Sive "one last fling"
 Russ Riddle
 In the United Nations, diplomats puzzled over Russia's sudden de- cision to end her boycott of the Se- curity Council. The Soviets an- nounced they will assume the presi- dency of the council in their turn Aug. l. Diplomats speculated this could either be another step in the cold war or an admission that the Soviet boycott was big mistake.
 The Reds chose the time of the attack well, when clouds and rain hampered US. air operations. Some US. Navy planes, however, flew low over the front in rocket and strafing attacks.
 The Communists used the tactics which marked their march all the way down the Korean peninsula infiltration, lunges at weak points and then attack in overwhelming numbers, regardless o1 hlgh casual ties. The Reds, outnumbering the Americans four to one, were using possibly their heaviest concentra- tion of artillery and mortar fire thus far.
 Gen. MacArthur's headquarters said the next few days might be decisive and might bring the turn ing point in the war. President Syngman Rhee of the South Korean Republic promised in broadcast that we soon shall open an all-out offensive" to drive the Communists back to the 38th parallel whence their invasion gobbled up all but a corner of the country.

PAVING TO AUX BAY, .THANE, DOUGLAS TO
 BEGIN IN SHORT TIME
Continued from Page D

Island, and directly across iron Fritz Cove, will be 18 feet wide and extension of the two-mile roac built north of the bridge in 1940- the last road built around Juneau.
 It can be finished within one sea- son, the regional forester believed.
 Opens Up Land
 Much of the land along the pro- posed road is already held in pat ented homesteads, but with the coming of transportation, their owners may cut up their holdings into five-acre tracts or smaller and sell them to those who want to get out in the country-but want a way to drive out and back.
 The paving of the road to Aux Bay involves widening the present gravel road to 30 feet and blacktop- ping a width of g feet, giving a four-foot shoulder on each side, such as is the case now on the road to the airport.
 The distance is about AZ miles.
 The Thane road, also about Az miles, was widened last year, and needs only to be paved. This is the case with the Douglas Road as well. It is between two and three miles long.
 Similar improvements for roads around Sltka and Ketchikan are in- cluded in the special appropriation, which will allow more money from the regular appropriation to be allowed to smaller towns, such as Wrangell, Petersburg, Cordova and other small centers.

KOHL CALL, CRUSADE
TO BE CONDUCTED BY
LOCAL BOY S0UTS

All Boy Scout troops in the Cas-
tineau District will conduct a roll
cali during the month of October
and part of November in conjunc-
ton with the National Boy Scout
program.
This roll call, in its national
scope, has three-fold purpose;
the roll call itself, the fall analy-
sis of the individual units progress
towards rs crusade goals and the
national uniform inspection. Under
the roll call, all troops are trying TO
enroll as many boys as possible IN
the scouting movement. The cru
SADIE goals are to teach the boys
the aims of democracy and to have
the scouts earn as many AWARDS
or badges that they can.
1t is hoped that the accomplish
ment of the roll call will give slim
ulation to active program and ad-
yancement work within the scout
ing units of the Gastineau District.

Days of Unrest
Cincinnati Enquirer

These are the days of the great unrest From one
coast to the other and women, boys and girls are
wondering How long" they ask, will it be-? When
it comes they know, the call to arms will take some
one near and dear To some it will spell tragedy 10
Others only adventure.
To youngsters who ready = as most OF them
are these days for venturng from the shelter OF
home onto the highways of the world, the call to
service offers challenge. They'll see new sights,
meet new companions live new lives But to most or
the mothers and fathers the story is different one
To them a period of military service oftens means
shattering Of dreams they've held through the years
This feeling too often is founded on fiction rather
than on fact. Few of would select army service
for our children in times of war But such service
often instils virtues which at home, never could
The Daily Alaska empire. [volume] (Juneau, Alaska) 1926-1964, 1950-09-23

hope to do Discipline, in itself, is opportunity
an educational advantage which too many fond
mothers and fathers can't won't offer their off
spring Mill tary service puts the boy-or the girl
face to face with the world But it protects him in
the process 1t sees that he gets food clothes
and shelter no how inefficient his own efforts
might be.
ONLY 81 nall percentage of those called to uni
form, ever will see the dangers of battle Others will
serve in capacities equally important, but far less
hazardous For each in the trenches many must
labor in serv ices of supply. Physically, these even
safer in the Army than they might be at home.
So while this is the time of the great unrest,
il is not nee essarily time of great encouragement.
For those wi go-and for those who reman-the
pain of separa ton may be sharp indeed But we'd
all feel better if we magnify the possible good which
will accrue and minimize the dangers Military service
as hundreds of thousands of veterans tell you
often isn't as bad reality it is in the pictures!

He recalls that in the late 'thirtles,
he felt sure war would come. But
now. he feels the SWEETS are not
ready, and never will get to the
point of readiness so long as the
western world continues its rapid
movement toward joint defense
And he seems to be aware that
the television cameras play Their
part in this effort. When the bright
lights go up, in the Council cham
Der at Lake Success, Jebb winces
inwardly and wonders if some men,
beers will now ask to speak VINO
had no intention of speaking.
But ou.mardly, he shows NO slgan
of displeasure at a modern medium
which is accomplishing what the
European powers failed to accom-
plish in the days of the League
can public to its role in information
of MISUNDERSTANDING the Amerl-
al affairs.
AS for his being star OF Amerl-
can television, Jebb reflects with
wry smile that, if the debate
switched from Kreoa to Ireland, his
popularity might vanish over night.
