in American literature. His reason is that Russian propagandists he says, spare no effort to use American writing for their ends.
 This probably is true enough, says the Cincinnati Enquirer The favorite American writers in the Soviet Union are Howard Fast, Upton Sinclair, Jack London and Theodore Dreser all degrees to the left of center Tn fact Dreiser joined the Communist party before his death. These are just the writers that one would expect to be popular with the Russians by permission of the Ministry of Education Cor what ever it is called). Books by American or any other writers who happened to be unriendly to the Soviet Union hardly would be allowed to circulate freely where thought is so tightly controlled.
 What is significant is the fact that the Russians are evncng interest in literature even if 1t does not represent best Some of the books by the authors mentioned have sold copies up to 10 millions which means that they have been read by even greater number In comparison our interest in Russia as it might be observed through its literature is negligible So whereas the Russians undoubtedly have gained onesided impression of America through their reading we have formed own ideas of the Russian character without much to literature. Small wonder then that the relationship between the USSR and the United States bristes with miscon eptious

Sp0RTSMEN URGE PASSAGE OF WOLF
 CONTROL BILL

At meeting of the board of directors of the Territorial Sports men, Inc, held last evening, it was unanimously decided to support H. B. 118 for passage in the present Legislature
 The bill provides half of the Ter ritorial funds appropriated for pay ment of wolf and coyote bounties to be expended by the Fish and Wild life Service in support of it's pro gram for the eXtermination of wolves and coyotes in the Territory.
 Because less than half of the $100,000 appropriated for bounty has been taken up by bounty hunters, it was felt that the trained predator agents of FWS could provide con- trol where needed and do more ef- fective work.
 The Sportsmen have already all loted $500 to the FWS to supply a predator agent to control wolves in the Juneau area.
 HB. 118 came up and was laid on the table Today is the last day that action can be taken by the House to get the bill to the Senate and the board directed that each repre- sentative and senator be contacted to support the bill.

is doing nothing about it? The American people are getting tired of protecting the rest of the world"
 Rearmamept was. not in Sforza's s tailiWfck. Fdrthermore, it was not in the bailiwick of certain Ameri- cans connected with the Marshall Plan who talked to Sforza about rearmament. Both were on delicate ground because he risked offending Italian generals; Marshall Plan of ficials because they risked offend ing U. s. Ambassador James Dunn, who follows the old-fashioned diplomatic theory that you must not jog the elbow of foreign gov- einments regarding domestic poli- cies and he was reluctant to crack down on the snail-like pace of Italian rearmament.
 However, Sforza finally came up with 26-page rearmament plan which was so confidential that it was given to ECA officials in the Rome railroad station by Sforzas deputy, 50 they wouldn't be seen toe ether.
 The ECA officials sent back word that the proposed plan chiefly called for more expenditures by the al- ready overburdened American tax payer and that any real Italian rearmament plan must also provide for Italian sacrifices. More con- ferences followed, out of which was finally evolved the S4O0000,OO0 arms bill okayed by the Italian parliament last week.

U. S. FOREST SERVICE TRANSFERS AUX BAY
 DOCK TO TERRITORY

Transfer of the dock and float at Aux Bay and the short spur road leading to the dock from the Glacier Highway to the Territory of Alaska from the U. s. Forest Service was announced this morn ing by Territorial Engineer Frank A. Metcalf The transfer was eff fective Thursday.
 Metcalf said the Territory will assume permanent responsibility for the custody and maintenance of the float and dock for use by the public and National Forest. It will also maintain the U. s. Coast Guard red post lantern marker at the end of the dock, which has been kept in order by the Forest Service. The Coast Guard will continue to fur nish the oil for the light as it has done in the past.
 The float is to be extended 100 feet pending a War Department permit, Metcalf said. Improvement or this facility is necessary to pro- vide space for the increase of boats putting in at Aux Bay.
 The Aux Bay dock and float and, the spur road were constructed in 1889 as a Forest Service Civilian Conservation Corps project. Main tenance of the installation by the Forest Service is no longer feasible and for this reason it was believed practical to turn it over to the Territory.

COMMUNICATION

To the Editor, Daily Alaska En- pire:
 I read with great pleasure about the action taken by Senator Snider. Not only the people of Wasilla, but the people of all Alaska should be proud of the courageous Senator, who is not afraid to express the wishes of the common people.
 But now I wonder how many common people there are in the Territory. Looking back twenty or twenty-five years, remember how the Territory appeared then-most- ly workers, miners, prospectors, fishermen, and loggers. But now, especially in OUT Capitol City, one can hardly lay an eye on a work ing man. It seems that most of the population consists of Federal and Territorial employees.
 All available space is occupied by governmental offices. the streets are filled with shining cars bearing U. s. Govt. licenses, and we are still short of space for newly cre- ated agencies and bureaus.
 How true it is that Senator Snider was elected by the people and not by office holders. How true it is that the general wage increase ap- plies to all, BUT IN WHAT PRO- PORTION? To the big boys goes the lions share, 33e6 to 50qo, and the small fry gets whats left-if anything.
 I must once again express my profound admiration for Senator Snider. More power to him, and I wish there were more like him. The people shall not forget the origin ator of the wage increase bill, nor will we overlook the members vo- ting in favor. Our opinion of them will be expressed on future election days.
 Sincerely, (signedD Roman Ellers.

Money Wasted By Army

The new Italian arms bill can bring about a complete end of Communism here. provided Italy is ahle to get al-too-scarce steel, aluminium and copper from h e United States. For the new pro- gram should reactivate the north ern automobile and tank factories, which have been virtually idle since tie war, and wipe out Italian un- employment = the chief cause of Communism.
 However, the inside fact is lot Of money will also be wasted under Italian armament The army, for instance. still maintains huge farms. theoretically for breeding cavalry horses. Though the cavalry has long since passed from use, the army clique refuses to relinquish its vast landed estates and Minister of Defense Randolfo Pacciardi, a deyotee of David Dubinsky and the International Ladies Garment Workers, hasn't dared to buck the military hierarchy to bring about needed economies In fact, Pac- ciardi has quietly appealed to American military advisers to pres sure him for these economies.
 This illustrates in Italian bureau- cracy something which would make Senator Byrd faint Commerce Minister Ivan Matteo Lombardo. commenting privately on this bureaucrack, once remarked: T have B stenographers. If I could fire all but three of them I could get some work done, but with l3 they just get in each others way
 This bureaucracy has piled up so many government servants that 86 per cent of the social insurance raid in by the workers goes to pay for government administration. oeatedly, since the war, the Nl -ers have had their premium

Now that the government is busily engaged in creating bureaus etc, requiring large personnes to handle them, the following editorial in the Seattle Times makes interesting reading:
 Last June, the Federal Bureau of Indian Affairs had no less than 13565 employees it's payroll At that time the Indian population of the United States totaled about 100000. That makes in the neghbor- hood of one employee for every 30 Indians in the land At that rate, the affairs of the American Indians should be right well administered - too we'll one is tempted to suspect, for their own good

Gervasi's Work Effective

A few weeks before General Eisenhower's scheduled visit to Italy the walls of Rome were covered with posters reading: Ike, go home" plus other uncomplimentary remarks too filthy to be repeated here. Obviously this was the work of the Communists, but since the walls of Rome are the television sets of the Italian people the posters had their effect and nothing was being done to counteract them Finally, while the American en- basy hesitated, Frank Gervasi, the live wire chief of ECA information, got busy. He organized a commit tee of pro-American Italians which, working backstage with the ECA, concocted some of the most effec- tive posters ever seen in Italy.
 Jean Belliard, son-in-law of Edgar Ansel Mowrer and now French at tache on Eisenhower's staff, con- ceived cne brilliant idea-namely, quoting from the Moscow press at the time Eisenhower liberated Europe One set of posters there fore featured the hammer and sickle with quotes from Izvestia and Pravda hailing Ike as a great libera- tor At the bottom of the poster was the date: May, 1945. Other posters featured Ike in his Colum- bia University cap and gown, regret fully laying aside his books to don an outgrown uniform.
 Overnight, squads organized by the ECA went out, tore down the Communist posters and put up the new set. Few people had any idea who inspired the overnight change. In fact, gracious Ambassador Dunn, riding through Rome's streets the next day, remarked: You see what the Italian people do when you leave them alone?"
 For some months Gervasi, for mer Hearst newspaperman and rov-. ing correspondent for Golfers, has been putting new life into Ameri- can propaganda in Italy. Thanks to him, millions of Italian people now know what the Marshall Plan has brought to them Three of his publications are among the most in- genious in Europe. One is comic magazine called The Story of America" which is sold on news stands weekly and is Tapped up by the Italian public.
 Another is Fl Campi," or The Land," a monthly magazine for farmers which is increasing Italian agricultural output and at the same time is getting across the fact that the United States has extended great help to Italy. The third is called Illustrated Worker" a poor mans Golfers, aimed at weaning labor away from the Communists. The last-named is so popular that, in six months, it has reached newsstand circulation of 100000 and soon will become paying proposi- tion.
 Gervasis ingenuity has done great deal to give Communism it's heavy setbacks in Italy Yet, when plans for future American publicity here were recently submitted to the American embassy, Ambassador Dunn carefully struck out Gervasis proposed plans.
