Bartlett Protests Cuts In Alaska Construction

WASHINGTON, R- Delegate Bartlett said Tuesday Budget Blu reau revision of the budget sub mitted by former President Tru- man has cut more than g million dollars from construction activi- ties of the Office of Territories.
 Describing the revision as cut of approximately 48 per cent in the Truman budget, Bartlett de- clared:
 T intend to seek restoration of these items. If these cuts. go thru, it means that the orderly inn provement of our transportation facilities and the building of our communities through the Public Works Program will suffer se- were setback.
 T cannot understand why AL aska should be called upon to take appropriation reductions of this magnitude. This is distinct step backward"
 Bartlett said the new recom- mendations reduce the request for the Alaska Public Works program from 15 to 10 million dollars, pare $3,800,000 from the Alaska Road Commission, and make no provi- sion at all for rehabilitation of the Alaska Railroad between Sew ard and Portage.

Russia Pledges To Cooperate Seeking Truce In Korea :
fBY THE ASSOCIATED PREssl

Soviet Russia gave it's blessing Wednesday to the Korean truce bid by Red China's Premier Chou En-Lai and pledged to cooperate fully in it's realization"
 Foreign Minister V. M. Molotov made the pledge in a statement that appeared to bolster chances for some real understanding on the prisoner of war issue that has been the stumbling block at Pan munjom.
 It was the latest move by Pre- mier Malenkov's young admins tration in a peace offensive still viewed cautiously by western capitals and the majority of the United Nations.
 The general assumption in Washington was that Chou's plan has had Russian support before if, in fact, it was not originated in the Kremlin. US. officials re- garded the Russian endorsement as making Chou's bid more con vincing, but noted that critical points of workable armistice plan must still be nailed down.
 The big point to be spelled out in detail is the principle of no forcible repatriation of war pri- soners.
 Gen. Mark Clark, the JUN. com mander, made it clear that the first concrete step toward truce must be the exchange of sick and wounded prisoners of war.
 But We're making all prepar- ations and will be ready to go,'' Clark told neWsmen in Munsan, Korea. we don't want to do any thing to hold up negotiations"
 Molotov's statement came on the heels of a Security Council agreement to offer the Secretary Generalship of the U. N. to a Swedish deputy foreign minister, Dag Hammarskjold. That broke a long deadlock between the Soviet bloc and the western powers over filling the job being vacated by Trygve Lie.
 Agreement on a successor for Lie was the first concord between the Soviets and the West on any major issues before the JUN. in many months.
