 IN SPITE OF GOLD
 WEATHER, REPORT

Wildlife Agent Rod Darnell and Biologist Charles Gillham of the Alaska Game Commission returned to Juneau yesterday on the Grizzly Bear after a weeks trip through out Southeast Alaska to observe feeding conditions for deer
 Darnell reported that the ani- mals are over the hump for the winter and are making out fine.

The stretch of rain and warm weather which interrupted cold snap and washed snow of the islands is the reason given for the improved conditions.

OF NAzIS UNDER
 BIG ATTACK
Four-Ton Bombs Dropped Fires Are Set-London
 Is Also Assaulted
Continued from Page One) anything Londoners have ever heard before.

Hundreds of Britaip's heaviest ponbers blasted at Berlin Satur- lay night with four-ton block buster bombs and tens of thou allas Of incendiaries.
 i.ie attack was rated as one of the most destructive of the war for the Nazi capital.
 Last night the German air force retaliated with a spectacular but ineffective raid on London
 In these raids, the first of any consequence on either capital for more than year, the Royal Air Force brilliantly bested the Luft- waffle and the British also had the edge with anti-aircraft fire.
 Anti-aircraft defenses in the re- spective capitals were performed with marked contrast.
 In Berlin, anti-aircraft fire was the weakest ever seen by many of the experienced British fliers. Only one out of an estimated 300 bomb- CTS was lost by the British. In London, of the hundreds of German bombers sent to attack, only few ever got a glimpse of the city. Those which did ran into the heaviest anti-aircraft fire ever put up here Four of the Nazi raid- CTS were shot down.
 In Berlin, the British raiders set fires visible for hundreds of miles. Large areas in the city were laid to waste by the big 4,000- and 8,000-pound bombs
 In London, only a few heavy explosive bombs were dropped and fell into the suburbs last night. At last reports, the British bomb- CTS apparently had returned again last night to bomb Germany and other continental areas because radio stations went silent over wide areas.

 The VISA rates are as follows:
 l. To points not beyond Cape Spencer, one quarter of one per- cent.
 2. From Cape Spencer to Sew ard, three-quarters of one percent
 B. From Seward north, including the U. s. controlled islands, one ond-one- half percent.
 Commercial Higher
 Commercial rates are said to be exactly double the foregoing scale
 Retailers who still fail to take advantage of the reduced rates of- fered by the government by Febru- ary l will have to pay double, one- half of which they will be obliged to absorb themselves for shippers will have no alternative than to cover cargoes with war risk insur- ance issued by commercial con- panies.

fact that the number of marriages also has been shooting skyward since the United States donned uniform.
 One other explanation of the high birth rate is interesting- that the bumper crop of World War babies have just come to the right marriagable age.
 One thing is certain. If the pre- sent birth rate continues for any time at all. it is going to play hob with the predictions of statistical wizards who said that the United States population would hold steady and start to slip of when 1t reached something over l40.000.000.

TRAP LINES
 by HENRY PEARSON

Since writing an article on the care of babies recently, h ve been .swamped with all sorts of mail asking me to give advice on certain personal problems, etc. will do my best to answer as many as I can and today will answer very poignant letter from Irene Rasmussen, who,. it seems, is troubled with a toothache.
 Well, Irene, the first thing to do is to find out which tooth it is that aches This can bc l,.l- bJ tapping each tooth preferably from east to vest With a hammc. You should know when J~a u-m- to the right one.
 When you have isolated the ach- ing tooth, tie strong cord around it. Then go down to the dock and tie the other end onto any tug that happens to be handy and wait for the tug to start out.
 By the time you reach Aux Bay, the tooth should be sufficiently loose to be easily pulled by den- tist.
 In brushing the teeth, some peo- pie prefer an up and down stroke while others contend side mo- tion is better. And then again others say that it is best to merely take them out and hold them un- der the faucet.
 At any rate the teeth should be brushed at l-4st twice year and the dentist seen daily.
 Miss Rasmussen would also like Jo know what to do about film on the teeth. I generally scrape it off with a fish knife and then if one wishes afterwards, he may have the film developed
 Proper care of the teeth is must these days. It is much nicer upon getting married for instance, to get a nice set of dishes rather than just couple of plates.
 One upper and one lower.
