ARMADA SPLIT

In the Dutch island area, the
japanese armada which ScmC Lon
don reports estimated at 100 YES
sells already had suffered at least
81 fatal or damaging bomb hits
and was split into three sections.
The American and Dutch attack
on this armada as II steamed
through the MaCaSSar Straits was
highly effective and compared III
Importance to the battle OF Jut-
land. but trustworthy estimates oi
the action emphasized that the
enemy had not been aanihilated.
Those sources pointed out that
the American and Dutch attacks
had taken a terrible toll which
some British dispatches put at 30
coo japanese but that the Off
cially reported bomb hits included
repeated attacks on enemy vessels
and that the japanese had beer
able to land on southwestern Cele-
beS island. en- the east coast OF
Borneo and now on the west coast
of Pemangkat. where the Dutch
destroyed all facilities.
The Pemangkat landing was Of
special Importance because Japa-
nese land troops from SaraWak on
the north BCrneo coast joined in
the driy'. which was aimed at the
important town of Pontianak, 90
miles farther south.
If the Japanese can make secure
the west coast Of Borneo. they will
have a number of important island
stepping stones toward Singapore
and Java. Among these are Bang
ka and other producing islands
of great Importance to the United
Nations.
That the enemy threat in this di-
rection is of utmost gravity was
indicated by estimates that l50,-
600 Japanese troops are involved IN
the push into the Dutch islands,
where they now have pressed TO
within 320 miles Of Singapore.

While the bulk of the increased
acreage in the valley this year
probably will come from virginia,

ed by interests headed by Arthur
Hofmann. it was freely predicted
in agricultural circles Thursday that
1913 may see many farmers chang
ing over to rice from other crops
CURTAILMENT SEEN
One crop III particular may be
curtailed next year, as a result o.
lack OF facilities for processing ane
marketing Tnat crop is sugar
beets. the production of which
must for the present be limited to
the needs If existing manufacture
ing establishments. Many farmers
who had planned extensive plant
ing of beets in 1912 have been placed
in a state of uncertainty by the
present limited capacity Of Cali
fornia processing plants.
Officials of the Holly Sugar COM
pany, which controls beet sugar
manufacture in areas accessible to
the valley. still hope to erect
plant in e. Centre. although plans
have been stymied by failure to ob-
tain materials for construction Of q
building.
Rice processing facilities, on the
other hand. are readily available III
the valley. The Holman interests
have erected a 100000 mill ano
warehouse at Imperial, and all ma
chinery is expected to be in fuli
operation in time tc handle the
1912 crop. The mill will require d
minimum of $1,000 acres, and Will
have a maximum capacity Of many
additional acres.

forces may be. Many of you pres ent have Sons and Daughters in the service. The enemy has set foot on Alaskan soil by invading three of the western Aleutian Is lands, thus bring the war to our very doorstep. American lives have already been lost in the defense of Alaska The normal living condi-. tionS of the civilian population of Alaska have been greatly upset by the activities of our armed forces in Alaska; therefore, it behooves every Legionnaire to be most mind tul of his conduct while wearing the American Legion cap, for, un- der present conditions, the Ameri- can Legion emblem has a greater significance in the eyes of our citizenS-consequently, a greater re- sponsibility is upon every Legion naire.
 It is with a great deal of pride that l am able to report that the American Legion of Alaska sprang into action immediately after the attack on Pearl Harbor on Dec- smber 7th in an enueavor to stamp out the fear and hysteria that was generally prevalent, by giving aTl our support to Civilian Defense. Today the Civilian Defense of near ly every community in Alaska is headed by a Legionnaire. In near ly every instance a Legionnaire has been chosen to head the Terri torial Militia. Legionnaires are serving on draft boardS on boards for hearings for aliens taken into custody; and valuable assistance has been rendered the FBI. Full support has been given to the USO by American Legion Posts, and in some instances American Legion Halls have been and are being used by the USO; active supper. has been, and continues to be, giv- sn to the American Red Cross and sale of Defense Bonds and Stamps. Through the Legion's cooperation, many young men have been assist ed to enlist in the United States Navy, Marines and Coast Guard.
 The true value of the assistance and cooperation given the Ameri- can Legion program by the Ladies Auxiliary must never be overlooked. For it is to them that a great deal of the cedit for the accomp- lishments of the past year belong. They have been loyal and true to the Legion program.
 Tn conclusion, I wash to state that the past year has been most strenuous one; at times requiring an enormous amount of corres- pondence and work, but it has been an eventful one; and one that will forever abide in my memories with a feeling of genuine gratitude for the full support given me during the year by the other Department officers, committeeman and by all

AMER. LEGIONI I5
 AGAIN URGED TO
 KEEP UP DEFENSE
Retiring Command der Makes Final Appeal
 Auxiliary Praised

At the recent convention of the Department of Alaska, American Legion, retiring Department Con- mander J. c. Morris implored the members of the organization foI continued defense of Alaska, urged all to pepare to resist invasion o1 any enemy, cited the prominence of members in local defense set ups and praised the members oi the Auxiliary for their assistance and cooperation.
 Commander Morris, in his ad- dress, said in part;
 "Once again we meet in our De- partment Convention as cross section of the citizens of Alaska dedicated to service for God and Country under the emblem of the American Legion. Delegates and Representative from nearly every Post in the Department have trav- eled long distances by air and by boat to get here, at great sacri- flee of time and at a greater out lay of cash for transportation than a Pullman ticket on railroad would cost from Seattle, Washing ton to New York City and return. Twenty two times before have the Legionnaires of this Department gathered thus, with a certain an- xiety in our hearts-that, unless the people of the United States hark- ened to our pleadings for adequate defense of Alaska, we would some day hold our Convention under wartime conditions which would imperil our beloved Alaska, and, because of its strategic position in the North Pacific, would en- danger the security of our Nation.
 Prepared for War
 Perhaps our voice was too feeble, or perhaps we did not use it to it's best advantage; nevertheless, we do feel that, because of our efforts, our Territory and our Ma tion was better prepared for war on December 7th, 1941, than would otherwise have been the case. We have every right to that conten- ton, for the past records of our consistently worked for the defense Conventions show that we have of Alaska and our Nation. But this is no time to glorify our past ser vices. I am sure that I need not remind any of you of the duty that faces all of us. Nor need I remind you that this, our first wartime Convention, is the most important Convention in the history of our Department.
 "The resolutions that you pass at this Convention may have far reaching effects, particularly those dealing with National Defense. In the past our Conventions have al- ways been free of personal feuds or animosities and apart from all per- sonal and political prejudices or ob- sessions; only the thought of true eomradeship and of unselfish sery- ice to community, Territory and Nation has guide dus. Let us enter into the deliberations of this Con- vention in the same spirit of clear thinking and courage.
