Defense Program In
Alaska With Air Base
CONTINUED from Page One)

ures early Alaskan fears over Rus
sian-fortified Diomede alarm has
abated, he said.
In the wake of preparation COM
mon labor wages are at 80 cents
an hour; scarcely anyone makes
less than $40 a month. "A sophie
more in high school is making 5000
a month during this summer" he
quoted.
Average living costs have advanc-
ed little in the pace of new wage
levels, he said. Some rents have
advanced because Of scarcity of
housing, but that has promoted a
building program of some proper
tons. Hotels no longer have &C
commodations for tourists. There
is a shortage of skilled labor.
Alaska is ripe with opportunity
to be plucked, he pointed out, eff
you can get up there" There's no
demand for common labor but
those with skilled specialties are
in demand.
Sketching attitudes prevalent in
the territory Norbert said that
there is really little talk Of war
The European situation is much
less in the limelight there than in
the States.
There Is more intense attitude
against Russia and Japan in Alas
ka than against Hitler, though the
sentiment in Alaska as regard the
European maelstrom is pro-British.
In fact, he said, there weren't many
who would hesitate long in going
to war against either Russia or
Japan.
First alarm over Russian move
ment in the Boring Strait have
abated too on confidence. Frank
w." Norbert said, 1--WE feel one U.
S. Marine is worth four Russians
or Japs any day."
Most alarming to Alaska general
ly Is talk of forsaking the gold
standard which would be Gripping
to Alaskan gold, the territory's sec
ond largest major industry. But
Alaskans feel too that some med
ium of exchange is going to be nee
essary, regard it with tongue in
cheek attitude.
Among these the new program
has drawn to Alaska he pointed
out that a former Sank Centre resi-
dent, Ben Allen and family, are in
Anchorage now.
Employee of the Alaskan rail-
road, Norbert will be in this vicin-
ity until October. He arrived
here last Friday, joined his family
who have spent the summer in
Sank Centre and Melrose. Norbert
is the son of Mrs. Elizabeth Nathe.
Of this city. His wife is the daugh-
ter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Carl c. Carl
son, Of Melrose.

Like aloha, the lei is symbol
of welcome and farewell. Leis OF

nation lei will sell for 35 cents;
but just before ship sailing time

they can't be kept. It takes 10C

crept organization. and the Lei

cause the women sellers had sc
many price wars that it was un-

Last Thursday at her home she

SAYS, is as it was in the original

Her farewell lei, as she left the

Disturbing Rumors Com. plicate Relief Picture;
 Waterbury Gives

John M. Hurrall, local Chairman of the Waterbury Chapter, Ameri- can Red Cross, today received word from National Headquarters in Washington that tho War Relief Fund throughout the country reach- ed the $i6,000, ,000 mark, toward their minimum goal of $2o,o00,000. The following message was sent to Ma jor Burrall from Washington:
 "The campaign has been difficult, Our Chapter leaders have faced every possible handicap; great stock market losses; the prospect of high- CT taxes; the urgency of America s preparedness for defense: confusion as to the appropriation by Congress for $50,000,000 for surplus commodi- ties for European relief; the surren- der of France; the false rumors that Red Cross supplies have fallen into the hands of those for whom they were not intended; ia fact, enough obstacles have arisen to daunt the courage of any group that could not look back upon sixty years of success in overcoming difficulties our Red Cross Chapters. They have carried on this battle on behalf of innocent victims of brutal warfare in Q spirit that is in keeping with the finest traditions of our past. We are counting upon your Chapter to go forward this long last mile of the campaign and to carry the relief fufnd to victory during the next few weeks"
 The War Relief Fund in Water- bury has now reached $2i, ,i00,0S. All contributions should be sent to the local Chapter of the American Red Gross, S6 Field Street,
