COMMITTEE
FORMS TO
PUSH ROAD
Alaska Emergency Defense
Group Urges Building
Highway North

SEATTLE. Oct. IL. = Citing the
geographical similarity between ILL
fated Norway and Alaska from a
defense standpoint, the Alaska
Northwest Emergency Defense Com
mittee, organized here last night,
urged immediate steps be taken to
construct an Alaska highway.
A resolution introduced by DR.. K.
H. Falkenburg, representing the Sc
attic Norwegian Commercial Club,
said Norway could not be defended
by the British Navy because of con-
stricted waters. 1t pointed out that
Alaska could be defended only by
air and sea and that because of
storms, low visibility and its thou
sands of miles of Seacoast, adequate
defense by water was problematical.
Said the Committee:
1.-THE cost of the proposed high
way is estimated at $25 100000. This
is small item in total defense COM
mitments for Alaska and would fur
nish military supply depot at Haz-
elton, northernmOst point of the
continental rail system, thereby
meeting the main requisite of mill
tary strategy, speed of surface t,ails-
port. Supplies and munitions Of
war could be forwarded to Fairbanks
in two days instead of seven or eight
days. Location behind the coastal
ranges makes it immune to attack. -

Vice Presidential Cdndi-
date Tells Of Aims
of Nazis

WASHINGTON, Oct 12.-Demo-
cratic Vice Presidential Candidate
Henry Wallace urges America to
be calm in the face of what he
calls "the biggest crisis in history.
Wallace in his speech was out
right in his accusation that Germany
is trying to obtain more footholds
in America in an effort to defeat
the Western Hemisphere which the
Nazis regard as the last strong
hold of democracy.
Wallace warned sharply against
what he called the broken prom
ises of the dictator nations and
declared that "he that sups with
the devil needeth a long spoon.
No private financier, no corpora
ton and no nation alone is secure
enough to have dealings with the
dictator without the constant dam
ger of betrayal"

WASHINGTON - The new iron
and steel scrap embargo finally shut
off one of Japan's key military sup
plies. But few know that the door
still is wide open for another equally
vital war material which is supposed
to be under drastic ban.
On July 26 the President set up a
licensing system on exports of high
test aviation gasoline. Aimed chief
ly at Japan, this move has been ef-
fective-as far as it goes. It has
stopped the flow of top u. S. avia-
ton fuel to Nipponese war planes.
But through a loophole as big as
a barn door, Japan has been able,
despite this supposedly stringent en-
barge. to obtain all the U. S. gas it
needs for the bombers that are rain
ing death and destruction on help
less Chinese cities and villages. This
loophole is the little-noticed pro-
vision that limits the embargo only
to a certain super-grade of gas-87
octane and over.
This type of fuel is essential for
modern aerial warfare. Without it
planes are not able to attain the
great speeds necessary in dog fights
and raids such as take place night
and day over Britain.
But Japan is not up against that
kind of battling. Its bombers and
fighter planes face no aerial OPP
position. They have the skies to
themselves. They don't need super
gas. They can do just as well on
lower octane fuel. Their job is no
different than an ordinary transport
planes. They haul out load OF
bombs, dump it and fly back.
And so, with high octane gas
barred. the Japs have been using
what they could get-and have con-
tinued their ruthless bombing with
out interruption.
The story is told in the following
unpublished government figures. In
the month after the imposition OF
the so-called embargo, Japan I'M
