WAKING UP?

Under the heading, "Our Neglected Possession,
an article appeared in this weeks Saturday Evening
Post discussing Alaska with relation to using 1t as
la springboard for attacking the enemy and as an
area whose military value to the United States has
too long been overlooked We are glad to see that
the writer of the article is aiding to bring before
the American public the regretabe neglect that has
been shown for the Territory in this respect. To
date there is no tangible evidence to show that
officials in Washington are going to do anything
about it in spite of the fact that representatives
there have constantly brought the subject out in the
open
We quote from the article
suddenly we discover that what may be, or
may we'll become the strategic center of the world
belongs to us, and we have road to it. Many
Americans know it only by legend, by picture by
post card and by name. The name is Alaska. There
are three reasons why now we become aware of its
extreme military importance-the basic geographic
theme of this total world war the battle of the
Pacific, and the rise of air power.
Actually Alaska is on the way to the Orient.
The shortest distance between Chicago and Tokyo
is circle passing through the center of Alaska.
The shortest way from San Francisco to Tokyo is
not by way of Honolulu. as you might suppose but
again circle almost touching Dutch Harbor which
is 1000 nautical miles north of Honolulu. From
Dutch Harbor to Tokyo the distance is only $500
miles-half the distance from San Francisco-but
at the extreme end of the Aeutian island chain lies
Attu also belonging to us, and from Attn to the
heart of the japanese Empire the distance is only
/ TOO miles.
with Alaska, the peninsula and the Aleutian
Islands we have front of nearly 1000 miles across
the top of the Pacific Ocean, on water that never
freezes, because it is warmed by the Kuroshio Cur
rent something like the Gulf Stream-and many
excellent natural harbors. You do not have to be
strategist to realize what it would mean 10 have a
series of powerful naval and air bases like stepping
stones over the top of the North Pacific"

THE FISHERIES PROBLEM

A recent issue of the American Journal of In
ternatona Law contains discussion of the inter-
national fishery situation which should be of inter-
est to Alaskans 1t was written by Edward w. Allen,
member of the international Halibdt Commission,
prominent Seattle attorney former chairman of the
Alaska Committee of the Seattle Chamber of Com
and prominent authority fisheries questions.
Two fishery bills were recently introduced in
Congress- the McNary Bill s. 1712 and the WALL
gren Bill, S. 1915 The first grants regulatory
powers to salmon taken in the waters of the
Pacific Ocean south CT so degrees north latitude.
The second grants like powers to any fish taken
in the waters CT the North Pacific Ocean, including
the Boring Sea and the Arctic Ocean, north of so
degrees north latitude
The McNary Bill applies only more than three
miles off shore, while the Walgren Bill applies both
to Alaska inShore and offshore waters. Both
based the governments power to exercise regua-
tory control its citizens and the high
The important fact about these bills, Allen
points out is that they apply to ofshore fisheries
and recognize that regulation for only three miles
from shore will not suffice Allen emphasizes that
either national international control be
cised beyond the three-nle range if the great food
reservoir of the is to be utilized in such man
ner as tc furnish the enormous annually recurrent
food supply which it is capable of producing and
which under adequate regulation can be made
perpetual
Most of the valuable saltwater fisheries are
found in that comparatively small part of the ocean
extending the shore line out to the edge of
the continental shelf, The fishermen of a nation
naturally more numerous over the part of that
shelf bordering their shores Enforced restraint
therefore, Allen says by nation its own citi-
zens and vessels be beneficial
But with the development of modern, long
range fishing ships and the so-caed mother ships

this control limited to nations own citizens is not
sufficient answer to the demand for fishery con-

HOROSCOPE
1.-THE stars incline
but do not compel"
FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 20

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 20
Adverse planetary aspects slight
| ly overbalance the bensfic in
fluences today. In the morning the
mind should be keen and the men
tai vision clear.
HEART AND HOME: Women
come under a disturbing sway
while this configuration prevails.
They may be susceptible to I'M
happy suggestions and may feel
many approximations regarding the
safety of their relatives who are
in the service of the nation. The
stars seem 5 to give assurance of
favorable conditions for the heads
of army, naval and aviation forces.
This is, the time to, make plans for
spring and summer of extra
ordinary activities especially in
hospitals and recreation clubs.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Stimu-
ating and energizing conditions
ere foreseen for men who WELD
power in industry and finance.
There are good signs for spring
activities in manufacturing, mer-
shandising and exporting. The
good effects of scientific planning
in Washington will become ap-
parent. Shortage of workers will
ause anxiety but older men and
Young women will prove efficient
Production will increase in certain
lines of industry while it may lag
in others.
NATIONAL ISSUES: Despite
much teaching over the radio and
in the newspapers many Americans
will retain ideas regarding the
invulnerability of the United States
md will be slow to realize how
gigantic task is borne by the ma
ton in its war for liberty. Undue
optimism may prevent supreme eff
forts among persons who decline to
face facts. This is crisis more ex-
acting than any that has ever been
faced by the democracy and it
means that every person must con-
tribute the utmost toward victory
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
Astrologers read in the stars por-
tents of terrible conflict through
this year which is to bring the
world war to a climax This will
be followed by less intense war
fare through l943 and it may be
extended beyond that date. Dis
sensions between the Nazi party
and the former army chiefs will
continue to undermine. the morale
of the German people Hitler is
to- hasten his end of power through
increased egocentric manifestations
which will cause heavy losses of
men and property
Persons whose birthdate it is
have the augury. of year of
varied experiences. They should
be cautious in business and diplo-
matte in all personal contacts. !.
Children born on this day prob
ably will be highly intelligent, but
they may have many unexpected
events in the course of their ca
reers. Literature and the law will
attract these Pisces natives.

servation Japan has been sending her long grange
fishing fleets to Alaskan waters for many years.
Allen suggests that Canada and the United
States assert special rights in the North Pacific
For the last several. decades both countries have
been spending huge amounts of public funds on
fishery conservation. Surely, both countries have
special rights in regulating these waters.
Right now" says Allen, "the whole field of
international law is in state of flux. Why not
take advantage of the situation, recognize that a
worldwide agreement is impossible, and devise some
practicable system for North America, or better yet,
a hemisphere formula which will make the inter-
national law of these regions at least, synchronize
with actuates?"
