 East Asia Peoples

TOKYO. Oct. 3.-The newspaper Nichy NicIly said today that the entry of any new power into the Eu- ropean war will automatically draw Japan into the conflict.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3. v The lame ducks ordinarily limp out of Congress as inconspicuously as possible. Perhaps being little ashamed for having drawn blanks on the political wheel of fortune, they usually make the period be- tween their reelection failure ana the end of their terms one of quiet, sometimes one of complete absence from official duties.

 ARMY(HIEF
General Bulkner Predilts Lower Cost of Living
 in Alaska

Lowering of the cost of living in Alaska will be one of the results of national defense expansion in the Territory, Brigadier General Simon B. Buckner, Commander of Alaska defense forces, predicted to- day in talk before the Juneau Chamber of Commerce.
 The increased volume of trade and transportation as a conse- quence of population gains should lower prices and shipping costs in Alaska, he said.
 Prices are high everywhere in Alaska, believe unnecessarily high" the General declared.
 Gold Rush Is Over
 He said a tendency to exploit, ' which he described as holdover from the gold rush days when peo- pie came north not as Alaskans but to get as much as they could in short time to take out with them is a great detriment to AL aska.
 The General cautioned Alaska businessmen not to let the new people who are bound to come to Alaska get in the habit of buying from other than local merchants. He said these people know the prices Outside and it is only na- tural for them to send Outside for purchases when they find the things they want cost more locally than the Outside price plus the cos of transportation.

WASHINGTON.-How difficult 1t is for the Government to build LID a merchant marine reserve is illustrated by the inside story Of the Maritime Commissions efforts to get two large luxury liners built for trans Pacific service.
 As early as two years ago the Maritime Commission conceived the idea of building two passenger vessels with smoke-stacks on the side, so they could be converted into airplane carriers at a mo- ment's notice. The idea was well comed by the Navy. but the Mari time Commission couldn't get a single American shipping yard to bid on the vessels.
 All of them were busy with na- val orders, and also they didn't like the fact the Maritime Com mission worked out it's own de- signs So they turned cold shoulder.
 Meanwhile, the Japanese heard about the Maritime Commission s efforts to get bids, and last month they launched two passenger liners also with smoke-stacks on the side, convertible into airplane carriers In other words, they were two years ahead of the United States.
 And only on September 10-two years after the first effort was made-did the Maritime Commis- sion get bid from an American shipyard This came from the Todd Shipbuilding Company of Seattle, and the proposed price is $32,O00,- O0o, compared with only $15,00O.- GOO paid for building the liner America.
 The convertible airplane carriers would be a little larger than the America, but not enough to double the price. So the Maritime Con- mission will attempt to negotiate a lower price.
 NOTE-You can write it down as certain that the Government will build more navy yards of its own in the not too distant future
