 Dedicating Chapel
By MILTON MARMOR

LONDON, LR = Vice President Nixon and 12 other Americans stood with Queen Elizabeth II in crowded St. Paul's Cathedral to- day as Britain dedicated a memor- ial chapel to American war dead.
 Nixon flew to London Tuesday to represent President Eisenhower at the ceremony. The 12 other Americans who had places of hon or were next-of-kin of some of the 28,000 U. S. servicemen the chapel commemorates, men who died during World War-II in Bri- tain or in operations from British bases.
 The Archbishop of Canterbury, the Most Rev. Godfrey Francis Fisher, dedicated the chapel to mark ''the common sacrifice made by British and American peoples during the Second World War"
 Nixon, in formal morning dress, was accompanied by his wife.
 Nixon shook hands with the rel atives of the American war dead and the Queen spoke to them, then walked to her place beside Nixon.
 After the dedication and conse- cration, the Queen stepped for ward and unveiled marble ped estal on which the memorial roll of honor rests.
 A lone American bugler in the gallery high above sounded the mournful Taps of the U. s. serv- ices. A British trumpeter silhou- cited in window answered with reveille. Then from the choir and congregation packing the Cathe- dral came the stirring Battle Hymn of the Republic"
 The two-foot-high memorial book rests in gilt and glass case atop the marble pedestal. Its 474 vellum pages are bound in gold blocked crimson leather. Each morning. one will be turned to dis play different group of hand lettered names.

hood - but his contribution to Alaska's move to state status was second to none.
 Alaska has been Bartlett's life, and one of his deepest regrets is that he was not born in the Terri tory.
 His parents were Alaska pion- eers, and it would have been in the Fairbanks area that Bartlett would have been born - had his mother not travelled to Seattle at the time. He was christened Ed ward Lewis, but a boyhood nick name of Bob has stuck with him.
 He was raised at Fairbanks, at tended school there and worked later as a reporter for the Fair banks Daily News-Miner.
 His career in politics began in 1883, when he started a two-year assignment as Secretary to for mer Delegate Anthony Dimond.
 Bartlett tried his hand at gold mining from 1885 until 1889, but only began to strike it rich when he accepted appointment as Sec retary of Alaska and began his move toward Congress.

J. C. Gaffneys Celebrate 57th Anniversary

SEATTLE, R - MT. and Mrs. James c. Gaffney, who were mar ried in Nome 57 years ago today, will observe their anniversary quietly at their home, 2203 Cali fornia Ave.
 They had been invited to spend the winter at Palm Springs at the home of another old-time Alaskan, w. D. (BilD Heron, but had to decline because of Mrs. Gaffney's illness.
 Gaffney, 83, was born in Iowa and his wife, 79, in Illinois, and they first met in Minot, N. D. Her father, George H. McPherren, went to Dawson over the Chilkoot Pass in 1898, rejoining his family in Seattle later.
 Gaffney came to Seattle in 1900 and went to Nome with McPher- ren, who established a general store there.
 Gaffney and his bride lived in Nome until 1908, when they came back to Seattle.
 That year, he purchased the Knox Hat Store and remained in that business until 1943. Since then, he was in the brokerage, hotel and various other businesses until 1885, when he retired. He is a charter member of the Arctic Club.
 My only grievance this year" |" he said, "other than my wife's illness, is that my age won't per init my returning to Alaska and help develop that wonderful state.
 The Gaffneys have no children.

Charles Kettering.
 Noted Inventor, Dies At 82

DAYTON, Ohio, R - Charles F. Kettering is dead. But when an auto starter whined and turned over the motor, that was Boss Kett" giving a helping hand.
 The 82-year-old inventor, who died in his home yesterday of strike, amassed fortune through his genius in the automotive and other fields.
 He was most widely acclaimed for his. perfection of the self-start- CT in automobiles. The 140 patents he held,- on his own inventions and improvements on the inven- tions of others, helped revolution ize dozen industries.
 When electric cash registers ring up sales throughout the world today, they'll be ringing in tribute to Kettering. He invented them.
 He had a hand in developing anti-knock gasoline.
 The incubators that give many tiny infant a push down the road of life; the refrigeration unit that keeps your food from spelling; the pilotless airplane, aerial torpedo, diesel locomotives, accounting machines - Kettering helped develop all of these.
 Kettering's only son, Eugene, of Hinsdale, nl., was with him when he died. The inventors wife died in 1946.

Smog Is Major U. s. Problem, Says Congressman

LOS ANGELES, R - A smog of words filled the air today after the current air-pollution siege was blamed in part on sulphuric acid mist.
 The county smog control chief said Tuesday the attack consists in part of an acid mist of the type blamed for smog deaths in Denora, Pa, and London, England.
 He said it has him worried all though he doesn't think the siege poses an immediate threat to health.
 The eye-stinging smog attack is in it's fourth day and apparently tapering off. Weather forecasters said a sea breeze might carry it away late this afternoon Eff we're lucky"
 Meanwhile, a visiting congress- man called for a nationwide drive on smog.
 Rep. Ray J. Madden O-Ind was here to get California con- gressmen's help in a nationwide drive for federal action.
 He told the mayor and other officials:
 "There will never be solution of the smog problem at the local level. It must come from the fed eral level. Smog is now nation wide problem.
 'Los Angeles smog is widely publicized, but the smog in Chi cago is often just as bad but you never hear about it. In Buffalo, I've seen it so bad you had to light a match to see. It is a problem in Detroit, Pittsburgh, St. Louis, San Francisco - and just about every other major city.

FAIRBANKS, tR - A 19th- Century 46-star American flag preserved for many years by George C. Kosmos of Seattle will soon be permanently displayed at the University of Alaska here.
 The twenty by fourteen-foot banner was made in Skagway in 1897 although it's history is some what sketchy. It is known that one of its five women makers was the daughter of gold rush pioneer.
 She passed it on to William O.. Peterson, Alaska Yukon pioneer, who on his death gave it to Kos mos some ten years ago. Recently it had been displayed in the Se- attle Sourdough Club of which Pe- terson was the founder.

Bob Bartlett Hailed At Long Last, As A Voting Member Of U. s. Congress

JUNEAU, R IL Alaska's Bob Bartlett has served in Congress since 1945, and hasn't cast a vote.
 He'll change all that when the 86th Congres convenes in Jan- uary.
 The 54-year-old former gold miner went to Congress in 1914 as Alaska Delegate - a member of the House without voting rights.
 Yesterday, in the first State election in Alaska, Bartlett was better than 6-1 choice for one of the two Senate seats opening to the 49th State.
 Bartlett served as Secretary of Alaska from 1889, until his cleo tion as Delegate in 1914, during Gruening's first term as Governor.
 Every two years since then Bartlett's steady plugging for Alaska, his bi-party popularity and generally recognized ability to win friends and influence Con- gresSmen has won him a return trip to Washington.
 Throughout his career in public life, one of Bartlett's main dreams has been the achievement of Statehood for Alaska.
 Bartlett shared with many other Alaskans part of the glory for vic tory in the long fight for State

Dulles Says West Agrees On Dealing With Russians
By JOHN M. HIGHTOWER WASHINGTON. R - Secreta

WASHINGTON. lR - Secretary of State Dulles said today the Western allies have reached basic agreement on how to deal with Soviet pressures over Berlin.
 Dulles said he would not rule out the use of force in defense of Western rights to the city, bue he thought the question was aca- denic because the Communists have not threatened to cut the land, water or air routes.
 Dulles said there are at least two possible explanations why the Soviet Union has not yet made its proposals to end occupation rights in Berlin although Premier Khrushchev forecast action 16 days ago.
 One is that Khrushchev found himself out on a legal limb through failure to consult his law yers and therefore has had to re- view his policy.
 Another possible reason is that Soviet repudiation of the whole Potsdam agreement of 1945 might destroy the basis of Poland's rights in former German-held territory.
 Dulles said the Polish govern ment may have become alarmed over this.
 Dulles refused to spell out pre- cisely what steps the Western powers might take in dealing with any challenge by the Com munists over Berlin. At times his carefully phrased answers skirted around areas in which U in line with persistent reports - there may be disagreement among the allied powers which include West Germany.

Paul on summer fashions. The Arch
bishop decried the present tendency
toward careless attire in church by
saying 1T should be obvious that a

knot is not a hat, bermuda shorts are
not pants; sandals showing painted toe
