GOP Complacent
Toward Election
WASHINGTON, (/P) — Acting
Senate majority leader Wherry
took note of GOP “complacency”
toward the fal lelections, but said
%
the party could lick that to keep
control of the narrowly-held Sen
ate.
“The complacency of the Repub
lican party is its biggest problem,”
the Nebraskan told reporters. “Ev
erybody thinks it’s a cinch.
“But we’re gradually overcom
ing the feeling and going to work.
Governor Dewey is setting the
party on fire wherever he goes.”

note accusing the Soviet Union of
bad faith in the Berlin talks,
which had been going on since.
July 31. The note also charged
Russia had created “a threat to in
; ternaiional peace.” For this reason,
they said, they had decided to take
the problem to the Security Coun
I cil.
! In his speech, Bevin declared:
“If the black fury and incalcul
! able disaster of atomic war, should
fall upon us, all I can say is that
one power, by refusing its coopera
tion in the control and develop
ment of those great new forces for
the good of humanity will alone be
responsible for the evils which
may be visited upon mankind.”
If the United Nations is de
stroyed what would replace it?
Said Bevin: ‘‘If we cannot proceed
on a world basis as we had hoped,
we must proceed on a regional ba
sis.”
The western powers re-empha
sized their determination to re
main in Berlin. “This far and no
further” is now the watchword of
the west. Planes of the allied air
lift, now in it slOOth <}ay, droned
on over the Russian blockade, lug
ging ton after ton of supplies to
their zones of Berlin—an island
deep in Russia’s zone.
Bevin also reiterated his govern
ment’s support for the Bernadotte
Palestine plan to settle the claims
of Arabs and Jews and urged its
adoption in its entirety.
Press reports in Belgrade said
resistance to the Albanian govern
ment’s split with premier marshal
Tito of Yugoslavia has caused a
reign of terror in Albania.
Communist forces in Asia open- J
ed up an autumn offensive over
many thousands of miles of China,
following their victory at Tsinan.
Red forces threatened the Man
churian corridor, which the Chi
nese government describes as
“now vital to the whole world sit
uation.”
Communists isolated Ishein, 30 i
miles northwest of the important j
air lift base of Chinhsien, cutting
off at least one government divi
sion. The air lift supplies Mukden.
More communist uprisings were
reported in Java. A communist
broadcast said Indonesian repub
lican troops clashed with rebel
forces northwest of the commun
ist-held city of Madioen.

FATHER TOM CUNNINGHAM
SPEAKS AT SERVICE CLUB
Father Tom Cunningham, Cath
olice preist of Nome and the King
and Diomede Islands, spoke to
many interested people gathered
in the Service Club at the Marks
Air base on Sunday evening.
Father Tom told of the life and
I languages of the Eskimo race.
He explained many of the falla
cies in the white man’s interpre
tation of the native and that there
was no basis for comparison of the
intelligence of the native with that
of the white man except on the
idea of self preservation in ex
treme circumstances. He stated the
prowess of the native surpasses
I that of the white man in wresting
from nature the means of a liveli
hood.
Languages, Father Tom related,
are entirely different in the vari
ous tribes or groups rather than j
district, although it is almost im
possible for natives of one of the
Bering Sea islands to converge
with those of another. The lan- I
guage is so utterly different on
each of the islands.
Following the discourse a period
of questions and discussion fol
lowed, in which those present plied
questions on the native life, lan
guages and his art.
Jane Sniffin, service worker on
the Marks Air Base, announced
that the weekly talks would con
tinue and would be announced in
a program through the Nome Nug
get from time to time and all are
cordially invited to attend.

Oil Strike Negotia
tions Break Down
| _
SAN FRANCISCO, (/Pi—Nego
tiations in the three-week-old
strike of California CTO oil work
ers broke down here, but talks
seeing' a settlement continued at
El Segundo in southern California.
“No progress was being made.
The parties were deadlocked,” fed
eral conciliators said after the
northern California conferences
were recessed indefinitely. They
said no further negotiations here
were on schedule.
The deadlock ended a lengthy
series of talks between representa
tives of the Standard Oil Company
and the union. The same parties
are holding the southern California
negotiations.
Negotiations with the other five
struck companies previously had
been held up pending outcome of
the Standard-union discussions.
Meanwhile, AFL long haul tank
truck drivers reversed a decision
voted Wednesday to Sacramento
and said they would take their ve~
hides through CIO picket lines to
load gasoline pincipally for points
in Nevada, Oregon and Utah.
Oil industry spokesmen insisted
Saturday that west coast gasoline
supplies were “adequate” as then
strike against six major refining
companies entered its fourth week.
Industry spokesmen pointed out
all service stations were receiving
gasoline on a quota of 75 per cent
of July sales and asserted the quo
ta was close to normal for the fall
season, considering the heavy sales
during the July vacation period.
Oregon and Washington motor
ists were granted 20 per cent more
gasoline for September last night
by the industry’s allocation com
mittee. ^
