ture is also of great economic and social benefit to Alaska. Great airports, long needed, new roads such as the trunk-line con meeting Anchorage with the Rich ardson Highway, are being con- structed. Nearly every commun- ity in Alaska has been, is being or shortly will be, materially aid ed economically by the Federal Treasury. For the National Guard an institution of which the AS states and our other territories have been proud the Federal government has started to send into the Territory additional hun dredS of thousands of dollars yearly for equipment and pay. The one and only collaboration which the Federal government has ever expected of the Terri tory, the first request of Alaska in it's history, was that Alaska build it's own armories as ev- cry state and Territory has done. It is hard to believe that the Legislature, in response to this call for patriotic servica, did not cheerfully do it's small part. But no measure was more savagely fought by the gold and cannery lobby, whose policy, frankly de clared was mot a cent of expen- allure by the Territory for the Territory that We can prevent" To the everlasting credit of the Fifteenth Territorial Legislature let it be recorded that ma jority of both houses favored building the armories and voted the needed appropriation: Five out of eight in the Senate-Walk CT, Roden, Brownell, Nordale, La Boyteaux and ten out of Is in the House - Jenne, Mccormick, Egan, McCutcheon, Lander, Her bert, Gordon, Lyng, Leonard Smith and Stangroom, By the tr achery and deception of sev- eral House members - one of James V. Davis used the Trojan horse device of co-sponsoring the bill in order to defeat 1.-the measure was deliberately stalled, so that it could not reach the Senate until after the 50th day, when, under the rules, two thirds vote was required and three votes out of eight sufficed to kill it.

EDITORIAL BOmbers For Britain
(New York Times)

Over the stormy lanes of the North Atlantic there Is being en- acted one of the greatest dramas of this extraordinary war. From Canadian airports, some of them maritime, some buried in the bush like the huge landplana base at Hattie's Camp, Mild, Am erican bombers are crossing in a steady and successful ferry ser vice an ocean which only a de- cade ago was the most hazardous arena of adventurous long-dis- tancs flight. Hundreds of bomb CTS have reached beleaguered Britain in safety According to the most reliable sources of in- formation, not one has yet been lost. The performance is an out standing tribute to the develop ment of planes, engines, instru- ments and pilots.
 With improving flying weather and increased production of big bombers coming from American plants this ferry service may b expected steadily to increase. It will supply Britain with one of the weapons she most urgently needs.

Work Begins On l45-Mile Alaska Road

A final location survey for the l45-mile Palmer-Richardson high way road is now being made, C. ief Engineer Ike P Taylor of the Alaska Road Commission said recently on his return to Juneau after purchasing equip ment for the big construction projsct and for other commis- sion work in Alaska.
 Construction work in the new highway link, longest to be built in Alaska since the Steese High way, will begin as soon as wea- ther conditions permit. The com mission will try to have the high way open for use by the fall of 1942, Taylor said.
 A $1,0G0,OOO appropriation for the highway was includ- d in 9 deficiency bill signed by the Presi dent April and the money is now available.
 The highway will connect the Anchorage road system east of Palmer with the Richardson Highway system at approximate mile l16 between Copper Cen ter and Gulkana. The new road will be 24 feet wide at the crown of the grade and will be surfac- ed with gravel.
 Work will be carried on from both ends of the highway, under direction of Alaska Road Com- mission District Office Sup -rvis- orS at Valdez and Anchorage. Taylor and Assistant Chief En- gineer Hawley Sterling will be on the scene part of the time.
 Considerable difficulty in ob- taining delivery of necessary equipment is being experienced due to defense demands through out the nation, Taylor said, but some priority on delivery will be afforded the project as it is on the national defense list.
 Equipment operators and other Workm n will be hired at Anchor age and Valdez. Insofar as prac- ticable, the local labor supply will be exhausted before calls gre made for workers from Out side, Tayor said.

FIRST BEAR HUNTERS OF Al ON WAY

KETCHIKAN, April - One of the first big game hunters of the 194l Alaska season, Dr. Elmer Rusten of Minneapolis, doctor on the staff of the University of Minnesota Medical School, and Mrs. Rusten visited here enroute to photograph, study and hunt Kodiak brown bears at Uyak Bay on the north side of Kodiak Island.
 Earl Olmstead of Anchorage will be their outftter and guide. They may fly to the Bering Sea to hunt polar bears, Rusten said. This is the couples fifth spring bear hunt. A year ago they hunt ed for grizzlies and black bear in the Moose River district in British Columbia.
 The main object of this trip said Rusten, is to study the hab- it's and Information characteris- tics of the bear, taking photo graphs and shooting only "on the side"
 The Doctor said Mrs. Rusten is his "aide de camp" and always accompanies him. She does hei share of the shooting. They ex- pect to hunt until May 20.

Minor Amendment
Cincinnati Enquirer)

When Nazi authorities admit, as they have in recent days, that the Royal Air Force is causing damage in Germany, 1t reflects not only the fact that the offens- i've operation of the RAF have been stepped up, but also a note worthy change in German pro- paganda strategy.
 The practic of the German propaganda ministry heretofore has been to minimize to the eX- treme, or deny altogether, any damage which British bombers might be doing in Germany, and meanwhile to expand upon the terrific punishment which the luftwaffe is meting out to Brit ain.
 This was propaganda strategy well calculated to buoy up Ger man morale through the hard ships of a short war, but it was very poorly suited to long war. After so long a time even the most stupid would b.gin to won der how England could still be standing, and would begin to ponder the officially denied dam age to his own country - for, no matter how vigorously bomb damage may be denied by the staff of Joseph Goebbels, it can be seen by the people of the af fected community.

 The Territory is now growing fast (33 1-3 percent since the 1920 census) and this growth brings with it many require ments. The Board of the Budget, composed of two elected officials the Territorial Treasurer, the Territorial Auditor-andt the Gov ernor, found that with the ut host prudence and economy the expenses of the regular Terri torial departments would be $600,000 in exosss of anticipated revenues. It was evident also that many new requirements were not included
 Needs of Territory
 Additional or better school fac ilities are needed almost every where. Vocational education, cut off four years ago with the year ly forfeiture of $30,00 of Federal funds, is sorely needed so that our Alaska youngsters shall not continue to lose opportunities for st ady, gainf ul employment which would be theirs if they were technically trained. The University of Alaska with the largest enrolment in it's history BOT, of whom IF are Freshmen is obliged to turn away Alaskan boys and girls because thers are no accommodations for them.
 In this national defense crisis Congress and the War Depart ment allocated four companias of the National Guard to Alaska. The militia is an institution as old as our United States; it harks back in spirit to the days when the minute men took down pow der horn and masket from over the mantle and went forth to de- fend their liberties. Today every thing that we hold dear, the lib critics for which our ancestors fought and died, are imperiled as never before.

lided with a mule-drawn cart on
Highway II, about two miles north
of the city.
Oldham James,, negro, who was
riding on the cart at the time was
taken to James Walker Memorial

ed satisfactory.
Rochelle received minor bruises
and decorations about the face and
body. He was given treatment at
the hospital and released.
The accident occurred shortly
after 6 o'clock near the railroad
crossing outside the city. State
highway patrolmen, who investi-

chelle as saying that there wasn't
a light on the cart and that he ran
into the real of the wagon. The
cart was practically demolished
and the car was damaged con
