Mythical NutionoIists

Your political analyst, Constantine
Brown. seems to be quite impatient for
the start of the Third World War. Day
after day he calls for shooting it out
with Russia. Neither President Tru-
mans nor Secretary Acheson's cautious
policy in the present exceptionally deli
cate international situation are salts
factory to him. Perhaps Mr.. Browns

conviction to some people, but I am
not persuaded and not convinced.
I doubt very much that the 100000
soldiers Counted by Mr.. Brown Gen.

Spain could be very much military
assistance to us in time of need. Spain.
at the present time, has no enemies
outside of her borders, and the half
million armed men are necessary to keep
the populace of that country from rising
against the dictatorial regime of It's
pint-size dictator.
In case of war these soldiers would
be of very doubtful value to us, but
dangerous in the extreme to their self
promoted generalissimo.
Mr.. Browns admiration of the mill
tary genius of Chang Kai-shek is not
surprising. Mr.. Brown has company.

by Mrs. Rosenberg's obvious anguish
I'm tough" she says, narrowing her
large brown eyes. II can be as tough
as any man. But I'm not so tough
inside"
Despite her spectacular success in the
fiercely competitive Manhattan business
world, Mrs. Rosenberg insists she is not
an ambitious woman She has never
had IAN ultimate goal" and at one time
apparently was slated for the quiet life
of businessman's wife.
During World War I, she became

World War I veteran. My son Is a
World War II veteran. So know what
it's like. When we talk of drafting 49,
year-olds, know how these women
feel. I ache with them"
Mrs. Rosenberg "drifted into" labor
relations after the illness of her father
and her husband prompted her to
go to work. Since 1924, she has had
her own labor and public relations firm.
It boasts what her friend Senator Ben
ton calls "the most distinguished list of
clients ever assembled in the United
States" It now is run by her son,
Thomas
Mrs. Rosenberg has served as regional
director of the NRA, Social Security and
War Manpower Commission. During the
war, without the burden of title" she
did numerous. special assignments for
President Roosevelt.
Her acceptance Of her present post
caused much CONSERVATION in her close
init clan. Mrs. Rosenberg is devoted
to her family-she calls her 83-year old
mother every morning and night Her
husband, New York rug dealer, was so
bitterly opposed to her taking this job
that she brought down with her only
few personal possessions, to reassure him
that home" was still in New York Be-
fore the hearings began, she went to
New York every week end to see him.
Now he comes down when he can.
Mrs. Rosenberg Is tensely eager to
prove herself in this demanding Wash
ington job. She feels not only an urgent
obligation tc the work and the country,
but "a terrific sense of personal obliga-
ton" to make good for Gen. Marshall.
When asked about the difference be-
tween working with the civilian and the
military, Mrs. Rosenberg smiles a wide
smile. do you want to know the hon
est truth? There isn't any In New York

had never had any women, or in busi-

thing. They have to get over being en-

resenting you. 1t takes time, but it can

On Barring Pearl Buck

Supt. of Schools Corning's decision
to cancel Pearl Bucks speech at
Cardoza High School because her So
called record was not clear" was
one of the most disappointing actions he
has taken.
What record is DR.. Corning talking
about? Miss Buck is one of the most
distinguished and honored writers of our
time. I think her talk was Cancelled.
not because of her record, but because.
as The Stars news report said. she has
spoken against discrimination and segre-
cation, and the school boards policy
has been to avoid having controversial
speakers"
Apparently Dr. Corning wishes to
have only those who support the present
system of segregated schools speak be-
fore D. c. High School students.
It's time more and more people spoke
out against segregation. I am one of
the high school students who went to
Central. and was just getting settled,
when the school board decided that I
had to go to a school farther from my
home because I could not sit next to a
fellow American student with brown
skin.

DISPLACED PERSON HERE AFTER ESCAp!NG
 C0MMuNiSTS TWICE

With his arrival in Juneau as a patient, karol Malinowski has been a displaced person twice because of the Communists, and must start his life over again
 In 1926 as an aftermath of the Russian Revolution in 19l7-l8. Malinowski left his home in Oren- burg, Russia, near the Caspian Sea. A Polish national born in Russia, he found it safer to leave and find employment elsewhere. He went to Tientsin, China, where he found a job as an accountant for a M. Toper, an American who dealt in furs and skins. Malinowski worked there until 1948
 But with the coming of Chinese Communists in l948, he had to travel again to save his and his wife's lives. This time Malinowski and his wife went to Camp Guiuan sponsored by the International Re- fUgee Organization of the Uni.ed Nations.
 It was in this camp that Mrs. Malinowski died g months ago. Liv- ing in tents at the camp, she died as a result of the tropical heat and rain. Motioning toward his window in St. Ann's Hospital, Malinowski said "The rain came down like that snow. It came down not fer just two or three hours at a time but for two and three weeks steady"
 Malinowski worked at Camp Guiuan as a Kitchen inspector and water pump signal man until last December. He was allowed to come to the United States in January of this year under the Displaced Act of 1948. He was brought to Juneau by the War Relief Services of the National Catholic Welfare Confer ence, New York City.
 Now nearly recovered from an accident suffered while at the 1RO camp, Malinowski is strong enough to do light work. When he learns English better, he hopes to go back to his profession as an accountant. He arrived in Juneau the last week of January by way of San Francisco.
 But most of all now, Malinowski wants to have visitors who can speak Polish or Russian and to master the English language.

Meets Until Midnight

The battle of the 50th day came to a grinding halt at one minute before midnight in the House ot Representative after a furry of reconsideration notices virtually stalled the proceedings.
 In an effort to get all possible bills into the hands of the Senate before the deadline set up by the Joint Rules, the House passed IA bills, tabled five and indefinitely postponed one.
 Three other bills were withdrawn and nine were continued in second reading on the theory that since they are expectations bills they will be accepted by the Senate after the deadline. Two bills failed to get a suspension of the rules for third reading and final vote, and nearly 20 bills on the lengthy calendar were not acted upon.
 Action Rescinded
 The reconsideration notices that ended the evening session resulted from action that first revived the Alaska Property Tax repeal bill, then stopped it cold for another day. 1 A motion in mid-evening to res cind the previous action that killed the repealer bill 12-12 carried by a 14-10 vote. The 10 Republican mem bers of the House and Democrats Franklin, Madsen, Degnan and Wells voted to rescind.
 Rep. McCutcheon then moved to indefinitely postpone the repeal bill, H. B. Al, and voted against his own motion, thus putting himself to re- consider his vote. He took advantage of this position and thus blocked further action on the bill until to- day It is doubted that the Senate will suspend it's rules to receive the bill.
 Works Both Ways Asserting that the reconsideration weapon would shoot in one direc- tion as well as another, Rep Misco- vich announced his intention to re- consider his vote on every bill passed during the remainder of the day. Shortly before midnight Misco- vich started his reconsideration proceedings on half a dozen bills. Two of them were voted at once under a suspension of the rules.
 Miscovich then moved for inn | mediate reconsideration of Mc- Cutcheon's vote on indefinitely postponing House Bill 41 and the House, by almost unanimous voice vote, ended the debacle by adjourn | ing.
 The following bills were approved by the House and sent to the Senate during the afternoon and evening. H. B. 123, defining contributions as used in the Employment Security Act.
 H. B. 124, amending the law re- lating to the Employment Security Fund to allow withdrawals from the fund to make refunds. H. B. 101, dedicating a four-rod strip along section lines for high way purposes.
