Secret Aluminium Deal

A secret deal has been made be-
tween the United States and Cam
ada to expand Canadian aluminium
Production at the expense of al
minimum mills in the United States.
However. the aluminium Corpora
ton of America which operates an
affiliate in Canada indirectly will
tet a windfall.
The deal was arranged in pri-
yate talks between Secretary of
Commerce Charles Sawyer, Produc-
ton boss William Harrison and
Canada's Minister Of Trade C. D.
Howe. BY it the United States
agrees to furnish steel for build
ing a giant aluminium works in
the wilds of British Columbia,
which though it will take three
ears to complete, will eventually
produce 100000 tons of aluminium
annually.
The deal follows urgings by
kLCOA aluminium Company of
Emerica) that the government buy
more aluminium from Canada. This
would throw the business to AL
COA's Siamese Twin, ALCAN, and
at the same time prevent building
Up ALCOA's competitors in the
U.SA.
ALCOA's first attempt to swing
this deal failed last October, when
Stuart Symington and Jess Lar
son stopped it. However, Secretary
Of Commerce Sawyer and Produc-
ton boss Harrison have now gone
over their heads.
The new Canadian aluminium
center will be located at Kitimat, a
deserted Indian village in the heart
CT a virgin forest wilderness. This
is only 1900 miles from Siberian
air bases, as compared with pro-
posed American plants on the Gulf
Coast, 5000 miles from Siberia.
Note-This same Aluminium Cor
poration of Canada sold 100000
pounds of precious aluminium to
Communist China, 100000 pounds
TO Communist Poland and 100000
pounds to Communist Czechoslo-
yakia-all after the Communist at
tack on South Korea. Some of this
aluminium is now being used
against United Nations troops in
Korea.
War Censorship
General Macarthur is leaving il
up to his field commanders as tc
how far they should go in censor
ing war news. His secret instruc-
tons are: Delay transmission OF
news and establish news blackout
whenever in your judgment mill

Inside fact is that Macarthur
resisted censorship until premature
dispatches leaked out about the
evacuation Of Hungnam. On two
previous occasions, the Joint Chief,
of Staff had urged him to CLAMP
censorship on military news, bu
he ignored their recommendations
explaining it would take 300 censors
and he didn't have any. Finally af-

 Much time was devoted to dis cussing the Alaska Public Works Act, and the method by which Nome could take advantage of this this expenditure of funds to gain badly needed civic improvements.
 Following review of the Guard Unit at Nome during the early evening, the Governor met with the Board of Directors of the Northwestern Alaska Chamber of Commerce and other interested citizens. All interested individu- als as well as organized groups were urged to appeal to members of the coming session of Congress to keep Marks Air Force Base open and active. The Chamber of Commerce promised group action as well as urging individuals to do as much as possible to prevent loss of funds that might mean the clos ing of the only Air Base in North west Alaska. There is still time for anyone interested in sending a wire or letter to get it to Wash ington in time for a Congressional hearing on January 12. If you need a name or an address of a Congressional member, get in touch with a member of the Cham Der of Commerce and they will secure it for you.
 The Governor reminded the community that filing for the next session of the Legislature must be completed by February lst.
 Departure was made from Marks Air Force Base at 9:30 Sat urday morning.

Ex-treasurer Olson Sentenced To Ten Years, And Fined
Continued from Page One)

Continued from Page One) Olson signed a statement.
 The sentence by Judge Folta was heavier than recommended by either government or defense attorneys. P. J. Gilmore, Jr., U. s. district attorney, suggested a sev- en-year concurrent sentence and a fine equal to the amount in the second count. He said Olson coop erated and assisted the govern ment in the case.
 Defense attorney Robert Boo chever asked for a tWo-year sen tence. He urged the judge to con- slider that Olson had a wife and two children.
 Judge Folta, in brief state ment, declared there is no more fragrant or aggravated case that has come to my notice. The court is not able to take the family into account. If he (Olson doesn't think of them it is not up to us"
 Then he levied a fine double the amount of the second count, and announced the prison term.
 Olson may serve out the fine at g a day, or pay it outright. Or he may swear pauper's oath after serving 30 days on the fine after completing his sentence, or on be- ing paroled.
 Boochever indicated the latter course might be followed when he announced that Olson Twill be a pauper from now on. He can't pay any large fine"
 The maximum penalty under the law is Is years in prison and fine of not more than twice the amount of the embezzlement.
 Olson made no statement after the prison term and fine were an nounced.

Heacock Charges CAB Conducts
 Kangaroo Court

SEATTLE, (P) - A civil aero nautics board order that Air Trans port Associates, Inc, of Seattle show cause why its operating privilege as an irregular carrier should not be revoked brought a prompt challenge from ATA pres ident Amos Heacock.
 Heacock, who also is president of the Independent Air Carriers Conference of America, immedi- ately accused the CAB of prepar- ing to revoke letters of registra- tion of all carriers "who dare to challenge the government support ed monopoly"
 q challenge you," Heacock wrote the CAB, ito defend your action before the public opinion of the people of Alaska who were first brought fresh eggs, milk, meat and produce at prices they could afford by the non-scheds you are destroying"
 The CAB order was issued last week. The agency said 1t acted on information that the company had been making regular flights be- tween Seattle and Anchorage, in violation of its letter of registra- ton as a non-scheduled operator.
 Heacock denied that ATA has violated the civil aeronautics act of 1888.
 He denounced the CAB as a Kangaroo Court" which is "legis- lator, the prosecutor, the police man, the judge and the jury" att at the same time.

Forecast U. s. Aid To NatiOnalists On FOrmOsa
tBy StanwaY Cheng

TAIPEH, Formosa (P)-Well in- formed sources said yesterday U. s. military and economic aid will come to Formosa if the National ists can hold the island from Red Chinese for another six to eight weeks.
 These sources said economic aid will come from the $48,000. .000 unused portion of economic aid administration funds allotted to China and will precede military aid.
 Military aid, they said, will mainly be centered in the SIS 5,00O,- 900 military assistance program voted by the American Congress.
 This same source revealed both American economic and military assistance will be closely super vised by U. s. advisors whose status may not be as United States government representative but as private individuals invited here by the Nationalist government.
 When Generalissimo Chian 2 Kai-Shek arrives from interior Formosa he will have his hands full streamlining the Formosa de-

 Reports say the Chinese com munists in the north have been concentrating ships for the even tual assault on Formosa expected soon. Russian assistance in the formation of the communist am- phibiouS operation is suspected by the nationalistS.

 The ATA president said the war assets administration invited vet erans to start airlines and Con gress gave them priority rights to. war surplus aircraft
 "We were shocked and amazed at the utter incompetence Of our scheduled airline competitors their huge Waste-their half em- pity aircraft fulfilling CAB author ized schedules" he said. eve couldn't understand until we dis covered they could not possibly lose money because the board guaranteed mail pay to make up any losses"
 "As an non-scheduled airline" Heacock continued, I've proved we could provide low cost air transportation to Alaska at one third and less than one-third the per ton mile cost figures of the scheduled lines. Yet our scheduled competitors in Alaska service re- ceived as high as 50 per cent or their revenue in mail pay"
 Heacock asserted the CAB is preparing to revoke the letters Of registration of ATA, Golden North Airways, Mt. Mckinley Air Lines, Arnold Air Service and other car riers who dare to challenge the govemnment-supported mon op oly."

Dog Pound Protested
In West Kensington

The proposed location of a
Montgomery County dog pound in
West Kensington was protested
last night by nearly 200 residents
of the area who asked that the
County Council reconsider the
matter.
The group asked that the coun-
Gil defer its plans for the pound
until another public hearing car
be held. Residents complained
that an incorrect address was
listed when the proposed location
was advertised by the council.
The Executive Committee Of the
West Kensington Citizens Asso-
citation. which sponsored the meet
ing. was asked to investigate the
possibility of taking legal steps
to prevent construction of the
pound.
Objection to the pound was
based on claims that it would be
a nuisance and would depreciate
property values in the residential
area where it is to be located.
Charles Jones. attorney repre-
senting 81 petitioners. said his
clients didn't want the pound near
them under any circumstances.
The controversial 2.67-acre site
is on Maple avenue near the Gar
rett Park road. The town coun-
ellis of Kensington and Garrett
Park both have gone on record
against the proposed location.
