TIE ISOL1TIONISTS

The political campaign has
brought renewed criticism OF
congressman who advocated an
about drive for home defense.
They followed the theory that
his nation should be made
ltrong enough to withstand
any military strength that could
he mustered against Us and that
foreign aid should be confined
to definitions, military advisers
and as much war equipment and
supplies as we could safely send
abroad.
Once we had been attacked,
that policy seemed TO be wrong,
but now we hear a message from
Wendell Willkie that seems
rather startling, particularly in
view Of the fact that he has
visited leaders Of nations allied
with the United States in the
war and should have good rea-
son for his predictions.
Mr.. Willkie said in a recent
speech that the United States
will win this war, czen # Den
5cr becomes another Stdlngrdd.
If this means that a Japanese
invasion may be expected and
that it might be possible for the
japanese army to advance as far
inland as Denver, it must also
mean that close attention should
be given the defense of the west
as well as the east coast and our
north and south boundaries.
If the United States should be
invaded there would immediate
" arise loud cries for stronger
home defense and the argument
that isolationists should have
had support. The fact would be
emphasized that there was
strong sentiment in the United
States for peace, for minding
our own business, Tor letting the
rest of the world fight their bat
ties alone and adjusting our az
fairs with the victors, whoever
they might be. after the war was
oyer. We would also be remind
cd that the president, himself
expressed the opinion that our
boys would never again be call
cd upon 10 fight on foreign soil.
OF course we are not ready
vet TO believe that this country
can be invaded. Conditions have
takeff such a course that we be-
lieve it best to wage war on
foreign soil to prevent invasion.
But we have before us an excel
lent example of how easily gov
eminent representatives may be
enormously Judged, how wrong
they may eventually be when
they are publicly declared right
or how right they may lie when
they appear to be wrong.

available. The Surgeon-Generals
report is authoritative, accurate
and frank, but it is evident that
the cause and nature of the cpl
iemic is more or less Of a mystery.
The cause Of the epidemic was
ascribed to the use Of yellow fever
vaccine; or to be exact, of certain
lots of yellow fever vaccine. All
large outbreaks were associated
with the administration Of these
lots of vaccine. 1t could be pre-
dicted, after the association was
known, that troops at far distant
stations who had been inoculated
with these lots would come down
with jaundice in a proportion OF
cases.
But what there was in the vac
zine that caused it is unknown.
All Army, Navy and Public
Health forces were for a time
yaccinated with serum made the
same way and no case of jaundice
resulted. The serum has been sub
iected to a change in process Of
manufacturing and extensively
.ested, so that all safeguards for
future vaccinations have been
made. Only troops destined for
points where there is danger Of
yellow fever will be vaccinated, a
east for a time.
Fever More Dangerous
II should be emphasized that
vaccination against yellow fever
is a recognized method of prevent
ing a disease which would be
far more dangerous than the
jaundice Of this epidemic.
Jaundice is due to a variety Of
things, one being a destruction of
liver cells. and since yellow fever
derives its name from a jaundice
Of that sort, it was naturally sug-
gested at first that these were
actually cases Of yellow fever. But
careful microscopic examination
OF liver tissue made in autopsy Of
the few rare cases Of death showed
a liver destruction that was not
at all like that Of yellow fever
The official circular states very
emphatically that these jaundict
cases were not cases of yellow
fever.
Nor were they cases Of ordi.

from such high sources would not

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
]. K.:-What foods are to be
avoided in hay fever?
Answer: Hay fever victims find
that during the season they get
sensitized to foods that do not
affect them at all the rest Of the
year. Every victim must find out
for himself the food that affects
him, because they are different
for each.

Ihats the Interpretation placed
on his abandonment Of Nazi recog-
milton of the Geneva Convention,
which was drawn to end wartimes
inhumanities as far as possible, and
which pledged its signatories,
among other things, TO decent
treatment Of helpless captives in
their opposing midsts.
The supposition is that Adolf
senses a German inclination to give
up and plans to counteract it by
convincing his followers that, if
they do, they'll be massacred.
The United Nations murder Of
a considerable number Of their cap
tured Nazis might give such an i'm
preston, and the Fuehrer hopes TO
irritate the democracies into doing
their desired part. by slaughtering
some Of their soldiers in his own
hands. The Germans it's proposed
to have sacrificed may not fancy
the idea, but presumably they're
not to be consulted.
Something Of a problem will be
presented to the democracies, too.
Highly Aggravating
Il will be a decided aggravation
to have the Nazis killing their ma
tionals without reciprocating
against their captured enemies.
Nevertheless, they're likely to have
more scruples in the matter than
Herr Hitler is apt to have.
As an indication that Adolf Is
worried concerning his country
mems morale, the prospect isn't
democratically unfavorable.
symptoms Of anxiety in him have
been noted for some time, how
ever.
They're explicable.
For one item, he naturally imper-
atively needs his military force
100 per cent on his fighting front,
and he has to hold about half of 1t

conquered but simmering neigh

Disposing OF Hitler

speculation.
True, a pair OF alternatives are
suggested.
One is that the Germans them
selves will dispose Of him. Very
few commentators surmise that
he'll be permitted to duck out as
the Kaiser did and die gradually in

next WEEK
Civilian D efense Board
Orders Another Alert
for Thursday

Another air raid drill, similar to
the one held yesterday, will be
staged in Juneau next Thursday
starting at 11:45 am, the Civilian
Defense Board decided last night.
This will mean another drill for
the school children and the Board
hopes that some of the defects

cleared up.
Last night the Board discussed
the possibility of building trails
to the woods and hills around Ju-
neau and carrying out a drill evac-
uation. 1t was decided that given
given enough warning, evacuation
from the city could be carried out
to provide more safety for residents
in case of an attack.
The question of enough volunteers
for the Civilian Defense Unit still
occupied the minds of the MEM
bers of the Board, and it was re-
ported that in spite of the urgent
need and continued publicity of
this need, only a few more per-
sons had signed up with the Unit
since the last meeting.
A. B. Phillips, however, pointed
out that response to his call for
women volunteers to act as stem
ographers was gratifying.
Director Frank Metcalf appointed
a committed consisting of Dan Raj
ston, Mayor Harry I. Lucas and
John Kennedy to conduct a per-
sonalized drive for volunteers.
