NO MORE RUBBER

-Four leading war agency officials joined recently
in statement designed to clarity the facts about
the severe rubber shortage in the United States
Issued because many confusing and conflicting
stories have been circulated about rubber the state
ment points out that the shortage is extremely SER
ious and that no rubber of any kind can be spared
from now on unless directly connected with war pur
poses.
Donald M Nelson WPB Chairman; Arthur B.
Newman Rubber Coordinator; Joseph B. Eastman,
Director of the Office of Defense Transportation and
Leon Henderson, OPA Administrator, point out the
following facts
l. The Axis occupies 80 percent of the
worlds rubber producing and straddles the sea
lanes to seven percent of the rest.
3 The new armament program after Pearl Har-
Dor changed the comparatively secure position
reached by stock piling
g. Present plans for synthetic rubber encompass
the production of only 100000 tons in 1943.
a. The tires on your automobile are necessary
to the war effort whether not the tires will be

WHAT TO DO?

Much opinion has been voiced in Juneau during
the last several days concerning the remark passed
by the Juneau Civilian Defense Board at recent
meeting when Juneautes We're told to get out of
town if they have time when, and if air raid is
pending.
We see no reason for any confusion on this sub
ject. Common sense should be the guide for any
temporary evacuation such as this.
If an air raid is expected momentarily, the alarm
signal will be the 1-2 alert followed Immediately by
a stacatto sounding Of the alarm That means that
the fire horn will sound continuous string of short
blasts That means get inside off the streets; if
raid shelter right at hand go into it. If you
block from shelter get under the kitchen
table or take to the basement
That's common sense Jap pilots take joy in
machine cunning streets fun OF people
On the other hand if the l-2 alarm is sounded
and you hear stacatto alarm Immediately, your
air raid wardens will be on hand to help direct a
temporary evacuation the sounding of the alert
alone, will mean that air raid may be on the way
but it will be some time before it breaks.
Then is the time to leave town seek shelter in
the protective hills and forests around Juneau Here,
again, common sense should tell anyone that the
nearest shelter is the place to go
But by all means, evacuees should keep off of
the Glacier Highway in order not to expose them
selves in the raid comes in hurry, and in or
der not to hamper military movements.
If in the latter casa temporary evacuation
some resident is confronted with specific problem
such as evacuating an invalid it should be that per-
sons problem inform the air raid sergeant of that
district of the case so that arrangements could be
made.
But in the event that any resident has ques-
ton concerning to what section of the woods he
should flee the Civilian Defense Board is making
survey and The Empire will print the findings as soon
they available.

HOROSCOPE
"The stars incline a
but do not compel"
SATURDAY, JUNE Is

There is strong benefic aspect
today which dominates influences
that are adverse and obstructing.
1t is a date that should bring good
news, even if it is the thirteenth.
HEART AND HOME: Women
are we'll directed under this sway
which is favorable for whatever
pertains to the household. Aged
persons should beware of falls, how
ever. Old and young may easily
lose balance while this configur-
alton prevails and many accidents
are indicated. This is an aus
picious rule of the stars for mild
beginnings of romance. 1t is lucky
for letter writing, also for signing
contracts or leases.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Gains in
mineral output will be encouraging
this month and all through the
Summer. Lead, zinc and copper,
three of the most needed metals in
production for war uses, will focus
attention in western states. Old
mines long abandoned will be
worked successfully. The nations
splendid deposits of valuable ores
will add confidence to those who
have Government responsibilities in
providing supplies for industries
manufacturing munitions. Mining
experts will benefit and mining en-
gineers will be in demand.
NATIONAL ISSUES: Men and
women on the retired list of sue
cessful citizens will await impa-
tiently responses to their volunteer
letters asking for assignment to
duties for which they are well fit
ted Owing to the magnitude of
the task of allotting war work TO
civilians long delays in utilizing
splendid talents and experience will
arouse criticism. The seers fore
cast a final mobilization which will
bring to Government service many
famous persons.
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR S:
Great changes in Washington's at
titude are prognosticated as Sum-
mer advances. War demands will
cause alteration in many demo-
cratic conditions. Government con-
troll of all domestic resources and
business operations is probable. Ma
tional conservation will be assured
by rationing program which will
leave few luxuries, for now the ma
ton will have attained war basis
which hastens progress toward vic
tory.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of a year of advance
ment in Army or Navy service.
For civilians, gain in business is
foretold
Children born on this day prob
ably will have trend toward sci
entific vocation They should also

Expert Opinion
Cincinnati Enquirer)


Brgadier General Claire L. Chennault, leader OF
the American Volunteer Group, pcturesquely
known as THE Flying Tigers" is expert on the
subject of Japanese arpower if anyone is. And thus
considerable comfort is to be found in his assertion
that the Jap air force could be wiped out by an
American air force of 1000 planes
Says Brigadier General Chennault: IF the Unit
ed States will direct a small percentage OF its
present aiplane output to the Far East the Japanese
will suffer shortage of planes within the next SIX
months, if they keep losing as many planes as
they have during the last six months" He predicts
an American air offensive against the japanese with
in six months-an offensive he firmly believes will
be successful
Before the attack upon Pearl Harbor the Japan
csc air force grossly moderated by most obsery-
ers and supposedly informed military experts. This
undertaking along with the great demands for equip
ment in other theatres contributed to the relative
weakness of the Allied air strength in the far Pa
cific during the critical season when the Japs took
Hong Kong Malaga, Singapore, the Netherlands IN
dies and the Philippines with such ease
However Brgader General Chennault is in posi-
ton where he is not likely either to overrate or I'M
derrate the air strength of the foe The American
Volunteer Group though hopelessly outnumbered,
has been grips with the japanese air force in the
skies ever Burma, Thailand China, and Malaga for
a good many months. And their combat record has
been SO good that it has invited the sneers of skep-
tics.
Having done so much with few planes, Brig
adler General Chennault may be a trifle over-opti-
mistic in his belief that 1000 planes would do the
lob against the Japanese air force, but then again
he may not However the exact number is not of
great Importance The important thing is this expert
confidence that as several thousand planes
can be spared and delivered to the Pacific war zone
the decisive advantage of Japanese air strength Will
be removed and for all.

 New York, July IA. (UP)-Young Pedro Hernandez, the $1O0 fighter who developed into title con- tender, posts 8 $1,000 challenger's check with the boxing commission today-an important incident in the robust renaissance of the feather weight division. :.
 This check guarantees that II Hernandez of Brooklyn beats Lulu Costantino of New York on July 23, he will fight Champion Chalky Wright later for the title. Costantino already has posted a similar forfeit.
 Wright, the ancient but formid- able Los Angeles Negro who stopped Lou Transparent in the fifth round at Baltimore last night, soon will hand his bank slip to the commis- sion.
 In other words, the stage is being set for the first featherweight main event at Madison Square Garden in nearly five years.
