That's one of the principles upon which this gov- ernment is founded
 This is a free country, and in such country where the government must depend upon public confidence it is vital that the public should be fully informed on what is going It's diotic to believe that the people are going to continue to fight an anonymous war
 The American people have faith in their Government than any other people in the world It isn't at all remarkable to us that the people have continued to buy bonds, continued to make sacrifices, continued to workeven though they have been kept in the dark But this has been shock to Hitler and Hirohito
 But upon what is this faith based? For thing upon the right of the American people to administer to their own affairs by electing their leaders and expressing their right of self govenment-and being informed of the actions of these elected of ficals
 It is undeniable that the most important connect ing link between the public and the Government is the press. The public is told what is going on through the newspapers. Distance consuming lines of communication keep every American in daily con- tact with the Government, whether it be Federal or State city.
 When the comes along, the people asked to sacrifice, to pay for the organizing of a huge Army and Navy, and to pay for sending these armed forces to battle They pay out of their pockets and they pay with their lives.
 So far they have been denied the right of know ing what these armed forces doing. Sooner later, the military authorities going to realize that they have made mistake in not paying attention to getting the information of the to the American people.
 The people still running this Government They've proved it on more than one occasion.

the preliminary testing of deposits and testing of milling possibilities, all the way to providing a product that can be sold and used in the war effort.
 In this connection, Sanford urges all efforts ot be put forth at present to prevent the scrapping of still use full mining machinery in view of the needs for this machinery in the development of minerals and the necessity to making the machinery available to small operators.
 Part of the work being done in Alaska now is financed out of the regular appropriation of the Bureau of Mines, and part by special ap- propriation made by the War Pro- duction Board. Gov. Ernest Gruen- ing was influential in gaining the WIPE appropriation with which to supplement the work which was carried on before the WIPES support ol bureau OI Mines funds
 Many Engineers Here
 The bureau now has 12 engineers in the field with crews, and two more engineers are on their way to the Territory. There are four mem bers of the Bureau of Mines staff engaged in work in the Juneau office and two more on their way here
 The rapidly expanding activities of the bureau has necessitated larger office space, and the staff under Sanford soon will move to larger quarters, formerly occupied by the National Resources Planning Board regional office.
 Due to the nature of the explora- tion and development of mining properties with strategic minerals involved in time of war, the loca- tions of such projects may not yet be revealed.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1942-08-07

Under a new U. s. Bureau of Mines program to develop all strate- gic and critical minerals for the war machine, the Alaska mining in- dustry seems destined to receive a huge boost as a result of the war.
 The Bureau of Mines, under the direction of District Engineer Rob- ert s. Sanford, now has nine prof ects in Alaska for exploring and developing strategic minerals in- cluding tungsten, nickel, molybde- mum, copper, chorme, antimony, mercury and tin, Sanford announced today.
 This is part of the work being done throughout the United States and its Territories as result of the recent streamlining of the Bureau of Mines to speed the expanded pro gram of providing strategic and critical minerals for the nations war needs.
 Under the reorganization, three regional offices were set up in the States and district engineers assign ed to separate States and regions. Sanford is in complete charge of all of the Bureau of Mines work in Alaska. From his office in the Fed eral Building in Juneau, formerly only the headquarters for an ex- ploration division, Sanford has talk en over for Alaska all of the func- tions and duties in the field prev iously assigned to the Mining, Met allurgical and Nonmetals divisions of the Technologic branch. All func- tions of the supervising engineers office and other duties formerly performed in Washington, D. C., have been transferred to Alaska under Sanford to speed the work of the bureau.
 Complete Charge
 As result, the Alaska office now is responsible all the way from the preliminary selection of projects be- ing explored and developed through

Derby, Conn.,, May 23-(UP)-An
indicated Harvard crew was fav-
ored to defeat Yale when they meet
late today in a renewal of a rivalry
which extends way back to 1852.
The Harvard sweep-swingers, I'M
beaten in three matches this year,
have held the Indian sign on the
Ellis for the past six years. and If
the Crimson wins today 1t will mark
the first time in history that either
q Harvard or Yale crew, has won
seven victories in row over each
other.
Both have had victory strings OF
six races, but never seven.
The race today will be staged I'M
der wartime conditions over the
two-mile Housatonic river course
The race was shifted from its tradi-
tional Thames river spot at New
London, a. four-mile course, be-
cause Of Its proximity to war in
Stallations.
Here, there were no observation
trains, no waving pennantS and
little excitement. There were even
rumors that both Yale and Har-
ward may give up crew-racing until
the war is over.
The Yale varsity, said to be
strong in the sprints, has broken
even In two matches this year.
The combination, freshman and
junior varsity races will precede the
main varsity event.

BAN Is
F. OBEYED, ROACH
1000 Cooperation Now;
Fewer Violations Since
Tagging Started

Waterbury motorists are cooper
ating almost 100 per cent with po-
lice in obeying the all night parking
ban," Police Superintendent Will
liam j. Roach said today following
four days enforcement of the ban
during which more than 200 drivers
who violated the ban paid 81 each
for tickets.
Since Tuesday night, however,
when the police started issuing tags
instead of warning slips to motor
lists whose cars were found on the
streets more than three hours con-
tinuously between one and seven a.
M, there have been fewer violations
each night.
1T am pleased that the Water
bury public Is taking the ban in
good spirit" said Chief Roach. 1--WE
realize that in some cases there
have been inconvenience to motor
lists and for that reason we delay
ed enforcing the ban from Febru-
airy when the police board adopted
it. Now that the regulation Is in eff
feet and we are enforcing it I feel
that 1t will work out to the satisfac-
ton of all concerned"
Receipts from tags issued showed
that fewer motorists are leaving
their cars out all night in violation
of the regulation.
Municipal Court Clerk Carmine
Cipriano reported that on Wednes-
day morning, following the first
night of tagging violators, the po-
lice department turned over SIPS to
him representing receipts for tags
issued. The following morning there
was $1O6 and yesterday only $50.
Included in these figures ara fees
for tags issued for ordinary parking
violations so that the receipts for
each do do not indicate the number
of tags issued for all-night parking
ban violators.
To compare current receipts with
tag collections prior to the enforce
ment of the all night ban, records
of the court clerks Office show that
last Saturday only $13 was turned
in; Monday, $2a: and Tuesday (the
day before the ban was enforced)
$26.

DEFENSE TACTICS
I ARE UNDER STUDY
Guerrilla Warfare May Be-
come Factor in Amer
lean Lives

Washington, May 2S = (U.P) -
Americans were urged today to
study guerrilla warfare as vital
factor in home defense despite the
seeming remoteness of invasion"
Advocate of guerrilla preparations
was Lieutenant Colonel Joseph L..
Greene, editor of the Infantry
Journal, who said he made the plea
personally and not as an official.
War Department officials said
there are no plans at present to
train civilians In behind-t he-line
combat tactics. but are maintaining
a close study of such operations and
keeping abreast of latest develop
mentS.
Green's campaign to train civilian
resistance has resulted in q paper
bound book entitled Guerrilla War
fare" written by Bert (Yank) Levy
and sponsored by the Infantry
Journal.
Levy, who now is instructing the
British home guard in guerrilla
methods, Is considered an expert.
His booklet is filled with the tech
niques for dispatching an enemy
sentry without fuss, tripping motor
cycle messengers, and immobilizing
tank units behind the enemy's lines.
The booklet can be considered a
fairly accurate description of how

SPY SCARE in
MAINE IS OVER

Augusta, Me-, May 23- (UP) =
Names short-lived spy scare was
attributed today to elaboration OF
a warning issued a month ago by
the Army's First Corps Area COM
mander concerning possible future
activities of Axis agents In New
England.
The original warning by Maj
Gen. Sherman Miles was intended
merely to advise New Englapders as
to how spies might operate should
they alter into the area.
But instead Of discussing posi-
bilities. a 10OO-word memorandum
distributed by State Civilian De-
tense Director Francis H. Farnim
among Names 5000 civilian defense
workers was written in past tense
and pictured enemy spies already
operating in various parts OF the
state.
Late yesterday, Farnum issued a
formal statement to end the spy
scare.
@Rumors or unauthorized state
lnentS to the contrary" he said,
MAINE officials are not cognizant
Of any extraordinary activity"
