ALASKA AIR LINES PROTECTION

Possibility of establishment of priority rights in airline services and travel as well securing of parts and repacements and elimination of certain local flights is of unusual interest to Alaska, dependent more than any other region airplanes for travel mail, press and freighting services.
 Old parts of the nation have many other means of service Alaska, with it's few roads, must look to the plane than any other region. News Weeks refers to the newly developed situation follows:
 "The airline jam is becoming extreme, partly be- of requsitionng of transport planes for British and partly because of rapidly increasing travel At least line is having to hire added personnel just to turn away Would-be passengers. The Administration is preparing to acquisition still airline planes feel ing that the British need for military transports in Africa and the Middle East is important than the nondefense travelling still done airnes Indications that the U S. will yet have to ration air travel aot ting priority cards to government officials and defense industry executives and thus giving them right-ofway over non-defense travellers. second plan being dis cussed is elimination of many short-hau flights

IS ALASKA GOING SOFT?

Can it be that Alaska under the impact of an Gin vasion from the states is losing it's oldtime punch? Some recent dispatches from the Northand are dis turbng.
 First the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes, one of the continents most interesting phenomena is going soft mining engineer reports that only Smokes" are left in the Mount Katma region of the Aleutian Peninsula, and they "small mild and apparently growing smaller" Presently, it is predicted they will subsde to their innocuous pre-1912 state
 Not to be outdone by this Juneau report Ketch- kan comes through with story about the 'drought" in that area Rainfall in August toaled only 75 inch compared with normal average of 1.57 inches and temperatures have ranged through the 7Os high of 8l Moreover it's so dry that for the first time water has to be shipped out to the lighthouses and low water prevents the homing salmon from ascending the streams to spawn
 Possibly these records are meaningless in a long, range view, indicating just temporary kicking over the traces on the part of the Japanese current or other phenomenon, Or they may be coincidences But they raise questions among the oldest inhabitants

POLICE ALASKA WATERS

Roosevets declaration of a policy of freedom of llle AIoOta haoh time The President means to see to it that Axis war ships will be met with direct action when encountered in American defense waters.
 This policy, under Germany far-fung sea-raiding activities is absolutely necessary to the continued sup plying of the Alaska civil and military entities
 And don't think for minute that Hitler doesn't have his eye on up here A submarine was seen in the waters of Prince William Sound less than two weeks ago-and it wasn't U, S. submarine, either
 The people of Alaska should realize the dire straits they might easily be in it not for the az gressiVe policy that the United States army and navy are taking.
 So far as Alaskan waters are concerned, it might be well for the navy to interpret Roosevelts order Of freedom of the to "policing' of the seas.
 Alaska is at once a citadel of democracy and one of the frOntnes against those who would overthrow it. The Presidents defiance of Hitlerism is mighty com fortng to us in the Teritory-Cordova Times.

Dry Cleaning Takes } Weeks In London
By MARGARET BUNNELLE :. Wife of Robert E. Bunnelle, Chief ...... of London Associated
 Press Bureau

LONDON-Women in England are streamlining their household establishments because it's hard to get servants and too difficult and too expensive to do things on a lavish scale any more.
 Thousands have closed down their large houses and have talk en small, compact places where they can do their own housework or manage with a part-time maid Where l live, in South Kensing- ton, there are blocks and blocks of stately old homes deserted by their owners. The few modern apartment houses in this district have waiting lists, and rents for these places are exorbitant.
 A friend who recently moved out of a lovely big Georgian house with a beautiful garden, into an efficient flat explained that Its just too expensive and too much trouble to keep up a big place. Anyway, my family is scattered. One daughter is driv- ing an ambulance, the other is a nurse, and my two sons are in the army. My husband spends most of his out of London on war work"

Women Do Mems Work

The servant problem has be- come more trying because mems jobs have been opened to women. Women are now bus conductors. truck drivers, railway porters, milk men" and ''postmen" as well as working in the various Womens services.
 Servants who had been accus- toned to working around the clock for four or five dollars a week and keep find the hours, pay and more independent posi- tiOn of these new jobs more at tractive.

A small family laundry which used to cost about $2 a week now costs $4, and the work is inferior. Many women are do- ing their nicer things themselves.

a SEASON OF perfectly fascinat-
n ing colorful woods and woolknits
is with US, so prepare to yield to
temptation to the limit of your
clothes budget. The little pastel
wool dresses called classics" be-
cause of the sculptural simplicity of
their styling, are ideal for immedi-
ate wear. Don one of these neat,
sweetly tailored frocks, so refresh
ingly springlike in color, and you
will find yourself buoyantly taking
an entirely new outlook on life.
In regard to costume suits, the
big news is that of woolens keyed to
the dominate note in prints, the two
going ffty-ffty in an ensemble tech
nique. This fair for combining print
silk with wool in related color is
one of those fashion gestures that
bids fair to develop into a far-fung
vogue as the season progresses.
Capes have dashed into the lime
light Of fashion dramatically and
Importantly. Yes, indeed, capes are
just about to "steal the show" this
spring, the smartest being full
length. Some are of soft woods in
beige or cinnamon or navy, if you
please. The light-colored woods have
blended fur collars, while the navy
versions take on a military aspect
after the manner of officers capes.
At any rate, fashion is making
dramatic play on capes, both in pas
tel wool weaves and navy.
Another highlight in fashions
realm is that of woolknits in pastels
and rich dark colors. Many of the
wool knits can scarcely be told from

Lots of Color in Sight
On Spring Style Horizon

Look to your colors! You can
align yourself with the pastel enthu-
siasts or you can go colorfully South
American. There is convincing
argument in favor of either.
Speaking of the lighter colors, of
course you will want at least one,
if not several, of the perfectly
charming and most fattering pastel
wool frocks. Chapters could be
written about these fascinating
frocks.
A favorite decorative touch for
these pastels is the trapunto quilted
effect.
When it comes to the startling
South American color technique, not
even the rainbow or the whole color
spectrum is exceeded in the bright
hues of red, yellow, purple and
blue that are amazingly combined
in daring contrast. ,
There is also a decided showing
of vivid russell, brown, tangerine
and similar shades in the new color
schemes for spring. Lots of purple
is used with cerise.
Emphasis is noted on beige this
spring, and chamois is smart new
color for coats.

Dorothy Maynor, who an incredibly
snort time ago was just happy-go-
lucky student Gathering around Hamp-

turned to her Alma Mater Friday. Jan.
"a, as one of the most brilliant and be-
loved singers of her generation. Her
concert, third in Hampton's current
Musical Art series, took place in Og-
den Hall at 8:15 pm.
Miss Maynor's rise to fame since she
was discovered" by Koussevitzky of
the Boston Symphony Orchestra little
more than year ago has been so rapid
and so spectacular that her friends in
her native Virginia are still rubbing
their eyes.
No one is unduly surprised, for her
voice was known and loved long before
1T brought her fame The congrega-
ton of the church in Norfolk where
her father, John J. Maynor, was pastor
heard it first. Then Hampton Insti-
tute discovered it in the course of the
ten industrious years that Miss Nav
nor spent there-first as a student in
the Academy, then in the college, and
finally as teacher in the Phenix School
During her years at Hampton she
frequently toured with the Institutes

to whom Miss Maynor once publicly
expressed debt of gratitude for the
help and encouragement he gave her
in her student days, has kept a vel
lowed clipping from a Boston paper
that proves the young sopranos voice
caught the attention of critics long
before the world had heard of her.
The clipping remarks without names
that Hampton Institute Choir had with
1t soprano voice of unusual beauty
and power. The occasion was Miss
Maynor's first appearance in Boston
Symphony Hall as a soloist with DR..
! Dett's choir. She has made more
I recent appearances with the whole
Boston Symphony Orchestra behind
her to support her marvellous voice.
Critics find that the most remarkable
factor in Miss Maynor's art is that she
is equipped by voice and temperament
to sing all phases of the soprano roper
toire, lyric, dramatic and coloratura
instead of being restricted to one type
alone as is often the case with even
highly gifted singers. She is indeed
as versatile a soprano as the great

Fashion Futures
Forecast Styles
American Made Costumes
Add Charm to Picture.
By CHERIE NICHOLAS


Recently, the Fashion Group of
America, an organization of far
,eaching influence, in collaboration
with various other leading style
sources staged in New York what
was probably the most pretentious
style prevue ever presented in
America. The event, one of untold
significance, was attended by news
paper representatives and style au-
thorities from coast to coast. In
tense interest centered around the
fact that the styles shown we're
American fashions, created by
American designers. The following
paragraphs cite a few of the fore
casts in the way of fashion futures,
as presented at this style meeting.
The new trend in shoulder seams
is toward more subtly sloping
Zines. - Jackets are longer.
Straight lines are newest. Sustained
interest, however, in fullness is
evidenced in subtle pleats and
Grapes.
Capes are cast to play a highly
dramatic and spectacular role. The
"officer cape" in navy is smart.
Cloth capes top print dresses and
the print of the dress is repeated in
the cape lining.
AS to color, Fashion Futures say
green in all it's varying tones, for
an American spring. The Beiges,
off-whites, neutral cereal shades,
brown and grays will be favored.
Pastels at the top of the color list,
vie with South American colors for
supremacy, Navy comes forth to
win new laurels.
Bright color wool coats are out
standing. Handknits and wool knits
that look handmade, some fabric
like in texture and dressmaker-fash-
Toned, are smartly featured. New
and important is the ensembling of
wool monotones with prints, with
an eye to perfect color blending. The
wool weave makes the coat or cape
that tops the print frock.
Accessories add drama to the
scene. Pursuit red as accent to
pilot green is in the spotlight,
Peruvian pink, also tiger yellow,
highlights navy. Flower jewelry
and animal jewel gadgets, military
insignias, jewel buttons-all have
their place in the spring mode.
Fashion Futures say that hats this
spring are made to decorate, to COM
pliment you. There is underbrim
emphasis, pompadour accent, and
general air of appealing femininity
about this seasons hats. Many hair
do fantasies add charm to the style
picture.

YOUR GROWING GLORY

More letters come to me every day
regarding the care of the hair than
on any one other subject. For this
reason l am going to make this an
open letter to all those who have prob
lens concerning their hair.
First and foremost, shining, lustrous
hair is not acquired over night. Hair
requires daily care just as the skin
does. Most of you wait until you hair
MAS become dull, dry and brittle and
then, in despair, you write for a quick
cure. And there is no quick cure for
lifeless hair.
Diet and Sleep Affect Condition of
Hair
Your diet and the life you lead affect
the condition of your hair. If you
want the kind of hair that men admire
and women envy, you must lead a
sane, healthy life. None of this burn
ing the candle at both ends. don't
mean you must go to bed every night
with the chickens, but you must aver
age at least eight hours sleep every
night in a well-ventilated room and get
an hours healthful exercise, prefer
ably out of doors. And you must
watch your diet. Eat plenty of fresh
fruits and vegetables rather thar
sticking to heavy menu of starches
and sweets. And drink lots of water
Beauty and health go hand in hand
and if you take good care of your
health, it will be reflected in your hair
skin and eyes, as well as in your frame
of mind.
Brushing your hair every day is one
