'g This Changing World
Attlee Has Peace at Any Price Order
From London and Paris Governments

Atlantic and the Pacific. Unless
we wish to see our national Sc
curity seriously endangered, we
not only must keep the Asiatic
shore out of the Communist grip,
but we must also see to it that
Japan, Formosa and the Philip
pines remain outside Moscow's
reach. Even the State Department
admits now that Russia is respon-
sible for the aggression in Asia.
All efforts to make a deal with
the Peiping puppets have failed
on Moscow's order. Appeasement
OF the Chinese might delay the
final showdown with Russia, but
only long enough to permit the
kremlin to exploit our politico-
military defeats and make us lose
face in Japan and the Philippines.
Japan was denuded of American
troops when Gen. Macarthur or
dered all the occupation forces
sent to Korea. Conditions in Japan
may be vastly different when a
defeated army is returned as an
occupation force.
These considerations do not un-
duly worry our European allies.
Britain and France feel that any
manpower or money spent by the
American Government in military
operations in the Far East de-
priveS Europe of that much Amer
ican assistance. Britain now has
only economic interests in Asia
and France has colonial interest.
But neither country's borders are
actually threatened from the Far
East by Communist imperialism
the way ours are.
Truman's Position Not Easy.
The State Department, and to a
lesser extent the Defense Depart
ment, fully share this European
point Of view. Mr.. Truman's posi-
tion will not be easy. Congress
and the whole country are stunned
and angry over happenings in
Korea, where our forces have been
defeated because they are so heav-
lily outnumbered. OF the 10000
Western troops in the line only
1900 are British. Frances one
under strength battalion has not
been committed yet.
Neither the American people
nor the majority of Congress can
understand why. under these cir
cumstances. Gen. Macarthur is
not authorized to use the Chinese
Nationalist divisions offered by the
Formosa government. The argu-
ment of last July. that such an
Intervention might bring the
Chinese Communists into action,
no longer Is valid. We now are
f1ghting only Chinese Communists.
There are good reasons to be-
lieye that Gen. Macarthur would
welcome diversion by the Ma
tionalistS on the mainland, where
they are assured of help from
more than one million anti-Com-
guerrillas. These guerril-
las, led by Nationalist officers.
now are in action.
There may be some important
high-level diplomatic reason for
our stubborn refusal of timely
help from FormoSa. But neither
the American people, nor their
representatives in Congress, can
appreciate them. And Mr.. Tru-
man will be compelled to pay
some attention to the growing
anger of Americans who cannot |
understand why, when their sons
ire being killed in Korea, we re-
use to accept the help of the only
available ground forces in tile
Far East-the Chinese Nationalist |
army.

United States promise not to COM
NIT all its strength to the Asia
venture. Thus the President could
do what he has grumpily COM
planned he is ready to do: Appoint
Gen. Eisenhower head Of an allied
army in Europe.
AS an Offset to some yielding
on Asia, the British are promis-
ing complete firmness in the
prospective talks with Russia. It
is admitted that the President
made Europe nervous with his re-
marks about the atomic bomb and
that Gen. Macarthur is a hair
shirt but no issue will be made
of it.
Old Story for Reporters.
It is an old story for United
States reporters covering interna-
tional conferences to get their
leads from the adroit British but
this time a new order Is in sight.
Regular briefings by one of the
United States conferees are prom
ised which are expected to develop
for the public the alternative
courses being considered with
their advantages and disadvan-
tages.
The military crisis in Korea
makes it difficult to discuss in any
detail yet what the United States
wants. Washington is full of ru-
NOR and speculation about what
may have to be done for the out
numbered and retreating U. N.
forces but nothing is official.

The houses will be financed through an FILA payment plan. Costs, too, could not be definitely pinned down at the Wednesday meeting However it was ex- plained that a house costing S9,300 would require a 10 per cent down payment while one costing in the ten to fifteen thousand dollar bracket would require 20 per cent down pay ment. For example, a $15,000 house would necessitate a down payment of $2,250.
 Interest on the cost of the home would be at the rate of four and a half per cent. The amortization period probably will be 20 years, it was stated.

AHA SELECTS ARRC SITE AS LOCATION FOR 25 HOUSES TO BE BUILT HERE

The 25 houses to be built in Palmer by the Alaska Housing Authority will be located on an Alaska Rural Rehabilitation Cor poration tract of land, lying to the north of the Church of God, E. Glen Wilder, AHA executive director, announced here yester- day. MT. Wilder visited Palmer and selected the site, after in- specting all locations offered.
 MT. Wilder said there were one or two contingencies which might possibly alter the selection, but he felt certain that the houses would go up on the chosen site.
 Architectural work on the houses got under way in Anchor age today. The AHA head still is hoping to have construction un- der way within another 60 days.
 MT. Wilder, accompanied by Robert Crittenden, architect, at tended meeting of the Valley Chamber of Commerce on We'd nesday.
 At that meeting, he explained in some detail, the plans for the 25 houses. The structures will be built in accordance with FILA re- quirements. The houses all will be. one-family dwelling units. Four or five basic floor plans will be adopted, in the interests of economy, it was stated. However houses will be given a varied ap- pearance by the use of exterior trim, differing materials, colors, and by location on the lots. MT. Wilder said every effort would be made to avoid the appearance of housing unit"
 Cost of the houses will depend upon the type of construction. The AHA head seemingly favored plan of providing basements for some of the units and ground level utility rooms for others. However, planning has not yet reached the stage where definite floor plans can be discussed, he said.

Chunqe PuInner's name to Motunusko? WeI why not?
 The name is infinitely more coIorfuI thqn Palmer. 1t is tinged with the romance of the sWdshbuc<Iing history of Alaska, and yet it offers musical, pro- nouncobe and speobIe name for our town.
 Of greatest importance, and the nooo reason for the change, is that it would unoIterobIy link town with the greatest migration of people of nation in this century. What would be small and uninportont movement of families in the centuries just past, has become IineIighted pioneering saga in the history o1 the twentieth century,
 There is no area, in our parent nation, where the words "Motonusko Valley" do not call to mind ontic picture of pioneering farmers in the wastes of the frozen noth Yet of the thousands who recognize those words there are only dozens who realize that the town of Palmer is the populated center of that Valley Among those uninforned are many of our Congressnnen)
 The change in name would raise our town from it's status in oblivion to position of importance in modern history. It would tie it definitely to the agricultural development of it's Valley hinterIund Wherever the word "Mutunuska" is mentioned, those who spoke it would realize that town is the center of the forn- ina center of Alaska.
 Also Motonusko would give us an individuality that we do not have In the western states alone, there are several towns and villages known Palmer. If we were known as Motonusko our identity would be complete and impossible to confuse with any one of half dozen western honlets.
 Finally Motonusko would more truy y noennoriuIize the first inhabitants of this spot We understand that Palmer probably takes it's name from Indian trader who once lived, and conducted his business, in the Indian village of Knik in the late l88Os Probably he claimed land in this particular oreu where he is Vogue- y identified in some Alaskan histories the first white man" to come to the area
 We think the 88Os is pretty recent pioneering to be recognized as founder of towns. Why not reach back into the coIorfu native history of this oreo and give our town a name of true historical voue?- We like the idea.

Mustangs Overcome
14-Point Deficit on

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Sept. 3d.
Southern Methodist's rampaging
Mustangs overcame a 14-point
deficit with 19-point fourth quar-
ter scoring spree today to defeat
Ohio States Rose Bowl champions,
1927.
A stunned crowd of 80,672
watched Fred Benners, 190-pound
SMU quarterback, put on a great
aerial attack to pull the game out
of the fire.
The tall Texan completed 10 of
"a passes for 306 yards, three of
them going for touchdowns in the
closing moments of the see-saw
contest.
Ohio State held a 27-13 edge a
minute after the final quarter
opened. And then Benners went
into his aerial barrage, which COM
pletely befuddled the Buckeye de-
tenders. His opening gun was a
67-yard scoring throw to little
