CHRISTMAS SEAL
 { BUYING E URGED

At the meeting of the Board Of the Alaska Tuberculosis Association, past accomplishments of the or ganization were reviewed and ten tative plans formed for full pro- gram of activity for the coming year
 In speaking of the past, it was recalled that for several years the Association had paid all the ex- penses of a physician who travelled throughout the Territory taking tuberculin tests and that, at the present time it matched funds with the Territorial Health Department in securing the aid of a travelling physician. It has also purchased one portable X-Ray machine and other equipment and assisted in buying a second outfit. Among other pro- jects, it was revealed, had been the renting of films depicting the care and cure of tubercular patients and these films had been shown i throughout Alaska wherever pro- jection equipment was available Also rating high among the acti- vities was the Associations payment for x-Rays of children whose par ents were unable to pay for this service.
 Said E. L. Bartlett. President oi the organization: We wish to dc as well, if not better, during the coming year but to do this we need the cooperation of everyone We hope that everyone will buy Christmas seals and use them gen. erously. Their use will signify tha! we are all together in our fight against our common enemy, Tuber- culosis.'

SHABx YOUR CHRISTMAS
 DINNER REQUESTED

An appeal has been made by local USO representative that families in the community invite servicemen to share their Christmas dinners if possible. Although the dinner might not be so enormous or plen- tiful as those served at the Army camps, it will be compensated by the joy and happiness of spending a few hours in a friendly home, which means so much to those away from families and friends. Anyone desiring to share their dinners are asked to contact the USO in Juneau or call 766.

POLITICAL PARADE
BY GEORGE ROTHWELL BROWN

THERE were, OF course. other
Il factors in the elections.
Organized labor, drunk with
power obtained from the New
Deal government in exchange
for votes and campaign contri-
buttons, went too far, in its
arrogance behind the protection
of the Wagner law and one
sided decisions of the courts.
The New Deal went too far
in its tolerance of communism,
and its defiance OF the Congress
when Congre sought to
cleanse the public pay roll OF
left wing radicals.
TIiE Dies committee has been
Il given mandate TO ferret
out more of. these subverSive
elements that have wriggled
into the very woodwork of the
government in Washington.
The Kerr committee of the
House has been given orders not
to be intimidated in its effort
TO purge the government service
of subversives certified by the
Dies committee.
The Kerr committee of the
been given a mandate to en-
force the Smith Connally law
against labor leaders who strike
the nations basic industries in
time of war.
The President has been given
a mandate to, join the economy
bloc IN Congress in the preven-
ton of wasteful spending, and
TO find way to help instead of
TO hinder the effort to relieve
the burden of taxation on the
plain people.
To reckless labor leaders a
signal has been flown which
they will ignore to their peril.
To the people has been given
a sudden light-they can save
themselves whenever they want
to vote to save themselves.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5-The
w Republican vic tories in
Tuesdays elections sprang from
the people themselves, who are
fed to the ears on the regimen
tation of the New Deal. 1t was
revolt that anybody could have
seen brewing for weeks and
months past.
AS the smoke Of battle clears
away from the polling places it
is seen that the big shots, the
candidates for governor and
mayor, were not the only casual
ties.
The people made a clean
sweep, and the manned and
wounded include thousands of
the smaller fry, all over the
country, down 10 members Of
the city council and the town
dog catcher.
1t is this which in reality gives
10 the elections so great a stamp
of authenticity true revolt by
the people against the bureau
cratic hordes who for a long
time have been treating them
like so many Russian serfs.
Naturally, some innocent in such
circumstances suffer with the
guilty.
IN MANY instances the local
Il rationing boards, which dole
out the gas and the kerosene
and the sugar and the shoes and
the rubber boots, to the poor
boobs who have to kow-tow and
beg on Bonded knee for the
privilege of living, are not to
blame.
Nevertheless. the people took
il out of the subordinate office
holders as well as the higherups,
on the general theory that all
officeholders look alike.
The local rationing boards.
the people who actually put the
RECOMMENDATION into effect, for a
long time were composed of
neighborhood folks who under
stood the problems of their fell
low citizens, and served patri-
otically without pay.
But within the past few
months these local boards have
more and more been controlled,
and themselves regimented, by
their bureaucratic bosses of the
Office Of Price Administration
in Washington. and put under
paid employees.
The revolt at the polls was
thus essentially a revolt against
Washington bureaucracy.

surnes that vast number OF
air bases distributed all over the
planet will be needed to sup
port a great military air force
such as the United States is
likely TO possess.
THIS simply is not true, and
l. it seems highly desirable
that Americans should obtain a
more realistic understanding of
the matter. We surely do not
want to gum up postwar rela-
tons with friendly countries for
the sake Of bases which, from
the strictly military viewpoint,
at least, are unnecessary.
Those who think we sail
need chains of bases. even
when they are politically far
sighted, frequently 60 astray
on this issue because they are
reckoning on the kind of avia-
tion We have today, rather than
the aviation certain to emerge
tomorrow. They forget that
most of the in-between bases
constructed during the war
were necessary to compensate
for the short operational range
Of aircraft. Every time that adj
ditional range has been built
into airplanes, more Of these
waystations have lost their
strategic value.
T hold an intermediary base
Il you must be able to protect
1t with aviation equal to every
thing the enemy can throw
against il. If that base is close
to the enemy's main aerial
strength. ii therefore becomes
indefensible. The same is true of
an enemy's bases close to our
own country. Suppose a hostile
power held bases in the Carib-
bean, dependent on supplies
from the other side of the
ocean. Obviously we would take
them over at will.

nored by both sides. Air power

stroke" from the center of one
great nation to the center of the
opposing nation.
In the light OF these indubi-
table trends in air power devel-
opment, much of the discussion
about farflung air bases is quite
unrealistic from the purely mill
tary angle.
