WISE POLICY CHANGE

The Navy already has made it plain that it means to operate transports and cargo ships itself, rather than place them under the Merchant Marine. It is recruiting merchant and officers to man such ships under Civil Service regulations. It will operate others with regular naval personnel.
 This is a sensible change of policy. During World War H. many transports most military cargo ships, snany other auxiliary vessels were operated by private shipping companies The results were not good Merchant drew much higher pay than naval personnel worked shorter hours demanded big bonuses for service in combat areas and insisted normal days off, even in the forward area when swift unloading desperately urgent
 It is far better for the Navy to operate it's own

"The thought occurred" Mc- Carthy hinted that you might have an extra supply of paper which you would let us have to use in this work"
 Mccarthy added significantly that he planned to use the paper "in a sizable number of speeches which I plan to make prior to the fall elections"
 Passing the Blame
 In several hush-hush appear ances before Congressional com- mittees, Adm. R. H. Hillenkoetter director of the Central Intelligence Agency, has tried to pin the full blame for our foul-up in Korea on the State and Defense Depart ments.
 For example, Hillenkoetter re- gently told the House expenditures committee that he had made a ser ies of reports to both departments over a period of six months before the invasion, telling of North Kor- can troop movements that made war inevitable.
 This may be true. However, it is a far cry from what Hillenkoetter told the House of foreign affairs committee behind closed doors on June 23-just one day before the North Koreans attacked.
 At that time the intelligence chief testified that there had been evidences" to troop mobilization above the 38th Parallel but that it was almost impossible" to get authentic information because of the reluctance" of native inform CTS.
 Pinned down by Republican Rep- resentative James Fulton of Penn sylvania, Hillenkoetter told the committee: Tn my opinion, there is nothing to indicate any action in Korea in the near future" He added something to the effect that accidents can happen, of course"

Out of Paper

Sen. Joe Mccarthy has been grinding out so many speeches and press releases about Communism in the State Department that he has used up his Senate paper quota Since he must now pay for paper out of his own pocket, he has ap- pealed to Republican colleagues to lend him some from their supplies.
 When I started on this invest igation, my office had an excess of paper of all kinds" Mccarthy explained in letter to Republican senators. However, due to the great volume of documents we have used to date, my supply of paper has been completely ex- hausted and it has been necessary for some time to buy all the paper we use. This has become a very expensive venture.

Lathrop's Loyal Assistants
(Ketchikan News)


 Loyal and efficient assistants contributed greatly to the success of Captain Austin E. Lahrop in Alaska It also was complimentary to his executive genius in his choice.
 Two people entitled to great credit are Miriam Dickey business assistant and secretary and the former Miss Ruby DeGraff. The latter died in 1927 after IT years with his growing enterprises. This editor along with other Alaskans who knew Miss DeCiraff can speak highly of her sterling qualities, ability and strict attention to duty More and more Captain Lathrop leaned heavily upon her judgment.
 After she died it took him four years to find a successor. It finally became matter of comment about his numerous trips Seattle and other places which he made to interview applicants for the secre- tarial position.
 But it not until Miss Dickey was recommended to him that he made a choice. Miss Dickey was a young journalist graduate from the University of Washington. The late Captain one time humorously remarked that after he satisfied himself that Miss Dickey was the person to hire he had to undergo cross examination at her hands to if she wanted to work for him.
 Miss Dckey has been Captain Lathrop's secretary and manager for 19 years and knows every small detail of the many Lathrop enterprises. Among her many suggestions acted upon was the opening or KFAR radio station Fairbanks the farthest north radio station in Alaska which opened its doors October 3, 1889.
 We know that if the Captain could have his way he would give full credit to his loyal and efficient assistants

of years Of unsaleable coal.
There were cars 70 haul this
slack but no cars to haul real
coal. Some owners of small
mines in Ohio profited as much
as 100 precent on their capitali-
cation.
The bitter winter, with such
conditions, continued until about
the first of March, when spring
came with a rush and many loo
al people were working in their
gardens during March. That was
the time people were urged to
plant war gardens and most did.
The warm spring weather contin-
ued without another frost or
freeze. / recall that we were
eating various vegetables out of
my garden the first week of
June, and even grew a second
crop of several vegetables dur
ing the summer.
But / do not think the biz
yards Of that winter were COM
parable to the one last Satur-
day in many respects.
Many years ago, a blizzard
meant the gas pressure would
go down and often be shut off
entirely so that people had to
build coal fires on top of the
fire bricks in the gas stoves then
in use. OF course, we had no
natural gas in Marysville until
recent times but it bespeaks
much for the Ohio Fuel Gas
Company that it was able to
take the blizzard of last Satur-
day in stride, despite the ter
rifle wind, snow and near-zero
temperature.
And we had lights every
where this time, and a telephone
service only somewhat impaired,
and, ! presume some frozen
pipes. In these respects, Satur-
days's storm was far more en-
durable than that of l917-18.

ly in the newer additions such

with the force of the wind against
the trees and many homes were
in darkness. Frozen water pipes
were the rule in Marysville. The
icy particles seemed to find their
way into every crevice in the
walls.
In those days the automobile
was still largely a summer ma
chine and most people put their
cars in their garages on jacks
for the winter, so there was no
automobile problem as we had
last Saturday and Sunday. But
there were no trains coming into
Marysville from Dec. II until
the following Tuesday. Railroad
men said the icy snow was blown
into the engines, under fire
boxes, and other parts of the en-
gines, to such an extent that
they couldn't get up steam
enough to buck the drifts. Rail
road traffic was stalled for six
straight week-ends.

out of coal. Scores of people,
most of whom would have been
glad to pay for their fuel, des-
cended on coal trains waiting on
switches and threw coal off and
carted it to their homes. At first
no effort was made by the Off
GERS to stop this practice until
it was learned that a few were
taking advantage of the situa-
ton to throw off large amounts
of coal which they did not need
and some were reported as even
selling coal they had carted
away. At first many of those
getting coal this way were prom
inent citizens. Who could blame
them?
Later, coal deliveries were
promised the town and a plan
of rationing was set up in the
room now occupied by the coun-
ty superintendent of schools,
with the late ed Henderson in
charge. Orders for quarter-ton
purchases of coal were given and
the buyers soon found the coal
they were getting was so-called
run-of-mine coal, actually slack.
