TIlE spirit of Jose Rial has

He was a gallant man who
died for freedom of his people.
He was as great warrior
against tyranny and oppression
as ever lived. though he fought
in a region so remote in his day
that ne was little known to the
rest of the world.
He fought in tho same cause
that has inspired patriots since
the beginning of time and to
such effect that today his name
is synonymous with liberty
among the FAipinos. lie was
the George Washington of his
people.
His soul is reflected in a secret
society that has sprung up on
Lulon TO foster civilian resist

occupied regions of the Philip
pines. This society. as revealed

GreenbeIf Awaits Word
On New Schools Status

Whether the new elementary
school at Greenbelt will be a tenn
porary or permanent structure is
still undecided, according to Roy S
Braden, town manager.
An appropriation for the struc-
ture, as well as an addition to the
Greenbelt High School, has been
approved, but no contract has been
let.
Mr.. Braden said yesterday he had
been informed schools in defense
areas not already appropriated and
contracted for would have to be
temporary structures. He is waiting
for official word as to whether the
Greenbelt schools will come under
that classification.
"I can understand how homes to-
day might have to be temporary
structures, but a school has to be
built to last" Mr.. Braden COM
mented.

Army Sinks Transport Al Jop-HeId Kisko; Enemy Gives Version of AIeUtidn Landing

(Via P) Tokyo newspapers this week published first pictures of the Jap landing on a sparsely settle Aleutian island outpost and printed the first detailed Jap version of the attack writ ten by Domei correspondent.
 The occupied island was ack- nowledged to be only "a barren outpost of 4 barrsck buildings" One picture showed a Jap naval party scanning the scene of thelr landings in preparation for what they called the next offensive" In another Jap soldiers are ad- vancing across Aleutian tundra. Another picture was of two bearded Americans, personnel there.
 Here is the version:
 Questioning revealed that the two men with eight others had been t ansierred to this is- land in December last year.
  When asked if they thought Am erican troops would ever be sent to retake the island they decIaY- ed rather bitterly, Hell, no.'

 Proper authorities stress the fact that the new rules should cause no uneasiness or alarm, as the identification required is simple and easy to obtain, and the rules are primarily to con trol traffic and not to restrict 1t in anyway. No restrictions what soever have been placed on out going travel, either on defense workers or others.

Dependents Set
 Order Of Draft

Washington (R)-Dratt head quarters announced that gener ally speaking married men with ch ldren will be the last called into service, but emphasized they could count upon no per manent deferment.
 Selective Service officials add ed they to make it emphatic that new regulations do not pro- vide for permanent deferment of men with dependents but rather proved the order in which regis trants with dependents would be inducted. It appeared in some cases that married men might still be called ahead of others if such action is necessary to till draft calls on time. This Is pos sible in cases where draft board is already on the point of send ing married men up for induc- ton and cannot substitute single men quickly, so the married man may have to serve.

Washington (R)-The Navy reported that the Japanese have put forces ashore at Kiska island and apparently are at tempting to establish some sort of base on that Aleutian island only 585 miles from the Navy's Dutch base.
 The second enemy foothold in the Western Hemisphere was made known in a communique which said Army bombers raid ing the harbor at Kiska had sunk a transport and apparently hit a cruiser. "Tents and minor temporary structures were seen set up on land" the communique said. This indicated the enemy had made some progress since the Navy communique of June 12 which reported Japanese ships at Kiska harbor and the landing of small enemy forces at Attu

DR.. Wei indicated satisfaction
with the statements made by Wen
dell Willkie in Chungking, where
President Roosevelt's special repre-
sentative voiced his desire for al
lied offensives on all fronts. The
Ambassador said:
"Mr. Willkie is one of the most
important statesmen who has Wis
tied China in recent years. The
welcome the Chinese gave him was
an expression of appreciation to him
and to the American people as a
whole. If we want to win the war,
we cannot stay on the defensive"
DR.. Wei's formal statement to the
press began:
China and the United States are
traditional friends. The present
war has brought the two countries
still closer and they are now COM
rades in arms. 1t needs no effort
to further the ever-increasing
friendship between them, because
they have been bound together, not
merely by mutual good will, but by
a common destiny-an infinitely
stronger tie.
One Task Ahead.
"In fact, there is little need Of
diplomacy in its old sense, because
between comrades on the battle
field such thing as bargaining has
absolutely no place. For comrades
there is but one task before them
to win the war. And there Is but
one way of winning-to unite their
efforts.

Business District Mail
Deliveries Start al 7:45

Mail deliveries in the business dis
trict were started at 7:45 am. today,
half hour earlier than usual, in an
effort to meet the requests of pa
irons for quicker service. The
schedule was recently revised, and
the first delivery started at 8:15
am, instead of 7:15, resulting in
some complaints.
Postmaster Vincent c. Burke said
the delivery changes were necessi-
tated because of the fact that trains
are running late, and to cope with
the shortage of help. In an effort
to afford as much relief as possible
in the situation, however, he said,
the delivery time was being ad-
vanced.
Paul B. Cromelin, president OF the
Bar Association of the District Of
Columbia, had urged an earlier de-
livery hour on behalf of lawyers,
who, he explained, were forced to 70
to court before receiving their morn
ing mail. In many instances, he ex-
planned, this mail contained evidence
or instructions needed in cases al
ready started.

portant than or secondary to the
other. A victory on the Pacific front
would hasten our total victory at
large and would be a great contribu-
tion to the common cause of the
United Nations.
Though the world may have
underrated or overestimated her,
Japan is the same Japan. AS a
matter of fact, at the time when the
war in the South Pacific broke out
Japan's strength, after four and a
half years of war in China, was
positively weaker than before. In
my opinion, that the situation in
the Pacific area has become what
1t is now, is due not so much to
Japan's own strength as to the lack
of effective cooperation among the
democracies."
