SECRECY ABOUT
SABOTEURS

The American public is having ats best
demonstration of the possibilities OF CEN
sorship as the war department refuses
to allow any news at all to become pub
lie on the trial of suspects charged with
landing from German submarines to sab
otage American war industries.
In this case, it may be justified censor
ship We do not know-and therein lies
the danger of all censorship. When it Is
established, the people never know wheth-
er an official action is wise, whether 1t is
justified, or whether it is simply the
selfish action of some self-centered big
shot.
Consider the sabotage case.
It might be that testimony in that case
would, if made public, help the enemy
no end in planning new forays against
America 1t might be that the enemy does
not know how much our intelligence units
have learned, but would find out If the
trial were not kept completely secret, 1t
might be that information discussed at
the trial is of so vital character that
not one unauthorized person should be
allowed to hear the discussion.
If any of those things are true, then
the war department is fully JUSTIFIED IN
keeping the trial as secret as it has been
kept.
On the other hand, it might be that
bunch of brass hats in the army-the
kind of brass hats who tried Billy Mitch
ell-have Just decided that whatever the
army does is no business of the publlc's.
1t might be that there was major error
in arresting some of the defendants, or
in failing to arrest others, and the Off
GERS don't want to face the criticism that
would come if the error became known.
1t might be-but then, there are too many
possibilities on both sides of the ques-
ton to list half Of them.
The trouble is, censorship has been
so tight that we cannot tell even whether
it is wise. Perhaps that is necessary, per-
haps not There again, we cannot tell.
In times like these--in time of waE-it
NAV be best to lean toward the conclu-
sion that we must, sometimes, have faith
blindly. Better that than to take chance
on losing thousands OF our men, or few
of our factories.
But while we follow blindly, we should
bear in mind that this is for wartime only,
and even then only to a limited degree.
We must recognize the danger in such
censorship, so strict that it draws a cur
tain over all knowledge We must resolve
that never shall We accept any such con-
dition except in the greatest of all ma
tional emergencies, and then only for
limited time.

The soft pedal. the muzzle, the
gag and the muffler have all been
clamped on uninhibited discussion
by government officials of what's

TO quit being starry eyed and wor-

to the hard reality Of winning the
war. The first few Soundings Off

world haven't been we'll received

be il is fatuous to assume that
the United Nations will win

But people have always specu-

SCRAP RUBBER AGAIN?

With a synthetic rubber industry
capable of producing 100000 tons a
year, shall it be scrapped to go
back TO native rubber from the
Netherlands East Indies and Ma
laya?
Cr with new sources for up to
100000 tons of native rubber de-
Veloped in Latin America. shall
this new hemisphere industry be
permitted to die just to revive
Dutch and British plantations?
With production of the light
metals, aluminium and mag
nesium, stepped up tremend-
Ously, shall it be allowed to
lapse to pre-war proportions, or
shall there be a structural revO-
luton in which these metals
will compete with the alSO-eX-

GLORIFYING
YOURSELF
BY ALICIA HART
NEA Service Staff Writer

Simple language is a good part
of American charm. Americans
don't "petire"-they just go to
bed" Fancy words were hard for
a lady TO get by with before the
war-now they should be impos-
sible.
Voice teachers will tell you that
the best American speech is SIM
pie in choice of words and in pro-
nunciation. 1t is the woman who
has no more familiarity with her
language than an European gets
from books, who says II desire to
purchase" meaning II want to
buy" who attends the theater
instead of going to see a show "
and who leaves you, saying "Au
revoir, not goodbye"
Pronunciation also should be ma
tive. The adopted broad A strikes
most people as trying-to-be-B Brit
ish even when it isn't-unlesS the
hearer knows definitely that the
utterer was brought up on broad
AS. Besides. the affected broad A
practically never is consistent, be-
cause speech is something we learn
long before we learn to affect
language, and we don't forget the
firSt-acquired sound.

Only a smattering of Juneau residents braved the white miii- tary secret last night to the High School gymnasium to watch two Juneau City League basketball games.
 In the first game, the Malamutes battled the St. Louis Blues to a standstill in a scoring spree, ring ing the bucket for a total of 35 points to the Blues 25.
 The Blues wouldn't have made as good a. showing as they did if it hadn't been for Griffith, who tossed in six field goals and three free throws, for a total of l5 points, making high score for that game. On the Malamute side, De- sek was the high man, with five field goals, a ten-point total.
 The game between the Falcons and the Officers Club wasn't as free scoring, with the officers Club edging out the Falcons 19 to 16.
