 Although a military highway is new being constructed by che War Department from St John 10 Alas ka, iu my opinion it Is stiIl necess= ary that che President be author ized to proceed with the eonstruc= ton of a direct highway connection between the west coast and Alaska Accordingly, 1T is recommended that H.

THANKFUL FOR MEN WHO
 LOVE FREEDOM

Next Tursday. November, 26. we observe the first wartime Thanksgiving Day in a quarter of a century When we think of some of the reverses, the tragedies, the sorry, the broken lives that war has brought it seems somehow uniting to be thankful in the general scheme of things. But these are superficial reflections. In retros- pect, We have more to be thankful for than in normal peace time years for the tide has turned and after a year of united effort we have reach ed the point in production and man power to take the offensive-a suc- cessful offensive. a driving, deter mined, crushing offense which means only complete victory.
 We can be thankful for the vic- tories at Midway, in the Coral Sea. in the Solomons, now in North Af- rica and at other points in this global war. We can be thankful for successes on a dozen fronts-the front line, the production line, the home defense line and many others.
 But, most of all, it seems to us.

we can be thankful that we have n.t lost that love Of freedom-that conviction in the heart of every lrue American that death IS far better than slavery.
 Hitler's first attempted blow at our morale was to try and sell us lhe idea that We were a deeadent people. We were soft. easy a push over. he told us. because Of too good living. But that was before Wake island. before Guam, before Bataaus before today on the fronts of the world he finds clean, vigorous young Americans moving forward to victory as his own knees tremble.
 If for nothing else, We can be thankful on his wartime Thanks giving Day that We still breed mem men who rank freedom for them selves. their families and their fel- low man above all else in this world
 The spirit born in 1776 has never waYered. The lads of II and '42 were just as eager to spring into action: just as determined to keep unbroken that sacred line defend ing the American principle of free dom as were the boys of '76. 1872. t9S and IT. How gloriOusly they are defending it today is an epic page in American history.
 Let us give thanks that We breed men; real men.

FOR ANOTHER 40 YEARS

Today The Wrangen Sentinel, Alaska's oldest continuously pub lished newspaper. modestly takes bow. On this date 40 years ago November 20, lso2-the first issue of The Sentinel was issued to waiting world under the editorship or A. Y. R. Snyder. Several editors have been at the helm since then, but The Sentinel has never missed week since, either because of them or despite them.
 Whether there's an editor a. round or not, the venerable old Sen tiuel press starts turning out pap CTS on Friday. It's been doing 1t, boy and man, for 40 years and no whippersnapper young editor can stop it. It has it's days off like the strongest union man and refuses ut terIy 10 turn a wheel. The only time on record that il moved on Monday was December s, last, the day after Pearl Harbor when it produced its first war extra. Wars and such things are pretty small events in the life Of The Sentinels aging press. It's seen 'em come and go and told the world about it weekly for 40 years so another war is only more grist for it's crunehing jaws. However, when We posted Congress war declaration on the fly wheel. along with the bulletin on Pearl Harbor. the old press reached out for the oil can and went to work, and never squeaked a word about over time
 Coincident with The Sentinel's natal day, they are officially open ing the Alaska highway today. War Secretary Stimson, it is assumed, having looked at the calendar and noting it was The Sentinefs birth cay decided 10 commemorate the oc- casion with a road opening There fore, We are sorry to announce that Acting Gov. .. L. Bartlett, Gen. James 4. O'Conner of the Army Northwest Command, Gen. Simon B.. Buckner of the Alaska Defense Con- mand, Canadian officials and sev- eral other national figures are not here today for The Sentinels birth day They are attending the road opening ceremony near Lake Klu- ane. When we took this matter lp with our venerable press, we got this sharp rejoiner: D,
 Haven't those Army boys built 1.600 miles of road in six months through some Of the toughest coun- try on earth when a lot of us old timers thought it couldn't be done? Feed in those papers boy. and be sure you have a story about it on the front page" n
 Thus. on it's 10th birthday. The Sentinel looks out on a rapidly changing northland and finds that view is good. The Alaska it has plugged for for nearly half a cen- tury is moving to the fore, even if it took a war to do it. The old press reaches out for the oil can and grOwls: :,

 The Alaska Highway
 Two events of considerable imz portanee occurred during The past week concerning the highways to Alaska. one now under construction and the other proposed to be buIl between Prince George and White horse by my bill H. R. 2s4 intro duced on June 8.
 As to the highway now being built. Secretary of War Srimsan an uounced that II Is now open from end 10 end and that the formal opz ening ceremonies would take place November 20.
 As 10 the proposed highway be- tween Prince George and White horse, the most encouraging news received since the bill authorizing construction was introduced is in the form of a letter addressed by the Secretary of the Interior to Chairman Cartwright of the House Committee on roads. in which the Secretary expressed his approval of the bill and recommended that the President be authorized to proceed with the construction The Seere- tarys letter is of such importance that two paragraphs of it are quot ed

Rationing of food products in AL aska is out. according to announce ment this week by Rupert Elmer son, OPA regional administrator who has charge of territories and island possessions for OPA. Taking a tip from Delegate Dimond. who had said that food rationing was silly for Alaska due Co the fact that food for the Territory can be ra- tioned at it's source in the States, Emerson said:
 We feel the administrative dif- faculties and expense of fitting the food ratiOning program 10 Alaska with its vast area and sparse popu- latiOn would over balance the good resulting from an extension Of the program to the Territory. This is particularly true in view of the fact that curtailment of food supplies in Alaska would release only q negli- gible quantity Of food for consump- tion elsewhere.
 Said Delegate Dimoud: T think it shows all intelligent decision and keen realization of conditions in Alaska"
 $
 The first land vehicle in history to reach Alaska by road from the States rolled across the new Alaska military highway today near Lake Kluane and a chapter of Alaska life was officially closed. Alaska is now connected with continental T. s. by road True. for the present il will be devoted exclusively to Army ser vice but ultimately it and other routes like it will be lined with pri- vate traffic. Possibilities for the more westerly route are looking up. (See Dimond's cc.umn in today's Sentinel.)
 4a*&
 The spruce outlook is brighter. The first raft of Alaska spruce, 166,0 board feet. has been taken out by the Walter Spruce Comp any at Tuxekan Pass and is on its way south. It's the beginning of the program to take Alaska spruce for mueh-needed airplane and other construction. There are 40 men in the Tuxekan camp. Other camps will get under way when men and equipment are available; biggest problem is man power One of the camps is established on Kosciusko island. west of Wrangell, but pro- duction is delayed for lack of men and equipment
 Some legislative rumblings are getting around that some of the members of the forthcoming Legis- lature are working on the idea of having q short session. They call it pass the appropriation bill and go home" It's a splendid thought, but nothing will come of it. The appro- priation bill will be passed as us- ual in the dying or overtime hours of the. 1943 session, after the boys and girls have gotten in their full 60 days at s15 per day. plus mile age.
 Don't be surprised to see some new taxation coming out of the next session. Some new revenue raising bills nearly got through last session. Those who have been count ing the noses and their support prior to election think it's a cinch this time. So-called Governor sup port has increased in the legisla- tive halls.
