FREIGHT ON THE WING

Among the good things which Alaska is likely to chalk up in years hence having been developed by the press of emergency during the present de- fense program, will be a more adequate air freight system.
 At least such is the indication right now, as the army gets ready to put into operation a fleet of two-engned transport planes for weekly service to Alaska defense bases.
 Necessity has always been the mother of in- venton. In the first World War we learned to manufacture lot of things in this country which we had formerly imported from Europe, simply be- needed these articles and they no longer available from the former of supply. In this war the thing is taking place.
 In fact, all over the country transportation problems, manufacturing difficulties and distribution bottlenecks are being smoothed out which never would have been corrected if necessity dictated by the defense speed-up in commerce and industry had not forced methods American business.
 And in Alaska in particular, the defense work has opened up vast field of development. This latest phase of the picture is most certainly the direct child of expedency the part of the defense program. The U. S. army, finding that existing transportation facilities are not adequate for the shipment of supplies to Alaska bases, is taking the business of Alaska transportation into its own hands.
 i. Because of the rpriorites system affecting the manufacture of airpanes the army has to do the job if it's going to be done. Commercial plane lines find relatively impossible these days secure more planes for the expansion of their service
 May it be hoped that these winged horses of the military machine will not return to the south with their cockpits empty Strategic minerals and other important products of the Territory which right now of vital importance in the States may very well be loaded in the planes and taken back
 One thing is certain. When the present emer- gency is passed Aaskans are not going to allow the air freight service which is now being naugurated by the army to be discontinued When Uncle Sam no longer has such large stake in the Territory

under the Senator's frank to lists of Nazi sympathizers all over the coun- try. Bundles of 800 to 1000 were made up unaddressed, sent to Ger American organiza tions in Chi cago and New York. These organi- zations wrote the addresses on the franked envelopes and mailed them free.
 NOTE: The free mailing privilege was given Congressman as a free means of getting legitimate personal information to the public, not to be passed on for the use of others.
 These were the speeches written by paid Nazi agent, registered with the State Department as receiving $1,000 monthly from Germany-Nazi speeches mailed postage-free, after being delivered on the floor of the most revered legislative body in the world.

FAXED NAZI TRANsLATIoNs

Among the isolationists playing ball with Flanders Hall is the famous Mrs. Elizabeth Dilling who calls Roosevelt a Red" and who sent copies of the book FREE to her regular mailing list Father Cough lin also gave big boost to Lord Lothian vs. Lord Lothian" in his Social Justice, while the Germania Book Shop and Westermann's Of York pushed it's sale.
 Another interesting feature of Flanders Hall is its other publica- tions. One of them is called 'sThe Hapiess Boers" supposed to be writ ten by Dutchman, but actually translated from England und die Buren, by Stephan Schroeder, a German.
 Another smear on the British is Democracy on the Nile" allegedly by an Egyptian, Sayid Halassie, but actually translation of "England's gewaltopolitik am Nil' by Paul Schmitz-Kairo. Both books were published by the German Informa- ton Bureau, a Nazi propaganda agency
 And or the back of many of these books is an open letter addressed Dear Fellow American" which among other things says: Ours is patriotic task for which we freely ask the support of all those who believe with LIS in AMERICA FIRST and AMERICA ONLY" Nothing is said in this patriotic appeal about where the money comes from to pub fish these books, or who wrote the

HOROSCOPE. :.
 4.ia "The stars inclime nrs but do mot compel" z.
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER IL

Benefic aspects strongly domin- ate today Mars is in threatening sway but the Sun, Neptune and Saturn are well placed. r n E, :. HEART AND HOME: This k Is a favorable time for seeking the favor or the assistance of persons who wield power of any sort. Girls should be fortunate who apply for positions, especially if they desire to enter any service connected with defense. Clear judgment should guide women in making decisions under this configWation which is especially promising for all who engage in industry Older women are under stimulating and helpful planetary direction They will render important aid in period of national emergency.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Commerce comes under sway that is most helpful to the United States which will pour out its wealth of raw materials, manufactured products and food supplies in quantities no, hitherto handled in ocean trans ports. Trade will gain momentum this month. Again the Christmas shopping period is to be profitable in a high degree. Domestic manu- factures will take; the place of many European imports, some e,of which are perfectly reproduced,
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Subjects of civic importance that hitherto have aroused the people of the United States will lose, interest in the next few weeks when .J,it will become apparent that there is no dodging the full responsi- bility of carrying on in the zsec- ond World War There is a Sign today which is read as presaging increased activity of our Navyh in Pacific waters This will crystal lize public sentiment in fAvoeS of Washington policies. Because Mars will not make an aspect to- Uranu, and Saturn within the nexts three months, the full impact of conflict probably will not be felt before the beginning of the new year,,,
 INTERNATIONAL AFF AlIRB:: It is often pointed out that the national emergency proclahatioa of last May announced indirectly that President Roosevelt is the most important man in the world today. This means that he is mere ly the symbol of the greatest ,aof nations, the leader of the democra- cies. Despite all isolationist ef- forts, national unity will be achieved and the Administration will be wholeheartedly supported. In April or before, definite fight ing will engage our splendid forces.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of pro motion or advancement. There may be an urge toward extremes in conduct. Money spending should be watched. Ja
 Children born on this day prob ably will be lucky all through life. Bright minds and magnetic personalities will attract good for tune.

the Alaskans who got used-to regular aerial freight service will certainly want to perpetuate commer- cia service which will duplicate the job now being started by army pilots.
 And because where need has been developed some good businessman will always find some way of filling that need there be doubt that the air freight service will be continued.

JIMMY RoOsEvELT's sTENoG

Inere IS young StenOg In Wash ington who will probably remember the incident all her life.
 Captain Jimmy Roosevelt, eldest son of the President, is doing some special work in Colonel William Donovan's Office of Information. Requiring a stenographer for rush job, Jimmy sent word to the "sten- ographic pool" to send him one.
 The young lady selected was from a small town, had been in Wash ington only few weeks and Jimmy was the first big-name figure she had seen close up. She seated her self alongside his desk while he bored over pile of papers. When Jimmy looked up to begin dictating he was startled to find the girl shak- ing like leaf.
 Whats the matter?' he asked Are you ill?"
 She wasn't ill, it was merely a bad case of stage fright. Sitting along side the tall, deboaair son of the President of the United States was too much.
 You'll have to excuse me, MT Roosevelt" she blurted out. T don't think I can manage your dictation I'll ask them to send another girl,
 Flushing furiously, she dashed out of the office.
