Negro Workers Are
In the Spotlight

To all colored workers in war
industries the following sugges-
tons might be helpful not only now,
but in the future:
/. Do report to work every day
and on time.
2. Do refrain from gambling
and drinking, especially while
on the job. The crapshooters
and whiskey heads are not
only running their own
chances, but also the oppor'
tunities of a whole group.
8. Do watch your personal ny
giene, dress, clothes, etc.
A. Do keep a cool head and avoiC
conflicts with white workers
on the job.
A few of our workers arr
going around with chips OF
their shoulders looking fol
trouble and sure enough they
will find it, in due time.
5. Do give every job assignment
the very best you have in yor
and do not overwork the dis
elimination angle and use il
to cover up incompetence.

Race Is ION the Spot"
The words of the management
representative are still fresh in my
ears:
1--WE are not regarding these
problems as distinct from those
of any other workers in the
plant. of course, we have our
problems with white workers
along the same line. But your
group is under the spotlight
and it must be extremely care
full not to spoil its chances for
complete indignation both now
and after the war is over

JAPAN VS. SIBERIA?

Movements in Japan's political and military spheres in the last several weeks point more and more to- ward an invasion of Siberia by the Npponese.
 The occupation of the Western Aeutians if the Japs intend to move on Russia was important piece of strategy. The setting up of small bases in the outer Alaskan waters for submarine opera tion is necessary step toward cutting any supply line to Russia from the United States along this route
 Similarly, the sudden resignation of Japan's For eign Minister Shgrnori Togo leaves the Jap military clique in the person of Premier Hideki Too more than control of imperial policy, free to thrust at Siberia at any moment Togo, a known expon- ent of neutral attitude toward the Soviets stated in sinister note that he resigning flor personal reasons"
 As ambassador in Moscow, Togo the man who laid the groundwork for Japans treaty of neutral ity with Russia in the spring of 1941 only few weeks after the Nazs invaded Russia Recalled from Moscow last October to take the foreign portfolio in Minister Tojos streamlined military dictatorship cabinet, Togo billed in Jap propaganda the who could and would preserve amable rela- tions along the northern border.
 Later dispatches from the Pacific war zone told of a lessening of Jap attacks in many fields and hnted that the Nippon troops were being assembled for and important thrust Latest accounts indicate that the time is at hand and that the Japs will move Russia in cooperating with their Nazi Axis partners.
 Japan's commander n-chief in China has stated that "the East Asia is about to take an import ant step in cooperation with the European war"
 Many Jap troops reported in Manchukuo near the Siberian border
 The fall of Staingrad is in the offing and the time to strike is ripe It is believed by many ob- servers that the fury of the German attack Stall ic beiob hv tI,a faot Russian bastion will be the signal for the Jap thrust at Siberia.

Japs Block Aid to Russia
Philadelphia Record)

Increasingly omnous signs from the Far East point toward Japan opening second front against Russia in Siberia and the Maritime Provinces. In addition the latest communque from General MacArthurs headquarters tells of a mysterious slump in Japan's air strength in the Southwest Pacific. Two Jap bases, Lac and Baku in the Solomons, were bombed without opposition
 And Jap land forces are not fighting anywhere in large numbers in places where they were not en- gagged last December '. Only in China large forces fighting and they withdrawing probably at faster rate than intended under Chinese prod ding.
 The news from Russia continues bad The Ger mans at the gates of Stalingrad. They claim to have reached the Volga northwest of Stalingrad, and reports of German-Jap agreement have said that the Japs will attack when the Germans reach the Volga.
 It may be Japan will decide that is the time to strike-as Italy struck France the day after the Germans crossed the Aisne their way to Paris.
 We do not know whether the Jap will be against Russia against India, or against both
 But We do know that if the Japs attack Russia from the east Jap bases in Aeutians could block American help to Russia across the Pacific
 It's only 170O miles from Dutch Harbor to Russian bases on Kamchatka Peninsula where bombers could refuel on their way to Japan
 But blocking that air route are the Jap bases now on Attu and Kiska and Agattu.
 The Japs prevented sending help to the Phil pplneS by taking our stepping stones in the South Pacific, Guam and Wake.
 We must not let them use the same tactics in the North Pacific by holding the stepping stones in the Aleutians
 Chinese recapture of territory in Chuhsen has given us bases from which we can bomb Japan now If that is possible why wait until we get closer bases in Russia?
 We didn't have vadivostok for base when we bombed Toko last April
 Apparently we unable to open second front in Western Europe now to help Russia.
 But we can take the initiative against Japan by bombing her from Chinese bases, and we can clear the Pacific route to Russia by retakng the Aleutians
 Let the United States take the offensive for once without waiting to where and when Japan will strike

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 21

Benefic aspects dominate today which should be most fortunate for industry, although accidents may be more numerous than usual. Un- certain war news is indicated.
 HEART AND HOME: This is a month of upheavals in social life, or drastic changes in the mode of living. Evil portents seen in the conjunction of Mars and Neptune on Neptunes progressed place seem to presage- many losses of our fighting men who must face severe dangers and encounter much trea- chery. There is a sign that prom ises good news from sons and h,ls- bands who are fighting in foreign lands. It is wise to adhere to great hopes that prevent fears from gain- ing influence.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Heavier taxes will affect buying by those who derive incomes from long time
 
 investments, but merchants will profit from the spending of wage earners. Ten per cent tithing now will be generally approved and the necessary expenditures for war will inspire real sacrifices among citi- zens of every class. Imitation will be more difficult to overcome as the Autumn advances.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Women's efficiency in the auxiliary armed forces will be so emphatically dem onstrated that both the Army and Navy will enlist many more than the numbers first authorized by Congress. Women who have suc-

SUNDAY. SEPTEMBER 20


 Benefic aspects dominate today which is read as fortunate for our men in uniform. This is an aus picious day for spiritual awareness.
 HEART AND HOME: The stars stimulate mental effort and bring to American families added faith in the high destiny of the nation. Through spiritual force manifested in physical power the democracies are to be saved, occultists declare. Great discoveries in relation to the persistence of personality after death will be comforting to many persons who sustain bereavements through war casualties. As in the First World War, many reports of extraordinary visions and marvel ous experiences on battlefields will awaken interest.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Certain evil portents presage the influence of greed among men who seek profits in war contracts. Although many revelations of profitecring have been made, new scandals will be discovered. The line between the methods of corporations long successful and those of ambitious imitators who carry sharp prac- | tioae ha1,a,,J tha ,,c,,al Ii,,oit rxri11 ha clearly drawn by the legal profes- sion, although it may be impercep- tible to the average citizen. NATIONAL ISSUES: Continued discussion of problems relating to rubber and gasoline will be dis turbing to the people most inter ested, but the stars seem to prom ise that American resourcefuiness will supply much dreaded lacks. Although many sacrifices ultimately will be caused by the exigencies of war there are no omens of such serious food shortages and such grave needs as those that beset the people of Europe and Asia. Re- adjustments that relieve passing crisis are indicated for a people noted for mobility as well as other inherited traits produced by pion- ger necessities
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR s Again surprises are prophesied in the aggressive plans of the United Nations. Sagacious leaders will show remarkable wisdom as they loperate with unity that must over whelm enemies at many points. India is to focus even more atten- ton than in recent weeks. Sudden death by native who has gained great power is prognosticated. Too tardy concessions by Britain are indicated by todays configuration
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of ex- acting duties and unusual exper- fences. The utmost caution in word and act is recommended.
 | Children born on this day prob ably will be ambitious, talented and successful. They will pursue any profession that they choose with enthusiasm which hastens advance ment.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1942-09-19

ceeded in business and the learned professions now will prove their ability as officers who know how to command. Equal rights demands will be heard by the legislators who long have been deaf to appeals from women citizens of the United States.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR s : Since the United Nations have proved able to win by clever strat- egy and amazing surprises, they will succeed in offensive tactics, as- trologers predict. Changes in lead ership will unify armies and navies in tremendous movements that at first may be obstructed by enemy forces. Submarine menaces will not be overcome until after a ter rible record of losses, the seers forecast. Our air strength will be greatly increased, by the end of the month.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of good fortune, provided vigilance in busi- ness matters, large and small, is exercised.
 Children born on this day prob ably will have high aspirations and definite talents. They will be im- aginative and able to work out bril- liant careers.
