 at Village Here

Martha Kunz, five-year- Native girl was burned seriously in the eyt and about the face this morning when a stove exploded at the Ed ward Kunz home in the Indian Will lage. Her mother, Mrs. Cecilia Kunz was burned less seriously.
 The girl was rushed to the Gov ernment Hospital where it was re- ported she may lose her eye.

The stove was knocked out on all sides by the explosion, which threw hot embers and ashes all over the kitchen and shattered large win- dow across the room Martha was standing near the stove and her mother about ten feet aawy. The girl was unconscious when taken to the hospital by taxicab.
 As soon as it was cool enough to be handled the stove was carried across Willoughby Avenue and thown on the beach. It is com- pletely ruined.
 Mrs. Kunz was treated at the hospital Her husband, the girls father. has been a patient there for some time, receiving medical i treatment.

OFFICERS TO
 DRIVE ISLAND
 IN MAN HUNT
Crazy Man" Hides Out in Woods Woman
 FIees in Fear

Lonely Marsh Island, 30 miles be- ow Wrangell on the West shore )f Eetolin Island, is the scene of a man hunt and drive" today for Tom Nilsen alien resident there who is allegedly crazy" according to a Mrs. McCracken who went to Wran- gell "in fear of her life.'
 Federal officers and Game Con- mission men are to leave today to drive the island in a nattempt to apprehend Nilsen who first fell afoul of the law in thsi drama of the woods through an alleged game law violation.
 A few days ago Wild Life Agent Hosea Sarber, of Petersburg, report ed he found Nilsen, an alien, with firearms and trapping, with the geason closed on fur.
 Because of rough sea, making towing of Nilsen's boat to Peters burg dangerous, Sarber released Nil- sen With the promise received that ne would appear at Sarber's office n Petersburg, but he failed to ap- pear and Sarber had a warrant worn out for hsi arrest.
 At that 'juncture, Mrs. McCrack- en, from Marsh Island, went to Wrangell and reported to officers, There's a crazy man on the is- land"
 In the meantime Wild Life Agent Gary Banta, from Ketchikan, had stopped at Marsh Island on patrol md Nilsen had run into the woods with his gun and hid. although wardens searched the cabin side of he shore. Lack of tracking snow made the hunt difficult. : It is believed several officers will reach the island today and beat ths woods and brush, and if necessary shoot it out" with Nilsen.

 Hitler added that these two men were exceedingly instrumental in the bringing about of peace. instead of war in the Munich crisis. He also said that the German people were practically as a whole very intel ligent race, that those who did not understand the principles of Nazism were either not whole mentally, or were enemies of the Reich who would have to be done away with.
 Colonies, Robbery
 Hitler declared that it was rob bery of German colonies" after the World War. morally wrong econom- ically and sheer madness"
 Hitler further said No people are born who have a greater right to the German colonies than we have. The German colonial posses sions which the Reich once acquired in peace through treaty and by purchase, were stolen from us under protest that these colonial posses sions are of no value anyhow. This then should justify their return to us without any trouble"
