FoRG OFTEN CHILDREN (con't) If one could be sure of the time at Whi oh he was exposed, there would be little need for advance protection. But no one can be sure. Not more than one in a dozen victims knows whore he got the disease. From a Public Healtl stand2oiat, "an unva ccinated in dividual is the focal point of a potential, epidemic" Did you know that only about l2 states in the U.G.. do rot have com pulsory vaccinatio on law? We do not have sp ch a law in Alaska. The purpose Of this article is to bring home to the parents in the Valley some revealing local figures. They are revealing be- cause they testify to a neg
 lect of our pres chool child who needs the sane proT6ction that the, achoo1 chi1d needs: while 94l5 of our school children have been vaccinatod, 36% tor over l/3) of our .srs-' cloolers (agol to s yoars) have not received this protection. We can be
 proud( but not too proud) of the high percentage of inDrunizotion among tho school childron1 but equally concerned over tho fact that so large a percentage of =" our pres choolcrs have not had tht same DrlViloGo thoro is no cx- cuae for thia "forgotton ch1ld'. All children should be vaccinatcd by one Tcer of age. If vacc1n- oted before or at this age, the reactio" is slight. Vac cination should then be repeatod at the time the child enters school, five years later, and again at the age CT twelve years or in the pres onco of: an epidemic.

Radios Inspected
To make sure no broadcasts
would come from the ship, Russian
inspectors sealed up the radio
rooms, Johnston said.
They inspected every radio set
on the ship several times" John
ston commented. ito make sure
none of them had broadcasting at

After the crew received passes,
Johnston went ashore.

Finnish Troops
Back
FINLAND

Finnish troops today began
their withdrawal from the northern
part of the fighting front. the $50
mile stretch north of Lieska in
mid Finland, under the peace
treaty with Russia.
As in the withdrawal farther
south. which was started yester-
day. all civilians who remained in
the zones ceded to Russia were
evacuated ahead OF the army.
Roads leading inland from
Hango, the gulf coast city leased
to Russia for a naval base. were
blocked by trucks and sleds, loaded
with the 1000 people who had re-
NAMED there. and their household
goods. Vehicles were piled so high,
reports from the area said, that
despite all efforts of authorities
to control traffic. trucks and
sledges kept skidding OFF roads
into bitches.
Won't Leayr Goods
Authorities had asked refugees
to take only the most essential OF
their possessions. but. like others,
those in the Hango zone had been
unable to leave their goods, and
took with them not only furniture
but pots. pans. pals and even
brooms. perching on top Of the
trucks which bore them. Almost
all the evacuees were old women
and old men.
The people seemed more recon-
ciled TO the treaty today after the
speech of Premier Risto Ryti dis
closing it had been Finland which
1ok the initiative for peace. Par
ticularly. his speech stopped ae-
eusstions that Sweden had put
pressure on Finland to yield.
Know Nazi Plans
Ryti, speaking before parliament
which then ratified the Russo-Fin-
nish treaty by 145 votes 10 three,
said the government realized Ger
many would oppose any allied
troops movement To Finland. and
that thus Finland might nave be-
come the battlefield for a big war.

And "Attuck"
SAGHALIEN ISLAND

Japan protested to Soviet Russia
today against attacks by Russian
border guards on Japanese forces
on the border across Saghalien. off

The protest was lodged with the
Soviet embassy at Tokyo after
Japanese reinforcements. accord
ing to the war office, had repulsed

The war office said Russian
casualties in the clashes had not

Accuse Russians
Russia owns the northern half
and Japan the southern half Of

Domei (J3panese) news agency
said the clashes occurred yesterday
at Karafuto, when Russian guards
crossed the frontier and entered
the Asase district. which is Jap
anese territory. Asase is on the
eastern coast of japanese Sag
halien.
Counter-Attaek Made
The Russians. according to
Domei, fired on japanese police
men, injuring one seriously and
several others slightly. The Jap
anese, after receiving reinforce
ments. attacked the Russians and
drove them back to their own side
of the frontier but. Domei said,
the situation remained tense.
Along the entire Saghalien bor-
der, Domei reported. both Russians
and Japanese were being rein
