Navy May Establish
Plane Facilities al
Mouth Of Patuxent
PIon to Buy Big Troct
Is Under Consideration;
Details Not Disclosed

Plans for purchase of large tract
of land near the mouth of the Pa
tuxent River for construction Of
naval air facilities are being con-
sidered by the Navy, it was learned
today.
Original plans call for purchase of
between 5000 and 1000 acres, with
possible acquisition of more later.
The Navy would not give details of
the planned development, but it is
thought it will include the Cedar
Point area.
The Navy has long known of the
excellent harbor facilities in the
mouth of the Patuxent, where many
ships were kept during and after the
World War. At many places there
are large areas with a depth of so
or more feet which give excellent
protection and quiet anchorage.
1t Is not known what type of all
| facilities are to be housed at tht
location, and it is possible the de.
velopment might include a large
flying field rs well as seaplane base
1t is known that while the Navy
now has almost enough money to
purchase the land, the improvement
of the project would be subject to
congressional authorization and ap-
preparation.
Options on large portions of the
land have been sought, and may be
exercised soon, it was learned. This
might include some picturesque
country estates. However. it is not
known whether land on both sides
of the river would be needed. If
the base is centered on the Cedar
Point side, it still might be neces-
sary to control the Soloman's Island
side for purposes of naval secrecy
and for general operations Of the
area as naval base.
Any type of base at this point
would be a logical defense of the
Capital area, either from air or
water approach. The site is about
l25 miles from the Atlantic Ocean
by air, and is up the bay more than
200 miles from the Norfolk naval
base.

Registration on May 20 Will Make
 Possible Inventory of Manpower

JUNEAU April 23 - Emphasizing that the Selec- tive Service Registration May 20, 1942 will make possible urgently needed comprehensive inventory of the Nations manpoWer for war production, John L. Mccormick Territorial Director of Selectve Ser vice. today pointed out that it affects every male resi- dent in Alaska between the ages of 45 and GA years, inclusive, with few exceptions made by Congress. The requirement, Director Mccormick explained, is that all male persons not previously registered, who had attained their forty-ffth birthday on or before Feb. 16 1922, and who have not attained their sixty fifth birthday on or before April 27, 1942, must reg ister between am and pm on May 20, 1922 In other words, all unregistered men who were born on or after April 28, 1877, before Feb 16, 1897 must register.
 Registration on May 20, 1942 should be made at a designated registration place of the local board n which the re9istrant has his permanent home in which he may happen to be between the hours of am. and pm.
 Must Answer All Questions
 Re9Strants must answer all questions asked by the registrar for notation the registration card It is important that the regisrant describe his place of residence in detail and give full particulars to the address at which he will be sure to receive mail or other communications.
 Anyone unaVoidably away from home on May 20 1922 may register at the most convenient registration place, the Director said but all registrants urged to make every effort to register with their local boards to avoid possible confusion in the future Any person who must register away from home also is warned to carefully specify his home adress that his registration card may be forwarded promptly to his own local board
 Special registrars will be provided to register who cannot appear at designated registration place because of illness other incapacity the Director stated, but it is incumbent upon such to advise registrar in their local board of their inability to appear.
 registrant who has more than place of resi- dence may choose which he wants recorded his place of residence, but no transient address may be recorded, Director Mccormick declared and regis trant who lives on RED route which goes through two States is required to indicate the location of his residence, rather than his mailing adress After the registrant has answered all questions and signed his to the registration card, he will be given registration certificate which must be in his personal possession at all times Failure to possess this certificate, to show it to authorized persons consti tutes violation of Selective Service Regulations and is considered prma face evidence of failure to register
 Not Liable For Military Service Director Mccormick pointed out that those men from 45 to 65 years old registering not liable for military service under the SelectiVe Training and Service Act of 1940 amended. Later, he said they will be required to fill out occupational question: naire but that will be merely for the purpose of ob- taining information.

CONSUMERS NEED not
deny themselves apples for the
Thanksgiving holiday, or any
time this season for they are
plentiful and reasonably priced.
There are ample supplies of
cranberries. according 70 the
Detroit Municipal Bureau of
Markets.
There is a ceiling price on po-
tatoes, but because of generous
offerings are selling somewhat
lower than the top price per-
mits.
IN PLENTIFUL supply are
apples, green beans, cabbage.
tai'le grapes, peppers, potatoes
and sweet potatoes.
Beets, Brussels sprouts, cauli-
flower, celery cabbage, cram
berries, eggplant, lettuce, mush-
rooms, onions, rutabagas. shall
lots, spinach and tomatoes are
IN moderate supply.
THERE IS to be an ample
supply of all kinds of poultry for
Thanksgiving but prices are ex-
pected to be from 20 to 35 per
cent higher than year ago.
The Office of Price Admins
tration has set ceiling prices on
live and dressed turkeys so no
matter how heavy the demand
the prices will not get out of

There are a few simple rules

over the board when ironing. If
possible have sink and board OF

Old Meanies you'd like to feed
downstream yourself?
However, there's an even
worse type Of Elder than those
Aged Aggravators-and that's
the pompous old Patriarch who
turns philosophical.
And thenceforth proceeds to
survey the whole human scene
with condescending pity :.
smiling contemptuously on our
Foolish Furies :. Boosting how
they cured themselves of such
childish turbulence.
This form of Old Age is par
ticulafly dangerous because it
looks so sage and respectable
and gets such a ready hand from
almost any audience.
How wonderful" we sigh,
wiping the sweat and blood from
our bewildered eyes, "how won
derful and wise TO possess such
poise to be able to stand
aloof from all distractions!"
Life Is for Action
Wonderful Phooeyl There Is
nothing admirable nor intelli-
gent in such detachment.
II is simply a supreme exhibit
ton Of laziness and cowardice.
Life was not made for peace
nor were our brains given us
that we might attain safety and
contentment
Life was made for action.
Only those who dare to act
dare to experiment and adj
venture, wonder and desire,
yearn and grieve, rejoice and
rebel, really live.
The others have crawled into
their collins and pulled the lids
down after them. AS door stops,
paper weights or garden orna-
ments, they're interesting knick-
knacks-but as Men they're a
complete flop.
Yes, / know-the doctors will
tell you that this condition is
due TO hardened arteries or some
such physical mishaps. Don't
you believe it!
Hearty Old People
And they are worse than con-
temptible-t h csc complacent
Methuselahs.
They are traitors to our high
est human faith. For if il be a
mans duty TO live life danger
ously while young. il is his far
greater obligation to live it gall
lantly when he is old--as one
who still rejoices in a good bar
gain. still pits himself against
those forces which would con-
quer a mere brute.
Give me hearty Old People
-. reckless Old People Old
People who still dare to be mad
and glad, sad and bad!
AS for me, I'd rather end UP
in a disorderly gutter in the
middle of a gorgeous brawl than
on any placid Mt. Olympus that
ever parked a philosophical pos
terror.
