Chinese Reds Want
Seats In U. N. Of
Chinese Nationals
LAKE SUCCESS, (/P)—Th new
Chinese communist regime in
China has challenged the right of
Chinese nationalist delegates to
keep their seats in the United Na
tions.
The announcement yesterday
apparently was the first step by
Mao Tze-Tung’s Red “People’s
Government” aimed at taking
over the big power membership in
the U. N. held by the retreating
Chinese Nationalists.
A communist broadcast from j
Peiping announced that the Mao
Tze-Tung government was send- !
ing a message to U. N. assembly
President Carlos P. Romulo de
claring that nationalist delegates '
have “no right to speak for the
Chinese people in the United Na
tions organization.”
While no formal demond was
made for outsing China’s present
delegation headed by Dr. T. F.
Tsiang, the Peiping broadcast said
the central people’s government
repudiates the legal status of the
nationalist delegation.
Informed of the report, Tsiang
said: “I will pay no attention to
this"
EVIDENCE SLIPS
WASHINGTON, (fl*) — Detec
tives ir. a cruiser car saw a known
numbers operator on the sidewalk
with a paper bag in his hand.
They told him to “come over here”
and asked him what he had in the
bag.
“You know what I got,” the
man replied. “I got numbers slips.”
The officers arrested him—but
Judge Thomas D. Quinn set hfm
free. He hold that the man was
under arrest the moment the offi
cers called him over—and that at
that time they did not have evi
dence of a misdemeanor.
In 1900 only 25 per cent of the
U. S. cotton textile production
was carried on in cotton grow
ing states, but more than 75 per
cent is located in such states to
day.

Bartlett Says
Alaskan Defenses
Must Be Improved
(Continued from Page One)
overall defense situation in the
Territory still is bad the com
mandants of the three armed serv
ices are “really making unifica
tion work.”
He praised Lt. Gen. Nathan F.
Twining, an air officer and com
mander of the Alaska department;
Maj. Gen. Stanley F. Scott of the
army and Read Admiral Frank
Wagner, commandant of the 17th
nav$l District.
They are doing an excellent
job with the facilities with which
they have to work,” Bartlett said.
Bartlett’s comments came a day
after publication of an interview
in which Gov. Ernest Gruening of
Alaska said the Territory’s de
fenses are so weak it “could be
taken tomorrow by a minor-scale
airborne invasion”—jossibly by a
single parachute division.
Gruening told the U. S. News
and World Report that the Terri
tory “is wholly vulnerable because
we have no defenses.”
He estimated that Russia has
close to 5,000,000 people in a vast
area opposite Alaska, running
about 500 miles west of Bering
Strait. Alaska, he said, has up
wards of 100,000 persons.
And, Gruening commented, in
one place Soviet Siberia and Alas
I ka are only 2Vfe miles apart —at
the Dlomedes, while from several
points in Alaska you can look
across Bering Strait and see Rus
sia with the naked eye.
Mrs. D. C. Jamison, wife of the
commanding officer of Marks Air
Force Base, and their three small
sons arrived this morning from
California to make their home at
the base.
