 is no disgrace to it. and alien should have the slightest compunction in submitting to it.
 The alien need not fear that the information he gives will be used by the Government to harass him. or will be available to others to annoy him or discriminate against him in any way. The law pro- vdes that the records shall be kept secret and con- fidential Nobody may examine them except with the express permission of the Attorney General of the United States All may rest assured that the Attorney General will see to it that these records will not become available except to those entitled to the information for legitimate needs of national defense and for other proper governmental purposes
 Another point which should be brought home to every alien is that registration is absolutely free No official fee of any kind is involved and money need be paid by the alien to anyone If doubt exists as to whether an individual comes within the pro- visions of the law as for example, whether or not he is citizen, which is often complex and dff1- cult legal question: he should play safe and register If he has any doubt to how to answer some of the questions, he should go to the Post Office and make inquiry He will be furnished with all the help which it is possible to give him, and he cannot pay anything for this advice Already there have been some complaints regarding persons who are attempting to take advantage Of aliens ana who pretend that they can "fx things" to avoid regstra- tion, or make things easier in answering the ques- tions, or eliminate some of them They offer this spurious advice in return for fee. The alien should beware of these 'racketeers."
 Those who are citizens be of great assis- tance in carrying out this phase of the Defense Program Many help their country by helping aliens understand the purpose of the Registration Act and how it's provisions will be carried out They tel hem tO go They can be of particular assistance to those who are not familiar with language, and who may have difficulty in reading and understanding the questions, and above all, they can point out to their alien friends acquantances the necessity for them to register and urge them to do so as soon as they can. There will very likely be large last minute rush when the period ends on December 26
 Above all, citizens can make clear to alien friends that registration is intended by the Govern ment for the protection of aliens as well as for the protection of our country.

Roads for Alaska
Seattle Post-Intelligencer)

Seattle Post-Intelligencer)
 Residents of this region have long thought ot the Alaskan road problem in connection with the pro- posed Alaska International Highway.
 William A. Hesse, Territorial Highway Engineer, has recently proposed highway system which may be regarded as supplemenng the international road project, partial alternative
 Pointing out that most existing roads, totang O44 miles, are not connected with each other, MT Hesse proposes the addition of 1063 miles to consti- ute system, extending from Haines at the south east to Anchorage and Mount Mckinley National Park at the west to Circle at the north and with connections to Whtehorse and Dawson in Yukon Territory.
 The advantages of the Hesse plan, alike to resi- dents of Alaska and the Yukon and the prospective tourists are obvious It would enable visitor to take car from Seattle by boat and tour through much of the Arctic interior something of the coastal terrain make side trips to the old klondlke and return comfortably by ship from Haines A considerable part of the mileage would fit into the international Highway project.

ALIENS ANSWER CALL

The alien registration program, required by a recent act of Congress is being carried out here in the rest of the nation smoothly and quietly Hun dreds of aliens living in Juneau have registered at the Postoffce room provided for that purpose. Pre- sumaby there are hundreds of others who have not yet registered either because they do not understand the provisions of the act because they think that there is plenty of time before the closing of regis tration.
 Registration is compulsory Every alien must register. The law provides penalty in the form of a fine and imprisonment for failure to register, well for refusal to be fngerprinted intentionally giving false information and failing to report chang es of address.
 Registration consists of answering certain ques- tions, such name, address, place of birth date and place of entry into this country. and occupation Each alien is asked how long he intends to remain in this country and whether he has had any mill tary service either here or abroad. He is required to list his activities and to any organizations of which he is member or in which he partici- pates and to whether they further the inter- ests or program of foreign government ''i=i'e a
 Congress has placed upon the Department oi Justice and the Postoffice Department the duty of carrying out the provisions of this Act and these two departments working in close cooperation in order that this huge task may be carried out smooth ly, efficiently and with little disturbance in the lives of alien population possible.
 About fingerprinting, everyone should understand that there is stigma of any kind attached to it Hundreds of thousands of persons have had their fngerprints taken and recorded for Identification purposes The day has passed in this country when a fingerprint file is regarded in any sense as a "Rogues Gallery" It is simply modern means of Identification It is the most accurate way to keep records straight and to identify them. Names may .,;r, may be forged; but two sets of fngerprints have ever matched In the last war every man who served in the Army, the Navy and the Marine Corps was fingerprinted. Thousands of people voluntarily

struggle preceded the publication of that joint statement by Is outstand- ing citizens assailing Herbert Hoov- CTS plan to feed NaZi-conquered Europe. The ex-President made a terrific effort to squeich it.
 The statement was initiated by Dr. Henry Sloane Coffin, president of Union Theological Seminary, to counter Hoover's efforts to line up influential clergym for his scheme-a scheme which he is push ing without the approval of either the U. s. or British governments.
 The statement was distributed in advance for publication in Sunday morning papers. and Hoover, in some way, got wind of it. Where upon he literally moved heaven and earth to stop it.
 He first bombarded the Is Signers by telephone and telegram to get them to withdraw their names When this failed he contacted sev- eral newspapers and press associa- tions with protests against the declaration.
 One New York morning paper called up Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt l a signer. and said they had beer uniformed her name was unauthor- I ized. Mrs. Catt indignantly denied 1 this
 | Dr. James B. Conant, Presiden of Harvard University, received similar inquiry, which he repudiat' ed. In one way or another every one of the IS signers had his nam' challenged and all stood firm Dr Coffin was so aroused by these tao tics that he sent Hoover sizzlin. letter which concluded as follows:
 While you say in your telegram
 that your proposal is 'conditiona

GERMAN OCCUPATION

Intelligence reports from Europe indicate that it is not the German army but civilians in France who are causing trouble. These reports state that the Nazis already have begun to create their vaunted uni fication of Europe and their reduc- ton of France to mere agricul- tural state.
 Following the conquering Nazi armies, there came German civil ians in numbers almost as great They settled down in evacuated French homes and began to oper- ate abandoned French shops and factories and to take over others which had not been abandoned. Al this in the vital industrial area ot north France.
 Reports about the conduct oi Germans in France make sharr distinction between the German military and civilian elements. Lit. tie complaint was heard of tn, conduct of the German military but when the Gestapo and tn, Brown Shirts followed, together with civilian groups for the man agement of industry, real friction developed.
 British victory over German, would require not only success il staving off invasion but also drivin the Germans out of the Low Coun tries and France-and this mean not only the German soldiers, bu the hcrdes of civilians who hay taken over management of Frencl 1 industry as if it were their own.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER ?

This is one of the rarely fortu- nate days in planetary direction. It is suspicious for pushing what. ever is important in business or politics. Minds should be clear and judgment trustworthy.
 Heart and Home: Women are under the most stimulating and promising influences while this configuration prevails. It is a happy wedding date and encourages romance among young and old. The stars smile upon actresses, sing CTS and all who seek to entertain the public It is favorable rule for shopping. Winter clothing that is practical and durable should be selected this autumn as unusual exigencies are preSaged.
 Business Affairs: Architects and art dealers are well directed today Despite threatening war conditions there will be an impulse to enjoy the best in a crumbling civiliza- ton. Persons who possess wealth will be inclined to spend it lavish ly as taxes mount. Purveyors of foodstuffs will profit. This is a fortunate day for starting pleasure trips.
 National Issues: Youth move- ments will command much atten- ton and will have strong effect upon the results of the national election. Radical agencies will gain ascendancy over certain organiza- tions and continue to influence ob- struction of preparedness measures. Sensational revelations just before the election date will turn many votes, even though certain exposes are deliberately misleading. Straight thinking and fearless voting art imperative.
 International Affairs: Although in the future dictators will dis agree, a united combat to destroy democracy will continue for an in- definite period, if the stars are wisely read. There is a configura- ton fortunate for the British Navy which is to prove it's splendid pos abilities and to win some sort oi support from the United State. more helpful than any previously given.
 Persons whose birthday 1t i: have the augury of year of ex- periments that include marriage It is we'll to look after the family fortunes.
 Children born on this day prob. ably will be exceptional in intel lectual capacity. They may have scientific interests and artistic tai, ents.
