Good By Red Standards
Buffalo Courier -Express)


 Nine of the 27 lend-lease destroyer escorts the Russians have agreed to return to the United Saees are back in American hands. They were turned over bv their Russian at the naval base at 4oKoSuKa' Japan in what Rear Adm. Benton w. Decker, uhteo States Navy representative, called very good cona ton by Russian standards"
 That means according to members of Admiral Deckers inspection party, that corrosion was general mirrors were broken, plumbing was stopped up anu tools and fittings missing. Only the guns ana depth charge equipment appeared to be in excellent condition by American standards
 We have no way of knowing whether such condi- tions are general throughout the Soviet navy or whether the fact that the returned ships resembed floating pgses intended a sort of gratuitous insult to the United States for letting the Russians use them for four years without compensation.
 But the tradition of great navies such as those of the United States and Great Britain, demands neaness and cleanliness at all points If sovenlness aboard ship presupposes sovenlness in handling and fighting her and if slovenliness is general char acerstic of Russian warships then the battle poen- iaites of the Soviet fleet open to considerable

JUNEAU GREETS 1850

Juneau gave the New Year a gay greeting and sane one Twelve booms from the Fire Departments cannon ringing of church bells blowing of auto horns and merry Happy New Year exchanges among all, brought 1850 into Juneau. Gaiety reigned at various public and private affairs and the weather helped out by remaining at two degrees below but little of any breeze prevailing.
 The evening started off with something new a spendid display of reworks. Then citizens began preparing for the evenings festivities home else where Hundreds took time out for rejoicing and paid their devotions at several church services.
 And today we are well on the 1850 way with splendid prospects ahead.

Reversing Chinese Weapons


 It sounds so simple that sophis- ticated diplomats probably won't consider it. But it has been used scores of times by the Chinese against the western world. and it will work just as effectively if the western world uses it against the Chinese Communists.
 This weapon merely consists of cutting off all trade, all communi- cations, all contact with the Chin- csc and letting them stew in their own juice.
 In one respect, this would be cruel retaliation. For thousands of Chimes would starve; there would be unemployment, rioting and upheav- al in Chinese cities.
 But 1t is the only way by which the Chinese Communist govern msnt can be taught that it cannot seize our consuls, imprison our aviators and treat us as the Japs cree treated Formosans.
 Furthermore it is the only way we can prevent the southward rush Of Communism to the Philippines, to French Indo-China, Burma, the Butch East Indies and India.
 Today, old-fashioned demonstra- tions by a few extra warships in Chinese waters won't mean more than a flea-bite to the vast and stirring continent of Asia. Nor can we invade any part of China with an army. On the other hand, 1t will take novel and world-shaking action to halt the southward rush of Communism, and the use of China's own tactics in the form of Q boycott blockade is about the only thing that could do it. Other wise most of Asia will gradually go under Moscow's wing.

Roycctting The West

This writer was in China when such a boycott was applied to the western world in 1925. Chinese stu dents had been killed by British Marines, and in retaliation the foreign colony of .5hameen at Canton was boycotted by the Chin ese. As a result, grass grew in the streets. All food had to be import ed. Not a servant remained on the island.
 Every morning you saw the Am erican Consul sweeping his own office and the Italian Consul haul ing ice on child's express wagon. Tn the evening, the French Consul mixed the salad, the British con sul cooked the meat and the It. allan Consul fixed the dessert at a community dinner.

FDR Considered Orient Boycott

Nearest approach to a western large-scale use of the boycott came in 1886 when Adm. William Leahy, then Chief of Naval Operations, proposed to President Roosevelt that the American and British fleets blockade Japanese waters and cut off all supplies of oil, cotton, copper and scrap iron.
 This was one of the most import ant but least known chapters in American foreign policy, for if the blockade had been put across, it is no exaggeration to say that World War II probably could have been prevented.
 To put it across, FDR invited the nine power pact nations which had guaranteed the sovereignty of China to meet at Brussels in Oct obar 1886. But there was dissen- sion, not only between the nine powers, but inside the Roosevelt Adalinistration-just as there is today.
 Cordell Hull, then Secretary of State, was personally opposed, So was the late Hugh Wilson, one Of his chief advisers. On the other hand, Special Ambassador Norman Davis, later head of the Red Cross, together with Undersecretary of State Sumner Welles, vigorously supported the boycott.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1950-01-03
British Would Say No

Thanks to this hesitation and dissension, the boycott of Japan died aborning. If put into effect, however, it would have been a conclusive object lesson to the European dictators that the dem ocracies could act together against aggression.
 Today, our biggest problem in any boycott of China is Britain. Even were the State and Defense De- partments able to reconcile their differences, the British probably would not cooperate. They have been straining at the leash for months determined to recognize the Chinese Communists and, as late as November. British Am bassador Frank called on Secre- tary Acheson with flat statement that Britain had made up its mind to extend recognition Ache son urged delay, but won only a scant few weeks
 Reason for British determina- tion to do business with the Com munists is the great chain of warehouses and shipping lines which have carried empire goods to the Orient for half a century Also Hongkong would be forced to capitulate any time the Com munists cut off its water supply. So the British Foreign Office fig ures it can save these investments hy recognizing the Communist re- gime now.

ern boycott around other cities in- stead of chiefly Canton, all for eigners would have been busted. But, as usual, Chinese factions rowed between themselves, and the western powers practlced the old policy of divide and rule.
 Today the reverse is true. The Chinese are now united under a ruthless rule of Communism, and are about to divide Great Britain and the United States.

anything but easy. But there is enc policy which the United States has never tried-namely the tac- tics used by the Chinese against us.
 This is the age-old policy of pas sive resistance coupled with the boycott and probably it is the cnly policy which will work either in China or against China.
