But "Alcan" as the name for the
new highway to Alaska doesn t
seem sweet to the Alaskans.
The territorial Chamber of Com
merce has written Delegate Dimond
Of Alaska that the name lacks dig

But therein lies the rub.
1t could be called Alaska high

want it called Canadian highway"
To stave off controversy Mr.. Di-

entire heart of Munich appeared to
be "one big fire" at one time. with
one explosion shooting flames nearly
1000 feet into the air and starting
a column of fire visible for go miles
despite other big fires around it.
IL Planes Downed, Nazis Say.
The German broadcast said pre-
limlnary reports showed that IL
British planes had been doWned.
The raid on Munich followed sew
eral late afternoon sweeps over
Northern France by Spitfre squad
rons, in the course of which two
enemy fighters were reported de-
Stroyed. Mosquito bombers also at
tackled a railway center near Last
Mains, scoring hits on the main
building, a communique said. One
OF the Mosquitoes failed to return.
German bombers caused some
damage and several casualties early
last night in the coastal districts OF
Eastern and Southern England but
there was little activity, it was au-
thoritatively announced, and one
enemy bomber was shot down into
the sea.
The German radio reported last
night that the civilian population
in the French port OF St. Nazaire
site Of one Of Hitler's Bay of Biscav
U-boat bases. was being evacuated
as the result Of continued Allied
bombing attacks.

WHERE INITIATION
COMES IN

The difference between dis
possible income of SIPS billion
and consumer expenditures Of
SIS billion would be $40 billion.
And there, on the little finger,
you have the well-known infla-
tionary gap. That $40 billion
if that's what the figure for l943
turns out to be--represents ex-
cess purchasing power, which
can be used to bid up prices on
the small stocks of goods and
services available in war time.
The trick of controlling infla-
ton is the trick of controlling
those $40 billions. Last year the
figure was SGT billion, which
was bad enough, and the year
before it was less than $14 bill
lion.
If your listeners haven't all
walked away and left you the
floor or the davenport, you can
continue to lecture by explain
ing what TO do with the $40 bill
lion. Put it into enforced saw
ings, or higher taxes or war
bonds.
