SSiS-'" Statehood Recommended IT DOES NOT necessarily follow that recommendation to Congress by President Truman will result in Alaskan statehood, but such recommendation is an important step with that end in view. The President had been carefidly advised on the pros and cons of the matter before he made his pronouncement that the time appears to have come when Alaska should be permitted to join the union as an autonomous state with all the privileges and the responsibilities that such autonomy implies. There may be considerable discussion and, without a doubt, some powerful opposition in certain quarters to Alaskan statehood opposition which has already made its appearance and may be expected to be carried through to the end. However, the prospects, as a result of the presidential pronouncement, are now vastly improved. rrince Rupert, as the most strategically located rail port to Alaska, is almost vitally interested in Alaska's campaign for statehood. Such statehood will release Alaska from many of the shackles of the territorial status. Possibly most important to us will be that, with statehood, the Jones Act, which restricts use of Canadian vessels in trading to Alaska, will become no longer applicable to Alaska as a state. RUSSIAN BACKGROUND GREAT MANY of those well-meaning folk who A are so anxious to prove themselves friends of Russia have assumed that the Russian attitude of chronic resistance springs not from anger but from a deep sense of hurt.

January 8, 1913 . Several large halibut schooners were busy in the harbor taking large catches of herring. The run was greater than any that was ever known before. Mr. and Mrs. W. O. Fulton arrived from Victoria on the Prince Rupert. Mr. Fulton, who was studying law with L. W. Patmore, had just passed his final examinations and planned to take up practice in the city. Fred Clarke of the fishing boat Rosine had hopes of building an aeroplane in which to fly across Vancouver harbor. He had already built one machine but it was destroyed in a Vancouver boat house fire.

They were surprised to hear "O Canada'' being played and soon found that commemoration services were being held tit the cenotaph close to the beach, also at the Canadian cemetery at Hautot - stir - mer, three miles south of Dieppe where Mrs. Brown's son.

Well, yes, they did. Though it must be admitted that, in the early days of the war, .they had invaded Poland and signed a mutual assistance pact with Germany. Later, as opportunity arose, Russian 'TrSops attacked Finland and occupied Lithuania, Latvia and Esthonia and threatened Romania. In June, 1941, Germany brought an uneasy association to a close by invading Russia. So it must be admitted that while Russia did bear the brunt of the German attack, it bore it in self-defence and had 'a great 'deal of western Allied help1 in that defence. History might suggest some explanation of the difficulties involved in finding a common ground between Russia and the rest of Europe. Russia learned to live under a rigorous and cruel dictatorship and its people learned to surrender their rights. The princes who drove out the Tartar invaders of Europe and the Czars who followed them changed the situation little. Dictatorship had become characteristic of Russian life. It has come to its full flower under the proletarian Stalin. Until there is reasonable evidence that Russia is hankering for freedom more than for dominance and that means until she sets aside the forthright methods of the Tartar in favor of the method of co-operation, she is bound to be misunderstood, and that despite efforts to misconstrue history or the somewhat woolly sentimentalism of her uncritical friends. ' UNCLE JOE'S HEALTH IF JOSEF STALIN is not afflicted with grave I disabilities, it will not be the fault of those who profess to know something about the state of his health. . One day it is asserted, though not confirmed, that he has suffered a stroke. Another time it is suggested that he finds it necessary to use crutches. And more than once, it has been claimed a cancer specialist, dropping all other duties, has been called to Moscow. Readers are left to their own conclusions. There cannot be anything but a continuation of uncertainty and unsupported rumor so long as the Iron Curtain remains undisturbed. It will be recalled that for months, previous to the passing of LeiVin, there was a long series of stories, and half-truths concerning periods of illness. If one remembers accurately, he had passed away some time '.before it Wame known officially that this ' was so.
