4. Remove apples from syrup. Then pour some of the syrup over each
individual serving. _

Alaska Steam Release
Decries F.M.B. Ruling
To End Charter Privilege
The Federal Maritime Board
has allowed Alaska operators to
•charter government-owned Lib
erty ships at compensatory rates
in order to assure Alaskans avail
ability of suitable ships and char
ter rates that Alaska tariffs can
support. If these vessels are with
drawn by the federal government
in line with the F.M.B. decision
of November 20 this can only re
sult in increasing expenses to the
steamship operators, and it is
doubtful that these increased ex
penses can be absorbed by pres
ent tariffs. • -
We have spent about $50,000
on each Liberty we have ta make
it suitable for the Alaska trade,
and, to our knowledge, there are
no privately- owned Liberties
available that are suitably
equipped.
Uhd'er government charter ar
rangements Alaska operators have,
paid 8V£ percent of the ship sales
value of a Liberty <$544,506) a
year as charter hire whether or
not the vessel earned that much
and up to 15 percent if that much
were earned. We have received
private charter offers of straight
15 percent which does not include
any consideration of whether or
not this amount is earned.
Under government charter, ves
sels are off hire when not used
in the trade. Private charters do
not include this privilege and,
furthermore, the vessels would
have to be secured well in ad
vance of the time required. Then
if the traffic did not hold up ac
cording to expectations, the op
erator would still be required to
charter the ship and pay the hire.
Under government charter, it
is not necessary to deliver and
re-deliver the vessels at the be
ginning and end of each season.
This would be required under
private charter—with inventory
ing and drydocking expenses in
volved in each such transaction.
Chartered government vessels are
kept in first-class condition, ready
for immediate use anywhere that
an emergency may require. Oth
erwise these vessels are rusting
out in the layup fleet.
Most of the privately - owned
Liberties are on the East Coast
and not on the West Coast.
To the operator and the Alas
kan, in addition to the other dis
advantage of the government de
termination to withdraw charter
ing privileges to Alaskan carriers
will mean an increase in charter
hire of about 100 percent on each
vessel involved.
Two Liberties operated by the
Alaska Steamship Co. are im
mediately effected: the George D.
Prentice and the John H. Quick.
Motion Made to dismiss
All Counts in Indictment
Against Ex-Bank Officials
ANCHORAGE, (/P)—A motion
for the dismissal of all seven
counts in the indictment against
two former officials of the Union
Bank of Anchorage has been
made in U.S. district court here.
Attorney Peter Kalamarides
made the motion in behalf of
Stanley McCutcheon and A. U.
Hassman, former secretary and
president, respectively, of the
bank.
The indictment alleges seven
misdemeanors under territorial
banking laws.
Kalamarides asked the dismis
sal on the contention that none of
the counts set forth facts to con
stitute a crime against the United
States. They allege improper
banking procedure and failure to
follow orders of the Territorial
Banking Board.
Sen. Langer Favors More
Internal Security Action
Against U.S. Reds in U.N.
WASHINGTON, (IP) — A possi
ble obstacle to continuation of the r
Senate Internal Security Subcom
mittee—1-and its search for Com
munists among American employ
ees of the United Nations—was
cleared away Saturday.
Sen. Langer (R-ND) told a re
porter he wants the subcommittee
kept alive and is “strongly in fa
vor of continuing its investigation
of U.N. employees.”
Langer previously had declined
to state his position, of particu
lar interest because in the new
GOP-controlled Senate he will be
in line to' be chairman of the Sen
ate Judiciary Committee, parent
body of the internal security unit.
Langer, one of the two senators
who voted against ratification of
the U.N. charter in July, 1950,
fought to uphold President Tru
man’s veto of the Internal Secur
ity Act written into law in the
fall of 1950.
