You have heard or read the Presidents message of June 12 that effective today and extending to June 30 every red blooded Ameri- can should search his home and premises from attic to cellar for discarded rubber. The public has choice of making outright donation or selling scrap rubber for one cent a pound. Entire profit from dona- tions. etc will be divided between the Red Cross, USO and Navy Re-. lief. We will bear cost of collection and accounting"
 The scrap rubber drive was start ed throughout the nation this week following the Presidents request.
 Old tires, rubber boots, etc. are requested.
 Skippy Hibner, young son of Lyle Hibner, became the first to capital ize in the rubber drive. Skippy turn ed in 40 pounds of rubber at Vans Garage today and collected 40 cents.

Action Continues
 AleutianS After
 Japs Make Landing
CBy Associated Press5


 Japs landed on Attu and Kiska in the Aleutian Island chain last week end and the Navy Department an nouneed that action between Che Japs and U. s. forces had resulted in the sinking of one enemy vessel and the damaging of five others. The action is still continuing. it was re- ported
 The Navy department announce ment said the Japs landed on Attu. westernmost tip of the Aleutians and put ships into Kiska harbor. Later they were repelled Overcast weather has hampered air operations.
 Meanwhile. Tokyo propaganda broadeasting station claimed new beachheads had been established. This was discounted by a statement from War Secretary Stimson who said that losses inflicted on the Jap anese in the Pacific had temporarily but substantially reduced the threat of an attack on the Pacicif coast He added that the Japs have thus far made only a very smalT landing in the Aleutian islands off Alaska but he stressed that bad weather obscured developments in the north Pacific and that reports were gen orally incomplete While he main tained information on the earlier Midway battle was not yet complete he said after three days fighting the enemy fleet was scattered all over the Pacific ocean,
 Official statement issued by tbe Navy department said:
 'Information just received by the navy department is to the effect that the Japanese have made land ings on small scale on Attu island at the extreme tip Of the AIeutian arehiptlego and Japanese ships have been reported in the harbor of Kis- ka island in the Rat group
 Japanese operations in the AIeu- tian area are still in progress. ac- cofdlng to information received al- though continuing army and navy aircraft attacks havv forced them to retire from populated regions of the islands.
 Attacks by army and navy for ces In the area against these oper- ations are continuing.
 Weather conditions in tbase ont- lying islands have precluded air search operations until within the last 24 hours"
 Announcement of the landing on Attu follows by ten days the Jap- anese air raid on Dutch Harbor of June 3,
 Qualified army and navy sources In the national capital today said they regarded Jap activity at Attn and kiska islands in Alaska as nothing to arouse deep concern
 The temporary loss of such iso- lated posts is believed to fignre among the calculated risks" which Admiral King. fleet comander-in- chief, has said the high command has to assume.
 Jap landings in the Aleutians Were interpreted in offiical sources as having two probable obiectives- to block the U. S. from further at- Jacks on Japan proper through air bases established In Siberia and to prepare for a direct assault on Si- oeria in an effort to help Hitler il, ms campaign against Russia.
 Delegate Anthony J. Dimonl stressed that the Japs should b, driven entirely from the islands as IT they establish a spear head ther, they can attack U, s, shipping lines to the Westward.

WRANGELL NURSE LANDS BIG STEELHEAD WITH
 PICNIC CORKSCREW

Even Ripley and his be lieve it or not" never found a better one than this, and Miss ROsalie WOzny, nurse at Bishop Rowe hospital, knows what the thrill of a lifetime is.
 Sunday at the Elks picnic at Big Bay on Zarembo is land Miss Wozny, who still didn't believe everything she had heard about fishing in Alaska, was idling along in skiff on the stream near the picnic grounds. Water was shallow and the steelheads were filming in the vicinity. Curious but bold Miss Wozny happened to have a cork screw in the boat with her. Grasping it firmly, she struck at one of the steel heads.
 Fisherman's good luck. The curved barb sank into the fish just above the tail. Elks are still debating who was the most excited-Miss Wozny or the steelhead-but the nurse put up the best battle and she landed her trophy by main force, haul ing about 15 pounds of fight ing steelhead into her skiff and with a corkscrew, MT. Ripley.
 Elks reported picnic great success in other ways, too. Weather was perfect and a fine outing was enjoyed. Transportation was provided by A. R. Brueger, we'll known packer, who put the ARB No. 10 at the disposal of the lOdgemen. SAs sh ss sA q, 4. < d, &s < d.
