Sugar Ray Robinson's $4,000 Gift
Helps Equip Norway Cancer Center

OSLO, Norway, Dec, ia new
chapter in Norwegian medical his
tory was recently begun when
"Care' turned over to the Radium
Hospital at Oslo $4,000 worth
Of American made medical instru-
ments and laboratory equipment,
which had been purchased with a
donation by Middleweight Champ
ion wSugar Ray" Robinson to the
Damon Runyon Cancer Fund.
The $4,000 was part of total
of 100000 constituting the net
proceeds of Robinson's European
tour which the boxer presented to
the Damon Runyon Fund. The
sum will be equally divided by the
Runyon Fund among six Euro
pean cancer centers, and the Oslo
institution was the first to re-
ceived its share in order to help
equip the new buildings of the
Radium Hospital erected with
funds raised by popular subscrip-
tion in every town and hamlet of
Norway.
Scare" was chosen by the hos
pital to procure the equipment in
the United States because of the
unique purchasing and shipping
facilities the non-profit food and
textile package organization has
been able to develop in six years
of operations. "Care's" facilities
have on previous occasions been
utilized by U. S. government
agencies, such as the State De-

sioner for Germany, in the pur-
chasing of similar equipment for
cancer and other medical and
scientific institutions in countries
abroad. In the case of the Radium
Hospital, "Care's" task was COM
plicated by the fact that each item
had to be purchased according to
highly specific requirements of the
Oslo institution.
Arrival Of the equipment in Oslo
was made the occasion of special
ceremonies, at which Miss Aaslaug
Ashland, Minister Of Social Wei
fare, and DR.. Reidar Eker, director
of the Radium Hospital, expressed
their thanks in the name of the
Norwegian people. DIR. Eker point
ed out that "most of these instru-
ments are the first Of their kind
in Norway. They will be put to
immediate and vital use, and thus
will be of inestimable value aginst

Bertram D. Smucker, Care"
Mission chief in Norway, in making
the actual representation, lauded
"Sugar Ray" Robinson for "the
goodwill and generosity displayed
in his sizable gift to the Damon
Runyon Fund and consequently to
Norway, given by him in truly
humanitarian desire to fight an
enemy against whom all mankind
is united"

BROOKLYN, N. Y.-The Jackie
Robinson bid for $4,000 next year
has just reached here to the Brook
lyn office and they seemed quite
surprised" that Jackie has in mind
so much, which represent $4,000
over his present salary.
"The. Robinson bushes IS all new

of the Dodgers. 'He has not dis
cussed his 1862 contract with this
office"
Besides lifting Robinson to $780,
900 would require permission of
the office of salary sterilization

Brooklyn club in 1851.

Reds DispIeased With Japanese Treafy
WASHINGTON (AP)

WASHINGTON (AP) - The United States today invited sev- eral nations to meet in San Fran cisco, Sept 1, to complete and sign a peace treaty with Japan.
 The invitations were accom- panied by copies of a treaty draft jointly sponsored by the United States and Great Britain. The invitations specified the conference would be held "on the terms of that draft.
 Russia was among the coun- tries invited but officials here regarded ii as virtually cer- tain that Moscow would reject the bid. The Soviet Union has sharply criticized not only some parts Of the proposed treaty. but also the way ii was drawn up.

 Full extent of Lenhart's in- juries could not be learned to- day but it is known that he suf- fered multiple fracture of the leg and possible concussion. It is thought that he must have been thrown from the open door on his side of the plane, which was on a steep hillside, and that part of his injuries may have been caused by fall down the mountain.
 Mrs. Mary Friske, MT. Len hart's mother, left Seward yes terday by plane to go to her sons bedside in Cordova.
 Pliers who have seen the wreck from the air say that the plane seems to be total loss. It is a new plane, flown in by Lenhart a few weeks ago.

Flood Damage Mounts In Sf. Louis
ST. LOUIS (AP)

ST. LOUIS (AP) - The un- tamable Missouri River headed toward a crest near it's juncture with the swollen Mississippi to- day, crumbling protecting lev ees in it's drive toward St. Louis.
 Army engineers predicted that all dikes at the confluence of the two great rivers would be swept away within the next 43 hours.
 The Mississippi, carrying the muddy Missouri waters which created the nations first billion dollar flood, is expected to crest at 40.5 feet at St. Louis Mon day. That would be the highest mark recorded here since 1344.
 Most of the 300 people living at West Alton at the crossroads of the rivers remained Skepti- cal, however, even as the waters poured over the last remaining barrier protecting the communi- ty.
 The Coast Guard was stand ing by with boats to evacuate the die-hards who through the years have become accustomed to floods. Some merely moved groceries and other possessions to second floors of their homes.

lCeileNQOuS importance or kl some 40 or 50 years ago. |ere were no oil burning en- fes, period. Steamers burned Fl; factories, mines, canneries, Fn sawmills used coal as the lin source of power. Except a few Wood-burning river Rts, transportation depended coal. Wood was practical to F for heat only in the smallest ceilings or the tinieSt stores. |al was the number one logisti- problem of Alaska develop fnt, since every steamer to \ Territory had to carry pugh coal for the trip both ys, and usually, a major Rre of the cargo to be dis |Rrged was coal also. Naval other vessels stationed for riod of time in Alaska had to ve their coal sent up to them, lally by the sack, from Puget lnd and British Columbia hes. Moreover, certain places Nome had no source of Iural fuel whatever, either cd or coal, and had to import Fry speck of their fuel for Uer, light, and heat, from nts nearly 5000 miles away. Ret, almost everyone knew t there really was coal in hska plenty of it. The ch was a two-Way dilemma:
 deposits on the easily acces- le coastal points were unsuit- e for steam boilers, while
 better coals of the Interior Fded a railroad to carry them And that's where Seward fin
 returns to the story. The hska Central Railroad, intend first to carry supplies to the d fields of the Panama, now lame even more important be- SC it was learned Nat the }jected route passed right ough the finest and largest l deposits in Alaska, at Mata- ska, and near Healy.
 The only trouble with these coveries was that they were
 big, too vast in importance. ile Ballaine and his success 5 had hoped, even expected, t enough coal would be avail e along the route to provide
 the needs of the railroad it. and perhaps an additional ply to sell to the small Alas market, they were totally un- pared to handle the economi-
 implications of millions of 5 looming almost within their SD. For it actually seemed al
 time that the Susitna Valley osits might dominate the fife Coast coal market.
 he reason for this can be bet understood today than 1t was k in the early 1900's. It's no prise to us that Alaska is Ter to Japan or the Phil nes or Hawaii, than are the
 Is of San Francisco, Seattle, tland, or even Vancouver,
 Applying the principle of
 Great Circle to Pacific an transportation, tiny Sew
 Alaska, might easily be-
 e the greatest port on the fife if. IF we could de r the necessary coal! The
 ness of the US. Pacific fleet
 e was big enough to make
