Can the United States be bombed from the air? Will the United States be bombed?
 The first question can pe an- swered flatly; Yes.
 The second calls for qualifications.
 All military operations have a definite purpose. The purpose ot aerial bombardment of America would be: CD Disruption of civilian morale and effectiveness; @ De- struction of war plants.
 The first objective might be at tempted with light, knoekdown planes carried by submarines. The Axis also might attempt to sneak a plane tender past the Atlantic patrols.
 Nuisance Value Only
 The weight of bombs these planes could carry would be insignificant. There is grave doubt that the objec- tive could be attained. Experience in this war has shown that q sprinkling of light bombs is inef- fectual in destroying civilian morale. Indeed, it has had the effect of unifying the populace and actually

JAPANESE MAKE FIRST ALASKA ASSAULT
Roosevelt Gives Verbal Spanking 10 Washington
 Regarding "Loose Talk
BY JACK STINNETT

WASHINGTON, June 3 = The President the other day set his foot down on loose talk" on war matters. It isn't the first time, but never before has he been so em- phatic in declaring that there is too much of it afloat and I don't believe ever before has he de- nounced Washington as being worse offender than all the rest of the country put together.
 There's a good reason for his warning Washington has become the last free news center of the world on stories dealing with the war. Yet Washington, for all it's unprecedented demonstration of unity of war effort (the records Of the Civil and even World War I are far less admirable than the present war in the matter of na- tional capital unity) still is dem- 0"racy operating on a political basis.
 There still are political jealousies and ambitions, petty personal quar- rels, and men in high places whose judgment on what they should or shouldn't divulge is swayed by in dividual feelings, or the necessity for justification.
 Of the major nations involved in the war, this is the last outpost of the democratic principles of un- trammeled speech, with Canada, Australia and England close be- hind. In the Axis nations, news is manufactured to suit the war and propaganda machines.
 Still, all the important informa- tion available to the United Nations flows through Washington The Continued on Page Three)

WASHINGTON = Josephus Dan iels, Secretary of the Navy under woodrow Wilson, may have started something when he exposed the fact that enlisted men who were good enough to die for their country were not considered good enough to dance with army nurses. Only of ficers, the War Department ad- mitted, can dance with nurses.
 This happens to be the first time Josephus has turned his scrutin- izing eye on the Army. But long ago the Navy was target for his critical gaze. And because Josephus abolished wine from the Naval of ficers' mess and set up schools for enlisted men to become officers, he still is considered by the Navy as a rank heretic.
 However, if you examine the of ficer enlisted man relationship Sometimes called caste" system of the U. s. Army and Navy, and compare it with the most successful armies of Europe, it may be that heretical Josephus Daniels has a point
 Obviously the most successful armies in Europe today are the Rus sian and German. No matter what we may think of their political sys- tems at home, we have to admit that in the field there is more dem ocracy and equality between the German officers and men, and Rus sian officers and men, than among the British, ourselves, or even the SO called democratic army of France.
 PRUSSIANIZED U. S. ARMY
 Real fact is that the U. s. Army took over the old caste system of the Prussians and has partially hung on to it, whereas the Germans junk ed it long ago.
 It was Baron Von Steuben who came over from Germany in TIT to drill George Washington's army and who set the standard for U s. Army discipline. Won Steuben was Washington's Inspector General,
