JAP SUB TOURS PEARL HARBOR

One amazing incident of the Pearl Harbor attack can now be told Already announced in the Roberts Report was the fact that small Japanese submarine was sunk off the entrance of Pearl Harbor at 6:33 a. m., about one hour before Jap airplanes came over
 The submarine has since been raised and it's navi- gation chart log translated into English, showed remarkable voyage. The submarine had actually made complete tour inside this vital naval base had es- capped unseen, and the captain had noted the location ol each h. $. vessel together with the time he passed it.
 The chart showed the Jap sub had arrived off the entrance of Pearl Harbor at l:50 a.m Dec. "a few hours before the air attack It waited at the harbors mouth until APO a.m, when the net was lowered to let garbage out. Then the sub sneaked in The commander noted the location of the batteshps Utah and the West Virginia the former announced sunk He marked down the positions of twelve destroyers winch he said were hudded close together also three gunboatS, and the cruiser Trenton In another place he noted large white mans house.
 The chart showed that he passed out of the harbor unseen at 525 a. m and apparently lay off the har- bors mouth for the next hour while he radioed the ex act location of each ship to the awaiting Jap carriers About the only thing the Jap commander failed to put in his log was that at 633 am. he sunk.

Speed Is Important

Donald M. Nelson, chairman of the War Production Board to have put into practice of the fun damental precepts of modern - that speed and not price, is what pays off in producing materials
 Nelson has suspended competitive bidding on mill tary contracts in order to speed delivery of planes tanks, ships and equipment and to give more war contracts to smaller manufacturers.
 This is an order - not talk of plan for "bits and pieces farming out"
 Of course, it will cost more
 Small companies just can't in many cases, produce articles Of war as cheaply production indus tries Last fal for instance, the Washington Merry Go-Round reported that one company submitted a bid for $1100 for gun which bigger companies were making for $500
 It was not question of proiteering The disparity was due to the fact that the smaller company not experienced in mass s-producton methods.
 Under Nelsons order, the small company will get the order despite the added cost and United States fighting men will get the guns
 This does not mean there will be an orgy of spend- ng that there will be return to the waseful cost plus price system of the first World War.
 The Government will watch contracts closely just as businessman would, for signs of proiteering If an industry slips something over, the Government can make adjustments on the next contract-adiust- ments that will make the profteer wish he hadn't tried to be too smart in wartime
 But the vital point is that precious time will be saved in awarding contracts by avoiding the compile ated bidding system, and by putting to work more of the nations 100000 factories Daily Alaska Empire.

Farmers lrritated Over Farm Prices
 Bernard Baruch Warned of Danger

WASHINGTON Inside fact about the current quarrel over imitation and the farm bill is that sage old Bernie Baruch long ago warned the President, Leon Henderson and the inner circle that they could not stop imitation if they put the brake only prices
 "Price-fixing is like a four-legged chair" Baruch warned them. Tt won't stand two legs or even three"
 There is no use regulating consumer prices he said, unless you also regulate profits, also wages, also farm prices. If one of them gets out of hand the others will too Baruch, who head of the War Industries Board in the last war; has been harpng on this point for months. He urged Congress more than year ago to adopt very high profits tax to take away all the war profits from industry and at the time he urged the President to clamp down on wages as we'll as prices
 The President actually got little irritaed at Ba- ruchs pounding away this theme Today how eVer chief resentment of the farm belt not much against Roosevelt's urging that farm prices be kept down, but over the fact that labors income has sky reelected while the farmers hasn't. Furthermore the farmer complains that he has to pay lot more for his labor-when he can get it at a-but be can't in- crease his farm prices approximately.

Tokyo Short Route

It Is obvious that Governor Ernest M. Gruening of Alaska has lost nothing of the agressveness that dis hngulShed his career as a pubcist and crusading newspaper editor before he entered government ser vice Visiting the United States for the last fortnight the Territorial official has been outspoken in emphasis on the offensive possibilities of Alaska
 , Governor Gruening has told reporters he is not nearly so interested in the purely defensive character iscS of his territory in its advantages as base for delivering direct blows at the Pacific enemy Tt is offensive that needs bolserng" he said after talk with the President amid strong indications that his requests for intensified offensive preparations in Alaska would be speedily fulfilled
 casual look at the map is all that is necessary to put Dr. GrueningS point across. We tend to think of the Pacific the of immense distances and those lOO00-mile conveys to the present fighting zones do nothing to contradict the notion
 But the northern Pacific is far different matter Here the fartheSt United States outpostthe island of Attu in the Aleutans-is less than 600 miles, or two hours by bomber from the big Japanese naval base at ParamuShiro, off the tip of the Kamchatka Peninsula. Tokyo itself is but couple of thousand miles from our base at Dutch HarbOr, UnalaSka. Back in 1924 the famous rOund-t -the-WOrd flight by American Army airmen followed the Aleutan chain out over the Pac- Jhc, and the alrmen out of sight of land for than three or four hours at a time even with the slow equipment of those days. AS matter of fact the Aeutians sit right on the great circle route from Alaska to Tokyo
 Even if the distances involved twice as great, Dr. Gruening would be talking the language of the man in hte street when he plugs for offensive warfare, in preference to that of the defensive variety Hit em where they ve' is the common mans principal war aim, and the sooner few shells and bombs start dropping in MT. Motos front yard the better John O. is going to feel about the whole thing.

no right to accept.
Well, she wouldn't try to
match his enthusiasm. She

of her own. She tried to be
casual.
"A blue dress?" She gave him
an impersonal smile. why? Is
blue being worn this season?"
She wouldn't let him know how
wildly she recalled that dress

She couldn't do that. She dis
carded the thought before it
grew to a temptation. No, she'd
have to admit her part in writing
the checks and take the conse-
quences.
Firm in this resolve, she re-
turned to the office to face Andy.
But she found she need not
have worried at all. For Mr..
Herrick was in Andys office and
what he was saying cleared her
of any connection with the cases.
you're right, Andy" Mr..
Herrick agreed. His voice was as
smooth as cream. Il knew we'd
regret not returning the money
to two such fine customers"
He knew we'd regret it! Carol
suppressed a gasp. The colos-

boiling.
She supposed she should be
