 National Bird''

Speaker Howard Lyng, in the House of Representatives, injected an international note into bit of House levity today in the discussion of a letter from Otto Geist, Univer- sity of Alaska archaeologist, urging passage of the bill repeating eagle bounty payment.
 Representive Davis remarked on Geist's reference to the eagle as our national bird" that Russia has two eagles and Germany two for their respective national emb- lems. I'm just bit in doubt as to whose bird this is, anyway"
 Straight-faced, Speaker Lyn g brought the House back to serious business with the statement, "Those birds over there are buzzards."

PLACER MINERS
 PROTEST WAGES
 AND HOURS LAW
Petition for Exemption of Alaska Industry in
 Seasonal Clause

Placer miners of Alaska have taken step towards securing ex- emption of Alaskan placer mining from the provisions of the Wages and Hours law, it was revealed in a communication to the House of Representatives today from Glenn Darlington and Company, in whose Fairbanks offices a meeting of miners was recently held.
 Congress will be asked to amend the clause wherein seasonal work is defined as fourteen working weeks or less, and make placer mining in Alaska thoroughly ex- empt
 Strongest reason advanced by the petition is that "extremely unpre- dictable weather" makes any set time for seasonal occupation as far as placer mining is involved inn practical.
 It is brought out that should the law go into effect as is, many min- ing properties will not be opened, and some may be abandoned.

LONDON-You're going to hear a lot about the Ukraine from now on.
 Ukrainians-the 45 million-od Slavs who comprise the eastern Eu- ropean race-have no nation as yet. But they will have soon, if Adolf Hitler has his way.
 The German dictator, by all signs, is getting ready to go hunting again.
 An Eye on Four States
 This time he is expected to train his sights on four European states Poland, Rumania, Hungary and Russia = in which Ukrainians are living. There are Ukrainians. too, in -Slovakia, but that ter ritcry already is fixed in the Nazi crbit.
 Don't get the idea that Der Fuehr- CT is going to take them all on at once, however.
 There is a subtler-and easier way of gaining territory, or domina- ton over territory, which amounts to virtually the same thing That way he learned from the Czecho- Slovakian affairs-the exploitat ton of minority squabbles. Such squab- bles are fostering all over eastern Europe.
 Hitler, therefore, say the political prophets, is planning to turn lib orator" cnce more-to champion the self determination" of the neigh boring Ukrainian section of Poland, which adjoins the Czecho- Slovak section now in his orbit-with the idea of setting up an autonomous republic. This would provide a pow erful starting off point for collect ing the remaining sections. (Only a small percentage of the Ukrain- ians live in, Rumania, Hungary and Ruthenia, the bulk residing in Po- land and Russia1.
 Dodgirg a Battle
 Poland is reported to have used stern methods to stem agitators among the millions of Ukrainians in east Poland. Hitler might argue that the Polish Ukramians should be freed from such tyranny"
 Afraid of being made the battle ground of any war between Ger many and Russia, Poland has court ed both countries. Relations with Germany cooled when Poland want

ed strip of Ruthenia to be made into a common frontier with Hun gary-and Hitler refused.

ed strip of Ruthenia to be made into a common frontier with Hun gary-and Hitler refused.
 Ruthenia, the Ukrainian section down in the southeast tip of Czecho- Slovakia, already has autonomy = thanks to the Vienna "arbitrat ton board" that mopped up after the Munich conference sounded taps for old Czecho-Slovakia.
 Ruthenia was a wonderful catch, for it gave Germany for the first time geographical link with the rest of Ukrainian territory. And don't think the Nazis aren't making the most of it.
 They have set up a 25-man con- sulate in this mountainous, unde- veloped little corner of Czecho-S Slo- vakia. And while Germany trains potential local leaders of the future Ukraine at political science school in Danzig, the Ruthenian government announces plans for es- tablishing university in Chust, the "one-horse" capital of Ruthenia.
 Culture or Propaganda?
 Observers say it's obvious that university in a section of half million peasants is intended as much for political propaganda as for cultural enlightenment.
 Poland may be something of a problem. But if it came to an issue of force, its 30 millions wouldn't stand show against the over whelming might of Germany's near ly 80 millions.
 But Hitler may try to avoid trouble, according to some reports, by offering Poland a share in the control of an autonomous Ukraine.
 Russia almost certainly would fight if Hitler made direct attack on the rich Russian Ukraine.
 It is now capable of producing third of the nations power and 80 percent of it's sugar require ments. Grain and cattle are raised in abundance on it's extremely fer tile soil which houses in addition mammoth stores of coal and oil.
 It's hard to predict. however, what will happen if Hitler tries to achieve his aims not by direct clash but by undercover promotion of the Russian Ukrainians' griev- ances.
 One possible barrier to any such scheme is the independence loving Ukrainian peasant He doesn't like his Russian rulers any too well, but he doesn't like the Germans, either - supposedly because Germ T troops that entered the Ukraine ir 1918 tried to reinstate the great landlords on estates that had been divided among the peasants. |
 But Hitler may offer, strategi- cally, an autonomous republic which would give him access to the rich resources of the area. Ant that's what Hitler has wanted fol years.

BACKGROUND av se-ais' For Years Hitler has wanted to harvest the riches of the Ukraine. His victory over Czecho- Slovakia, formerly the big barrier in his path to the Soviet Russian republic, proved he wasn't just dreaming about it. And there have been signs recently that the Ukraine would be the object of Germany's next big drive. The following story discusses possible German strat- egy.

They were all very brave"
Anderson said. "At first we
could hear nothing. Then we
heard voices. And finally, as
we came nearer and nearer, we

Anderson said the lifeboat

he said. Then I directed
those who were still on the ship
to get into the water and join

them together. We stayed held
together by locking arms. Some
