resentative in Seattle for the De- partment of the Interior, will grant certificates to packers able to prove that the meat so certified will be shipped to Alaska
 Tt is extremely fortunate for us, D said Gov. Gruening, that such a workable plan has been placed in effect. It means we will not have undue restrictions placed upon our meat supplies. Of course, there has been meat rationing of a sort in Alaska, occasioned by the lack of supplies the States and by the limited amount of refrigeration space on ships in the Alaska ser vice. It remains our duty as patri- otic American citizens to continue at this time to keep our consump- ton of meat down to the lowest possible level. By so doing we shall be playing our part in assuring ade- quate supplies for the armed ser vices and in not over -burdening shipping facilities"

MEAT SUPPLIES
 TO ALASkA TO BE CONTINUED
Gov. Gruening Secures Ar rangemenf Through
 interior Dept.

Arguments made by Gov. Ernest Gruening, protesting the proposed establishment of a quota system for meat shipments to Alaska, have been effective in assuring Alaskans normal shipments of meat under a plan worked out with the Depart ment of the Interior, the Governors Office announced today.
 The quota system would have drastically reduced the quantity of meat shipped to the Territory, the announcement said, because slaugh- terers would have had to subtract such shipments from the total amount put into consumption chan nels, and the result probably would have meant restrictions under this plan would have fallen heaviest on Alaskan meat markets and other importers rather than outlet chan nels n the States.
 Under the plan which has been worked out, Don w. Hagerty, rep

Military Statesmen

IT is an interesting fact that Of the four
i heads Of the powerful United Nations
the United States, Great Britain Russia and
China President Roosevelt is the only one
who has never had any military training and
never had any military experience.
Prime Minister Churchill was educated
At the British West Point served as a young
officer in the wars against The Sudanese tribes,
and after Gallipoh in World War T. went 10
the front in France whore he served with
distinction as a colonel
After the Bolshevk revolution Stain
was entrusted with D. military command by
Lenn and served with credit In the civil wars.
Discounting recent glowing accounts Of his
military genius il remains fact that he was
responsible for the strategy and tactics which
were The undoing Of the Ncounter-reyolution-
aries in the southern stretches Of Russia.
Chang Kai-shek was educated Tor the
army, receiving part Of his training in Japan.

The Primary Election

A S SOON as the results Of this weeks
n primary became known, lot Of De-
troiters, in and out of print began to COM
plain loudly that il was not fair test of
strength OF the two leading mayoraty cand-
dates because. in view of the light vote, it was
not a truly representative election.
Most Of the Detroiters who INDUCED in
this type of argument had themselves
neglected to vote They may be right when
they insist that Tuesdays primary was not
real test Of strength between Mayor Jeffries
and Frank FitzGerstd.
They are sadly wrong though, in their
contention that the primary was not a truly
representative turnout. 1t WAS representa-
tive in an extremely important aspect of
election procedure.
IT WAS truly representative Of those De-
/ troiters who are sufficiently interested in
the administration of their city to get out
and vote,
They were fully entitled 10 express their
wishes at the polls, and their neighbors, who
were too lazy to 60 TO the polling booth, are
entitled to no sympathy if the voting ran
contrary TO their wishes.
