THE WASHINGTON MERRY-GO-ROUND
By Drew Pearson and Robert s. Allen

{ IlVDSll .. AlISA
 WASHINGTON = Army and Navy strategists who stay up late studying the defense of the U. s. A. consider only one part of the country in actual danger of Axis invasion in the near future.
 They have some definite ideas about the Panama Canal, Texas and the Southwest if the Nazis ever get across from the bulge of Africa to the bulge of Brazil. But for the time being, with Nazi armies encroaching on Russia, and with Japan becoming more and more belligerent, they say the only real danger spot is Al aska-separated by only 25 miles of Boring Sea from the mainland of Siberia.
 In view of this, it is interest ing to dig into the musty archiv es of the State Department re- garding the manner in which AL aska was acquired from Russia.
 The purchase took place short ly after the war between the States, when the Czar was occu- pied in trying to get an outlet through the Bosphorus, which risked war with England. So he was afraid England might take Alaska. Also Alaska was valu- able chiefly for seal and sea ot- ter furs to beautify the ladies in waiting, and the Alaska fur crop was getting low.
 Simultaneously, Charles Sew ard, Secretary of States in 1867, was anxious to extend the new American empire both north and south and had suggested the Alaskan purhaSe to the Russian ambassador in Washington. The Czar, in reply. told his ambaSsa dor, confdentially to sell for five million dollars. But the Am,bas- sador, thinking there woud be some bargaining, sent a message 10 Secretary Seward one night and told him his government would sell Alaska for $7,000,000. He said he would come to the State Dpartment to discuss the deal in the morning.
 Blu Seward summoned him to the State Department that night. In fact he was so anxious to get A aska that he sent carriages out for State Department clerks, and kept the lights burning in the De p2rtment until about 1 am. when the treaty for the purchase final ly was signed. The price was $7,20O,C0O - exactly $2,2O0,0OO more than the price proposed by the Car. The extra $20O,O0O was thrown in to purchase a Russian development operating there.
 After the treaty was signed, Congress rebelled agains ratify- ing it, claimed it was an area of rocks and ice. So Seward sent a slush fund of $3OO,OO0 to Cap itol Hill, of which $10,0O0 was paid to Thaddeus Stevens, fam ous crusader for freedom of the slaves and author of the Four teenth Amendment.
 Later the Russian Ambassador asked him to relieve him from duty in such a center of corrup- ton.

NaZi Owners

Subsequent investigation re- yea ed that all the stockholders of this company were Germans; also that the two top officers were Spaniards, one a naturaliz ed Mexican and the other nat uralized American citizen.
 Now every movement of the yacht is watched, but there is no thing the United States can do about the ship unless she en- ters American waters. So far the vessel has been very careful to stay within Mexican territorial waters.
 Before the U. s. authorities un- covered the Nazi ownership of the yacht and the nature of it's operations, however, it made 3 trips to Cuba. It also docked sev- eral times at Panama. The crew of the vessel from the captain down, are Spaniards recently brought from Spain expressly for this purpose.
 NOTE-The yacht is one of sev eral to which deposed pro-Nazi President Arias gave Panaman- ian registry.

his superiors and summoned Met

glad to stay with him and clear
up the matter. Taken to No. I

Smoke
Continued From First Page)

odor of burning paint, leaves and
wood.
Commercial airliners were al
lowed to continue in the air, but
were ordered to stick to instrument
flying because of the poor visibility.
Local flying was at a standstill for
planes without the equipment for
instrument flying.
The order did not interfere with
the air demonstration in connection
with the observance of Navy Day,
however.
There was little notice taken Of
the smoke in the Norfolk area, how
ever, as autumn fires in the swamp
are annual occurrences and the
density of the smoke was not heavy
enough to be troublesome, the As
sociated Press reported.
Traffic was slowed on highways
adjacent to the swamp area, but
none of the roads was closed.
Norfolk County Game Warden
w, C. Ansell, jr., who has been
attempting to save the hundreds of
bear, deer and small game animals
in the swamp, covering an area OF
IL by 25 miles, said that the fires
were the worst he had ever seen.
Ansell said ancient peat deposits
were burning, some to a depth of
IL feet.
At the Offices of Pennsylvania
Central Airlines at Norfolk it was
said the smoke had not interfered
with the traffic since Friday night
when a plane from Washington was
unable to land here and returned.
The Navy reported no flights had
been Cancelled.
Smoke was unusually heavy over
the Norfolk lk-Portsmouth area today,
however, and there was possibility
that aviation schedules would be
affected If conditions did not i'm
prove by tonight.
Occasional rain forecast here for
this afternoon was not expected to
relieve the air of the smoke which
filled the air over the Capital to
5000 feet.
The Weather Bureau Observatory
said it believed fog was mixed with
the smoke and that the condition
was partially due to high humidity.
A contributing cause, it was said
there, was the fact that fires were
lighted In many homes last night,
adding local smoke to the visiting
smoke from southarn virginia.
