of all ordinary first class mail and all other classes of mail.
 The proposed legislation seeks to authorize under GAA certificates the carriage of all classes Of mail by air. the rates to be fixed by the Author ity. It further seeks to authorize the Postmaster General to contract for the carriage of all classes of mail over any route for which no eertifi- cate has been issued, with the pre- vision that at any time later the Authority may issue a certificate riage of mail Whereupon the con- tract made by the Post Office De- partment will cease to be operative.
 It Is expected that the bill will receive favorable action by the Con- gress at the current session and will be approved by the President.
 LICENSE TAXES FOR CITIES
 The President has approved s. 3491, to provide for the payment to cities of Alaska of fines imposed by the District Court for failure to pay license taxes on businesses located in those cities, from fund "C" of the District Court to the respective cit ies' treasuries.

 Other army officials have esti- mated that the firms now manu- featuring uniforms might turn out 10000 a week. If there were one uniform to a man and nobody ever wore one out or slipped and ripped his brooches. it would take two years to get 100000 recruits into the trapnings of war.

 Training Is

WASHINGTON, June 28-Foot- note on defense: If you have any convictions about compulsory mili- tary training Cor a "selectiye ser vice" plan of some kind) you better sit down and write your congress man or senator because something is going to be done about it-and quickly.
 The primary reason: The Presi- dent, the army and many Congress- men feel Congress already has de- voted more billions to defense mach inery than a voluntary army will be able to man.
 The reason is this
 Q)-Defense isn't any good with out man power. You could spend a billion a. day on the best ships, planes, tanks and guns in the world and you couldn't hold off two para chutists armed with beanshooters if you didn't have trained men to op- crate the machines.
 (2)-The army doubts if you could get half million men through voluntary enlistment. Our experience at the beginning of the

 R.O. T. c. FOR U. OF ALASKA
 The House Committee on Military Affairs has unanimously reported Delegate Dimond's bill, Fl. R. 9391, authorizing the formation Of a Re serve Officers Training Corps in fantry unit at the University of AL aska with a minimum of 50 stud ents, instead of 100 as required by general law. The bill has the appro- val of the War Department and the Bureau of the Budget, and a Senate counterpart has already been re- ported faYorably from the Senate Military Affairs Committee.
 AMENDMENT OF GAME LAW
 On February 14. 1940, Delegate Dimond introduced in the House a bill, IL R. 8474. to amend the Alas ka Game Law by modifying the pro vision of the present law which per mits an Indian. Eskimo. prospector, traveller to take animals or birds during the closed season when he is lin ABSOLUTE NEED OF FOOD and other sufficient food is not avail able The amendment seeks to strike out the word absolute" for the reason that the law as written is said to have been construed to for bid such taking as long as the In dian, Eskimo, prOspector or traveller in question had any food, no matter how small the amount might be. The Chairman of the House Committee on Territories has now received from Acting Secretary of the Inter for Burlew a letter saying that the Department has no objection to the enactment of the bill.

World War Is most recent proof. but it has been a recognized military fact since the revolution.
 Therefore. compulsory military training seems inevitable. and since this country recognizes the equality of men. chances are that 1t will be universal compulsory military train ing-probably going under the name of selective serVice-unless some body finds a more appealing name.
 A Potential 170O0,O0O
 One effort to make military training compulsory among boys in CCC camps has failed. The eoncen- sus of those opposed. as it has been of those opposed to drafting men on relief, is that there must be no class, social or economic distinctions in building up our fighting force. They argue it should get the Tom loads. all right. but should get the Johnny Wall-streeters, too.
 One proposal is to put up a law to require registration Chats just registration. mind you) of all men between the ages of Is and 48. This would put about 25.00O, 900 on the rolls. On the basis Of World War eX- perience about S,O00,0O0 of these would be found physically unfit for military service.
 That would leave a potential army (hypothetieally. of course there would have to be exemptions1 of 17,00O,O00 men. Actually, stra- tegists consider only men from 19 to 35 for combat purposes and in this group there are only about 12.- 900, ,000 men.
 From these rolls, then. would be drawn the men who would receive military training on the same basis that we went into armed force in the World War, we would have 4.- 800,O00 men in training before 1942 That's possible, but it means the United States would have to turn itself into an even greater arm ed camp than 1t was in 1917 and 1918.
 Couldn't Stand The Calf
 It is not the intention to put for ward anything as drastic as that now Our present defense program even travelling full speed ahead couldn't stand the gaff.
 What is more likely is that 3 program will be worked out to draw from very narrow age limits, per haps 19 to 21 or 22, to put 1000 GOO young men into training i'm. mediately.

STAR ROUTE MAIL SERVICE

The House Committee on the Post Office and Post Roads has ordered a favorable report upon bill, H. R. 9851, authorizing special arrange ments ill transportation. of mail on star routes in Alaska.
 This legislation is necessary by reason of the passage in 1888 of the Civil Aeronautics Act which gives to the Civil Aeronautics Authority the power to fix rates for carriage of mail over any specified route up- on issuance of a certificate of pub lie convenience and necessity. With respect to Alaska the Act provides that the contracts therefore made by the Postmaster General for the car riage of mail by air should remain in force until certificates of public convenience and necessity should be issued. The Authority has made a detailed investigation of conditions in Alaska and of the routes over which mail is carried by air and will soon be ready to issue certificates.
 However, it now appears, accord ing to the opinion of the Post Office Department officials that under cer- tificates of the Authority it may not be possible to carry any mail ex- cept that upon which air mail post age has been paid, to the exclusion

these two schools.
The last meeting OF these two

The teams should be quite even

halfback Don McNichol will be lost
to the Harvard team for the Michi-

Joe Gardella were the big guns in
the Harvard attack and the loss
