solution"
Where Does U. S. Stand?
This is a kind of talk that
hasn't been heard in the West
for some time. Sir John has a
for being outspoken.
But there is no reason to believe
that what he said doesn't reflect
the thinking in the British
Foreign Office. If the principle
of self-determination is actually
to be subordinated to the "stra-
tegic purposes" of the West, and
if these purposes are to be
maintained where necessary by
military power, Western diplo-
macy in the Middle East seems
likely to take on a decidedly
new complexion.
Where does the United States
stand in all this? The answer
is hardly clear One day, in
Paris, Ambassador Dillon comes
out in strong support of Frances
effort in North Africa. The next,
"a State Department spokesman
emphasizes that no change of
policy has taken place. From
Athens comes an expression of
American sympathy for the
Greek Nationalist on Cyprus,
followed quickly by a statement
from President Eisenhower along
the traditional, fence-straddling
lines.
The time is approaching. how
ever, when the United States
must climb down on one side
or the other. If there are to
be such things as Western Stra-
tegic interests in the Middle East
and a Western policy to protect
them, it is not reasonable to
suppose that an attitude of aloof
benevolence can be maintained
indefinitely.
In fact, the revision of policy
that is taking place here al
ready involves and duplicates
the United States more than the
State Department would like to
admit. And this involvement, if
anything, seems likely to in
crease as time goes on.

about 100000 and the bus mile
age tax which the company
does not now pay.
2. That the rate base in effect
at the time Congress Cancelled

cepted. Mr.. Harris said this
amounts to about $2l million,
less depreciation. He said that,
if this recommendation is ac-
copied, it would resolve the
sharp difference between the
parties last year amounting to
about $2.4 million"

might soon lose it's last major
military base in the Middle East
1t could have been the result
of loud cry for support from
France, rallying desperately for
a major military effort to restore
the voice of it's authority in
Algeria. It could have been the
growing threat of Russia's new
economic diplomacy in North
Africa, the abrupt dismissal of
Gen. Club as head of Jordan's
Arab Legion, or the increasingly
anti-Western tone Of Egyptian
leadership throughout the Arab
World.
At any rate, the combination
of these facts seem to have con-
WINGED Western leaders that
their retreat threatened to be-
come a rout. And that, if any
vital strategic interests were to
be salvaged in the long run, some
firm lines would have to be
drawn and certain measures OF
a hard, unpopular and possibly
dangerous kind. taken immedi-
ately.
Ii is too early to say how far
these measures will go. It is
probably wrong to suppose that
the policy of liberal diplomacy
has been abandoned. But it is
quite clear that for the first time
in many years, the West is falling
back on military power to exert
its influence in North Africa and
the Middle East.
Showdown in Algeria
With the transfer of two Euro
pean divisions, the mobilization
of reservists and the granting of
virtually dictatorial powers to the
local governor, France is pre-
pairing for military showdown
in Algeria, as a preliminary to
any possible solution to the prob
lem there. 1t has been a hard
decision for a socialist govern
ment, pledged to a program of
Cancellation and reform in
Frances overseas territories. But
the necessity for it is so clear
that Premier Guy Mollet is
backed up by virtually every
French party with the exception
of the Communists.
Britain, after months of fruit
less negotiations, has now clearly
decided to stay in Cyprus by
force. In London, the Foreign
Office has taken the wraps of
a plan for military action in the
Middle East in case of renewed
fighting between the Arab states
and Israel in which Cyprus serves
as the main staging base. In
public statements as well as
private conversations, an entirely
new and surprisingly tough tone
Is beginning to make itself heard.
It was Britain's Governor of
Cyprus, Sir John Harding, who
put it most clearly:
Britain, he said, needs
Cyprus for strategic purposes, not
solely for herself, but in the in
terests of the free worlds security
as a whole. One day, perhaps
the need will not be overriding

Communication System Grows With Territory
Continued from page I.)


 In 1880 high power radio-tele- graph stations were established in Anchorage. Ketchikan, and Seattle. At first these operations were slow, since receivers had to copy messages down directly from senders. The system was speeded to over 200 words per minute later. when per- forated feeder tape and keying ma chimes came on the scene. There were then three circuits for a load of 55.000 messages per month.
 By l945, 59 circuits were oper- ated, all with modern semi-auto- matic equipment Traffic load has been increased from the limited messages of yesterday to 473,000 per month.
 Due to the size of Alaska and the long distances between towns and cities. communications has played vital part in the growth of the Territory. And upon the Alaska Communications System and it's re- lated agencies will rest a large por- ton of the responsibility for Alas ka's future expansion and develop ment.
