Dangers of Strikes
(Jessen'S Weekly)

(Jessen's Weekly)
 Alaska's future may depend upon the Defense de- partment's final decision to it's expendibity-a thought that labor unions and business should take into consideration in their disputes.
 It might be entirely possible that with the entire Territorys economy broken up by strikes, that the military would decide it is expendble and withdraw from the area. On the other hand, if the dsputing parties are able to get together and operate basis of peace and harmony the Army Navy and Air Forces might continue to receive increased appropriations for Alaskan defense that will react h she berett of all concerned.
 It will be recalled that sister Terrtorly, Ha- wa for years enjoyed the benefits of large military population. Last year the economy of the islands practically wrecked by extended shipping strike that lasted for months end Industry is still shot to pieces in the Paradise of the Pacific and many dubious of it's eventual recovery Added to this-the military forces have withdrawn to Guam and elsewhere, leaving but skeleton force behind
 Labor troubles may have had nothing to do with the removal of the troops elsewhere-or again they might. Paralysis of industry with attendant hard ships on residents community effects service per sonnel well civilians.

be for contributing to the develop ment of friendly relations between Italy and the United States"
 However, here is what these three recipients did to improve friendly relations" between the United States and Italy:
 General Renfrow-when four American Legionnaires patriotic ally gave their time and money to y.sit Italy to present the tide of toys to Italian children, Gen. eral Renfrow refused them passage on a Air Force plane. The Sec retary of Air and the top generals of tIe Air Force ok'd the trip; but General Renfrow said no. Appar- ently the Italian Embassy thought this merited a medal.
 General Graham At the height of European starvation, when the U. S. A. was buying food to send to the people of Italy, General Graham used his inside Knowledge as a White House aide to speculate in the food which we were sending to Italy. He also was rewarded by the Italian government.
 General Vaughan-In 1946 when the Italian people were starving and the American people were holding themselves down to one or two slices of bread daily, Gen. eral Vaughan phoned the Agricul- ture Department demanding that American whisky distillers get a bigger grain quota at the expense of the Italian and European peo- pie.
 When the Agriculture Depart ment refused to yield, General Vaughan got nasty and claimed it was his prerogative to fix grain- liquor quotas.
 Vaughan also pulled various other deals which the Italian gov- ernment apparently considered mer- itorious. He favored race track construction at the expense of vet eran's homes. He pulled wires for his friend John Maragon wher. Maragon was charged with smug- gling. He also behaved so badly in regard to other matters that he won an official spankink from Senate Investigating committee.
 Therefore, on the anniversary of the founding of the Italian repub- lie, General Vaughan was awarded the star of solidarity, as a reward for promoting friendly relations be- tween the United States and Italy
 Note-An increasing number oi COngressmen are concluding that George Washington was right wher he banned all foreign medals tt American officials. Since Genera Vaughan got his famed meda from Argentina, that country hai received a sl25,OOO OO0 Export I'm port Bank credit.

STATEHOOD
BILL VOTE
IS DELAYED
Alaska, Hawaii Measures
May Come Up in Senate
During Next Week
BY CHARLES ID. WATKINS

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1--lR-The
Senate probably won't be able to
consider statehood bills for Alaska
md Hawaii until some time next
week, at the earliest.
Il want to see both statehood
bills become law" Senator Mag
nuson D-Wash) said today, but
don't see how we can possibly
get to them before some time next
week."
Bills to admit both Territories to
the Union have been passed by
the House and approved by the
Senate insular committee.
Program in Senate
Magnuson told a reporter he be-
lieved the appropriations bill now
before the Senate can be disposed
Of by tomorrow. Then, he said,
President Truman's emergency
powers bill probably will be given
the right-of-Way, after which at
least one day will be devoted to
oils concerning the maritime in
dustry.
And if the Presidents tax bill
is received before that time it
probably will again delay calling up
The statehood bills Magnuson adj
led.
Senator O'Mahoney D-Wyo),
chairman of the insular committee,
agreed that the tax bill could be
another block in the path of the
statehood bills.
Opposes Alaska Bill
Senator Gordon (R-Ore.) has
been waiting for an opportunity
to call up the Hawaiian bill some
time after the appropriations meas
ure is completed He has said he
would not object to calling up the
Alaska bill at the same time al
though he has declared opposition
to it.
Senator Watkins CR-Utah said
today he believes any attempt to
call up the statehood bills will
involve the Senate in long dis
pute. A member of the committee
which endorsed the bills, Watkins
predicted motion to call up the
bills would meet with a sharp OPP
position.
There were reports-on which no
senator would comment-that some
members would like to see the Ha-
Waiian bill brought up and then
laid aside to permit the Senate to
lake up the Mundt-Nixon anti
Communist bill. That strategy
would mean another delay in Sen
ate consideration of the statehood
measures.

CHANCES DIMMED
WASHINGTON, Aug. l =

WASHINGTON, Aug. / = Up -
Chances dimmed today for early
Senate consideration of bills to
grant statehood to Alaska and Ha-
wall.
Senator Lucas D-Ill0, majority
leader, told reporters the legisla-
ton was not discussed at a meeting
Of the Democratic policy committee
this afternoon. And he indicated
he had no plans for calling up the
statehood bills.
Lucas said he understood that if
the legislation were brought up,
southern senators would move to
consider instead the Mundt- Nixon
ti-Communist bill. He said also
that Senator LANCER R-ND) had
told him he would offer fair en-
ployment practices legislation in
place of the statehood bills if they
were called up.
Therefore, Lucas said it seemed
useless to him to put the Alaska
Hawaii bills before the Senate. lie
said such move would bring
about a parliamentary tangle and
delay other business.

PLANE WRECK
FOUND; TRAIL
CREW HERE.
Crashed Air Force C-54 Is
Sighted on MI.
CriIIon

Wreckage of the missing q. S.
Air Force C-54 was spotted late
yesterday afternoon at about the
9,000-foot level of Mount Crillon,
one of the highest peaks in the
Brabazon Range.
There was no sign of the planes
six crewmen.
The 15,900-fQpt peak in the Fair
weather area is about 80 air miles
west of Juneau and 80 to 40 miles
north of Cape Spencer.
Flying according to calculations
of a meteorologist at Elmendorf
Air Force Base, Anchorage, a
searching BIZ located the wreckage
exactly according to forecast"
The weatherman had calculated
corrections the pilot would have to
make due to two low-pressure areas
in the Kenai Peninsula Gulf of
Alaska region.
The four-engine craft disap-
peared Saturday while enroute from
McChord Air Force Base near Ia
coma, Wash, to its home base near
Anchorage.
Planes Converge Here
With arrival last night of a C-54
and a CAT from Elmendorf, to join
10th Air Rescue Squadron C-47
already here, Juneau became the
base for operations of removing the
six occupants of the crashed plane.
Capt. Roy L. Holdiman, 10th
Rescue executive officer, is in
charge of all removal operations
from here.
He expects to use the twin-en-
gined ski-plane, hoping to be able
to land on Brady Glacier. Holdi-
man has made numerous landings
on the Juneau Ice Cap.
Experienced paratroop specialists
such as Maj. z. j. Bacqewski,
para-medic, are among members of
the 10th Rescue trail crew arriving

Most of today, flight and trail
crews of all three ships were rest
lessly awaiting a weather break for
the trip into the treacherous Bra
bacon country. Passes there are
narrow, downdrafts frequent, and
weather today was stormy.
At best, with ideal conditions,
the removal operation would be
tricky and difficult, say the Air
Force experts.
Civilian Experts, Too
To land or drop trail crews was
a problem that would have to
await arrival near the crash scene
and quick on-the-spot decision.

FATE0F ILWU
LEADER TO BE
DECIDED SOON

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. Ia
Swift action is expected on gov
eminent request that a Federal
Court revoke the $25, 900 bond which
has given labor leader Harry Bridges
freedom since his conviction last
April on perjury and conspiracy
charges.
Federal Judge George B. Harris
said he will hear arguments on the
governments motion tomorrow. The
date was set after the bench over
ruled arguments of Paul Leonard,
Bridges attorney, that more time
was needed by the defense to pre-
pare its case.
The Justice Department yesterday
asked that Bridges bond be cam
celled-an action which would send
the left-wing maritime union Off
cial to jail
In moving that the bail be re-
voked, F. Joseph Donohue. special
assistant to the United States At
torney General, described Bridges as
a direct menace to the security Of
this country"
Affidavits filed by Donohue made
extensive reference to Bridges atti-
tude toward the Korean conflict. 1t
was stated that Bridges has been
active in opposing United States and
United Nations policy regarding Ko-
rea.
There also has been considerable
friction between Bridges, president
of the CLIO Longshoremen's and
Warehousemen's Union, and other
members. over his attitude toward
Korea.
Several locals up and down the
coast have passed resolutions sup
porting American and UN policy.
Bridges, a native of Australia, will
be allowed to testify at the hearing,
if he wishes, but apparently no
other witnesses can be heard.

'CANNERY WORKERS
OPPOSE PRESSURE
FROM |lWU GROUP

BELLINGHAM, Wash, Aug. L
lR-Members of the Cannery Work.
ers Union, No. 36, voted unani-
mously today to oppose "unauthor-
lied pressure from unions not con-
cerned," and work toward bring
ing what can be salvaged of prom
ised shipments of Alaska pack SAL
mon here for labelling.
With the strong Endorsement of
the Port of Bellingham, the workers
gathered at a special meeting called
by President Mrs. Roy M. FUR and
went on record in support of a pro-
gram forwarded by officers of the
Columbia River Packers Associa-
ton.
The program, as anticipated by
Nick Bee, chairman of the board of
Columbia Packers, has been to dis
patch between 100000 and 100000
cases of salmon packed in the COM
pany'S cannerieS in Alaska here for
labelling by the local plants crews
during the slack months.
Joe Zurich of the fishermen's di-
vision, ILWU (CIO), had informed
local company officials and union
officers that this salmon could not
be handled in Bellingham. The
group said he informed them that if
the salmon came here, it would
have to be handled at public ware
house prices.
This is your opportunity to show
whether or not you will be dictated
to by outside sources on matters
solely up to you," said Harry Isler,
manager of the port in reaffirming
the ports support of the workers
position.
