FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Jan. B. After registering over 900 men under the Selective Service Act yesterday, the Fairbanks Board ran out of registration blanks with about 300 more applicants to enroll.
 The board then took the names and addresses of the remaining ap- plicants and told them to return as soon as supplies were received.
 Chairman of the Board E. B. Col lins has wired Selective Service Di- rector Anthony E. Karnes at Juneau for more supplies.
 Nenana also ran short of supplies early in the day.
 Some applicants were put to much inconvenience on account of long trips by airplane at considerable cost in time and money to reach registra- tion places.

Gcod Will


 Schcttler said the merchants of Juneau reaped a great deal of good will in Interior Alaska through their being represented at the Carnival. The matter of financing Miss Ju- neau" could be worked out, he said he was sure.
 Others urging that a queen be sent again this year were R. J. SommerS, Charles Beale and Joseph Flakne. Sommers said one trouble with AL aska was that the various commun- ities didn't see enough of one an- ether Beale said everyone should realize the value of advertising and that good will such as is created by Juneau's participation is thing which cannot be meaured in dollars
 Expense Considered
 Keith Wildes said expense was the only objection to sending a girl this year Last year it cost about S200 of which a show at the Capitol Theatre raised $50 and the balance was paid by the Chamber. No pro- visicn has been made in the 1941 budget for this item.
 Eeale said he would be glad to stage another show to raise part of the fund
 Harry Watson of Fairbanks, visit ing the meeting, said Southeast AL askans probably don't realize the importance of the Ice Carnival to the people of the Interior or the ma gnitude of the defense work which is being done in Alaska.
 Economy Move
 Charles w. Carter said the Board yesterday was influenced somewhat by recent urgings of the Alaska Miners Association that economy be the watchword and that the Chamber was putting this advice into effect in this matter.
 The Chamber Board yesterday decided to cancel its service in pro- viding free telephone at the Upper City Float.
 Carter reported for a committee which has been considering pro- posed health and welfare legisla- tion, saying the committee asked for one more week to consider the matters, as it was in general ]n favor of the spirit of the bills but couldn't pass on their form.
 Other visitors at today's meet ing included Rep. Amer J. Peter sen Of Anchorage, Carl Swanson and Knute Thompson of Peters burg. Dr. James c. Ryan and Bud Whiteside.

Hoover, Dewey
Warn Congress

NEW YORK, Jan. 11.-GNS)-
Two key Republicans-Herber'
Hoover and Thomas f. Dewey
today cautioned Congress against
surrendering its powers while con,
siderinp legislation for "all-out'
aid To Britain.
This BILL" Dewey declared,
sis an attempt to abolish free
government. In short. this bill
empowers the President to COM
nit actions of war without the
approval of Congress, in any
conflict. present or future, any
where In the world"
Former President Hoover said:
1--WE all wish our industry
tuned up to maximum output
for our defense and TO aid other
countries to defend their indie
pendence. But the practical sur
7 render of power TO take these
steps IL something else. IL en-
tiers the field OF preservation of
democracy in this country"
Verne Marshall chairman of the

Mr.. William X. Hearst,
San Simeon. Calf.
Dear Mr.. Hearst:
THIS Is written TO express to you
i my congratulations and my
grateful appreciation of your col
umn In the Examiner of December
9th with respect to the use by the
picture industry of a wire to throw
horses.
Your article Is a powerful rein
forcement of the campaign of ami
NAL lovers on this subject which
has been under way for some time
but has not as yet been completely
successful. IL
1 hope you will find occasion to
return to the subject from time to
time; otherwise the whole matter
will be forgotten and ignored by
the producers.
I am not at all sure that the
Hays office will function effec-
lively or at all. as your article
seems to think possible.
About a year ago, after some
specially rank instance of cruelty
of this sort, number of us signed
petitions to that office, which were
$ v m p a h etically acknowledged
with promises of continued efforts
at reform.
Yet 1t is a fact that only a short
while ago. in a current film called
Mounted Police featur-
Ing Gary Cooper, horse was
thrown in a complete sOmersault
down a steep bank in a manner
that could not fail either TO pro-
duce or risk serious injury.
/ am sure there Is no demand on
the part of the public for this sort
of thing, or If there are such mo-
rons that II Is not the indispen-
sable price of their attendance.
The fault seems To be with the
directors of such films, who either
find a personal satisfaction in cru
city or entertain some false idea
that II Is a necessary thing In the
attainment of realism.
Very truly yours,
II. VI. WRIGHT.

BRITISH LAUD BILL

LONDON, Jan. 11.-QNS)-
British newspapers published vol
luminous details today on the bill
placed before Congress to give
President Roosevelt authority TO
transfer war equipment to foreign
nations in the interests of United
States defense.
Most of the papers emphasized
provisions in the measure which
would permit British warships TO
make use OF American naval
yards.
Typical of the editorials was enc
in the London Daily Telegraph,
which stated;
There can be no doubt about
Americas resolve TO PLAY her
part In real earnest as the ar
senal of the democracies.
1.-THE UNMATCHED industrial po-
tentialities OF ne United States
may well prove the deciding
factor In the conflict between
Hitlerism and free democracy.
-ot big battalions but hum
ming factories and work shops
are the ultimate Instruments of
victory In warfare today. Amer
lea has an opportunity to prove
that machine tools may be more
potent than the bomb"
