“Western Europe”
Must Speed A
Unified Defense”
_ •
STRASBOURG, France, UP) —
Belgian Socialist leader Paul
Henri Spaak warned western Eu-(
rope today to speed a unified de- j
fense or risk destruction of its;
civilization. J
The Brussels and North Atlan-;
tic pacts are “just so much ink
and paper,” the president of the
European Consultative Assembly
told a news conference.
The Belgian leader unqualified
ly supported Winston Churchill’s
proposal that Western European
governments combine their forces
under a single command as a bul-1
wark against Russian aggression.
A British Conservative party I
spokesman said Saturday that,
Churchill will present his pro
posal—already endorsed by the
Assembly—to the British House of
Commons when it meets in spe- j
cial session Sept. 12.
Spaak noted that the experience'
of two World Wars had shown the
Allies the advantages of a unified,
command. He added that in these
conflicts such unity was adopted
only after “military miracles”—
the Battle of the Marne and the
Battle of London—enabled the
Allies to carry on. He asked: i
“Can our civilization use its ex
istence on a third performance of
a miracle?” ?
In his call for an overall West
ern European defense, Chuchill
told the Assembly that he was not
a candidate for the defense minis
ter’s job.

Chapman Sets Up
New Office Of j
Territories
((/P) Special Washington Service)
WASHINGTON, (£>)—Secretary
of the Interior Chapman set up a;
new Office of Territories in the
Interior Department today.
At the same time he abolished
I
the old Division of Territories and
Island Possessions, and transfer-;
red division officials, as one
group, to the new office.
Chapman said the action is in
line with recommendations under
i
President Truman’s reorganiza-,
tion plan No. 3.
It places the Territories organ
ization on a par with the depart
ment’s operating bureaus, thus
giving it more prestige and inde
pendence and a bit more respon
sibility than before.
This is largely accomplished by
a redefinition of duties.
The office concerns itself with
Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Vir
gin Islands, Guam and other de
pendent areas which may come
under the jurisdiction of the In
terior Department.
It also supervises operations of
the Alaska Railroad, the Alaska
Road Commission and the federal
public works program in Alaska
and the Virgin Islands and helps
Secretary Chapman in supervis
ing the Virgin Islands Corp., the
Puerto Rican Reconstruction Ad
ministration and the Alaska Rural
Rehabilitation Corp.
Flemish Knot Will
Sail North Aug. 18
Mr. Jack Dillon, Nome agent for
Alaska Steamship Company has
received a wire from Seattle stat
ing that the vessel which is sched
uled to sail from there August 18
will be the M/S Flemish Knot.
Alaska Steamship Company will
receive freight for her at their
Seattle terminal until August 16.
All orders should be in the hands
of suppliers in ample time for
them to assemble the orders and
make delivery to the dock.
Upon arrival of the Flemish
Knot in Nome northbound, only
perishable goods and most urgent
ly needed goods will be discharg
ed. The balance of her cargo will
be discharged upon her return to
Nome after delivering goods to
Kotzebue Sound points. This is be
ing done due to the fact this is
the only ship of the year to call in
that area, and as it is late in the
season it is imperative the call be
made as soon as is possible in or
der to relieve shortages which ex
ist and to try to get goods into in
terior points before the freeze-up.
Mr. and Mrs. Lud Urick, teach
ers of the Nome Public School
left yesterday for Fairbanks where
Mr. Urick will be oq the athletic
staff of the University of Alaska,
and Mrs. Urick will be teaching in
the grade schools. v
The first passenger elevator was
installed in New York in 1857.
