Chinese Drive 7th Div.
 Off Old Baldy Mountain

SEOUL, R - Chinese R e q S slashed out with new attacks in western Korea late Thursday, while Communists holding she'll rubbed Old Baldy, 25 miles away, took terrible punishment from US. guns and war planes.
 One attack by about 75O Reds was stopped on Bunker Hill, five miles east of the truce talk village of Panmunjom, early reports said.
 The attack on the Bunker Hill area could be a Red diversion in- tended to relieve the deadly pres sure on Old Baldy, almost ob scured by the dust and smoke raised by Allied artillery and mortar fire and bomb bursts since American troops abandoned it to victorious Chinese.
 All day long the western front hill rocked under intense fire as the Americans tried to root out the stubborn Reds who handed JUN. troops their worst beating since they were thrown off the Kumhwa Ridges five months ago.
 The US. Seventh Division pull ed out in Thursdays early dark ness, dynamiting their trenches and bunkers.
 The strategic fortress guarding the Imjin Valley route to Seoul was left to the Reds and death.

Skinner went on to say that while the examiners finding was s'based on his determination that there were sufficient private charters available at reasonable rates, neither of these positions holds up under close scrutiny.
 "First, it is evident that there is a lack of available private yes sels in view of the fact that char ter rates have advanced most ap- preciably in recent weeks, due to scarcity of vessels.
 Furthermore, it is clear that there are no private vessels avail able that can be chartered at rates that can be sustained by present tariffs"
 The final decision on the char ters will be made by the Mari time Board.

Legislature Adjourns After All-Night Session Provides Record g and Half Million Dollar General Appropriation
By JIM HUTCHINSON

JUNEAU, R-Senate adjourn ment at am. today ended the 21st session of the Alaska Legis- lature after an all-night session.
 The House adjourned a half hour earlier, but the Senate de layed the final gavel until arrival of outgoing Governor Gruening to receive notification personally.
 House approval of Senate re- visions in a 231s million dollar general appropriation bill and ag- reement on membership of two interim Investigating committees came shortly before adjournment.
 Legislators named to a com mittee to investigate all levels of territorial government and boards were Senators Mike Stepovich, Howard Lyng and James Nolan, and Representatives Herald Strin- ger, William Boardman and Alden Wilbur.
 Members named to the legisla- tive council to draw recommenda- tions for the next session on what government revisions and im- provements are needed were Sen- ators Paul Robison, Doris Barnes and Charles Jones, and Represen- tatives Fred Eastbaugh, Richard Greuel and Charles Fagerstrom.
 Appointments Not Confirmed
 A joint session of the houses refused to confirm any of the ap- pointments submitted by Cover nor Gruening for various boards and commissions. This permits new Republican governor Frank Heintzleman to make interim ap- pointments after he takes office.
 The appropriations bill as amended in the Senate indicated the Territory must dip into the treasury surplus of this biennium to pay the next bienniurn's bills.
 Treasurer Henry Roden esti- mated there would be about $4,5O0,O0O surplus into which to dip.
 The Senate voted $1,50O,0O0 for city school construction but the House failed to act on the bill, so the only provision for new school

Eisenhower Defends Ammunition Situation In Korea and Nomination
 Of BOhlen As Russian Ambassador

} WASHINGTON, R - PreSlQent Eisenhower said Thursday the am- munition situation in Korea now is perfectly sound as compared with the type of operations going on there.
 The President made this state ment at news conference during which he also defended his nom- ination of Charles E. Chip Boh- len to be ambassador to Russia. He said Bohlen, who has come under fire from group of Re- publican senators, is the best qualified man and the nomination sticks.
 Eisenhower's remarks about the ammunition situation in Ko- req were touched off by questions about the differences between the Pentagon and General James A. Van Fleet.
 Van Fleet, retiring commander of the Eighth Army in Korea, has declared there were serious, sometimes critical, shortages of ammunition during his P months in Korea.
 Pentagon Denies Shortage Exists
 Top military leaders in the Pentagon denied that but a Sen ate committee said it agreed with Van Fleet.
 Eisenhower said he had speci- fically checked on the loss of "Old Baldy" mountain by the Allies and was told, that ammuni- ton was not a factor.
 On other matters, Eisenhower:
 Announced that he will recom- mend to Congress, within a few days, creation of presidential commission to study federal-state relations in the fields of taxation, grants in aid and social security.
 Declared that if government employees are not willing to be entirely loyal to their superiors, they should resign.
 No Pay For Leave Not Taken
 Declared he does not believe any high government official should accept pay for leave earn ed but not actually taken. He was commenting on recent accept ance by Truman administration officials m including eight cabinet members-of a total of more than $700,000 in accumulated leave. The money was paid to more than 215 government officials and en- ployes between Nov. l, 1852 and Feb. IS, 1853.
 Remarked that he and Secre- tary of Defense Wilson are try ing in every possible way to get defense spending within manage able proportions. Eisenhower added that deficit spending has a desperate effect on the economy and that if military expenditures can be cut without hurting the combat situations in the world, they will be cut.

Wrong Approach

Kodiak has been subjected to of houseto- house book and magazine saesmen the past few months Some of these have recently hit low 'jigh pressure salesmanshp."
 We know that saesmen supposed to be aggressive for their gain, and to make many sales for their panes possible However there certain courteous and dgned standards to be followed especially by those who represent well known and reputable firms.
 Insults customers by indicating they negecting their children they refuse buy certain books; discount in the of persistence and unehica approach that indicates competitive product is just worthless have all been met with here recently.
 Surely the companies which these saesmen represent do condone such methods And just surely the people of Kodiak will accept these people, as transient salesmen if they do not change their approach courteous and gracious one.

letter to the Edisor

absence Ot too many fatnerS and mothers. Perhaps many of you are laboring under the impression that absence makes the heart grow fonder. Noth- ing could be further from truth.
 Your absence is, in fact, another way of being short changed on the progress of your child. Or is it that your Johnny or Mary or what ever the name may be is an unusual child. a genius, a future leader and doesn't need the interest taken in him that eventually brings out his better qualities?
 have four children, three of them are in school, none of them heinz in the child pro- tege class. 1 swell with pride when l am told they are well behaved when out in company but I'm not kidding myself that these pillars of etiquette some how through the myst- cry that is a child, become little monsters armed with spitballs and chewing gum when confronted with a book of knowledge and a. teacher.
 Little Jerkimer comes home from the halls of learning and waits politely with a doleful look for Pop or Nom to pat him on the head proudly for
 having the ultimate in cour- ageousness to withstand a , rigid schedule of the three R's when they know for a fact
 that Jr. is really much more advanced than any other stu dent in his class.
 I've got news for you. Your little ball of fire might be the essence of learning at home but in the class room he might just might be known as the kid who knows the most profanity. carries the most rubber bands. has the biggest supply of spitball armament and in general keeps the class room in an uproar.
 So you haven't the time or the inclination to attend PTA, yet I'll wager you're the first one on the school doorstep with fire in your eye because Jr. has received a verbal spanking. Or maybe you can blame it on another child whom you feel isn't the pro- per company. Blame no one but yourself.
 Your child has to learn to get along in society and dis cern right from wrong com pany with the help of parents and teachers as tools of gui- dance. Whether your family
 be large or small you can't hold a candle to the teachers
 who are one, against a room full of forty or so. The only
 individual attention your child
 can get is through the parents attendance of the PTA meet ! ling and converse with the teachers as to yoIr child's
 progress and attitude. Let's set an attendance record and
