Gen. Sir Claude AuchinIeck
By JACK sTINNETT

WASHINGTON, July 14-In the next six months, you are going to hear a lot about "the second line of defense workers"--the woman power of the nation.
 Over in the women's bureau of the Department of Labor things are humming and almost any journalistic war horse can smell the smoke of battle. The first guns have been fired. The objective-to get that second line of defense workers" trained and ready to step into the labor market and fill gaps caused by .rapidly expand- ing industry.
 The ink isn't dry yet on re- port on the possibilities for wo- men factory workers in aircraft production. The survey was made by Miss Ethel Erickson, industrial supervisor oS the bureau, and her staff The labor ladies went from the stcrcrccm where raw mate rials are received to the ramp where assembled planes were be- ing revved up for the test pilots.

Governor Draws Capsule from Breddbox in
 Ceremony Here

Eight hundred and seventeen (817) was the first number drawn in the Territory of Alaska selective service lottery, held today in Juneau.
 Holder of serial No. BIT is Morris Raymond Berg, who is assigned order No. for Juneau and will be the first called by the Local Board for questioning and possible service. The first number was drawn by Gov. Ernest Gruening at 1l:2y o'clock this morning in a ceremony in the Governors office arranged by Alaska Selective Service Director John Mccormick and attended by Territorial and Federal officials, former service men and a battery of reporters and photographers.
 Wearing heavy black cloth blind- fold, the Governor drew a capsule and handed it to Secretary of AL aska E. L. (Bob) Bartlett, who ex- tracted the number and announc- ed it.
 Ceremonial Drawing
 Other numbers were drawn by Bartlett, Judge George F. Alexander, Attorney General Henry Roden, Mayor Harry I. Lucas, Department Commander Walter B. King of the American Legion and Frank Met calf, Commander of Afford John Bradford Post of the American Le- zion, Juneau.
 Numbers were drawn from a bright, new, red-and-white kitchen breadbox. The numbers, from to 2,000, were enclosed in opaque cap- sules furnished by Selective Service headquarters in Washington. Di- rector Mccormick stirred the cap- sules around with a wooden kitchen spoon before each was drawn.
 After the ceremonial drawing in the Governors office, the lottery equipment was moved into the office of the Secretary of Alaska, where Selective Service staff members here were to continue drawing numbers this afternoon until all 2,O0O had

Alaska Discovered 200 Years Ago; Boring Day Designated
 BY Proclamation of Governor

Gov. Ernest Gruening has issued a proclamation calling attention to the fact that this week marks the 2OOth anniversary of the discovery of AL aska. Vitus Bering Day is designated tomorrow, but the Governor, in view of today's national emergency, and the necessity of continuing work without interruption, does not deem it advisable to proclaim July IS a public holiday but suggests Alaskans recognize the day in whatever man. ner seems appropriate and to display the American Flag and the Alaska Flag.
 The complete proclamation, issued by Gov Gruening, is as follows:
 This week will mark the two hum dredth anniversary of the discovery of Alaska. The event is of sufficient historic importance to be noted and of too great significance in the an- nals of courage and daring to pass
 
 unrecognized.
 Tn TAI, after sixteen years of preparation, two ships, the St. Peter and St. Paul, under command of Vitus Boring, a Dane in the service of Russia set sail from Petropav- lovsk, Kamchetka. Dhe exploration had been authorized by Peter the Great; after his death his purpose was fulfilled by his widow, the Tzarina, Catherine.
 At that time, the beginning of the fifth decade of the eighteenth century, the maps of the world were blank as to the northwest coast of America The range of exploration had extended northward along the coast only to Puget Sound. Boring was dispatched to find out whether there lay between Asia and America supposed land which had been called Juan de Gama Land, or whether the first mainland which he would encounter would be part of the American continent.
 Shore Party Landed
 "On June 20 the two vessels lost sight of each other in the fog and never again rejoined. On July IS. the St. Paul, under command of Captain Alexel Chirikov sighted land -presumably Moves Island and then sailed northward along Baranof and Kruzoff islands exploring the west coast. It was not until July 18 that landing was attempted near Cape

Port of Kobe Is Closed 10 Foreigners for Ten Days
 Beginning tuesday
IMPRESSION GIVEN
 REGARDING CONFLICT
Military Observers Believe Warfare Looms in
 French Indo-Chin

SHANGHAI, July 14-The Jap- anese port of Kobe has been closed to foreigners for a 10-day period starting tomorrow, according to au- thentic reports received here.
 The closing of the port is amid an apparently Japanese sponsored propaganda campaign to create the impression that Japanese attack against the Russians in Siberia is imminent. " z Y ? ST
 Most of the foreign military quar- ters here however are inclined to the belief that the Japanese are indulging in war nerves as far as Russia is concerned. The military quarters are still convinced that the next Japanese move will be against French Indo-China, which is the object of the tirade by all Japanese newspapers.
 The tension in Saignon, French Indo- China. is apparent, and dis patches from there declare this tension is growing because of fail- ure of the French Indo-China Gov ernment to agree to certain trade agreements.
 Military observers assert how ever, that if Russia collapses under German blows, Japan might risk attacking the powerful Red Army in Siberia, estimated to be about 39 Divisions.

WASHINGTON - If Mayor La Guardia runs short of ideas on how to keep the Office of Civilian De- fense going at top speed, he can get some pointers from his chief in the White House.
 Keenly interested in enabling ev- cry man. woman and child to play a part" no matter how small, in the defense program, Roosevelt feels that the big flaw so far has been that the average person has not been made to feel" that he can contribute something.
 Discussing this with Defense ad- visers the other day, the President remarked that one of the best ways to stimulate civilian participation in preparedness was the organization of movements such as Bundles for Britain"
 Bundles for Britain was an excel lent idea," he said, because it made people realize that in helping the British they were also making 8 contribution to our own defense. But it is only a start. Other movements of similar nature should be en- couraged. Why not Binoculars for Britain, also?"
 To illustrate his point, the Presi- dent related how in the World War. when he was Assistant Secretary of Navy, it was announced that the Navy needed more binoculars than American factories were producing. In a few weeks thousands of binoc- ulars poured in from patriotic don-

NO HER0ESA
 WAIVED TO BE
 IN ARMY FILMS
By RICHARD F. NEWCOMB AP Feature Service

FORT MONMOUTH, N. J. Oct. The Signar Corps is mapping a motion picture production schedule equal to 100 Hollywood features in a year, but doesn't give a hoot for handsome hero.
 Object is to educate the thou sands of troops now under arms and, since spy melodramas are not in the curriculum, there'll be no elamorizing of a beauteous blonde, either.
 In 1887 there were two Army men and civilian employee on the Signal Corps movie staff. To- day these are 23 officers, 200 sol diers and 56 civilian employees, nearly all prominent in civilian films prior to their call to service.
 Films Are Educational
 Production goal is Is reels a month before November. That's equal to double feature at the neighborhood theater.
 Planned or already building at Fort Monmouth are shops for the special effects men, another film laboratory, a sound stage, a fire proof film storehouse and an ad- ministration building.
 It. Col. Melvin E. Gillette, di- rector of the plant, declares that an efficiently produced movie can teach a soldier as much in 10 min- utes as a half-hour lecture.
 Ten mobile training film crews and seven spot news crews are collecting sounds and sights to be shaped into films at Fort Mon mouth. In actual warfare, the training film units would not go into danger zones, leaving that to two companies being schooled at Fort Benning, Ga, and Camp Jo- seph T. Robinson, Ark.
 Colonel Gillette had to re-train Hollywood's experts. Ninety per cent of the scenario writing is done by former Hollywood writers. train ] ed to think in terms of drama and suspense.
 All Star Cast Among those working for Uncle Sam are Capt. L. Gordon Rigby, who has written and produced movies for g years; Private Gar son Kanin. 28-year-old director of the current rom, Dick and Har- ry''; Private Douglas Kennedy, who as Keith Douglas had just taken the lead in Road from Singapore" when the Army beckoned; Private Joseph A. Thompson, nephew of Kathleen Norris and former Fred Waring script writer, and Private Granville Owens, "Li'l Abner" of the movies.
 Others are Sergeant Robert B. Churchill, an M-G-M writer; Pri- vate Jaro Fabry, whose magazine cartoons are enjoyed by thousands, and Private Jason H. Bernie, son of the orchestra leader.

TIIT!NG OF BEDS
 TETS HEADACHES
By HOWARD w. BLAKESLEE Associated Press Science Editor

ROCHESTER, Mlnn. Feb. L. The Mayo Clinic is looking over morning headaches from a new point of view
 It is seeking to determine whether they can be avoided by tilting the bed so that the head is about foot and half higher than the feet Doctors E. V. Allen and A. R. Mac Lean discuss in the Clinics Proceed ing a woman who had headaches for 21 years. They occurred at intervals and finally were diagnosed as mi grane.
 Then an abrupt change occurred. She woke up with headache almost every morning The change came along with high blood pressure, and apparently was related to it in some way.
 The tilting treatment was tried. On only two days did she wake with a headache and then it was mild. When the bed was not raised, the headache returned.
 The two physicians will continue their research.
