Peace Treaty Meeting

WASHINGTON, Jan. Is - Up -
Rep. Mitchell D-Wash) has urged
Secretary of State Acheson to send
a representative of his fisheries
and wildlife division to aid in the
formulation of a Japanese peace
treaty
Mitchell made public a letter to
Acheson in which he said he had
learned that John Foster Dulles,
soon to depart for Japan for pre-
liminary drafting of the treaty, had
not included a fisheries expert on
his official staff.
Consequently, it would appear,
Mitchell wrote, that Mr.. Dulles
does not contemplate including Pa
cific fishery provisions in the pro-
posed treaty"
japanese fishing activities off
Bristol Bay in Alaska waters and
other Pacific coast areas prior to
World War II, Mitchell said,
threatened our conservation pro-
gram and thus impinged on our
national security"
Both should be protected in the
proposed japanese treaty." he said
Mitchell said he recognized that
the fish industry is an important
one in the Japanese economy, but
added: Alaska is even more de-
pendent on the continuation and
enlargement of Pacific fish runs"

they are made. That perhaps is
why even the files on northern
militry blunders in the civil war
still are secret.
That is also why our intelligence
error in the battle of the bulge.
which cost the lives of thousands
of young men, still remains uninves-
tigated; with the general then in
charge of U. S. intelligence being
promoted to be No. 2 man in the
central intelligence agency.
And that is also why the Naval
commanders responsible for shooting
down and killing 400 US. and Brit
ish paratroopers in the invasion of
Sicily never were investigated
American newspapermen. includ-
ing this columnist, have written
about these tragic errors But no
official investigation ever was made
public.
Likewise suppressed may be the
tragic Korean error which cost us
the greatest proportionate casualties
in history. Certainly they will not
be published if Senator Mccarthy

Aluminium Plant in Canada,
projed al 5kagway, Is Now
Taken Up by Rep. To||efson
GAP Special Washington Service)

WASHINGTON, Jan, Is - R =
Rep. Tollefson (R-Wash) posed a
series of questions today for Charles
E. Wilson, Defense Mobilization Di-
rector, concerning "a rumored pro-
posal to expend United States funds
for the construction Of an alumni
mum plant in Canada"
(The proposed aluminium develop
ment in the Kitimat area of the
northern British Columbia wilder
ness has come under fire in Alaska
Published reports in Alaska have
said the Canadian project will
knock out, for the present at least,
the planning for possible project
at Skagway.
(The Anchorage. Alaska, Times
said editorially last week that the
plan to use United States funds for
the Canadian project has all the
badges of double-cross." 1t said
the setback to the Skagway pro-
posal came after some four years OF
preliminary study of its possibility
In a letter which Tollefson made
public he asked the director these
question:
/. Does the project entail con-
struction of a power dam and, II SO,
would not the same expenditure I'LL
the same requirements If made In
the United States:
2. Would such an aluminium plant
compete with us. industry after
the present emergency is over?
8. If construction of power dam
is involved what plans, If any, are
under consideration for the protec-
ton Of fishery resources9
Regarding the latter question
Tollefson said his particular con-
Germ was whether the dam would
be built on the Fraser river IN
British Columbia. The Washington
Congressman said several millions
of dollars" have been spent by TINS
country and Canada in rehabilitat-
ing the Fraser's sockeye. salmon
fishery, and added:
Most certainly much OF their
work could sconceivably be Ior
naught if power dams are con-
structed on the Fraser river with
out fish ladders and other protec-
tive devices"
The aluminium development, de-
scribed as a $500, 100000 overall
project, is slated for the kitimat
wilderness areas of northern BRUSH
Columbia. It is about 400 miles
north of Vancouver.
BIC. Lands Minister E. t. kenney
announced Jan. the signing OF an
agreement giving the Aluminium
Company of Canada water rights.
The Canadian press reported al
the time that a great power pro-
iect would be built on the Kemano
river a coastal stream about OF
miles from Kitimat. However, the
report said, a dam also would DC
built on a headwaters tributary Of
the Fraser river. It is the Nechako
which flows inland into the Fraser
river. However, according to the
Canadian press report. first ster
would be to build dam in the
Nechako's grand canyon. Its pur-
pose would be to back up the waters
in the Tahtsa- Kemano watersheds
thereby providing more water FOL
the Seward flowing Kemano, which
would provide the actual hydroelec-
trio power.
