slowly before TAX
ing final action on reporting out
bill accepted by both Houses.
Meanwhile, there is a report cir
culating here that an attempt will
be made in the conference to tack on
certain phases of the McCarran ON
nibus bill to the Walter resolution,
especially those tightening control
over aliens in, or immigrating to, the
United States. But House conferees
are expected to oppose such a move
as not being germane to the resolu-

McCARRAN BILL
WOULD ASSIST
BRIDES CASES

WASHINGTON. d. c.. July II
(ADCD - Approximately twice as
many japanese wives and children
would be Immediately affected by
the McCarran Brides bill IS 1859
than under the previous Gil Brides
Act. the JACL Ado learned today
In report accompanying the
bill. approved unanimously last
week by the Senate Judiciary Com
mittee, ii was pointed out that
some $40 japanese wives and
children came i'm under the old
act, while at the present time there
are approximately $50 japanese
wives and alien minor children of
serviccmen in Japan who would
become admissible under the new
law.
The Judiciary report said that
these wives and alien minor child
rem will be unable to accompany the
citizen husband and father upon his
return to the United States unless
the racial bar is removed.
"A number sof these Servicemen
have already returned but were OBJ
liged to leave their wives and child
rem in Japan. Also a great many of
the citizen servicemen involved are
themselves of japanese descent" the
report continued.
Although there are pending in
the Committee on the Judiciary bills
which would remove completely the
racial bar to immigration and natu"
ralization, such bills are still being
studied in connection with revision
of the entire immigration and nat
uralzation laws. In order to allevl-
ate the situation and to avoid the
necessity of considering a substantial
number of private bills. the commit
tee feels that the racial bar should
promptly be removed in this limited
type case.
ut should be pointed out that
although the bill would permit the
entry of limited group of racially
ineligible spouses and minor child
rem, it does not remove the racial
bar to naturalization at this time"
The McCarran Brides bill would
make the alien wives and children
OF American servicemen and vetef..
ans eligible to enter the United
States as nonquota immigrants. IL
would apply to all existing marriages,

THE COUNCIL AND THE POWER AUTHORITY

LII OOOfS1L AMI NE FOWEh AUTHORITY @ 4
SOMETHING SHOULD be done, and Quickly, about
the electric rates, and the situation surrounding the Power
Authority. Just what the hold up is, no one knows. When the
Authority was created by ordinance, hopes ran high, there
was optimism on every side, and once and for all it was
thought that a public utility control body had come into be-
ing which would offer to the consuming public efficient cleo
hical energy, preferably with alternating current, and at
rates which would make it possible for even more. extensive
use by a larger share of the population. AS Of this time, sorry
to say, no such result can be. reported. AT one time the Saint
Croix Power authority seemed to start off on the right foot,
and due credit was given. The chairman Of that body took
his jobsconscientiously and put in many long hours and much
energy, but even at that the condition seemed not to have
improved as expected. 3
THEN THERE is the question of industrial use of cleo
trical energy. At present those who use large quantities seem
to be penaized for SO doing. Everywhere, due consideration
is given quantityuse and purchase of materials, and advanced
business firms make sure that there is the appropriate reduc-
ton for quantity use or purchase. However, not 50 with the
use Of electrical energy in St. Croix, and this simply does not
make sense.
WHEN THE Council petitioned the St. Croix Power
Authority for reduced rates and improved conditions general
y, a courtesy was being paid the Authority. The Council IS
not poweress to act. While it is true that the Power Autho-
rity is fairly independent to carry on its work, yet the legis-
lattre can, through appropriate ordinances and bills, adjust
the functions and limit the powers Of the Authority. This IS
the American and democratic way Of doing things. II would
be unfortunate if any member Of the Council could dictate,
as his whims toldhim, how the Power Authority should func-
ton. But this does not mean that the Council cannot exer-
else its legislative powers when and under circumstances
which justify such use.
WHAT WOULD be most discreet is a review by the
Authority Of its work up to the present, and Encouragement
and readustment in light Of that work If what was expected
has not been done, then efforts should be made to reach that
5t

end. That is why aims and OBJ
jectives are always set down
by such groups as the Autho-
rity. They can check on them
selves periodically to see
where they are going, how far
they have come, and what is
left to be done. The Authority
could perform a great service
if checked on itself here and
now, keeping in mind that it
came into being to offer eff
Gent electrical service to this
Island and at reasonable rates.

Secret Meeting Reported;
Remuneration Of World
Domination Aim Noted
BY CorI W McCordIe

Russia has just informed the
United States that it no longer is
attempting to dominate the world,
irrespective of whether it ever had
an aim, it was learned here today.
At the same time,. the Soviet
expresses an eagerness to work
out an agreement whereby it could
trade more extensively with the
United States.
It asked If it could do business
with American concerns on a
decent" basis. or if the "Ameri-
can monopolists' would demand
too much profit"
American diplomatic officials
are examining the Russian views
with a careful and skeptical eye.
Trade Proposal Studied.
They want to see if these views
mean anything more than a Rus
sian attempt to maneuver it's way
out of the box it got into with the
Korean war. which generated a
big-scale American armament eff
fort.
They are particularly studying
the Russian proposal on trade,
which they felt might be a very
significant move.
American imports of Russian
goods have increased recently, but
shipments from the United States
to the Soviet have dropped sharp
ly. The decrease is probably due
largely to the fact that export of
war-potential goods to the Iron
Curtain countries is prohibited.
The Soviet views were put for

Col. Hennawi, a storm center of

sent Zayim to the firing squad.
Zayim himself had seized power
in a coup a few months before.
At the time of the elections in
Syria last December Col. Hennawi

by troops under the command of
Col. Adib el Shishekly.
Col. Shishekly himself was am
