total of less than a week Never theless, an agreement was entered into which so completely placed Soviet Russia in control of Man churia that Korea's future was in evitably to serve as battle-ground in the next war.
 At the Moscow conference, meet ing between December Is and 26, l945, Korea was divided between Soviet Russia and the United States. This was done with a view to the establishment of Korea as an independent state the creation of conditions for de- veloping the country on democratic principles and the earliest possible liquidation of the disastrous re- suits of the protracted Japanese domination in Korea, there shall be set up provisional Korean democratic government which shall take all the necessary steps fol developing the industry, transport and agriculture of Korea and the national culture of the Korear people,
 That so-called democratic gov ernment has not come into exist ence because Soviet Russia did not permit it. Since 1945, Soviet Rus sia has devoted itself to the estab- lishment of Soviet Korea. By this Moscow agreement, signed by James F. Byrnes. Ernest Bevin, and V. Molotov on December 27, 1945, Korea was to be held by a joint commission. Actually, the country was divided into two parts on the 38th parallel, Soviet Russia occupy ing the northern sector; the United States, the southern sector.
 Had no politics been played in the United States, the practical solution would have been to place Korea completely under the contro. of General Douglas MacArthur as part of Japan. However, there has been a running fight between the State Department and the Depart ment of Defense over the American policy in China, Japan and Korea. This quarrel has been reflected in a weakened American implementa- tion of policy.
 If the Russians can conquer Kor- ca, our position in Japan is defi- nitely imperiled. For Japan is next and if Japan is taken, Alaska will be untenable. Empire moves unless it is destroyed.

32,437 ACRES IN ALA5kA'5 DUNBAR
 AREA RE0pENED
But Applicants for 1 and Warned 10 Consider
 FarmingProbIems

WASHINGTON, June 29 = R - The Interior Department has re- opened the Dunbar area of Alaska to individual settlement.
 But the agency said applicants for land in the area, 40 miles west of Fairbanks, must gravely consider the frost and other problems they would have to face in trying to start farm.
 The department also rejected the area for group settlement purposes.
 Two years ago it withdrew the 32.437 acres from individual settle ment in the Goldstream Creek valt ley in the hope community pro- ject might be established.
 Tn all fairness to the public, no land known to be unsuitable for farming should be open to agricuf- tural entry" the Bureau of Land Management said in a news release.
 "A citizen has right to believe that public land opened to farm settlement is in truth suitable on the whole for farming.
 But it would be impracticable under existing law to withhold this area permanently from agricultural entry
 The bureau said surveys showed the Dunbar area to be unsuitable for group settlement because:
 l. Only 5000 acres were free from sinking due to the uneven falling of ice.
 2. The 5000 acres of suitable land were not situated suitably for division into sizable farm units.
 3. Water supplies for domestic use and for livestock probably would be inadequate.
 4. It would be impracticable to provide community facilities and services for such a small and poorly arranged area.
 5. Economic studies of farming in Alaska provided little hope for successful agriculture in the Dun- bar area.
 6. Superior agricultural oppor- tunities exist elsewhere in Alaska.
 The bureau added that it plans to require all applicants for land in the Dunbar area to show that they are fully informed of the general unsuitability of the area for agricultural homestead purposes.

Packed with the volcanic emo- tions of youth, Universal-Interna- tional's City Across the River" is strong drama laid against the roar ing background of Brooklyn. This feature is at the Capitol Theatre tonight.

 There are fresh faces on the fem mine side, too. Barbara Whiting is the attractive tenement teen-ager who evcites the emotions of Shelly, portraying half-mad youth named Crazy. Sue England is Fernandez girl friend. The romance between them seems almost delicately beau- tiful against the rough. passionate environment in which they move.

I H EsE DAYS
GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY
THE KOREAN STRATEGY

It is suggested that what has happened in Korea represents a tactical surprise. Nothing could be more false. The Korean situation is the inevitable result of a con- tinuously incorrect policy in the East of Asia, particularly China Empires are built step by step. the new line of attack moving out as bulwark of defense. Once Man churia came into the possession of Soviet Russia, it was inevitable that Korea would be the next step and following that would be an attack on Japan.
 Korea is a peninsula that lies between Manchuria and Japan. It cannot defend itself against an in- vader from either Manchuria or Japan. Therefore, all the countries lying close to Korea-China, Russia and Japan-have vied for control in the modern historical period By 1910, Japan was in position to dominate Korea and to annex it to Japan. The Koreans took that annexation placidly; perhaps because in their own language the name of their country is chosen the land of the morning calm. In fact, the Koreans have been a peaceful people not given to fight ing except on rare occasions. They are BuddhiSts.
 Although there was always a revolutionary movement among Koreans living outside of their own country, its influence within Korea was negligible. Among the anti Japanese revolutionists was one group whose sympathies were west ern; that is, they tended to place their dependence upon the United States. Many of those who be- longed to this group had been ed- ucated in American universities or in Christian mission schools in Korea.
 There was, however, another group which. along with other Asiatics, turned toward Moscow after the Russian revolution. They were trained in the Sun Yat-Sen Institute and the Lenin Institute in Moscow and fought in the armies of the Chinese Communists under Mao Tze-Tung and Gnu Teh. Many of these Korean Communists have had as many as 30 years of train- ing in the Communist movement. Many of them have been active in the civil wars of China since 1924. It is interesting to note that Con- munists, the world over, place their movement before their country and recognize Russia as holding spec ial relationship to other countries because it is the motherhood of the revolution.
 Russia comes into this situation as result of the Yalta agreement. It must be recalled that when the Yalta agreement was signed, Sov- jet Russia was neutral in the Far Eastern war. It was in that war a

Mcmillan Takes Pity on Drivers,
Calls for Inquiry Into Parking

Chairman Mcmillan of the
House District Committee has
been moved by a deep sympathy
for the District motorist who can t
find a parking place.
He doesn't know what can be
done, but he thinks the members
of the House who are charged with
responsibility for the welfare OF
District residents should take a
stab at the problem. at least.
Mr.. Mcmillan introduced reso-
luton in the House yesterday
which would authorize his COM
mittee to conduct a general in
quiry into the parking situation
here.
The group would be empowered
to hold public hearings as a full
committee or through a subcom-
mittee.
Il have received a stack of let
ters on this matter" Mr.. Mcmillan
said. Il think we owe it to the
public to see whether we can be
OF any help. The idea is not to
criticize the traffic officials, but to
try to be helpful"
Specifically, the Mcmillan reso-
luton would authorize study of
both on-street and off street park
ing. 1t would direct attention,
particularly, to the rates charged
by parking lots and garages and
the services" provided by such
facilities,

Mr.. Mcmillan indicated he is

effect after the end of the business
day.
IT have received letters, for
example, complaining that people
can't find a place to park on i'm
portant streets, such as Twelfth
street and Pennsylvania avenue,
at night" he said.
Asked whether he is concerned
particularly with the snow park
ing restrictions on main arteries,
Mr.. Mcmillan said he did not re-
call complaints on this policy,
but number of letters objected
to the extent of "no-parking-at-
any, time" signs that cut down
after-dark parking space.

dicated public hearings would be
scheduled, if the House approved
his resolution, and the spirit
would be one of a sincere attempt
