‘New Glory to Old Glory"
Friday, June 14th, is Flag Day. The flag is the
symbol of the precious principles of Americanism and
of our renewed effort to secure the goal of liberty and
justice for all.
The leaders of the American Legion say, “Help
us bring ‘new glory to Old Glory’ so that all the world
may know that this remains the land of the free and
the home of the brave.”
Every home and every business house is asked
to display the flag and renew their pledge of allegiance,
remembering that Alaska is part of “one nation under
God, indivisible” and will some day have a star of its
own to symbolize its loyalty.
Eisenhower
Rehounds From
Stomach Upset
WASHINGTON, UP)—President |
Eisenhower, “virtually recovered” i
from his stomach upset, unexpect- j
edly spent about an hour and 45 j
minutes at his desk yesterday.
The President greeted a group
of visiting photographers with a
broad smile. He was in execellent
spirits and there was little trace
in his face of the illness which
kept him confined to bed all day
yesterday.
The President was natty in a
light brown suit, white shirt and
red tie with a purple figure.
He asked photographers if they
wanted him to stand or remain
seated at his desk. They asked
him to stay seated.
“Is your stomach sore ” one
photographer asked Eisenhower.
“No, not at all—it isn’t this
morning,” the President replied
with a chuckle. Then he added:
“I’d be able to do with a few
steaks.”
Firing of Manager of
Chugach Electric Assn.
Results in New Dispute
ANCHORAGE, UP>-^The firing
of the manager of the Chugach
Electric Assn, at Anchorage has
resulted in a new dispute within
the big power cooperative.
A minority committee of mem
bers said Monday an effort would
be made to oust tWo members of
the board of directors who last
Wednesday voted to fire Marlin
S. Stwart as manager of the $11
million electric co-op.
The comnjittee leaders said
they would seek 1,000 signatures
on a petition calling for a special
membership meeting to vote for
dismissal of CEA board president
George E. M. Gustafson and Di
rector Virgil O. Seiser.
Gustafson and Seiser joined
with two other directors in a 4-3
vote last Wednesday to remove
Stewart from office.
Saturday Stewart countered with
a breach of contract suit against
the CEA seeking $32,000, which he
says is due him as the balance of
his salary on a 3-year contract.
Improvement always seems pos
sible, especially in the other man’s
bailiwick. I
Liberal Party
Wins Canada’s
National Election
TORONTO, UP)—Canada’s “New j
Deal,” Prime Minister Louis St. (
Laurent’s Liberal Party, was
ousted from power in Monday’s {
national election. It had con
trolled the government 22 years. J
The Conservative Party, led by
John Diefenbaker, turned in a
stunning upset but its victory was
not clear-cut. The Conservatives
may seek another election within
a year in an effort to gain a ma
jority control of Parliament. The
party that controls the House of
Commons runs the government.
Nearly complete returns gave
the Conservatives 110 seats and
the Liberals 103 in the 265-seat
House. The other seats went to
minor parties or were in doubt.
Canadians by the thousands de
cided it was time for a change.
The conservatives had taken
only 31 percent of the vote in the
1953 election; Monday they won
39 percent. The Liberals’ 1953
figure of 49 percent dropped to 41.
The Socialist Party, with 24
seats, and the Social Credit Party,
with 19, said they would not join
a coalition cabinet.
The Conservatives, while nom
inally more to the right than the
Liberals, have given no indication
they intend to try to change the
welfare state aspects of the long
Liberal regime. Diefenbaker, in
fact, has promised to try to boost
old age pensions while cutting
taxes.

U.S. Chides Soviets
For Not Abiding by
U.N. Charter
WASHINGTON, UP!—'The Unit
ed States told Russia today Soviet
threats and subversion are the
cause for joint defensive meas
ures in the Middle East.
By way of contrast, this gov
ernment said in a formal note
that opposition to the use of force
in settling international disputes
has long been a “cardinal ele
ment” of U.S. policy and is em
bodied in the charter of the Unit
ed Nations.
By that basis the United States
rejected as “unneccessary” a call
by the Kremlin for a Big Four
declaration condemning the use
of force in settling Middle East
disputes.
The State Department, in mak
ing public the note delivered in
Moscow yesterday, said Britain
and France are making similar
replies to a Soviet proposal made
last April 19.
The U.S. note suggested Russia,
rather than repeating declarations
to which it is already a party,
should put into force the U.N.
charter’s principles.
In this connection, the note J
chided Russia about its use of j
force in Hungary and its “cam
paign of threat and ihtimidation"
through messages to members of j
the Atlantic alliance.
