Tommy Allen Getting Five Hundred Dollars a Week
 with Expenses

Tommy Allen, g, former Juneau man, is in China fighting the Jap anese, according to letter recelv- ed from Allen recently by Bud Foster, radio announcer at KlNY. c. B. Arnold, Manager of KINY saw Allen in Seattle shortly before the young man left for the Oriental war zone. A week after Allen left, the Secretary of War decreed that no more citizens of the United States would be allowed to get pass ports to fight in foreign wars. I'll be getting around five hun dred dollars a month and fat bonus for every Japanese I get, " grinned Allen to Arnold, after he had signed on with the Chinese as an observer and machine gunner ! In Aliens letter to Foster he said. Two Americans, one Holland Dutchman and myself were sent up from Hong Kong to be temporarily assigned to Tin Hoo Airdrome, Can ton, but the Japs blew hell out of it before we had chance to report for duty. We now have to watch the air raids from our respective suites, without being able to go up after them. It's tough to have our fun spoiled, as life is just one air raid after another.
 "The Japs are going to raise par ticular hell around here from the 18th to the l7th (they did) as there is a full moon on the 18th.
 Were going north in a few days to form an international squadron a sort of Foreign Legion outfit at Ranking. Two other fliers, one New Zealander, and the other ar Australian, have joined us, making our total six.
 Well be the first white men 1T action against the Japs All other stories are false. There are only five American fliers up north now and only in the capacity of in structors.
 None of our expenses now being incurred are detraeted from oul pay-and there are a hell of a lo of them. We kill about S3,000 z week between us in national cur. rency"

 Daniel Doherty, National Com mander of the American Legion, in an address, said the memory of the dead is best served by "enthrone- ment of enduring peace"
