ANOTHER STAB IN THE BACK

The removal of Secretary of Alaska Llewellyn Williams is the latest in the long series of Gruening burgess although the governor insists, with wde-eyed innocence that he had nothing do" with Williams dismissal Ananas a pker.
 We find ourselves unable to swallow that denial. It is unthinkabie that any governors mand would be dismissed except that governors recommendation Certainly such removal could occur without his knowledge and consent.
 It tS.is no secret that Williams has long been a painful thorn in the gubernatorial side. The United States Senate's prompt confirmation of Lew Wil- liams appointment in 1949 in unfattering trast to the delayed and hoty opposed confirmation of Gruening.
 Too, Secretary of Alaska, Williams served as acting governor during Gruenings frequent and tended absences from the Territory It while Williams was acting in that capacity that he par tcipated in the appointment of Neil Moore to suc ceed the late Frank Boyle as Auditor of Alaska This action effectively thwarted any plans the gov might have had to fill that important post with one of his yes-men. And Moore's subsequent per formance of. his duties has completely justified Williams judgment
 When asked to enlarge the circumstances sur rounding Williams removal the governor replied: q don't think it would do Lew much good"
 We'll, it probably wouldn't, since the President has already effected the dismissal, but doubt that

300,000 Red Salmon Eggs Planted in
 Barren Kodiak Lakes

Approximately 300,00O fertilized red salmon eggs have been planted in two barren lakes on Afognak | and Kodiak islands, according to c. L. Anderson, director of the Alaska Department of Fisheries.
 And over 100000 eggs are being eyed out" at a station at Port Williams on Afognak Island. These are to be planted later in Pauls Lake tributaries. Already planted are S5,OOO.
 The work is being done by Clin- ton Stockley, watershed manage ment supervisor, and Derrick Cooter, watershed management engineer. They will conduct sur vey of 16-waterfall barricade in the outlet stream from Pauls Lake where it is hoped that the falls can be by-passed through a series of blasted pools, Anderson said.
 If this eau be done, it will be
 less expensive than the construc-
 tion of a fish ladder, Anderson
 explained.
 Stockley has already planted 100000 fertilized red salmon eggs in Fraser Lake tributaries on Ko- diak Island Fraser Lake is close to Karluk Lake, one of the major red salmon producing streams. It is barren due to a stream barrier also.
 The department will have five
 years in which to complete the engineering work in order that
 the returning red salmon may complete their cycle.
 Experience shows that when stream barriers are removed the salmon will return to the stream in which they were born
 Last December 50,000 king sal mon eggs were planted in Montana Creek and it is expected the re- turning fish will show up there in three to four years.
 Anderson returned last weekend from Kodiak and Bristol Bay where he met with fishermen.

In the Public Interest!
Cincinnati Enquirer


 Whatever motivated the American Federation of Labor in dissolving the United Labor Policy Con- mittee, believe the action was in the public inter- est. William Green President of the AFL. said that the mission of the committee had been completed, explaining that the group had been established late last year to deal with emergency problems arising from the defense program" His counterpart in the Congress of Industrial Organizations Phillip Murray disagreed and expressed regret that the AFL had scutted the method of cooperation that has won the acclaim not only of union members but of the general public"
 Actually the United Labor Policy Committee was set up rather hastily pressure group to weld the concerted strength of organized labor in the organ- zation of the defense program. It action taken in understandable self-nterest, but the re- suits good and the career of the committee hardly was heroic.
 President Green seems to believe that the ulti- mate unifcation of labor should proceed through another channel, and agree with him. While the United Labor Policy Committee represented degree of unificaton, at least temporary alliance, at the top of the two major labor movements, it exerted the disadvantages of one big labor union upon the public veal without contributing any of the potential advantages thereof
 For instance, the United Labor Policy Committee did not itself with any of the vexing prob Ism of jursdctional disputes and interunion raid ing" which at various times have jeopardized the defense program About aM it did as matter of fact, was sulk and walk out oh the essential task of defense mobilization planning.
 There are other and more constructive uses for the strength and abilities of the great union move ment.

Federal Employees Hold Fifsi Fall
 !Luneheon Meeiinu

Only 30 members were present at the first fall meeting of the Nation al Federation of Federal Employees held in the Gold Room of the Bar anof Hotel Wednesday noon.
 The luncheon meeting was presid- ed over by President J. T. Petrich and Jim Brown, vice president, in- troduced by B. Frank Heintzleman, who spoke on Juneau's new Mem orial Library. saa
 Petrich expressed regret of the small attendance at the meeting. He announced that the 25 percent cost-of- living allowance, which Con gress threatened to cut from sal aries in the Territory recently, was dead issue at least for another year. He pointed out the efforts of the federation in defeating the move i and Delegate E. L. Bartlett's fine work in behalf of the federal en- ployees. The American Federation of Labor in Juneau also contributed valuable assistance, he said. Heintzleman, speaking on Ju- neau's new library said:
 "The building is now nearly com pleted and represents the finest united effort on the part of the peo- pie have ever had the pleasure of seeing"
 He said that efforts had been made for 20 years to get a library for Juneau but it was not until 1946- 47 when service clubs and religious groups got behind the move that the library finally became an inn minent reality.
 HeintZleman was appointed gen. eral chairman with James Ryan and B. D. Stewart board members.
 Over $82,O0o was raised by popu- lar subscription for the building. He said that construction costs have exceeded the subscriptions due to the fact that retaining wall be- hind the building was found neces- sary to protect property adjoining. He invited persons who have not; already contributed, to assist in de-. fraying this added expense.
 He said the building would be ready to move into in about 10 days but added dedication ceremonies will not be held until around Oct.S1.
 Old books and old furniture from the former library will probably have to be used for the present, I{eintzleman said, until funds are available to replace them. He said the building has a juvenile and adult reading room. office spac2 and work room besides the main library.
 Heintzleman touched on the circu- lating library which carries books to 20 villages and towns of south eastern Alaska. He said he hoped the Memorial Library could be a central point of a regional library system which would give people of the small towns access to it's books. He pointed out that Juneau's library was the first and only library build ing in Alaska-used exclusively as q library.
 His dream. he said was to see such library system in every di- vision in the Territory for benefit of outlying towns in all the divisions

McCarran is an old man. At 75 the day is past when he will have to hear arms to defend his coun- try. He wants war, and judging by his actions he wants it right away. He forgets that money is a lot cheaper than lives. He does not realize that time is running so strongly on our side that the So- viet may be tempted to precipitate war to stop our progress in Eur ope.
 Nor does the aged Senator from Nevada realize that war gets us nowhere. No longer can there be decisive wars. The wars of today are almost certain to end in stale mates, in which both sides lose, in which civilization is wrecked, and from the ashes is likely to emerge the hopelessness of men, the des- peration of men, and the very Communism which the Senator says he wants to prevent,

while we have been reading abou the diplomatic train wrecks il . Europe, actually most of our train have been coming in on time ane the American people by their pol icies and their patience have bull up a tremendous success story.
 Three big things are happenin: today in Europe and in the world

 3. The man in the street in Eur ope has been given new hope. This may be more important than either of the two other factors. For when men lack hope they turn to the phony promises of Communism Today, however, the Marshall plan, plus various gestures from the American people such as de- mocracy letters and the American Legion's tide of toys, plus the fact that a new European army is now camped alongside the Iron Cur tain. has given the man in the street new hope.
 When men have hope they fight to defend themselves. When they lack hope they can see little use in fighting.
 A Bleak Christmas
 Four years ago I spent Christmas in France and New Years in Italy. It was the most depressing holi- day season of my entire life. Paris was dark, the street lights barely flickering, candles were used part time in the hotels; there was all most no heat, food was scarce, and worst of all people had lost hope. Sometimes it seemed that they went through the routine of liv- ing merely because they had be- come accustomed to the habit of living.
 Even the great cathedrals and palaces which had looked down on conquerors and revolutions looked gloomy and weary. Even they seemed to lack hope.
 That was the crucial winter the Communists chose for their dead, ly strikes and riots to take, over western Europe, a winter before we had adopted the Marshall plan or begun to send postwar food l That was also the winter when the people, usually ahead of i their government, sent western | Europe token of encouragement | through the friendship trains.
 That was the winter of 1947 But this year it is so different! l I had walked through the dis nal, drizzly, darkened streets of Rome and Paris in l947 remem-

bering the surge ana tumult of
 other years, wondering whether
 the old energy could ever return whether the people would ever l smile again.
 We'll, the old energy, the zest for living has returned. Western Eur ope is smiling again. not only smi-
 ling, but increasingly ready to de- fend itself. Time is running on cur side.
 Plenty of Mistakes This optimistic report does not mean that we have not made mis-
 takes, or that the job is finished
 We have made plenty of mistakes,
 and the two most important are: l. We have failed to sell Europe on a United States of Europe. Here at home we have shown how
 48 different states can apply the
 principle of liberalization live un-
 der a central government; yet in Europe We have failed completely
 to put this across. And this is the only longterm solution for Europe's. economy.
 ?. We have failed to sell the Declaration of Independence in Europe. Though we live under the greatest political document known to man, we have failed to get Eur opean governments to adopt the principle of equality" of econom- ic opportunity. The old economic class system still prevails in Eur ope: and until workers have a chance to better themselves econ omically, Communism will contin- ue to hold some adherents to it's phony philosophy.
 Thus our greatest failures have been in failing to sell Europe the two basic principles of American ism.
 There is also another failure and danger.
 Wage War Now
 It comes from the Senator Mc- Carrans, the Senator McCarthy's and those behind them who want ! to get us into a preventative war. The American public does not re- alize it, but their speeches give Europe the jitters. For Europeans realize what the Wage War Now" clique do not-namely that time is running on our side.
 They know that the longer we can hold off war, the more we can build up our defenses in west ern Europe, the more we can sol- idify sentiment behind us and the more we can benefit from restless ness behind the Iron Curtain.
 That is one reason for the pres ent barrage of friendship balloons to the people of Poland and of They also need to pc given hope. And the demotion of Rudolf Slansky as leader of the Czech Communist party is one indication of the political ferment inside that country-a ferment hat must be encouraged.
 Yet instead of aiding this fer nent, Senator McCarran frankly admitted in the secrecy of the Sen- Appropriations hearings that he considered war inevitable, there ore did not want to spend money m penetrating the Iron Curtain.

BY LUX VIRGIL OVERBEA FOR AMP

Ray (Sugar) Robinson is favor
ed to take the middleweight cham
pionship from Jake LaMotta when
they meet here Feb. IA at the Chi
cago Stadium in a 15-round title
bout.
Both men are here to wind up
training for their sixth fight, al
though the first one for a crown.
Robinson has won four of the pre-
vious five, and Jake, one. LaMot-
ia is the only man to ever defeat
the welterweight champion.
The advance gate already has
reached the 100000 mark, ac-
cording to the Internationl Boxing
club, promoters of the bout. It will
be televised and broadcast. LaMot-
ia will receive As percent Of the
gate and Robinson, Is percent.
Before entering the ring, how
ever, LaMotta will have to over
come the battle of weight. He has
requested the privilege of weigh
ing naked if he cannot make the
weight with boxing trunks on.
If he fails to make the weight
of 100 pounds by noon of the day
of the fight, he will automatically
forfeit the title, but the fight will
go on. In this case Robinson will
be new middleweight champion.
If Robinson wins, he will be
forced to give up his welterweight
championship. If he loses, nothing
will change.
This bout is expected to be a
fight to the finish : LaMotta re-
quested that the fight will not be
stopped unless the fighter, him
self, agrees to it. He will have a
physician, DR.. Philip Burnori, in
his corner as a second.
