MONEY IN ALASKA HONEY

Citizen J. G. Rivers of Fair banks has hit paystreak right in the heart of the city that may be developed to the outermost borders of Alaska. Being an ob- servant and practical man Rivers noticed that Fairbanks is prolific in the season of bloom with flora redolent with sweets.
 Forthwith he sent to California and imported a colony of honey bees. Five hives, brought in by express, landed there early in spring in perfect condition. Re leased from their quarters at his home, the bees found pussy will lows, dandelions, clover, fire flowers and garden flowers in abundance. The result at the close of the season, 275 pounds of as fine honey as any country can boast.
 MT. Rivers now has all the honey he needs for his family for months, and is marketing the greater portion of his take. The Sourdough can have the most delectable of honey fresh from the comb for the price of butter for his hotcakes.
 Long secretary of the Fair banks Chamber of Commerce and enthusiastic believer in the ability of Alaska to produce a portion of the foods she needs. MT. Rivers never performed a more practical demonstration of the fat. What he has done as a hobby during his spare hours countless others in Alaska can do. Following up his demonstra- ton in a commercial way Alaska may win for herself name as one of the worlds leading pro- ducers of honey. There's money, and plenty of it in her flower strewn hills and wales.

The Russian War Picture
Ukroinon Break Through by Nozis
Not Necessarily Turning Point

That is about as far as this crude
comparison can be carried. On the
actual map of Russia, the main
threat is to the vital industries of
the Donets and Don basins, to the
Caucasus, even to the supply route
from Persia, over which the western
lands hope to send the materiel
which Russia needs to replace the
sinews she has lost.
Success Not Certain.
1t Is not fair, however, to assume
at this time that the Germans will
be able to continue the sweep east
ward. If the present action fol-
lows the pattern of the past 80 days
and the Russians continue the same
superb resistance, there are today
many ferocious battles raging far
behind the Germans furthermost
points of penetration. Indeed, the
Russians aver the struggle for Kiev
itself goes on; that the Germans
have lost 10 divisions there.
One cannot even accept as a fact
the German contention that the
four Red armies surrounded east of
Kiev are immobilized; they may
still have the punch for a raging
counterattack that would menace,
perhaps splinter, the German
salient
Winter, too, is very near. For Ger
mans, yet another winter in which
their soldiers will die far away from
the homes to which they are bound
by all the ties of Germanic tradi-
ton. 1t is very significant that the
German high command issued its
first casualty figures only when it
had a cascade of success reports to
cover them up. 1t also is noteworthy
that the high command itself ac-
knowledged. inferentially, that It'd
ings Of far greater casualties had be-
come current in the Fatherland.
Actually, whether they were be-
lieved or not, the figures of some
100000 dead, wounded and missing
German soldiers must have shocked
many German households.

New York City chooses its chief
executive November 4-and there
will be great interest and per-
haps great significance in the
election. Involved in the selec-
tion of a Mayor by the citizens
of New York are issues of good
government, machine politics,
and probably the foreign policy
of the United States. The last
has no business in municipal
election. There are few things,
however, in the United States
today which are not touched by
the war and this Governments
attitude toward it.
The selection of a Mayor of
Greater New York in itself is a
matter of importance-New York
City has a population estimated
at 7,649, ,000-larger than that of
any State in the Union except
Pennsylvania and Illinois. In
this huge mass of human beings
are included people with all kinds
of racial and nationalistic back
grounds.
Mayor La Guardia is the Re-
publican, the American Labor
party and Fusion candidate for
third term, having won the Re-
publican nomination in a primary
last Tuesday. The primary was
remarkable principally because
of the light vote cast-about one
in every seven registered Re-

The Ukranian break through
which the Germans appear to have
accomplished at the close of three
months of warfare, may or may not
be the Red Army's Sedan; it will
take but little time to show
whether the Russians special genius
for resistance can stop and smother
the German columns now reaching
for the Donets and Don Basins, or
whether the defending armies will
scatter like autumn leaves before
the wind, as did the armies of
France.
To get this great military move
ment roughly in American geo.
graphic perspective, one can turn the
map of the United States counter
clockwise until the Pacific Ocean
rests on the bottom, the Atlantic on
top. The active front runs from
Detroit to the Western Nebraska
border.
Thus the Canadian border be-
comes, roughly, the Reich frontier,
Detroit becomes Leningrad, st. Louis
is Moscow.

Now one finds that Omaha (Kiev)
has been stcrmed and entered by
the invader after a two months
siege; moreover, and more impor-
tant, the enemy has broken through
on both sides of Omaha, forcing the
Platte and Missouri Rivers, and is
advancing on a 75-mile front deep
into Kansas, its panzer columns
cropping at Wichita CKharkov).
From here the invading armies
may branch, one plunging on into
the rich States of Oklahoma and
Texas, the other turning to outfiank

industrial Detroit IeningradD is be-
sieged by land and lake. under con-
slant fire of the invaders cannon.
Furthermore. four def nding
armies are said to be trapped and

tween Omaha and the vicinity of

publcans going to the polls to
vote-and in the fact that John
R. Davies, the Republican in
surgent, polled 43,426 votes to
63,246 for Mayor La Guardia. 1t
is true that most New Workers
took it for granted that the
Mayor would win the Republican
nomination and the great bulk
of Republicans did not take the
trouble to go to the polls. Pre-
sumably, most of the anti-La
Guardia Republicans turned out
to vote against the mayor-for
the ants usually vote more
strongly.
Davies Still May Run.
Mr.. Davies sought to inject
into the primary contest the issue
of the foreign policy of President
Roosevelt. He treid to rally to
his standard the isolationiSts and
opponents of Americas full par
ticipation in aid to Britain in the
war against Germany. Now he
is reported to be considering run
ming as an independent candi-
date. District Attorney William
ODWyer of Brooklyn was the un-
opposed choice of the Democratic
organization 1t was presumed
that Mr.. ODwyer was opposed to
the foreign policy of the Presi-
dent and that he was an iso-
lationist at heart. Mr.. Davies
has treid to bring the Brooklyn
man into this struggle. In Mr..
ODwyer's first campaign speech
since the primary, he has pro-
claimed himself a supporter of
the President-although he has
strongly urged that the issue of
foreign affairs of the United
States has no place in local cleo
ton in New York City.
Mayor La Guardia is 100 per
cent in favor of the Presidents
foreign policy. He has been made
head of the home defense effort
by order of the President him
self. There is not the slightest
doubt that the iSolationistS in
this country would take great de-
light in knocking down the
Mayor in the coming contest
and in reading into his defeat a
reputation of the Roosevelt poll
cies toward the war abroad. That
kind of support may go to Mr..
ODwyer without any outward
parade-or it might go to Mr..
Davies, should he run as an in
dependent.
Presidents Action Uncertain.
What the President himself
will do-if anything-in support
of Mayor La Guardia is uncer-
tain. Mr.. O'Dwyer is the nomi-
nee of the regular Democratic
organization of New York City. He
has the backing of Democratic
National Chairman Ed" Flynn,
the party boss of the Bronx. He
is, moreover, an attractive candi-
date, a fighting district attorney
Evening star., 1941-09-20

the Mayor is necessarily a push
over in the coming election. He
has against him the strongest
Democratic candidate he has yet
faced. He has some disgruntled
Republicans and other enemies
he has made during his eight
years in Office, and there is the
undetermined number of op-
ponents of the Presidents foreign
policies who may plunk for his
opponent.
Must Fight to Win.
In 1888, when Mayor La
Guardia first won Office as a
Fusion candidate, he had run
ming against him the then Mayor
O'Brien, a Tammany man, who
had succeeded Jimmy" Walker
when the later was eliminated"
from office after an investigation.
He had also Holy Joe" Mckee,
known as the Recovery party
candidate, backed by Jim" Far
ley, then Democratic National
chairman and New York State
chairman, not to mention Re-
publican and Socialist candidates.
His was a plurality victory then.
The Mayor is expected to win
again, but with the boss of the
Bronx against him, not to men,
ton the whole Democratic Or
ganization in a city that is pre-
dominantly Democratic. it is no
time to let down and go fishing.

Russias continuation in the
present struggle depends largely
on how fast the United States
sends assistance, and on how far
the Axis forces will be able to
exploit their impending victories.
If Hitler's forces are worn out
from the frantic effort they have
been making in the last few
weeks, they are expected to fol-
low up their advantage only half
heartedly. This would give the
Russians time to reorganize their
forces already gathered behind
their second lines and also give
the United States time to send
the needed war material.
But if the Nazis can afford to
throw fresh troops into the battle
before the Red armies have a
chance to reorganize and replace
lost equipment, another grave
problem may face the British and
American governments.
So far. according to available
information IN Washington, the
Germans do not appear to have
moved enough forces to follow up
their expected victories effec-
lively. Nor do the Russians ap-
pear to be demoralized.

Use of radio, sound trucks, post

ganization will be limited to those
eligible youths who without solici-

The communication made no
accusation that either agency had
solicitated or raided the others rolls,
but a source close to the administra-

ceived. This source added that both

This Changing World
Fall of Leninerod and Odessa Expected;
U.S.. Urqed to Rush Aid to Russians

by professional military Observers
who hope that the Russian re-
treat will not be a rout. 1t Is
pointed out in these quarters that
the communication facilities with
the rear are inadequate. The few
existing railroads have been Sc
verely strafed by the LuftWaffe.
So have the so-called highways.
These quarters also hope that the
losses which the defenders have
inflicted on the invaders will be
such as to make it difficult for
the German high command TO
exploit its advantage and deal
death blow to the retreating Rus
slams before effective help can be
received from the United States
and Great Britain.
There is plenty of man power
In Russia But 73 days of con-
tinual fighting have depleted the
Soviet reserves, and the war ma
terial already received from the
United States and Great Britain
is considered a mere drop in the
bucket. During the last two weeks
the British have rushed number
of planes which they had received
for,their own use from the United
States. While the number was
not revealed, it is known that 1t
did not exceed three figures.
Outcome Hinges on Aid.
The British, who have sent their
principal striking force to Egypt
and the Middle East, are urging
Washington to rush everything
available to the main Russian
front. There is no danger of that
front collapsing, according to re-
liable information received here
and in London. There are no
fifth columnists behind the Rus
sian lines. The people are used
to hardshipS and nearly three
months of fighting has made
them more determined than ever
to continue the battle. And OBJ
servers declare there are no poll
ticians in the Kremlin to be
lured by new order" promises.
But all the same, the badly dam
aged Soviet forces cannot be eX-
pected to continue fighting with
out modern equipment.

'McNutt Forbids Solicitation
OF Youth AGENCIES Recruits

Leonard w. Ahern, administrative
consultant in the security agency
said I'VE wanted to be sure that
there was no pressure on our part to
take youths who might be eligible
for work in industry or on the
farms"
When seen by newspapermen, an
N. Y. A. spokesman said the agency
on September l had 276000 youths
employed on its work training pro-
jects, and waiting list of 401 900.
He said he could not see why N Y. A.
would solicit workers when it had
large number of youths awaiting
assignment.
AS for C. C. c.. James J. McIntee,
the corps director said not one
scent piece" ever had been spent by
the C. c. c. to solicit enrollees.
One source said Mr.. McNutt's
order would have the effect, in addi-
tion to banning recruiting and raid
ing, of preventing some youths from
changing from one agency's rolls to
the other when they tire of their
assignments.

new divisions into the battle and
that Hitler had ordered his gen.
erals to take Leningrad and
Kiev regardless of the cost. Both
cities have been practically en-
circled. The fall of the former
capital of the Cars and the chief
city of the Ukraine has been eX-
pected since last Wednesday.
In the South, Odessa, the
Soviet's most important Black
Sea port, is also expected to fall
shortly to the Nazis and their
associates. It has been sur
rounded since the end of August
and Nazi forces have now
reached far beyond its borders
almost to the river Don. The
German high command has
avoided a frontal attack on the
Black Sea citadel only because
1t believed such an attack would
sacrifice too many lives. Further
more. it is believed. that for the
psychological effect 1t would
create in Germany and abroad,
Hitler wanted to bag Leningrad,
Kiev and Odessa at the same
time.
Heavy Blow to Soviets.
The loss of these three most
important cities of the U. S. S.
r. would naturally be a heavy
blow to the Russians. There is
no question that a large Soviet
force faces being trapped. But
according to reports from Mos
COW, Marshals Voroshiloff and
Timoshenko, who had anticipat-
ed the Germans final effort,
have withdrawn their best me-
chanized forces from the threat
ened regions. These reports warn
the American Government that
the large number of prisoners
the Germans are bound to claim
will include the irregulars and
fighting populations of these
cities. According to estimates
from Soviet headquarters not
more than 100000 regulars are
expected to be taken prisoner.
All the artillery which was placed
in defensive positions around the
cities is expected to fall into the
hands of the Germans. But the
bulk of the modern equipment.
including airplanes, has already
been withdrawn.
These optimistic reports are. of
course, taken with a grain of salt

Convinced that the fall Of
Leningrad and Odessa is i'm
minent and with the German
high command claiming the cap
ture of Kiev, official quarters in
Washington have been more
concerned than usual during the
last 48 hours.
Reports from Moscow and
London contain the same warm
ing: if the Soviet armies are ex-
pected to continue their re-
sistance. the United States and
Great Britain must rush large
quantities of war material by
every available means. And this
must be done at once.
Defeat of the armies stub
bornly defending Leningrad and
Kiev has been expected for the

reaching the Capital declare that
the Germans have thrown 80
