STRAND

Clark Gable rises to his full sta- ture !n role of contemporary war correspondent in the Far East in somewhere I'll Find You" CO., starring Lana Turner currently at the Strand Theater. The story IS as timely as the. latest war commu- nique, the direction by Wesley Ruggles, distinguished for pictures of subtle power, strongly emphasizes the drama and the romance, not overlooking the humor of many sit nations. Appearing in support ct the co-stars are Robert Sterling, Patricia Dane, Tamara Shayne, Lee Patrick, Reginald Owen, Charles Dmgle, Leonid iKnskey, Diana Lewis ana Sara Haden. Gable and Sterling appear as brothers, both ace war correspondents who return from Europe in 1941 to discover that their editor, Dingle, is blissfully unaware of the danger that looms In the Pacific. They manage to get sen sational story published but lose their jobs.
 Returning to his former quarters in Greenwich Village, New York. where he roomed with an artist and wife portrayed by Owen and Miss Patrick, respectively, Gable en- counters Miss Turner who has taken his old room. She, too. is a reporter and they have met before, but tnis occasion touches oil the first spark of their coiorful romance. However, she is already engaged to Sterling, which complicates the situation. The girl is suddenly assigned to cover the scene in Indo China. Drama enters abruptly when word comes that she is missing. Gable and Sterling arrive in the danger zone shortly before December T. they find Lana has not been kidnapped, or injured, but instead is conducting Chinese children to places Of safety. Selected short subjects complete the program,

BY WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY

Here Is another hand showing a common situation where a defender, playing second to a trick, must jump up with an honor that the third hand can kill.
 On the first trick North wins the king of hearts with the ace, then leads low diamond. East must play the king.
 The reason for this play is East's precise holding of three cards in cluding the 10 and king, or queen, under the ace-jack-nine. From the lead it can reasonably be inferred that North lacks the other high

SERVICE MEN EXEMPTED FROM MAKING MINING
 CLAIM ASSESSMENTS

Men in military service are now exempted from making their mining claim assessments. according to the Soldiers and Sailors Civil Act of 194Oa but in order to take advant- age of the provisions of the act claim holders must file. or cause to be filed, a notice that they have en- tered military service and that they desire to hold their mining claims, it is emphasized by B. D. Stewart, Territorial Commissioner of Mines.
 The text of the act, exempting service men reads:
 Sec. 565 Mining claims; require ments suspended
 CD The provisions of section 1924 of the Revised Statutes of the Unit ted States (section 28 of Title 30) !, which require that on each mining claim located after May 10, 1872, and until patent has been issued therefore not less than $10O worth of labor shall be performed or im- provements made during each year, shall not apply during the period of his serYice. or until six months after the termination of such service, or during any period of disqualification because of wounds or disability in cured in line of duty. to claims or interests in claims which are owned by a person in military service and which have been regularly located and recorded. No mining claim or any interest in a claim which is owned by such a person and which has been regularly located and re- corded shall be subject to forfeiture by nonperformance of the annual assessments during the period Of such service or of such hospitaliz- ation.

Pushes Govt WarRiSk
 For Territory

WASHINGTON-Delegate Dimond appeared before the Senate Banking and Currency Committee a few days ago when the bill, S. 219S, ITO pro. vide for the financing of War In- suranee Corporation, to amend the Reconstruction Finance Corporation Act as amended, and for other pur- poses, was before that Committee for hearing. The head of the Feeder al Loan Agency, the Honorable Jesse Jones, who is also Secretary of Com merce, explained the scope of the insurance, saying that the press rel leases issued on the subject were, in effect, insurance policies. It wiIlI be remembered that the first press release stated that the insuranceI would cover only property in the Continental United States" The second press release of December 22 enlarged the geographical scope of the insurance so as to cover also Alaska, Hawaii, the Philippine Is. lands, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. However, the benefits of this insurance may be had only for damage to or destruction of build ings, structures and personal pro perty, including goods, growing crops and orchards and does not cover accounts, bills. currency, debts, evidence of debt, money, notes, securities. paintings and other ob- iects of art. Moreover, the property so insured is insured only as to pro- perty situated in the States, terri tories and possessions and, therefore, does not cover any marine insurance whatever.
 Mr. Dimond urged upon the Com mittee the adyisability of taking care of all such insured property while on the high seas between any territory or possession and any other of the several states, pointing out the condition which existed in Alas ka whereby the steamship companies had been granted an increase of rates amounting to 45% without any guaranty that there would not be further increases. He urged upon the Committee that the same con- alterations which led to the setting up of this war risk insurance as to property within the States and territories and possessions would support in even greater degree the granting of similar insurance as toI property on the high seas intransit between States, territories and pos- sessions where there is every needI of such protection. Hon. Samuel W. King, Delegate from Hawaii, made similar representations with respect to the Territory of Hawaii and also asked that securities and money be insured, as well as property which is now covered by such insurance.
 A similar bill, H. R. 6382, is pending in the House, but it seems likely that no action will be taken on it until the Senate bill is passed by the Senate.

DIMOND OPPOSES SENATOR WALLGREN'S
 FISHERIES BILL

WASHINGTON - The so-calied Wallgren Fisheries bill which is widely opposed in Alaska. as well as in Washington by Delegate Dimond and in part by Dr. Ira N. Gabriel son, Director of the Fish and Wild life Service, Department of Interior, has not yet received the usual De- partmsntal report. No action has been taken on it by the Senate or by the Senate Committee on Commerce to which it was referred. The most highly objectionable provision, in MT. Dimond's opinion, is that which would make fish traps and fish trap sites vested interests and make those vested interests a monopoly of the present owners.

Alaska Guard
 Law Signed
 By President

WASHINGTON Congress has en- acted and the president has signed the military code bill for the Terri tory of Alaska. This law exempts from militia service all persons eX- empted by the laws of the United States and in addition judges of the civil courts of the Territory and the members and officers of the Alaska Territorial Legislature. The Alas ka National Guard is defined in this measure in complete harmony with the Federal law. The Military Code Act makes the Governor com mander of the Alaska National Guard when not in actual Federal service. The Act further authorizes the President to appoint an Adult ant General of the Territory who must be a citizen of the Territory; ratifies and confirms the organiza- tion of the existing National Guard unit which has heretofore been in= ducted into active Federal service, and last, the Act authorizes the or ganization of a Territorial Guard in Alaska under such regulations and discipline as the Secretary of War may prescribe, and further authorizes the Secretary of War to issue for the use of such Territor ial Guard, upon requisition of the Governor such arms and equipment as can be spared by the War Depart ment. Enlistment in the Territorial Guard, as in the Alaska National Guard, is purely voluntary.
