Russian, American
Delegates In
.Heated Battle
(By John A. Parris. Jr.)
LAKE SUCCESS, (/P) — Russia
and the United States appeared
Saturday to be headed for a show
down battle in the United Nations
security council over a Slav revolt
against maintaining an interna
tional watch on the troubled Bal
kan frontier areas.
Representatives of the two pow
ers tangled Friday over Yugosla
via’s right to deliver a “tirade”
against the Greek government in
the council.
U. S. deputy delegate Herschel
V. Johnson and Soviet deputy
foreign minister Andrei A. Grom
yko traded sharp words after the
American interrupted a speech by
Sara N. Kosanovic, Yugoslav rep
resentative, who had been invited
to the council table to give his
country’s views on a Balkan in
quiry group.
As the Yugoslav representative
reiterated charges that the pres
ent Greek government was re
sponsible for all border incidents
along the frontiers with Albania,
Yugoslavia and Bulgaria, John
son interrupted:
“Do we, have to put up with
this tirade against the Greek gov
ernment? I’ve never heard such
an astonishing statement made in
the security council.”
Kosanovic retorted:
“Yugoslavia has a right to de
fend herself.”
And then Gromyko declared.
“I ask the United States dele
gate not to interrupt and let the
Yugoslav' delegate speak.
“I do not recognize the right of
the Soviet delegate to tell me

NEW YORK, </P> — New York
was in theoretical “ruins” Satur
day after a mock raid by 101
i army B-29 superfortresses wit
nessed by millions of persons on
the eastern seaboard, but Gen.
George C. Kenney, commander of
the army air forces strategic com
mand, says that “even though this
force looked formidable . . . , it
wouldn’t last long in a shooting
war.”
“This force you saw today is
mobile and all right and it is cap
able of dealing a real blow, but
for sustained operations it would
not last long,” Kenney said in a
network radio broadcast Friday
night from New York.
About 130 B-29’s—representing
every plane of the type available
in the United States for operation-1
al work at present—were to have
been in the armada Friday, but a
score and a half were diverted be
cause of bad weather.

Gromyko shouted: “I suggest
the United States delegate is not
the arbiter.”
Council chairman Alfonso Lo
1 pez of Colombia finally managed
to break up the heated exchange
and instructed Kosanovic to con
tinue his statement “although
some of it may not be relevant to
the question.”
The council had been called
into session to debate a Soviet
resolution demanding sharp cur
tailment of powers for an interim
U. N. commission investigating
warfare along northern Greek
frontiers.

Communication
Among prospectors, miners, and
others, there has existed for some
'time, a considerable degree of
misunderstanding with regard to
the identity and functions of the
Territorial Department of Mines’
offices at College, Alaska. In an
attempt to clarify this situation re
cent conferences between repre
sentatives of the University of
Alaska and the Territorial De
partment of Mines were held. The
following explanation and infor
mation are the direct result of
these discussions, and have been
jointly prepared and endorsed by
both agencies. The public, and
particularly the mining industry,
are requested to make proper dis
tinction when writing regarding
mining matters or sending ores
and minerals for assay or identi
fication.
Territorial Department of Mines
(Assay Office)
The Territorial Department of
Mines, under the supervision of
B. D. Stewart, Commissioner of
Mines, Juneau, operates four pub
lic assay offices, of which one is
located at College, Alaska. It is
the function and purpose of this
office to provide free assaying,
mineral identification, and advis
ory services to residents of Alas
ka, and to aid and assist prospect
ors, miners, and prospective op
erators, to the fullest extent of its
facilities. Work is received and
reported on a strictly confidential
basis, no information being given
to anyone outside of the depart
ment who has not been authorized
to receive such information.
No such services are provided
or authorized by the University
of Alaska. Correspondence or
samples should be addressed to:
Territorial Department of Mines,
Assay Office,
College, Alaska.
(Other department assay offices
are located at Ketchikan, Anchor
age, and Nome. The latter office
is being operated only intermit
tently. When it is closed samples
should be forwarded to the assay
office at College, Alaska).
Territorial Department of Mine*
(Office of Associate Engineer)
In addition to the services ren
dered by the Assay offices, the
Territorial Department of Mines
maintains a staff of Associate1
Mining Engineers whose duties I
are to assist the Commissioner of
Mines in the performance of his
function.
In the language of the Organic;
Act of the Department of Mines
the duties to be performed are:
“To conduct a continuing survey
of the mineral resources and min
ing operations of the Territory
and to disseminate information
with regard thereto; to assist pros
pectors and miners; to safeguard
the lives and health of miners; to
protect investors in the industry;
and otherwise foster and promote
the best interest of the mining,
mineral and related industries.”
During the performance of
these duties prospects and mining
properties are examined and sam
pled when desired by the owner.
Reports and sketches based on
these examinations are prepared,
copies of which are furnished the
owners of the properties for dis
tribution by them as desired. In
formation thus obtained concern
ing privately held mining proper
ties is held confidential by the De
partment of Mines unless author
ization to release it is given by the
owner. There is no charge for
furnishing these field examina
tions, reports and sketches, which
constitute a free service to pros
no #
pectors, and small operators un
able to hire private mining en
gineers.
Territorial law provides that:
“In conducting the inquiries and
investigations authorized by law
neither the Commissioner of
Mines nor any member of the De
partment shall have any personal
or private interest in any mine o:
^the products of any mine under
investigation.”
The University of Alaska nei
ther authorizes nor provides serv
ices such as are above described.
Correspondence with reference to
them should be addressed to:
Territorial Department of Mines,
Associate Engineer,
College, Alaska.
(Other field offices are located
at Juneau and Anchorage'.
University of Alaska
Not since 1937 has the Univers
ity of Alaska offered assaying or
engineering services to the mining
industry of Alaska, or to the gen
eral public. Prior to that date the
University did participate in sev
eral cooperative plans that pro
vided those services, but since
1937 all such duties and efforts
have been taken over by the Ter
ritorial Department of Mines.
University participation on such
matters is now limited to but two
categories:
1. Receipt of donations of ores
and minerals for museum display
and regular student instruction in
the classroom.
2. Conducting mining short
courses at the University, and
mining extension classes through
out the Territory.
The Territorial Department of
Mines conducts no classes in pros
pecting or mining. Correspond
ence should be addressed to:
University of Alaska,
i School of Mines,
College, Alaska.
• Note*:
Professors and instructors of
the University may, during the
summer vacation period, be em
ployed in various capacities, in
cluding the professional practice
of mining engineering. While so
engaged they are not employed
by the University; during the aca
demic school year no continuation
of private practice is sanctioned
by the University of Alaska.
Correspondence involving the
personal or private practice of any
individual employee of the Uni
versity must be addressed to that
person as an individual and with
out reference to the University.
