NO PRIVATE CLUB

Senatorial reaction to Senator Fulbrights sugges- ton for a sweeping investigation into governmental morals is at all surprising But it is discouragng says the St. Louis StarTimes.
 Senator Ernest w. Mcfarland Ariz), Democratic floor leader expressed that reaction. He openly re- buked Fubrght his suggestion-as far it related to Congress. Saying Fulbrght had asked for an 1n- uury into the ethical standards of the Senate Mc- Farland commented T regret that statement Of this kind should be made the floor of the Senate
 Why, in the name of common sense should he regret it? Is the Senate really so sacrosanct that every member comes into it with automatic guar antee of high ethical conduct? Does elevation to the upper chamber of the august Congress insure that man is angelic?
 There are disturbing evidences that the moral level in Washington whole is anything but high one Influence -peddlers to flourish. Fav- oritism the order of the day Corruption seems at times almost an accepted thing. And there is no slightest evidence that the Senate stands like tall mountain above the swamp that surrounds 1t.

Ray5urn's Ghost Troops

What speaker Sam Rayburn had in mind when he told Congress that non Chinese" troops were in Manchuria, was not Russian troops, but four divisions of Rus sian-trained Japanese troops. .. There has long been small con- tingent of Russian troops in Man. churia used for purposes of turn ing Russian equipment over to the Chinese. But there have never been any Russian combat troops in Manchuria, and are not now. Much more dangerous is the we'll substantiated report that Is divis- ions of the Red army are massed around the edge of Siberia, inclu- ding 5000 to 4,000 planes plus four airborne divisions. This is the chief reason why the joint chiefs of staff have hesitated about bombing Chinese bases. They figure that if China is directly attacked, her mu- tual assistance pact with Russia will be invoked and the might of the Red army will be thrown into battle-possibly in airborne land- ing operations against Japan-sig- nificantly, Secretary of State Ach- eson has come nearer siding with the MacArthur thesis of retaliation
 
 against China than the more eau tiouS joint chiefs of staff. Acheson has always favored a naval block ade of Chinese ports, at one time even advocated bombing these ports as lesson to China for thumbing it's nose at the United Nations. Prime Minister Attlee, when in Washington, had a hard time combating Acheson's argu- ments on such policy.

Marshall Lining Up Carpenters For Coming Work

Frank Marshall, general repre- sentative for the United Brother hood of Carpenters, returned by Pacific Northern Airlines plane Monday from Anchorage.
 Marshall visited Kodiak, Homer and Anchorage in an effort to line up local carpenters for the coming seasons construction work which Marshall said will be vastly in creased this year over other years operations.
 Policy of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters is to furnish as many local workers as possible before i'm porting help from the states. He stressed that his union was re- ceiving numerous applications from outside for employment, and some workers were even now coming north, but that the construction season would not be under way yet for another month.

On the contrary there have been signs that nll may not be well with the Senate itself There the stories of the strange favors Senator Mccarthy of Wisconsin got from Lustron Corp, for nstance-the $lOOOO for a pamphlet he didn't write, the checks he had torn up for him at the track There is the story of the messy Maryland senatorial election of last year. There the many ausons to possible senatorial pressures the REC All these would seem to be indication enough that any investigation into the morals of government should be investigation into the House and Senate we, the executive offices.
 Somehow the senators seem always convinced that they run a private little club in. Washington, an exclusive gentlemans peerage It is time they remember that the Senate is public property and that senators too must live in the goldfish bowl of investigation.

LARGE HOUSING
 PROJECT MAY BE
 BUILT AT KODIAK

Mayor Lee Bettinger of Kodiak, Capt. William F. Wesanen and Capt. L. J. Dow of the Kodiak Naval Station, conferred with Federal Housing Administration Director c. c. Staples here Tuesday in regard to 40 single family dwelling units proposed for Navy and civilian per- sonnel at the Navy base there.
 The dwellings, if approved by FILA, are to be built in the city of Kodiak which will furnish the utilities. Construction cost is esti- mated roughly at about $5,000000 A number of private contractors are interested in sponsoring the con- struction and several have drawn preliminary plans. If the deal goes through, it will be the first large military housing in Alaska that will be FILA insured, Staples said.
 Paul Sutton, chief underwater and George Bond, chief valuator, of the FILA office here, will ac- company the Naval party,t to Kodiak today to make investigations. It is planned that Naval representatives will make trip to Washington, DC. next week to present the urgent need for the housing.
 Alaska Pul-iic Works has approved expenditure of $637 800 for sewers and water supply which will include the housing area. The water supply project involves construction of a large storage reservoir and distribu- tion lines. Preliminary plans by Hubbell and Waller, Seattle engin- eers for the project, have been ap- proved and it is expected that bids can be called by June, Bettinger said,
 Bettinger plans to be here until l tomorrow. He also will go to Wash ington in the interests of the pro- posed housing.

failed to salute his commander-in- chief. He was also disappointed that MacArthur's accompanying party consisted chiefly of his per- sonal doctor, his valet and anlbas- sador Muccio, whereas Truman had brought the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff and a group Of ex- perts prepared to discuss import ant far Eastern problems.
 It was because Macarthur brought no experts to discuss any thing that the conference was so abbreviated.
 However, during their brief time together, Macarthur charmed Tru- man completely and the President came away singing his praises.
 Jump No. 4-Came during Mac Arthur's November drive into North Korea. This was only partial jump- over -the-traces, because Iru- man had given him the green light to dash up to the Manchurian bor- der. However, on more than three occasions the State Department re- layed warnings that the Chinese were about to attack-one from the French, one from India and several from the British.
 On another occasion, when the State Department urgently prop osed a public statement assuring the Chinese that the big dams supplying water power to all Man. churia would not be bombed, Mac Arthur sent back curt three word telegram: Do not concur"
 It was against this background of almost weekly friction between Washington and Tokyo that the cabinet seethed last week and this week over MacArthur's more re- cent trace-jumping.

A Place for Presidents
est. Louis Star-Times)


 Senator Owen Brewster (R., Me) says he Is thlnk- ing of revving his proposal to make former Presi- dents senators-at-large Adoption of the new two term constitutional amendment, he says. gives the proposal added merit. He has an obvious polnt
 From now on-at least after Harry Trumans term ends-no President will be able to occupy the Whlte House for more than years. Yet our present sys- tenn of government makes no provision TOT utlhHlh9 the experience White House occupant IS pound to have accumulated during his tenure He can run TOT Senate or House. of course after leaving the presl dencv But such a step is obviously doWnWard, ana few Presidents have ever wanted to take 1t. lhey wold be humilated to be beaten for lesser oillce after having servedIin the highest.
 Under the Brewster plan former President would mt have to run for office at all. He would auto- macav be given office space, full staff the salary of A senator and the privilege of speaking on the Senate floor He would not though, be gwen vote
 Such a scheme would present former President with natural national forum. He Would not nave to do hotel lobbying for his ideas as Herbert Hoover is noyy doing for his isolationism He would De oble to sneak freely assured always Of a hearing. And he would also thanks to the salary he would De maid and the expense account he would be glven be freed from worries about financial future

MacArthur's Political Record
Naturally Washington boiled.

Naturally Washington boiled.
 Next day, Secretary of Defense Marshall sent MacArthur a person. al cable ordering him to clear all future policy statements with him. That cable was dated March 25, and MacArthur's letter to ex- speaker Joe Martin was dated March 20, so technically at least Macarthur is in the clear.
 In the eyes of the Defense De- partment, however. he is not. For on Dec. 5, 1850, confidential orders were sent to all military comman- ders to clear all policy statements with the Defense Department in Washington Furthermore, MacAr- thur has had a history of jumping the traces, some of which is we'll known, some not, but all of which has made relations between him and his commander-in-ch more strained than at any time in re- cent American history. Here is the record:
 Jump No. In December, 1949 Macarthur let off steam to group of Republican Senators visiting him in Tokyo about sending U. s. arms and troops to Formosa. This teed off the running debate be- tween the administration and the China bloc in Congress over Chi nese intervention which continued for months.
 Jump No. 2-In the spring of 1850, MacArthur took an unauthor- ized trip to Formosa, got lot of publicity kissing Madame Chiang Kai-shek's hand, and openly dis cussed the idea of building up For most as a base. This was in com plete contradiction of the govern ment's policy, and he obviously knew it.
 Jump No. 3-After we got into the Korean war, MacArthur sent his famous letter to the veterans of Foreign Wars regarding the use of FormoSa as a base. He was rep rimanded by Truman.
 Wake ISland-It was around this time that Averell Hartman, special representative of the President went to Tokyo to soothe the Gen. erals fur. At this time Hartman got MacArthurs solemn promise to make no more policy statements without clearing them with Wash ington.

Kiwanians Observe
Newspaper Week
Pay Annual Tribute To The
Press, With Local Editors AS
Honor Guests.

The Kiwanis Club paid its annual
tribute to the newspapers at its week
ly luncheon meeting at the Hotel
Alexander on Thursday, with Gar
vim Hager, editor of the Daily Mail;
Joseph Harp, editor of the Morning
Herald; and Robert Lewis, circula-
ton manager of the Herald-Mail, as
honor guests.
The program was arranged by the
Achievement and Publicity Com
mittee, of which H. S. Douglas is
chairman, and the meeting was pre-
sided over by Walter M. Daniels, the
clubs president.
Following the introductions of the
honor guests, Mr.. Harp on behalf of
the press, made brief talk, during
which he stated:
observance of freedom of the
press should be year-around func-
ton. You must understand that
freedom of the press is freedom of
speech-freedom to tell the truth
and it affects every individual as
much as it does newspapers-who
actually are merely reporting what
you say and do.
when the press is gagged, you as
individuals will be gagged. 1 COM
mend the Kiwanis Club for annual
ly paying tribute to this vital seq
ment of American living. I hope
the day will never come when we
can't say what we think. It's al
ready happened in Communist sat,
elite nations. Let's keep the gas
away from America"
A movie film with sound effect

shown and it was one of the most in

long time. It was based on the

erage of the story by newspaper
reporter, from the time the MISSING
