outlook
Taking the alternatives Of a
Hitler victory or a Hitler defeat,
Irwin said:
IF Hitler wins, this nation
cannot stop its armament pro-

-"Instead Of spending 100000
000.0 on ornaments, we may
he compelled to spend $500, 1000
100000 or even S750,000, 900, 900.
This would mean tremen-
dous economic activity and
surely there can be no slump
while that lasts"
ON THE OTHER HAND
Turning 10 the other alterna-
tive. a Hitler defeat, he continued:
'1n that case, let me ask this
question:
"Nhat other nation under

POLTTIG AL
PERIgGOPE

Well established practice in Al
aska for government employees. and
sponsored b. the government, is
that OF purchasing supplies Outside
at wholesale prices. bringing them
TO Alaska on government boats and
giving them TO employees at the or
iginal wholesale purchase price. For
the government employee, especially
those in the lower bracket incomes,
it IS further proof that Santa
Claus lives in Washington. For Al
aska merchants and transportation
companies. who try TO make liy-
ing in the traditional old American
way of free competition. it's a crack
below the belt.
Before Congress at the present
time are two bills proposing TO le-
galfze this practice. and clear the
purchasing agent in Seattle who puts
himself in a bad spot when he buys
supplies for private consumption in
the name OF the government, al
though il has been done Tor years
with not even a frown from Wash
ington Like the old days OF boot
leg whiskey, it is one of those
things
These bills are known as n. R.

request OF the Indian office. which

posed as steps to help Indians and

H R. 3540 would legalize the
transport of the goods on the North
Star and Boxer, Indian Office boats.
and H. r. 3542 would, in the words
of the sponsors of the bill. auth
orize resale of supplies and mater
ials to employees in Alaska and 10
natives under such rules and reg
ulations as might be prescribed by
the Secretary of Interior. the pro-
ceeds from such sales to be deposited
TO the credit of applicable appro-
priations"
It also, say the sponsors, would
promote the ESPRIT DE CORPS Of
the employees OF the Alaska Service"
which, it is assumed, is aimed to
cause every Congressman to jump
right up with three rousing cheers
and a tiger for the good old ALAS
ka Service" and pass the bill.
In short, the bills would put the
Interior Department in the whole
sale and retail business in Alaska
in direct competition with every
merchant in the Territory.
OF course, being the government,
it would not be necessary for this
competitor to buy a license, pay any
taxes or hire any employees. It's en-
ployees already would be on the gov
eminent payroll.
Any merchant in Alaska would
jump at the chance to do business

DOerr Appears Stubborn Ho.dOut;
 Williams In!

Sarasota, Fla, Feb. 21.-(UP)- Bobby Doerr. regarded by many experts as the American leagues best second baseman, was chased as 8 holdout today by the Boston Red Sox, who believed that out fielder Ted williams, the clubs other unsigned player, would bring his contract to camp here.
 General Manager Eddie Collins said that Doerr, who underwent a appendectomy at his Eugene, ore. home and then went to Los Angeles to recuperate, has rejected two salary offers.
 "Doerr's demands are excessive, ? Collins said. "He has put such a high value on his services that we cannot meet his figures. Bobby has been given an increase every year and we feel that we have been very generous with him this year."
 Collins said he talked with Will Hams in Minneapolis and "sent him his contract :. probably he will bring his contract along signed"
 Doerr batted .291 in 151 games and fielded SIT. The slugging Williams hit for .344 and fielded .960 in IA contests.

fight. Thompson gets his nickname, incidentally from his eating prowesS. He once was locked in 8 grocery store and ate his way out, starting in the canned corn department and continuing through the delicatessen. He wound up eating three broiled turkeys.
 But he fights better than he eats. As good as liB left is with c fork in 1t, it is better with a glove on 1t. As deadly as his right Is with . knife in 1t. it is more formidable when swung from the floor and cov- erde with padding. I have seen him in two fights at the glamorous HolL lywood Legion (glamorouS because movie stars stand up in front of you and block your view of the fights) and he can hit. He's a standup puncher who doesn't have to wind up. He holds his hands high and, with ntle more than g swing of his shoulders, knocks his man dead with punches that make you think of Louis.
 All Through
 There was a time when Pastor could have beaten Thompson. be- cause Turkey still is green and a bit shy when faced by ranking op- ponent, but Pastor proved in the Billy Conn bout that he was through as the tandem pogo stick. He didn't have any punch against Bill,he was showed around unmerci- fully by a much lighter man, and he wound up being knocked out of the ring by boy who isn't sup posed to have much of a punch. If Conn could knock Pastor out of the ring, then Thompson will set him right up in the third TOW mez- Zanine.
 As inexperienced as he is, Thomp- son is one of the few fighters in this country with a chance against Louis. The only kind of fighter who is going to beat Joe is one who can hit like the devil, take a fair punch and keep moving in. Thompson has these attributes.
 Speaking of Louis, that is really something, that investigation of his fight with Gus Dorado. In the first place, what kind of expert Is the state senator who figures that Louis needs Dorado to take a dive? And in the second. Joe's record as 6 fighter is too clean, too honorable, to have to take a tar brush smear at this time. I'd like the senator from Pennsylvania to name me an athlete whose conduct has been more upright. fortnight. and sports- manlike than that of the colored boy from the cotton fields of Ala bama.

CROSBY TANK TEAM MEETS WEST HAVEN

On Saturday, February 22nd Crosby's classy mariners tangle with a not too highly-rated West Haven swimming team.

Reliable sources hereabouts are inclined to rank the "HavenerS" on a part with Man. chester who was soundly trounced to the tune of 46-29 a week ago by the Old Ivy aqua-artists.
 Regardless of their low rating, the visitors possess fine medly relay team and also are potent in the back stroke and breast stroke.
