Long ago Adolf Hitler told subordinate that he would win the next great war not by frontal attacks with his army but by penetrating enemy imagination and ambition have consistently run ahead of performance, and his plans need some dls- counting Yet there are many indications that this technic of warfare has not been abandoned.
 Hiter's successes in Austria and Czechoslovakla were made possible by abundant preparation Of the ground through maze of spies. The real battle lin each case was won when his agents had dis solved the unity of the smaller neighbor states The same technic was successful in Poland but cer-
 sdnly the work of thousands of German civilians in Poland behind the lines made the work of the invading German Army easier
 Recent days have given new proof that Berlr age and sabotage Turkey declares gigantic sabo- tage plot was nipped just in time. German experts were spread through Turkish arms factories ano shipyards, naval and air bases They are being re- moved and deported
 Soon afterward it was revealed ln France tha the execution of an Alsatan autonomy leader wai only one small phase of a vast effort to corral tht agents of Germany sent on to foment defeatism ant treason within France.

 day disable 1,50OO00 Americans. It is the unsafe glass that everywhere menaces health and of1ehos any ordinary standard of decency.
 few years ago national magazine arucle told how the writer, accompanied by bacterlolo- gist visited a number of popular soda fountains in New York City, taking with them sterile agar plates which unobstrusively clapped over the rim of glasses served to them. From single water glass was grown 37,1l2225 germs in 330 colonies Iere was simple demonstration of the fact known 10 all health authorities, that germs can be com- municated through saliva exchange in every un- sanitary drugstore. restaurant or barroom.
 Health officials in Alaska and elsewhere are making a continuous, energetic attack upon this danger But the unsanitary drinking glass is a nuisance that will not abate without the help of an aroused public opinion. The remedy is slmple- scalding hot water and plenty of it. By this means, SO simple that it can be used everywhere ana by everone in public places well as in your home, the risk from bacteria be greatly reduced. And by the addition of certain simple chemical dlsln- fectants bacteria can be entirely eliminated.
 The campaign against the dirty public drinking glass is one well worth everyones cooperation

CONGRESSIONAL INCREDULITY

A news account from Washington tells us that Congressmen on the House Appropriations Commit tee express surprise that Seattle and Juneau are not linked by regular air service. Rep. Jed John- son of Oklahoma thought such line was long since in operation Rep. James M Fitzpatrick of New York thought it strange that American enterprise spanned the but neglected an Alaska airline
 We'll might Congressmen be mcredulous. We're surprised ourselves, every time think about 1t. The Seattle-Juneau airline. Governor Gruening says is Alaskas greatest immediate need" And it looks at last if the planes might go into serv- ice soon probably this spring. Hearings before the Civil Aeronautics Authority in Washington on a certificate of convenience and necessity for Pan American Airways service over the route have been concluded The conclusion nearly as we can gauge it from here, will be that such an airline is needed is physically feasible, has been soundly pioneered and that satisfactory mail contract awaits the operator The only apparent hitch is uncertainty of delivery of planes from factories which are working around the clock on war orders.
 WithTt9ne good work -which has been done in Washington recently by the Governor Delegate Di- mond PA officials and the CAA. however, the early institution of regular and of frequent Seattle Juneau air service is certainty.

THE GREAT UNWASHED

What really is the great unwashed'?
 It's not any group or class of people in the United States; soap sales settle that. It's not the name of a Broadway hit, a picture magazine a Pulitzer prize novel theory of government
 According to the Territorial Department Of Health, it is the public drinking gass-modern counterpart of the oldtime common cup. It is the glass that is served in thousands of eating and drinking places throughout the land It is the glass that isn't washed at all or was merely rnsed before it was handed you. It is the glass that may comfort 100000 bacteria; but lipstick may be the only visible sign of contamination It is the glass that looks clean but may be infected with trench mouth diphtheria tuberculosis and any one more other saliva-borne diseases that on an average Winter

M O D E R N ETIQUETTE
By Roberta Lss

Q. Would it be all right for one to proffer advice to a friend, when knowing that this friend is head ed for a sorrowful experience?"
 A. Yes, if you think the advice will be needed. Some people resent advice, and learn only by experi- ence. An old proverb says, "Ex- perience keeps a dear school but fools will learn in no other"
 Q. Doesn't a nice gift take the place of a bread-and-butter letter when one has been entertained at a weekend party?
 A. Never The letter should be written also.
 O. What is the proper time to announce dinner?
 A. Just as soon as the last guest has arrived.

"TOO Unbiased"
Cleveland Plain Dealer)


 Strange and wonderful is the reasoning of those who try to stife ideas with which they do not agree Sometimes ~ is also devastatingy illuminating.
 Witness the di-tress of Mrs Enwood J. Turner corresponding secretary of the Daughters of Colonial Wars, as reported in dispatch from Philadelphia, Mrs Turner urges parents to demand the banning as school text of American history by pr. Howard Rugg of Columbia
 Whats wrong with the book? We quote Mrs. Turner:
 The author tries to give an unbiased viewpoint. All the old histories taught my country, right or wrong That's the point of view want our chil- dren to adopt. We can't afford to teach them to be unbiased, to let them make up their minds.
 There's the Hitler idea perfectly expressed. One imagine Der Fuehrer wiring the secretary Of the Daughters of Colonial Wars: Sister, you said a mouthful."
 When America reaches the stage where it cant afford" teach it's pupils to be unbiased 1t will indeed be high time to and make room for a dictator.

cial denial that the w. P. A. was
padding its rolls In a political ma
neuver and also heard two witnesses
charge that w. P. A. workers were

any comparable time since the be-
ginning of the w. P. A. program.
The relief official denied conten-
