AN OPEN LETTER

The following letter printed recently in a newspaper in the States It written by a soldier stationed at Juneau. For obvious reasons his name is being withheld:
 This is open letter to the outside the four teenth day of July, 1942
 News of the is very scarce in this area even though enemy action is not far away
 This knowledge of enemy action being near is common to all of here in Alaska, but there seems to be nothing any of us can do about it.
 We here in Alaska are not towards
 We do not intend to run for cover when and if the time does come
 Men, women and children are all in the same boat and are going to be the job when the enemy comes
 "To those of you the outside whose homes are far away from any battle zone to those of you whose lives are not affected in any manner due to this war, and to those of you who just don't care, this letter will not much, but to those red booded Americans who ready to die for their country and countless others want to say this:
 Before this war is won Alaska will make history
 Tt will be the bright spot in the heart of every American.
 Alaska will in any event through with fly ing colors.
 Alaska is determined to prevent the further spread of lost causes
 She is more than ever before determined to nre- vent the enemy from gaining any other footholds on any part of Alaskan soil
 You on the outside must to it that help is sent to without further delay, and this time it can be said, and said very loud that we need help and asking for it.
 We even ask well-we urge you to write to your Congressman, Senator, to the President heard from-a fellow named Roosevelt I'm struck
 This is urgent"
The Daily Alaska empire., 1942-08-07
WE WANT TO KNOW

Although the new information policy recently announced by Elmer Davis the new director of the Office of War Information, sounded fine, MT. Davis already has lost his first battle to give the people who are fighting this war little knowledge of what is happening
 This was the effort to inform the people of the proceedings in the trial by military commission of the alleged Na1 saboteurs. The Army still has the final say about what may be released. This was proved in this first example.
 Yet MT Davis has given his pledge that the news that would give aid and comfort to the enemy is the only news that will be withheld. That's some thing. This is peoples war" he said in his first announcement as owI director, ito win the war the people should know much about it they can"
 But the Army and Navy to have the final word in deciding whether military may be leased to the public. That much made clear by MT. Davis when he said that the question of what constituted aid and comfort to the enemy in the way of information to be up to the decision of the armed forces.
 It has been all too easy for Army and Navy authorities to lead themselves to believe that prac tically all military gives aid and comfort to the enemy. Even when there is only remote pos sibity, the Army Navy is in position to play the game safe. By releasing practically no military news the military authorities may be cer- tain that vital information is reaching the enemy. enemy
 But at the same time, if this is the peoples war, the people aren't going to fight it unless they know something about it.
 There seems to be attitude among censors and others in on the know that the people haven't any right to know what's going A member of Con- gress who recently gave speech in Juneau ex- pressed this point of view when he said there a lot of things going on that the people don't know anything about and haven't any damned right to know anything about"
 Perhaps what he meant to say was that the people could not be told certain things because the infor- nation would be helpful to the enemy. The people have right to know everything that's going on

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 but do not compel"
SATURDAY, AUGUST 8

Mars in promising aspect domi- mates today which should be for tunate for the United Nations. There is sign most encouraging to the people of the western hem isphere.
 HEART AND HOME: This should be lucky day for girls who meet new associates in their war service. The stars encourage intuition and understanding rather than love at first sight. sAmong women of all ages there may be tendency to criticise men who are in authority. It is most imperative that loyalty to the Government should be un- deviating, for there is a sign that warns of dangerous fifth column activity in high places. Q
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Railroads come under a fortunate planetary direction which seems to indicate splendid achievement in transporta- tion and future prosperity that is as important in postwar days as present intensive service is to war needs. Reorganizations and com binations Of the great transcontin- ental lines are prognosticated. Those who apprehend peacetime losses have wrong impression, the seers declare.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Astrologers foresee a turn in the war reports which cause severe arraignment of certain Government policies Presi- dent Roosevelt and his Cabinet may lose popularity for a time. Differences of opinion that seem to separate Government aims from those of the commanders of the armed forces are presaged, although victory is more and more a cer- tainty. However, heavy losses will cause widespread mourning
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS Russia, with Mars elevated and Neptune in the tenth house, will have some difficulties affecting Soviet leaders, but the fighting thousands will add to their great fame for determined resistance to the Axis powers. Changes in trea- ties and alliances will take place this month. These will cause sur prise and anxiety in certain quar- ters and will be of peculiar inter est to the United States The out look for Russia is good through the last quarter of this year.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of prog ress in business or in the armed forces. An unexpected event will cause temporary annoyance.
 Children born on this day prob- ably will have good brains and wide interests. They will be ambitious and successful, although they will meet obstacles that test their abiliy.
