Republicans stepped up their bid today to win control of Congress with a charge that Truman ad- ministration policy will wreck the United States and reduce It to Bankruptcy"
 That charge, uttered by Senator Taft of Ohio, was the official COP reply to President Truman's self styled mon political" cross-country speaking tour which ended yes terday.
 The Ohio Republican spoke last night over a nationwide radio hook up. Besides attacking Democratic domestic policies, Taft laid down Republican pledge to oppose Communism abroad and eliminate it from government agencies at home.
 Tafts speech climaxed continued Republican criticism of MT. Tru- mans 6,000-mile trip to the North west and back.
 The President, who had stys,d his trip a report to the people, " challenged the Republicans to
 come up with something better than his Fair Deal" program.
 Taft said Democratic policies have raised the threat of third world war and at home have point cd the nation toward regimentation and socialism, leading to bankrupt cy. He said:
 'The general program of the Truman crusade is clear Promise everything, and hope to back it Np with government money. Every American knows in his heart that such a policy will wreck the United States and reduce it to bankruptcy It will bring, first imitation, and then depression

GRUENING PLEASED {, THAT STATEHOOD
 F0E5CHANGE MIND

Gov. Ernest Gruening arrived this morning at his office after quick flight from Edmonton, Alta, via Whitehorse, and plunged immedi- ately into attempting to do what he could regarding the current salmon industry dispute, plus other business awaiting his return.
 The governor. who led testimony before the Senate committee in Washington for Alaska statehood, expressed pleasure at seeing that even statehood opponents were fin ally for" statehood-even though they disagreed with the bill passed by the House-H.R. 331.
 "The situation regarding our statehood has changed" he said, where once opponents of the pro- posal were simply out-and-out op- posed to it, now they agree with us who want to see it."
 He recognized the delaying tac- tics" used by foes of the measure, but felt that much ground had been gained in influencing committee members who heard testimony.
 He will leave tomorrow for Sitka, to speak Friday before the gradu- ating' class of the Mt. Edgecumbe Vocational School. His subject will be on the general subject of De mocracy," he said.

W0RLDARMY TO HOLD REDS
 CONSIDERED
(By the Associated Press)

The 12 North Atlantic Treaty na- tions today weighed the possibility of creating an international army to contain Communism.
 In what might be the last day of their London conference, the Foreign Ministers of the Pact coun- tries heard an American proposal to set up a super command. Il would weld together their military power and strengthen political and economic ties as well.
 Under this plan the continental countries would supply most Of the ground forces. Defense experts have recommended a standing army ot 30 divisions-450000 men. French Infantry would probably make up the bulk of this army.
 Informants said Britain would concentrate on jet fighters and anti submarine warfare. Britain has shown great efficiency in both phases.
 Proposers of the international army plan contend that it will be successful if nations concentrate on what they can do best and most efficiently. This will avoid the di- lemma of spending too much or armaments to fight Communism only to find the nation fertile fielo for Communism because it has spent itself in bankruptcy.
 Under the American plan, the United States would supply heavy naval vessels and big high-speed bombers and other more costly arms which the United States is in a better position to provide.
 British newspapers have specu- lated that the job of overall com mander should go to an American and the names of Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, wartime Supreme Allied Commander, and Gen. Omar N. Bradley, chairman of the US. Joint Chiefs of Staff, have been mentioned. However, most of the Pact nations have expressed a pref erence for civilian to fill the post.

 RECORDED

PASADENA, Calf. May 17-tR- Two exceptionally heavy earth ouakes, at distances of 5000 to 5000 miles from here, were re- corded at California Institute of Technology today.
 Dr. Charles F. Richter said both are at about the same distance, but at greatly varying depths and un- uuestionably are two separate shocks.
 By comparison between records here and at the University of Cali fornia, Berkeley, the first quake was placed in the vicinity of Hon. shu. main Japanese island. It cen5 tered about $50 miles deep and was magnitude 7-rating it as destruc- tive in populous area-and started at 4:59.19 (PDT.
 Richter called it "the largest earthquake anywhere in the world since last February" A severe af- tershock followed nine minutes later.
 The second tremor began at ll:26.O5 (PDT and may prove of equal magnitude. the seismologist said. He described it as the normal shallow depth type" however. and said it was more likely to prove damaging in a settled area.
 It was believed centered in the South Pacific.

 vWASHINGTON-High Commits sioner McCloy has cabled the State Department from Germany that the Communists are getting cold feet and will back down on thelr threat to seize Berlin during their May Day demonstrations.
 McCloy reports he has learned that Foreign Minister VishlnsKy has called the East German Com munist leaders to Moscow and has ordered them to abandon their invasion. Vishinsky and the Pollt- buro are now convinced that the West means business and will fight to keep Berlin.
 But Vishinsky gave the German Communists a caustic dressing down for tipping the Russian hand by their boastful speeches about what they intended to do. He figures that if the Communists hadn't blabbed so much, they could have surprised the Western troops and taken over the city in a few minutes.

SCHOOL DISTRICT VOTES IN FAVOR
 BIG BOND ISSUE

Property owners in the Juneau Independent School District yes- terday voted heavily in favor of the construction of new grade school building in Juneau.
 Specifically, they voted in favor of the school districts mourning a bonded indebtedness of not more than $750,000 and issuing and sell ing negotiable general obligation bonds not to exceed that amount, the proceeds from such bond sales to be used for constructing a new 10-classroom school building
 The vote at the City Hall pre- cinct was 368 in favor of the pro- posal and Al against; at the Aux Bay precinct 20 ballots were cast in favor of the proposal and eight against.
 The proportion of ballots cast in favor of the proposal greatly ex- ceeded the 65 percent necessary to give the school board the go-ahead with the bond issue.
 / School board officials have de- clared that the total amount of bonds authorized will probably not be issued.
 The bond issue will finance the city's share of constructing a $8OO0,000 school building equipped with large gymnasium auditorium, rifle range, cafeteria, and class rooms. It will also finance pur- chase of the site for the planned structure on the channel side of Glacier Highway between 18th and Irwin Streets, and the cost of the site and burying the high-tension power lines now crossing the prop erty.
 Federal funds, supplied under Che provisions of the Public Works Bill for Alaska, will finance half the cost of the actual planning, con- struction and equipping of the building.
