MAYOR OF PELICAN,
HIS SON, MISSING
in SHIP W RECK
HeIvig Christinson, Lone
Survivor, Badly Frozen,
Is Flown 10 Juneau

"a man learns to pray when
he's sure there's no hope for him,
Helvig Christinson, survivor OF the
shipwrecked Dixie, said through
blackened and swollen lips this
morning from his bed at st. AIMS
Hospital. He is suffering with
frozen feet and hands.
Christinson, machine shop OPP
orator at Pelican, left a week ago
today with Fred Wetche and IA
year-old Fred Junior, who are stu
missing. to go on a hunting trip
to Bingham Cove on the west SIDE
of Chichagof Island. They planned
to return last Wednesday. Wetche,
mayor of Pelican and head OF the
Trollers Union there, owned the
Dixie.
I'VE were underway in heavy
seas when the boat gave a lurch
and the motor stopped" Christin-
son explained. I'VE found that a
battery had been thrown against
the carburetor and broke it. The
anchor wouldn't hold and we start
ed to drift toward Yakobi Rock at
about Is miles an hour. Then we
struck reef. 1t took only about
25 minutes for the seas to wreck
the boat.
1--WE took to the skifl. 1t swampec
and we struck out for the rock. l
made it and thought I saw the boy
but evidently he didn't make II.
The wind was high and the waves
pounded. 1t was cold.
q thought I was COLE after
three days Of freezing u that
rock SO I gave up and started TO
pray. After awhile l heard a mo-
tor and started to yell Betty and
Marie Mork and Tom Allaine in
their troller heard me and took me
in. That was Friday night. I should
be out there looking for Fred and
Buddy" he said YEARLY. Mrs.
Christinson is with him.
Today an intense search is con-
tinuing by the Coast Guard cutter
CaAoone and five or more local
boats searching the shorelineS in
the vicinity. A CG plane from
Annette patroled the area yes

New Amendment
Aids NiSei

WASHINGTON, d. c.. Oct. r
AS much as $50O0.00o worth of pro-
perty will be returned to Nisei under
a new amendment to the trading
with the enemy law the national
japanese American Citizens league
said last weekend.
The amendment, the United Press
reported, was passed by Congress to
aid Nisei, especially in Hawaii, In
obtaining property seized by the
government after the outbreak OF
war with Japan.
The amendment, the JACL Ado
added, will apply only to persons
who possessed American citizenship
at all times after Dec. 7. l941. even
though they may have been enemy
citizens at the same time. The new
Interpretation Of the law, however
will not apply where there is proof
of collaboration with the enemy the
JACL ADO concluded.
The new ruling does not apply
to Issei or other enemy citizens, or
foreign nationals residing in enemy
territory during the war

YESLER VOTERS
SEEK OKAY OF
BOND ISSUE Is

Under the Craftsmanship of Mrs
Ruth Manca, a committee of leaders
in the Yesler area will conduct a
campaign to urge support of bond
issue No. Is that will give Seattle a
long overdue new public library.
Voters will be asked to pass upon
the S million dollar bond issue at
the Nov. election. If approved,
the funds will provide a modern,
efficient building at the site Of
the present building between Ma
Olson and Spring Sts., and Fourth
and Fifth Aves., and five branch
library buildings.
The library has been hampered by
inadequate facilities during the last
few years in carrying out many SER
vices that it is otherwise prepared
to give Seattle residents, including
development of adult education SER
vices. its music department, its lib
rary Of loan pictures, and its collec-
ton of films for public use. During
the last six years, users of the lib
rary have increased 100 percent.
The present central building. built
in 1900 to accommodate a popula-
ton of $4,000 is Anticipated and
run down, according to engineers
who have been called in to study
the building. If new building is not
built, a considerable sum will be
necessary to refurbish the building;
the 1949 earthquake damage was so
extensive that repairs would be lex
travagantly" costly.
Mrs. Ruby Chow will be co-chair-
man with Mrs. Ruth Manca for this
area.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Oct. Especial to
Northwest Tines - The National
Council of the JACL. composed OF
official delegates representing indi-
vidual chapters of the JACL, voted
unanimously last Sunday to author
ize the AIDES Washington office to
seek amendment of the Evacuation
Claims Act in an effort TO speed up
payments of claims.
At present, administration of the
program is begged down by insuffi-
cient appropriations by Congress and
inefficient handling Of the claims
program by the Dept. of Justice. re-
sulting in gloomy forecasts that the
evacuation claims problem will not
be completed in less than so years.
Two significant proposed changes
we're unanimously approved in prin-
ciple by the delegates at the JACL
National Convention:
D-To obtain straight indemnity
for all evacuees. This indemnity
would be additional to the present
claims filed for actual evacuation
losses in that there would be no
inconsistency in filing for both.
However, no claimant would be en-
titled to the full amount of his ac-
tual claim in the event he also re-
ceived the straight indemnity; pay
ment of his claim would be limited
to difference on and above the in
demnity. II the claim was for less
than the indemnity, the claimant
should take the indemnity and re-
lease his claim for actual losses.
The claimant would be expected TO
choose the form of relief most IA
vOrable TO him. Acceptance of the
indemnity wouldn't preclude pur-
suing a claim for larger amount,
under this proposal. The amount
of the indemnity to be sought was
tentatively mentioned as $500 for
those over Is at the time of eva
cuation, and $iO0 for those Of
younger age. However, these
amounts are highly tentative and
subject to revision.
(2)-TO authorize the Attorney Ge-
neral to make fast payment of
$50 on claims already filed in
which preliminary survey indi-
Gates that the claimant has good
prima-facie claim for a larger
amount. II the claim should be ap-
proved for a smaller amount on
final adjudication. the claimant
would, of course, be under 0bliga-
ton to refund the difference to the
U. s.
In addition to the above proposals,
the delegates also approved sugges-
tons to further amend the Evacua-

sixth. The unbalanced nature and
diversity of cultures as we'll as lack
of understanding and appreciation
thereof, has been the cause Of fric-
ton in international life.
These problems have been handed
down to us still unsolved and we are
finding it extremely difficult to meet
and solve them as so many complica-
tions have entered into the picture.
The sharpening of the theological
conflicts has divided the world into
two hostile camps and the A and
H-bcmbs have intensified the fiSsion
with no foreseeable hopes for amity
However, their solution is para
mount, for scientists tell us that In
the event of another war-which Is
not absolutely unlikely-the results
would be too dreadful for words.
The existing peace machinery is
not only proving inadequate TO the
task but is also faced with a crisis
of its own existence The tragedy Is
that, in one sense. the cold war is
being prevented from turning into
a hot war for the reason that one
side is seemingly superior in armed
strength to the other. It Is an armed
peace, a situation not unfamiliar TO
men. It is indeed tragic that such
should be the case after having gone
through a most horrible war.
And so in answer % the problem
Of international peaO~ n the Atomic
Age. the logical step would be the
moulding of world public opinion for
the creation of world government
through Improvement Of the existing
international peace machinery In
order TO crystalize the moral and
ethical forces together with the ma
terial forces for a concerted effort
toward world peace with justice
which includes the concept Of peace
full change. This idea is so aptly des-
cr:bed In the Preamble to the Pre-
liminary Draft of a World Constt-
icentiNacd ifem Page y

ton Claims act to clarity the con-
text of the Act, using such language
as to make it clear that the Act is
intended to be literally construed as
remedial and beneficial legislation.
The "go-ahead sign" to the Wash
ington ADO office does not mean
that the legislation will be passed
or actually sought. However, if pre-
sent efforts to obtain a speed-up
from Congress and the Dept. of JUS
tice on the basis of the present Act
prove fruitless, then the ADO will
seek to have the Act amended.

Aside from these so-called official
or political means, mankind has also
relied upon private or unofficial me-
thods for the creation of better I'M
Outstanding and international good
will for the purpose of laying the
foundations for successful Internal
ional political cooperation.
As to whether or not man has
made any progress in the establish
ment of peace, interpretations differ.
However, the following observation
may be made In the light of past
experiences.
First. Social thinking, including the
moral and ethical together with
their concrete expressions, has lag
ged behind mans phenomenal pro-
gress in scientific and chronological
development. Mans physical advan-
cement has run away from his social
progress, which phenomenon social
scientists sometimes refer to as the
social lag. This discrepancy has been
the cause of much friction and strife
in that man has been unable to
control or adjust himself to the ply
steal forces of his own creation. In
other words, physical forces have do
minated and overwhelmed his sense
of ethical and moral values.
Second. 1t is also clear that there
has been an over-emphasis upon
national sovereignty with all its con-
comitant evils of selfishness. greed
pride. prestige superiority. imperial
ism. etc. which have hindered CO.
operation among nations.
Third. The respect of human rights
and freedom has been neglected.
Fourth. The disparity in economic
development and lack of equal OPP
portunity in the struggle for exist
ence and world markets have led to
international strife.
