Those Standard Oil Companies

The Stanard Oil Company of California, which has long very largely supplied the petroleum products needs of Alaska, is justifably concerned the in which the public is confusing the California corporation with the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey which has lately been in the in connec tion with synthetic rubber agreement with Ger concern
 This case having been settled by agreement and prosecution dropped there is need here to discuss it, except to mention that about the only thing in connection with the which failed to get plenty of publicity the fact that the president of the Standard Oil of New Jersey testified that the method of manufacturing synthetic rubber developed by his company's research had been offered to the Am erican Government and to various American manufac turers and turned down before any approaches were made to foreign interests.
 That, however is beside the point which is that Standard Oil of California is an entirely separate cor poration of fully individual management and that it has interest whatever in the patents involved in the issue.
 In handling the story, newspaper headlines and dio neWscasers have quite generally referred simply to Standard O or Standard" which to the public of the Pacific Northwest and Alaska, Standard Oil Company of California We hold no brief for nor have any interest in, the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey, but willing to candidy admit of an interest in Standard of California, who have not only been good clients of the newspapers of the Territory but have been right in there pitching since pioneer days for the development of Alaska.

Subie Bay

WASHINGTON, March = The
War Department communique this
morning says Gen. Douglas Mac
Arthur's headquarters in the Philip
pines report heavy blow has
been struck at Japan's armies in
the attempted conquest in the Is
lands.
The report from Gen. Macarthur
said thousands of japanese troops
are believed to have been drowned
in the surprise raid earlier in this
week by his little Air Force on
Subic Bay, north of Batan Pen
insula.
On this fighting front, big troop
laden transports were bombed and
sent to the bottom and for the
first time, Gen. Macarthur reports
the American planes met no aerial
opposition.
Secretary of War Henry L. Slim
son was guarded in his comment
about Gen. MacArthur's Air Force
inflicting heavy losses on the jap
anese raid on Subic Bay, declining
also to state the strength of the
Air Force.

WASHINGTON, March 5-Leon
Henderson today told the Senate
Defense Investigation Committee
that mot a single pound of crude
rubber is available for new tires
or retreads for upwards of 3d.
600 1000 passenger cars now owned
by the ordinary citizens of this
country.
The Director of Civilian Supplies
testified that this lis the most
significant single statistic among
the maze of details on the rubber
situation which he will offer later
before the Senate investigators.
He estimated the United Ma.
tions' requirement for the next two
years at about two million tons.
whereas 1.-The most optimistic es
innate" as to the supply from all
sources is about 100000 tons.
Henderson said that at best it Is
believed only about 100000 autos
of the present 100000 can be
kept in operation during the next
three years due to the wearing oul
of tires.

Reliable London Source
Says Cripps TO Re-
place Him

LONDON, March SAN extreme
" reliable and we'll informed po-
litical source, commenting on the
failure of recent cabinet changes to
quiet the British public's and par
criticism of the Govern
ment, said today there is every
likelihood that Sir Stafford Grips
will replace Winston Churchill SIS
Britain's Prime Minister.
This source even went so far as
to predict that Churchill will be
unseated within three months, af-
ter a bitter debate in Parliament.
1t must be emphasized, the source
said. that while Churchill is vastly
popular in the United States, he
has steadily lost strength in his
hold on the British masses since
the fall of Crete last June.
Grips, on the other hand, has
grown in stature as result of his
work as Ambassador to Russia, it
was pointed out. This fact was
recognized in his recent appolnc-
ment to the cabinet post of Lord
Privy Seal.

bombs. The announcement was
made IL hours after the bombing,
following discovery of craters.
The Army officials further state
the bombs we're dropped presum-
ably by an enemy airplane flying

a cruiser or carrier.
There were no casualties and

WASHINGTON you get
them out of official earshot, exiled
members of the old French cab
met now in Washington, are very
suspicious of what the Vichy Gov
eminent is doing in Martinique
and Guadeloupe.
Guadeloupe is less publicized
French island near Martinique, and
certain coded messages have been
intercepted indicating pro-German
activities on both islands. Sus-
picion is strong that Guadeloupe is
being used as a submarine refuel-
ing base for Nazi submarines OPP
Grating in the Caribbean.
But when the State Department
officially denied this recently,
French ex-cabinet exiles remarked:
Your State Department is still
playing the gentlemen's game of
diplomacy. You bow graciously and
believe what is told you. But
gentlemen do not know how to
deal with gangsters."
French friends warn that the
French Navy is fascist-minded, that
Admiral Robert, commanding Vichy
Martinique is pro-German; that
there will be sabotage against
French ships in Martinique harbor
if they should be threatened with
seizure by the Allies. These same
sources suggest that there be quiet
encouragement of pro-Ally groups
in the French islands who could
easily take them over.

SkIER5 LEAVE
CITY ON TRIP
TO VANCOUVER
Albert Wood, Bert Richard
son Plan Long Trek
from Tdku Lodge

Two strapping, six-foot youths
summoned to Army service, left
Juneau today with the announced
intention of skiing "as far as the
snow goes south" to report to their
home draft boards in Pasadena
California.
The adventurous skiers, Albert
Wood and Bert Richardson, both
natives of Pasadena, came here
from the Westward two weeks ago
They had been working on defense
projects in Seward and Anchorage
They plan to strike out from
Mary Joyce's lodge on Taku River
and follow fozen rivers and noun
tain trails to Telegraph Greek, then
verge over to the east and take
advantage of prevailing snow con-
ditions, expecting 10 wind up
eventually in Jasper National Park
Alberta. From there they will en-
train for their homes.
They expected to report to the
Canadian immigration Service 3;
Telegraph Creek.
The skiers travelled comparatively
light, taking feather down sleeping
bags, hatchets, knives and enough
condensed foods to last them on
the trail for several weeks.
Il offered to let them change
their minds and come back with
me to Juneau" Goodwin said, af-
ter he returned from Taku Lodge
But the boys just laughed and
said they'd see me in two or three
months. If they're rejected by the
Army they plan to return to Al
aska to make their homes"
The skier5 carried both rifles and
revolvers in case they need to live
off the land.
