 The National Federation of Fed eral Employees, Local 25l, last night also successfully carried out their part of the 3rd War Loan Drive. This organization, representing the majority of the Federal employees in Juneau, accounted for the sale of Series E Bonds totaling $l6,625. Of this amount, $l3,l0o repre- sents bonds sold through the pay roll deduction plan for the month of September
 Each month the Federal em- ployees of Juneau purchase through the nation wide pay roll deduction plan, bonds approximating this amount.
 The lover the counter" sale of Bonds and stamps last night was stimulated by the presence of Al Peterson and his accordion and the enthusiastic endeavor of Jan- ice Lewis, Bernice Mead, Jane Hinckel, and Bess O'Neill who manned the booth for the organ ization.

PRO-RUssIAN ACTIVITY

The same trouble may face the Allies in Italy. It is already report ed that General Di Mobile, Italian zeppelin commander who crashed near the north pole and was res cued by the Russians, is now form ing a new pro-Russian Communist government for Italy.
 Furthermore. the political pend- ulum normally swings from Fascism to Communism and will probably do so in both Germany and Italy. That is why some of the gentlemen around Secretary Hull were not anxious to have Russia in the Ital- ian picture, and she was not con- suited regarding the original armis- tice terms, although she participat- ed in the final arrangements. Some of the State Department cliques also have been roofing quietly for retention of the House of Savoy, and believe the United States should dictate a conservative government for Italy.
 On the other hand, the liberal followers of Sumner Welles inside the State Department have been working on plan whereby we would make an agreement with Rus sia that all the Allies keep hands off Italy for political breathing period during which the Italian people would be under partisan military rule. At the end of this time Italians would hold their own elections and the government they chose, whether republican, commun- ist, or monarchist, would then take over
