Adolf Hitler and Premier Musso-
lini were reported headed for the
Bremen Pass today for a meeting
which Axis sources limited would
set the stage for momentous de-
velopments.
Observers recalled that the Ger
man invasion OF Norway and Den
mark. was launched only three
weeks after the partners last met
in their Alpine rendezvous March
IS and speculated that another
equally surprising coup was in the
making.
European political circles thought
the meeting might presage an at
tack upon Gibraltar via an acquies-
cent Spain, or that II might serve
TO clarity Greece's uncertain posi-
ton In "the new Europe being
nodded by the Axis powers.
The fact that Spanish Minister
OF Government Ramon Serrano
Suner decided to prolong his stay
in Rome. where he has been con-
ferring with Italian statesmen. was
seen as lending color to the belief
that Spain somehow would be In

or twice a week by common car rier from the warehouse in Seat tie to the various stores and agencies.
 All sales are for cash and the amount of the sales in the stores is deposited to the account of the Liquor Board in a local bank each day, such funds being then transferred by that local bank to one of the central banks with which the Board has large depos- it arrangements. The agencies de- posit the amount of their sales in a local bank each day to spec ial account which is opened in the agents name. The agent trans mits the balance of this account to the Board weekly.
 Every store and agency is so located that it can receive freight and mail six days a week. The Board has two store supervisors who are on the road constantly and they visit each store on the average of once in two weeks. In addition, there are three trav cling auditors who audit the ac- counts of each store each month. The agency supervisor has three assistant supervisors working un der him and these four men visit and audit the agencies on the av- craze of about once every three or four weeks.
 "1 have gone into considerable detail in describing our mono poly operation in order to point out the reason why I feel that the system used in this state would not be economically feas- ible in Alaska. The very large distances and extremely sparse populations together with infre- quent and difficult means of con, munication and transportation would almost preclude any mont poly system such as the one 1T Washington. It appears almos obvious that the problem of in ventory control, the problems 0. delivering liquor from the cen tralized warehouse to the retai outlets to the central office would be so difficult and expensive as to absorb all profits which might be hoped for.
 "As stated in the beginning of this letter, this Board in addi- tion to operating this monopoly system has complete centralized licensing control of the sale of beer and wine and consequently I am familiar with both methods of control. It is my belief that you will find the licensing sys- tenn a better method than the monopoly system for Alaska.
