It don't mean that you are
some kind of undesirable citizen
because you take "a look under
the blankets, now and then, to
see what is going on in poll

You will come closer to being
a U.S.A. patriot, and of some
use to your country, if you do
do some prying into what is
going on versus being just a

I have heard that the new
school board does not intend to
renew the contract of w. j.
Shirley.
7, personally, believe that this
district has never had a better
superintendent, or one that
could go out and get things
done as well as MI. Shirley.
I have heard that one of the
reasons that board members
and others are thinking of let
ting him go is that he is OPP
posed to married women teach
ing, especially married women
who have husbands that have
positions with the county and
other good jobs. In my opinion,
it is about time that a man
should get nerve enough to
stand up for and do what he
thinks is right.
Mr.. Shirley should get anoth-
er contract for three years with
an increase in salary. I also be-
lieve that not Mr. Shirley alone,
but other teachers who have
done good work in our schools
the last few years, should have
pay increases.
We in the county appreciate
what Mr.. Shirley has done for
our children, and believe that
the people in Hardin agree with
us. I hope that this letter WI
start a movement to have Mr.
Shirley re-hired.
Yours truly,
A Schoolboy'S Father.

Helena, April 9 - (UP) -
How to answer the questions

sufficient persons sign up for
the course.
The Montana Association of
Commercial Organization Sec
retaries, in cooperation with
Elizabeth Ireland, state superin-
tendent of public instruction,
proposed the course for service
station attendants, hotel clerks,
store employees, and others who
come in contact with tourists.
Purpose of the course was to
enable these persons to answer
tourist questions more accur-
ately and intelligently, and
thus interest the tourists in ad-
vertising Montana in their home
communities.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13. - The House of Representative late yes- terday officially passed the Army Service Extension Bill, it was an- nounced by Speaker Sam Rayburn, after a recapitulation vote showed 203 Representatives favoring the bill and POP against the measure.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13. - One of the duties of the departments of government is to keep the Presi- dent informed. When any vital is- sue arises, the experts go. into high and grind away on statistics and knowledge until they have turned out clear summary and their best conclusions. Often, it is from such memorandums of fact ard probabilities that the policy of the United States is shaped.
 Such a matter of vital i'm portance arose when Germany marched on Russia. The experts went into their huddles and, from authorities on labor, agriculture, economies, political activity, in- dustry and military and naval affairs, went memos to be stacked on the Presidents desk.
 As nearly as I can find out, only one expert, out of all the score or more, even closely approxi- mated the course of the Russian German war so far All the rest said. in effect. that the Nazis would do just what they said they would do. and in record time annihilate the Russian armies and

The Daily Alaska empire., 1941-08-13

WASHINGTON - Reports that Harry Hopkins, Josef Stalin, Win ston Churchill and Franklin Roo- sevelt during the past two weeks have been discussing the idea of a British invasion of the European Continent, have an important in- side background.
 Plans for a British landing force in Holland, Spain or Norway, &C., tually have been discussed ever since Germany invaded Russia on June 21. But all of them, for one reason or another, so far have been rejected.
 Behind these discussions is the obvious fact that Russia has far better chance of standing up against the Nazi war machine if Hitler has to fight on two fronts. So far, part of Hitler's success has been his ability to pick off one country at time, while the others stood around watching.
 Now, everyone is standing around watching Russia. But the British realize that although the Red Army is putting up far stiffer resistance than anticipated, they, the British, are going to be completely out of 11ck if the Russians crumble. That is why the Japanese have moved in such cocksure fashion in the di- rection of Singapore, apparently confident that Russia will be de- feated and that they can bounce on India from one side, Hitler from the other.

Grand Daddy of All Rainfall Gauges 10
 Grace Mount Roberts

The grand daddy" of all rain- fall gauges is going to be installed on Mount Roberts within the next week.
 As a matter of fact, two of these "grand-daddy" rain gauges will be placed on the mountain, one at the. summit and one at the 1,8OO- foot level, according to Ashton R. Codd, Hydrologic Supervisor of the North Pacific Region. who came here from Portland on the Colum- bia last night to supervise the set ting up of the huae gauges.
 Codd, lanky, likeable fellow with a boyish grin, was today enthusias- tic about his job. After he gets through here he will go to Ket- chikan, where two more of the big gauges will be placed on the sum- init and at the 1,800-foot level Of Deer Mountain.
 Had Big Job
 This is Codd's first trip to AL aska, but working on rainfall data furnished by the Weather Bureau office here. he constructed the pre- cipitation measurement devices in Portland and brought them up here in a knocked-down condition.
 It was quite job, too. The gauges are what the weather men refer to as shielded storage pre- cipitation gauge' They were first developed and designed by J. Cecil Alter, Weather Bureau official ir Salt Lake City, and are meant fol use along mountain ridges, where not only rainfall but the moisture from snow must be measured.
 Some 25 of these gauges are al- ready in use around the northwest ern states, Codd said. but when il came to installing the same gauges in Alaska the size of container in

tBY ASSOCIATED PREss)

Germany charges the United States with planning to seize the French island of Martinique in the West Indies as the result of French Chief of State Marshal Pe- tain's newly announced policy of stronger collaboration with the Reich.
 Authorized quarters in Berlin declare bluntly that certain Ameri- can groups, which flor long time have cast covetous eyes on Mar tinique," would use Petain's speech as an excuse to satisfy their lust" for the island.
 In Washington and London, seri- ous repercussions arose over Frances attitude.
 Threat to U. s. Interests
 In Washington, the conviction is freely expressed that Petain's align ment with the Reich held threats to American interests in territories. The State Department is report ed negotiating for air base rights on the hump of Brazil closest to Dakar, French West Africa, for take off base nearest the Americas. In London, authoritative sources said Petain plans to ''subjugate the French people and force upon them the policy they detest." r Break Relations Several congressman today advo- cated breaking off diplomatic rela- tions with the vichy Government and recognizing the Free French regime under Gen. DeGaulle.
 In radio broadcast late yester- day, Petain committed himself tu full collaboration with Germany. The broadcast was just few hours after his Premier, Admiral Jean Darlan, had been given su- preme military power over French forces.
 The aged soldier ranged himself squarely on the side of Germany in the fight against Russia, which he said was defense in the east of civilization"
