BIS or ALA5kA'S NURSES REGISTER
 ON DEFENSE !:! [: LIST
Territoria! Director Miss 0ygard Urges Others
 to Sign Up

Alaska nurses, active or inactive, are again reminded of the nation wide survey of registered nurses 1 which is being conducted by the I United States Public Health Serv- lice as one of the national defense measures.
 Miss Magnhild Oygard, Special Agent of the United States Public Health Service, Juneau, who is di- recting the survey in Alaska, re- gently stated that study of the returns of the questionnaires re- ceived from the nurses indicated that the Alaska nurses not only can help but are most willing to serve in the defense program. How ever, she states there are few nurses who have still failed to complete and return the question: naires to Juneau headquarters.
 To date. approximately 500 ques- tionnaires have been sent out to the nurses in the Territory, and only about 315 have been; returned to headquarters. It has been found that duplication is very apt to take place, as many States have taken names from the registry in then own State, and sent questionnaires to nurses now residing in Alaska. Also, there are changes of ad- dresses and names after marriage Any nurse Who receives more than one questionnaire should return one questionnaire to Juneau headquar- ters or give it to a nurse who has not received one.
 Asr Notify Headquarters
 Nurses who have already sent in questionnaires and. who in the fu- ture may change place of address, should notify Juneau headquarters Of the change Many who returned questionnaires assumed that the in ventory headquarters is a placement bureau This is not true. The pur- pose of the Inventory is to secure 
 record of available nudse power for emergency purposes, Miss Oy- gard said. Nurses who are seeking employment may do so through the regular channels, such as nurs- ing associations and hospitals.
 The Alaska Director of the sur- vey again wishes to remind all regishereds nurses to fin in their original State and date of registra- - tion, to return their completed ques- tionnaires Immediately, to notify her of needed questionnaires and to remind married nurses to send for questionnaires if they have not received theirs Our country may need their services to replace younger nurses who leave for the Army and Navy, she said. This na- tional defense survey in Alaska will only be as complete as active and nonactive nurses make it. The re- sponsibility rests with the nurse and the nurse alone, according tol Miss Oygard

 AGENCIES CREATED
President, by Executive Order, Designdtes Two
 General Divisions

WASHINGTON, May 20-Presi- dent Roosevelt today established by Executive Order the Office of Civil ian Defense headed by New York's Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia.

WASHINGTON, May 20 = An- swering the mail queries:
 Mrs. w. M. N., Flint, Mich.-The chances of a trainee with ability and ambition becoming an officer are excellent. For example, at ten camps in July, officer training schools will be started, with an initial quota of 2,300 men, and those who survive will be commits stoned second lieutenants about three months later Every one Of these will be selected from tn e ranks of Regulars, National Guardsmen, and trainees by their unit commanders. The only requi- site other than ability is that they must have had six months in train ing and be able to serve at least three after their commission.
 T. D., Fairfield, IlI.-Roughly, de- fense hiring in Washington is going at the rate of 1000 week. Most officials here think that it will be midsummer before there will be any slackening off, but that will depend entirely on world develop ments. Washington is supposed to have increased it's population 10 percent in the last year and now said to be the tenth city in the country, with well over 725,0O0O
 L. R., Fort Wayne, Ind. - The reason the House of Representa- tives doesn't argue as long over bills as the Senate is that debate in the House is, by rule, limited to one hour.

NazisAdmit Sinking of
 5hipzanlzanl
Egyptian Vessel Is Sent 10 Bottom by Raider 77AII
 Passengers, Grew Safe

BERLIN, May 20-The 8,200-ton Egyptian passenger liner Fam Fam has been sunk by the German Navy, presumably by surface raider, and the 322 members of the crew and passenger rosters, including 138 Americans, are safe in German occupied territory.
 Authorized German sources re- ported the sinking which seeming ly occurred many days ago. but the Nazis did not say when nor where. The Fam Fam, on trip in the South Atlantic sea lane, was followed by a German raider and sunk near the nearest Ger man -held territory. Passengers were transferred to a German craft.
 The Fam Fam left Recife, Bra gil, for Capetown on April g, ex- pecting a 14-day crossing.
 France, it appears, is the likeli- est territory for landing the pas- sengers and crew, and it is pre- stunned that the passengers and crew were taken there by vic- torious raider or auxiliary.
 A Nazi spokesman said: "The vessel was destroyed with the most exacting regard ito all internation~ al agreements The ship carried contraband intended for the enemy. German naval units observed every regulation in meeting the situation, and the action might be called a perfect example of war at sea on commerce and was carried out ac- cording to regulations
 Among the American passengers were 24 ambulance drivers, Pro- testant and Catholic missionaries enroute for their posts in South Africa.

 AS NEW zEALANDERS
British Quickly Take Ae- tion-Situdfion Report
 ed We'll in Hand

LONDON, May 20.-British Prime Minister winston Churchill an- nounced today in the House of Con- mons that 1,50O German troops dis guised in the battle dress of New zealanders, have landed by gliders. parachutes and aircraft troop car- riers on the Island of Crete but the military situation was well in hand.
 The statement followed one which stunned the House and told of the German parachute invasion of the British -held island garrison.
 In later review of the situation. he said the military hospital be- tween Canea, the Cretian capital, and Dilemi, had been captured by parachutists but was recaptured.
 Stin Fighting
 A strong attacking group on the Canea- -Dilemi road is not yet mop ped up. Churchill said, but other parties have been accounted for.
 The Germans flew approximately 100 miles from the Greek mainland in great strength to invade the big island of Crete, the last Greek ter ritory held by Anglo-Greek Allies and one which Churchill has declar- ed will be defended to the death.
 Crete is held by New Zealand, British and Greek troops under the command of the New zealander, Major General Freyburg. The Ger mans preceded the invasion by an intense aerial bombardment of Sudabay, Crete naval base, and var ious airdromes on the island. The island is the seat of King Georges Greek government.
 Rehearsal for England
 The British evaluated the sudden invasion not only as an Axis att tempt to gain stepping stone to the passage near the East mainland. but also as possible dress rehearsal of the air-borne invasion of the British Isles.
 The successful invasion of Crete might have been followed by sim liar attack on British Cyprus which lies off the Syrian coast. Thus the Germans might have cleared the Mediterranean Sea lane to Syria and completed the encirclement of Tur- key which is already hemmed in on the West by the Axis occupied islands in the Aegean Sea.
