Ladd Field May eB Post For V-Mail
Ladd Field has been selected

....Ladd Field has been selected tentatively as the V-Mail station for all of Alaska, First Lieut.. Paul J. Ashlock, post censor, an- nounced If the War Dept. ap- proves this site, equipment for microfilming V-Mail will be sent here and installed in the base ment of NCO No. IA. Personnel to operate the equipment also would come to the post.
 Lieut.. Ashlock said that an of ficer from Washington recently visited this post for the purpose of determining if 1t would be a suitable location for the Alaskan V-Mail station. His decision was favorable, Lieut.. Ashlock report ed, and he recommended Ladd Field to the War Dept.
 V-Mail is the new fast service for dispatch of mail to and from American forces overseas. Let ters written on special V-Mail letter sheets are photographed on microfilm and shipped to their destinations by the most expeditions transportation avail able. Since microfilm doesn't take as much space as regular mail, its use saves valuable car go space for vital war materials.
 V-Mail letter forms now are available in very community and on every rural mail route in the U. S., the War Department an- nounced The forms have not yet been received at Ladd Field.
 If and when V-Mail station is established here, letters writ ten by Ladd Field soldiers will be microfilmed and sent by air mail to Seattle without use of airmail stamp. Such letters then would go by train to their destin ations. V-Mail sent under airmail stamps would go all the way by airmail. The Army Postal Serv- ice has urged that all persons writing to members of the armed forces outside the United States use V-Mail.

USE THE LONE HONOR

AFTER ONE opponent has
shown great length in one or more
suits. II is sound to count on his
partner for outstanding length in
any other suit or suits. He is the
one to guard yourself against
when you are running the trumps
and want to make sure OF not los
any tricks in that suit. Ordinarily.
II you hold the three top honors,
with two of them in one hand OPP
posite the single one, you will take
the first trick where you have the
brace, especially If you are able
TO fnesse in either direction. But,
with one opponent indicated as
more likely TO have the missing
trump length, 1t is best TO take the
first trick in the hand which plays
before him. so you leave a couple
OF honors over his possible hold
ing.
