outlined his case to Attorney Gen

and from them received the per
mission to make full exposure
of the extent and ramifications of
the ring. from the lowliest pawn
to the high command.
No information on the ultimate
extent of the investigation, or on
the IS more indictments expected
could be obtained from Hardy or
Leon G. Turrou, veteran CHAN
who worked on the case an average
of 1872 hours a day for three and
half months, and who was cred
tied by Hardy with an "extraordi-
nary piece of detection"
It was intimated in other quar-

would take in the question of OBJ
struction of justice, such as was
involved in the escape of DR..
Griebl and the flight of other i'm

JURY BREATHING SPELL
Hardy said the grand jury would
resume it's deliberations after "a

week.
In the meantime, Hardy said,
the status of 16 men and women
still held as material witnesses in
the investigation will remain un-
changed.
The investigation is by no
means complete" he said. Nat

We've heard no particular protest from Tokyo against the expansion of the Army plant at Fort Lewis for instance against the continuing development of both Army and Navy establishments in Hawaii. Alaska more nearly approaches Japan; but so that is no reason for difference to the shadow of a doubt

ALASKA, A REVENUE PRODUCER

Sometimes it sounds like great deal of money that is being spent Alaska in moving 1t along toward further development But too often it IS over looked that the amount of wealth produced by Alas kans is much greater than in the States The Fair banks News-Miner makes the point when it says;
 The eight to ten millions dollars which resident and nonresident Alaskans-indviduals and com panies-pay into the Federal treasury annually through income taxes and other forms of Federal revenue come into bold relief when compared with what is contributed by the far greater population of continental America.
 With only 30000 whites, Alaska far more than pays her share and therefore is entitled to far greater return in proportion to population than any other American possession Compare the magnificent contribution by Alaska's little army of industrious people as contrased with the 1300000o0 or so in con- tnensal America and it is easy to see why this Ten to.g is en1tled to generous Federal allowances.
 Assuming that the revenues of the Federal sov- ernmen for the year, from income and other sources is s9OQ0 the Territory is entitled to credit of $500 per capita for every white person-man, woman and child in the Territory
 If all continental America paid in like proportion its total contribution would reach the enormous sum of thirty nine billion Actual figures show that the total last year was but fraction of that sum, or $ 685 GOO OO0-and that included not only income taxes but also excess profits taxes social security taxes railroad retirement and all other internal revenue taxes. Income taxes accounted for less than half the total
 Alaska stands out a little giant of production and in revenue paid to Uncle Sam No other Ameri- can possession gives per average individual. It is worth noting that fewer than three million persons in the entire United States paid income taxes in 1886, and fewer than six million individuals earned as high as S1OO0 for the year.
 Uncle Sam has good reason to keep this northern treasure vault producingto that it is encouraged with every possible facility and modern project.

Alaskas strategic location part of the national defense program cannot be over-stressed although steps being taken by the Army and Navy for centering some activities in the north Pointing out the need for further defense of the Territory the Seattle Times comments:
 There has been talk of giving Alaska some benefit of Army and Navy appropriations. We state the case in this fashion because for many after the Civil War nearby Army post was considered valuable asset to almost any city and to have Naval base or station earnestly desired by every community that could furnish to salt water. We what past that stage and the supposition is that Army and Navy expenditures permanent estab- lishments should be devoted to strategic locations Tn that respect part of country qualities any better than Alaska There should be Army post of considerable dimensions in the Territory, with shore facilities for the Navy extensive the long coast line clearly calls for.

Thieves Compact

 The great and solemn compact binding Germany Italy and Japan to struggle together against inter national Communism" has been feared as the basis for Fascist attempt to the world and hailed as the corner stone of new world system.
 The pact is having it's first test. Japan en- gagged in saving China finds itself gravely endan- gered by Russian military pressure that demands the diversion of of thousands of Japanese troops from the Chinese front.
 If the Fascist pact is the awesome thing it is supposed to be- the least Japan could ask and expect from it's ally Germany is pressure on Russias European frontier.
 And Japan this week did ask for some such mater al assistance But after the Japanese Ambassador saw the German Foreign Minister Joachim von Rib bentrop diplomats and newspapermen in Berlin were allowed to learn that Japan has Germany's sym pathy"-and that's all

 Tt is accepted authentic viewpoint that the Reich realizes that it has in Japan an embarrassing ally it's hands Whatever platonic affections may be implied in the threecornered anti Commintern pact it may be safely assumed that they do not envsage any expansion in the direetion of military obligations"

Our Evolving Foreign Policy
(New York Times

(New York Times)
 The chief importance of the address delivered recently by MT Hull lies in its timing. Tn making occasion to restate the attitude of the United States toward what is going in the world the Sec retary of State chose moment when the tension in Europe is coming head All he said clearly refers to the European crisis and is obviously intenoed our contribution to the solution of the crisis it's way-speed instead of action-it is the American equivalent to the British action in sending Viscount Runciman to Prague. As declaration it stands out because other Government has had anything to say in reference to the present and because the Secretary waited to speak until the President. turned to Washington thus emphasizing the official character of his statement
 Besides it's timing MT Hulls broadcast is mpor- tant account of the increased emphasis prin- cples he has stated many times before. There is nothing new in the statement It follows the lines his countrymen and the rest of the world have learned to expect of the Secretary of State As in previous ances he expounds again his well-known program based on breaking down economic nationalism and building up observance of international law. He be- lieves and evidently events have not shattered his belief that if the world could be induced to follow the example of the Montevideo conference and agree on certain principes-very general princples-the rest will follow
 With constant reiteration, however, the evangel becomes clearer and definite. Each declaration goes almost mperceptibe distance beyond the Now Mir. Hull says that it will soon no onged be possible for nations to choose and follow the way of force and other nations at the time to choose and follow the way of reason. All will have to in direction and by way. Our practical problem" he adds lis that of finding and employing the best methods of cooperating with other na- tions that seeking we are proceed along that way Gof reason. On this problem the Government of the United States has been and is constantly at work
 The increased emphasis is on the lmpossibility of Americans remaining unaffected and uninvolved in what happens elsewhere whether it is war economic chaos the extension of the where political freedom is denied There is no mistaking the impi- cations of this statement another step away from isolation the gradual evolution of general princi- ples toward a program of action. MT Hull warns Americans that they not safe, either in their po tical institutions their homes in their individual liberty To the extent that he makes this truth urgent he expresses the slow but sure growth public understanding of the real issues face in the present world. Since MT. Hull has contributed as much as any to this understanding, what he says may be taken significant reflection of America in the process of changing its mind.
