III Charter Ships
 For Alaska Supply May Be Withdrawn

WASHINGTON, (P)-Rep. Tol- lefson R-Wash) said today that unless Congress extends the law permitting charter of war-built vessels to private operators II cargo vessels serving Alaska must be returned to the government in 16 days.
 The special law under which the Maritime Commission char tered vessels to operators of AL aska shipping lines expires June 30. Tollefson urged the House Merchant Marine Committee to approve legislation to extend the law.
 'I am supporting this extension of authority to charter vessels op- erating in the Alaskan trade be- cause I realize there is a short age of this type of cargo ship used between the United States and the Territory" Tollefson told the committee.
 CT firmly believe that regular service between continental Uni ted States and Alaska is absolute ly essential in the interest of our national security.
 eff these ships are withdrawn from service on June 30 it will impose a hardship upon the resi- dents of the Territory and will stop the flow of supplies to can neries in Alaska.

D. {. Elm Disease Proqran

The District and National Cap
Iital Parks laid plans yesterday for
a spot check on the Dutch elm
disease program In an area OF
Northwest Washington containing
.250 elms.
The area includes sections OF
Albemarle, Chesapeake, Harrison

The location was selected at a
meeting in the Office of Assistant
Engineer Commissioner Carlin H
Whitesell, who will receive a re-
port on the situation in the next
few weeks.
Col. Whitesell explained the
check is being made to see
whether the system Of combating
the tree malady is adequate, OF
whether there are additional
cases of the disease which have
not been spotted.
The disease caused the loss
yesterday of a 60-foot elm in front
of the White House. It was
planted during the Grant ad-
ministration on the Pennsylvania
avenue sidewalk.
National Capital Parks en-
ployeS cut it down, sawed it into
sections, hauled it away and
burned it. Ofiicials said they had
not found any other infected trees
in the immediate area.
