GOPs At Denis.
Convention
• Wrangell Sentinel)
First Division Democrats wound
up their convention in Ketchikan
recently in the customary blaze
of glory and compromise, but with
the unusual procedure of naming
two Republicans to fill offices in
their ranks.
Mrs. Ruth Charteris of Sitka, it
developed after the Demos nad
folded their tent and gone home,
had registered in the last two pri
maries as a Republican and Paul
Bell, of Kake, who had failed to
vote in the last primary, was re
ported also to be a Republican.
Both were named by Demos as
delegates' to the Territorial con
vention, January 22, in Ketchikan
and were also named to the Divi
sional committee.
A contest was certain to be
made against seating them either
at the Kechikan convention, or
permitting them to sit on the Di
visional committee.
Democratic rules provide that
those holding party office must
have voted Democratic in the lart
primary.

Russia Must Ship
Grain To Germany
DRESDEN, Soviet Occupied
Germany, (Delayed) OT*)—A diffi
cult food situation may force the
Soviet Union to ship grain into the
Russian occupied eastern zone of
Germany, which is being woven
into a so-called Molotov plan of
economy for eastern Europe.
“Soviet officials think they will
have to import grain from the
Soviet Union, but a final decision
has not yet been reached,” Maj.
Gen. Timoffei Dudarov, acting
military governor for Saxony, told
the first American correspondents
to tour the Russian zone since last
June.
This is the first time the Rus
sians have spoken of shipping food
into their zone. Their army lives
mainly on German food, particu
larly perishables, and the Ameri
can and British licensed press in
Berlin have accused the Soviet
Union of exporting trainloads of
German food eastward.

Yesterday, Maj. Gen. Frank R.
McCoy, American member, told
the Far Eastern commission the
$350,000,000 a year burden on
j American taxpayers to sustain
Japan’s civilian economy must be
i lifted.

That is about all he would say

yesterday to the Senate foreign
relations committee.
Asked specifically for his reac

In response to another question,
Mr. Truman said:
He read the recommendations of
Bernard M. Baruch with pleasure
and approves of those that are in
line with his own European and
domestic economic programs.
Mr. Hoover suggested to the
Senate group a “constructive
modification’’ of Mr. Truman’s
program and got pledges of care
