Offices in Arlington Cemetery

Federal workers in Washing ton are knocking elbows while at thier toll, and to remedy that con dition, it has been proposed to erect, on a plot forming part of the Arlington National Cemetery the largest office building in the world. Many look askance at a proposal which comprises reduc ing the acreage allotted to the loyal dead, especially when there is ample room for office buildings elsewhere. The country at large is not deeply concerned in the location of Washington build ing considered as such, yet the project is mentioned in this col umn because it has a broader significance. Nothing should be done, under the press of present circumstance, which all would de sire to have undone in the sun light of a better and less tenn pestucus day.

Current Comments From Washington

The House has voted 10 sus- tain the Presidents veto of a bill calling for highway outlay of 320 million dollars, and the com ment of nationally known daily is that the House did a good days work" About three months ago, the President asked for 125 million, for spending in the con- struction of strategic defense highways, to be built where need ed, and without regard to the local benefit The sum was raised to 320 million. after a good deal of bargaining between the Sen- ate and the House The bill was made to provide, also that the money should be spread out among the States. The defense feature became subservient to seeing to it that "a good time was had by all" as to road build ing. Maybe the House vote was right.

JAPANESE UNDER DISCRIMINATION

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. - An official of the National Bureau of Casualty Insurance Companies said yesterday that insurance on trucks owned by Orientals in Cal ifornia was cancelled for fear the vehicles might be damaged by anti-Japanese demonstrations. All insurance on the trucks was canoe led at the height of the fruit and vegetable harvest sea sen. Hundreds of trucks owned by Japanese truck farms and pro duce dealers are in operation.
 Signs reading No Japanese Help Wanted" apeared at many large orchards and farms where they had hired Japanese workers in past years.
 Many of the California Japan csc are American citizens, but they suffer the same discrimina- ton of the aliens.

The Gasoline Situation

Secretary Ickes' expressed de- sire to have an abundance of liq- uid fuel on hand, and to curtail the driving of automobiles, rais- ed some grumbling in the motor ist party, but no violent opposi- tion; no doubt because the lid was not clamped on too hard at the start. Where the gasoline cur few is in effect, sales are said to run about as usual. Generally stated, no one expects to be able 10 buy a load of coal after dark, and governs himself according ly. In the night closing of gas stations does defense any good, let it go. It does not seem to be doing the car driver any harm.

Draft Extension Bill

As was expected the twenty four month draft limit failed to receive the approval of the Sen ate. The upper body increased the period of service to two and one ha'f years, with prospec- tive pay raise of ten dollars per month, a thirty dollar per month amendment being turned down. The measure will go to the House fer debate and action. The Seante vote indicated a growing tendancy in Congress to abide by Presidential suggestions in the matter of defense. Although the House undoubtedly will fall in line regarding the leadership of the Chief Executive, the vote there will be closer, it is pre- dicted. Te War Department pro- bably would have been better pleased With a bill calling for an indefinite extension, but had to be contented with the best it could get. That bureau had, at least, the satisfaction of seeing the removal of the nine million limitation as 10 the number of selectees who can be held in ser vice.

Fashions of War

The fashions of war change, like the fashions in clothing. AS to the fighters of our grandfa- ther's day, the volunteers looked down upon those who came in under the draft, and both gave the cold shoulder to the soldier whose patriotism had been stim- u ated by pay as substitute. Now, the rank and file of the army is just one big family, all members of which can lay claim
 to the same degree of respectab- ility: though to say that it is one big and entirely happy family

ALASKA SIBERIA DEFENSE FACTOR

With American, British and Russian representatives going into conference at Moscow with plans for mutual assistance to re- sist Axis aggressions, nothing is more timely than the suggestion coming from Delegate Dimond at Washington that America ac- quire certain strategic positions in Siberia, opposite Alaska - particularly in the Boring Sea area.
 If Russia is not willing to cede the Komandorski Islands, as suggested by MT Dimond, she at least can agree to American oc- cupation = should the exigency demand = of strategic points along the Siberian coast and h. terior Siberia facing the North Pacific and Boring Sea and the Arctic seas, where all-out coop eration should make the situa- ton impregnable.
 Britain readily granted defense positions in her possessions in the Atlantic and Canada 10 the States, under plan of reciprocal rights and favors looking to de- fense of common interests. Rus sia, in her present stress, should see the advantage to her of do- ing as much in her Asiatic pos session, and particularly those facing the north Pacific and Arc tic seaboards.
 There's no reason why Amer ica and Russia should not con- tinue their age-old friendly rela- tions and particularly in this crisis when the two countries are faced by aggressors whose ambitions for conquest know no limit.
 It may not be long until Ameri can aid to Russia will be routed through Alaska and Siberia, par ticularly over the land route lead ing from the heart of the two continents. The route is natural one. All that is needed to get it functioning is an understanding and completion of proper facil- ities on both sides-across Al aska and Siberia.
 Northeastern Siberia and Alas ka at the top of the arch be- tween the hemispheres for the keystone combination that by proper cooperation should be the permanent impregnable buffer region between the Occident and the Orient
 Let this region be properly de tended - and the arrangements entered into with all sincerity & with proper safeguards while the countries interested are in the mood for trading.
 If ever there was a time to make a deal for the protection of the continent and particularly of Alaska = against old world menaces through the back-door route-is right now. Strike while the iron is hot.

CUNTS MAY LIVE ! WITH PARENTS

TORONTO, Canada, Aug. - Toronto officials indicated that the famous Dionne quintuplets will soon go to live with their brothers and sisters. The Honor able Harry Nixon, Ontario Educa tion Minister, said that he thinks such a step would enable the T. year-old quintuplets to live nor maj lives.
