Covered All Alaska
 During her fifteen months in Alaska, Dr. Gruber covered the country thoroughly, usually select ing some typical community of each section which she would use as headquarters -until--she--h had ..ab- sorbed all possible information con- corning both people and life m each district. From Point Barrow, to Dutch Harhor, from the mouth of the kuskokwim River to the headwaters Of the Yukon, she has probably made the most detal,5d trip through Alaska made any one person.
 T see the whole territory deyel- eping around aviation as the rest. of the United States has developed around the road systems. Airfields will form the nucleus of communi- ties and see Alaska's greatest iin- portance as a stepping stone to Asia and Europe Dr. Gruber said.
 For proper development be- lieve that Alaska should work along two lines. First it must be- come self sufficient and second, it's people should link the economy of the Territory with the whole econ omyr of the United States n other words, self -sufficiency and coordination should be combined" declared the youthful economist.
 Dr. Gruber has visited practically every miRlary Establishment in Alaska and has talked with both officers and men at lonely out posts. 'fThe heroism of our fliers in the Aleutians cannot be over estimated. In my opinion every man on duty in the islands should be awarded the Congressional Me- dal From the moment they take off the flyers out there are in combat flying and the work they are doing is splendid,'' she said.
 Censorship regarding Alaska must be lifted and I believe it will be- Dr. Gruber. said.
 Small, petite and amazingly youthful looking to have accomp- lished what she has as student, traveller and writer, Dr. Gruber expresses herself as having fallen completely in love with Alaska, its people and its breath-taking beauty
 Alaska A frontier of the mind as well as in actuality and it is my feeling that the right

type of settler can build a new and finer world in this country. Re- quirements for settlers must be courage, vision, sweat and enthu- siasm," she concluded
 Dr. G1uber plans to leave Ju- neau for Sitka tomorrow and after spending a, short time in South east Alaska will proceed to Wash- ington, D. c. Following presenta- ton of her confidential report she hopes to use some of the, material she. has gathered for articles and books. ;.

control Alaska. Through them move the fish, gold and fura that Ameri- ca buys and back through them move the food, oil and manufactured goods that Alaska requires.
 To what extent the Army and Navy regard Alaska as a base for offensive measures has never been divulged. Dutch Harbor is great deal closer to Tokyo than Tokyo is to Honolulu. The Japanese capital is, in fact, in easy range of a bombing plane.
 Whether We merely defend A laska or use 1t as a springboard toward Japan would seem one of the major questions Of current mili- tary strategy.

To make it easier for taxpayers to meet the increased taxes required by the National Defense Program, the Treasury Department is offer ing for sale two series of notes, both dated August 1, 1941, and matur- ing August l, 1943.
 In January Of each year two new series will be provided so that a tax payer can always purchase notes during the entire year in which he is receiving his income for use in payment of taxes due the following year. The reason for the two-year note is to permit a taxpayer, if he SO desires. to begin saving in Janu- ary of one year and continue through that year to save for his taxes due the following year.
 All notes are sold at par and ac- erued interest. When presented in payment of income taxes they will be received at par and accrued in- terest up to and including the month in which such taxes are paid. Interest will not accrue be- yond the maturity of the notes. If not presented in payment of income taxes, they will be redeemed for cash under certain specified eondi- tiOns at the purchase price paid for the notes. In other words, the taxpayer, if he redeems the notes for cash. gets back just the amount he paid.
 Complete information about these Treasury notes will be found in a Treasury Department Circular avail able at local banks, Federal Re- serve banks and branches, or Treas ury Department, Washington, D. c.

The largest, richest area of un- developed territory in the world, not excepting the interior of Africa and South America, is a stake in the war between Japan, the United States and Great Britain.
 Inhabitants of the eastern sea- board states and even of such huge areas as Texas and California find il hard to grasp the immensity of Alaska and British Columbia and the Yukon and Northwest Terri tories.
 Here are great prizes for an ex- banding, overpopulated nation such as Japan. They rival and possibly excel the ancient teeming lands of the Far East to whiech the Nippon nation so far has directed her en- ergies. They constitute a great frontier, comparable to that which American pioneers found when they invaded the West.
 Nothing is so erroneous as the general impression that Alaska and western Canada are bleak, inhos- pitable regions of perpetual ice and snow. The warm waters of the Jap anese current moderate the temper ature, giving much of the coastal area a climate similar to that of the northern United States.
 Inland, the winters are severe. But old timers comment that once the temperature drops to zero it doesn't make much practical differ ence if it goes to 40 to 50 below. At Fairbanks, near the Arctic Circle, life goes on comfortably and nor mally the year round.
 Difficult Defense
 The riches of this land consists of fish, timber, various minerals, and furs. Under American ownership the tourist attractions are valuable. A land-hungry nation like Japan could develop incalculable agricul- ture and dairy resources.
 Both the conquest and defense of Alaska and western Canada present problems probably unique in war fare.
 Most of the population is confined to a few small, widely separated settlements. Outside of these is wild erness. Alaska has about one inhab- itant to every ten square miles and nearly half the population is Indian. The vast sprawling area of Canada's Northwest Territories is virtually uninhabited.
 Strategic Position
 To protect key positions in Alas ka the Navy has established power. full bases at Dutch Harbor, situated on the distant Aleutian island 0i Unalaska, and at KodiaK and Sitka The Army has hastily constructed airfields at Anchorage. Fairbank: and Annette Island.
 This capital of Alaska, which has a population of only 5,74s, Is vir. tually defenseIess in itself How. ever, it is bulwarked by rugged Bar anof Island, where the Navy has constructed a base

ALASKA AND THE WAR
