An Anniversary and a Reminder
Twenty-three years ago tomorrow the business
district of Nome, its hotels and many of its homes lay
in ashes following a fire which in four hours destroyed
its picturesque and historical wooden streets and all
those things which remained of the gold rush days.
In its place have been erected buildings and homes
•planned for permanent use, and gradually these are
being replaced by fireproof buildings.
The fire should be a reminder to present residents
that adherence to the Territorial Fire Code will help
greatly in preventing any more devastating fires.
This is the time of the year to remember to clean
-out those stoves which have been burning low all
summer as well as stacks which collected soot.
Don’t wait until someone has a bad fire before
taking action.
Russia Warns
Turkey Not to
Start World War
MOSCOW, UP)—'The Soviet Un
ion again has warned Turkey any
military move against Syria may
spread into world war.
The wanning was based on So
viet charges the United States
wants “to organize military inter
vention from without in Syria’s
internal affairs.” Turkey, which
lies between Russia and Syria
was warned not to join in .-the
alleged U.S. plans.
The warning was contained in
a personal letter from Soviet Pre
mier Bulganin to Turkish Pre
mier Menderes. It was delivered
in Ankara Wednesday and was
broadcast Friday night by Mos
cow radio.
The day before the Soviet letter
was delivered, Foreign Minister
Gromyko accused Turkey of con
centrating troops on the Syrian
border. Turkey replied its troops
are only on normal maneuvers.
In his first foreign policy dec
laration in about a month, Bul
ganin wrote:
“We have met with great con
cern the report about Turkish
troop concentrations on Syria’s
borders, as well as about the ship
ments of American arms to Tur
key to effect an attack against
Syria. . . .
“The Soviet Union cannot re
main indifferent to these events.”
The Soviet Premier did not note
that the reports he referred to
originated with Soviet and pro
Soviet Middle-Eastern sources.

India Moves to
Get Red China
Seat in U.N.
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., Uft—
India moved Saturday to get
Communist China seated in the
United Nations Assembly’s 12th
session, starting Tuesday.
Indian delegate Arthur S. Lall
said he gave Secretary General
Dag Hammarskjold a letter late
Friday night proposing the As
sembly put on its agenda the
question of “representation of
China in the United Nations.”
The United States is certain to
oppose this proposal.
Ambassador Lall told a news
i man he had not yet canvassed
other delegations and did not
know how many votes he could
get on a bid to seat the Peiping
government. Bit he added: “We
are certainly going to try.” The
Peiping government is the real
government of China, he said.
Nationalist China now holds
the Chinese seats in the 81-nation
assembly, the 11-nation Security
Council, where it has the veto
power, and other U.N. bodies.

Russian embassy attaches picked
up for questioning on spy charges
in Istanbul were released Satur
day and asked to leave Turkey.
The two were identified by

Straits.

documents.
Meanwhile, Turkey’s govern
ment remained silent on Soviet
Premier Bulganin’s charge that
Turkish troops were poised on

U.N. General Assembly Votes 60-10
I
NfcW Condemnation of Soviet Union
For Repression of Hungarians
By MAX HARRELSON
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., UP)—
The U.N. General Assembly Sat
urday brushed aside “neutralist”
protests and voted a new con
demnation of the Soviet Union
for repressive measures against
! the Hungarian people.
The condemnation was a key
provision of a 37-nation resolu
tion approved in a special meet
ing of the 81 - nation assembly.
The vote came after four days of
debate. The count was 60 in
favor, 10 against and 10 abstain
ing.
The only negative votes were
cast by the nine Soviet bloc coun
aries and Yugoslavia. Those ab
staining were Afghanistan, Cey
lon, Egypt, Finland, India, Indo
nesia, Nepal, Saudi Arabia, Syria
and Yemen. South Africa was ab
j sent.
, The result was a victory for the
United States.
The U.S. delegation, headed by
Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge,
had taken the lead in lining up
support behind the resolution and

in resisting attempts by several
Asian nations to tone it down.
The resolution placed the As
sembly squarely behind the U.N.’s
five - member committee of in
quiry which has condemned the
Soviet Union and the Hungarian
regime of Janos Kadar for mass
deportations and indiscriminate
slaughter in putting down last
fall’s uprising.
It called on the Russians and
the Kadar government to “desist”
from the repressions, and it
named the Assembly president,
Prince Wan Waithayakon of
Thailand, as special representa
tive to carry on the U.N.’s efforts
to aid the Hungarian people.
Prince Wan promptly accepted
the mandate. He frankly ac
knowledged he had no plan of
action, but expressed confidence
that something could be done.
One suggestion was that he try
direct negotiations in Moscow.
But the bitter Soviet opposition
to the resolution gave little en
couragement that such a move
would get very far.
One favorable factor wag the
high esteem in which Prince Wan
is held by the Russians as well as
the Western powers.
