THE NOME NUGGET

0OO,00O tons of coal to produce Nazi Munitions Minister Albert Speer re- gently ordered the manufacture of arti- ficial gasoline cut down by 2,O00, 900 tons
 The German war machine is depend ing more than ever upon female labor, which is estimated to be only about 75 per cent as efficient as male. Before the war women made up per cent of the German labor force Now it is 30 per cent. In terms of reduced manpoWer efficiency, this amounts to a shortage of 2 2.OOO,0 men, or from 16 to Is million labor hours.
 Both aviation and tank and armored ear production have been cut apprecia- bly in Germany because of a shortage of steel. Allied airmen have knocked out some of the Reich's greatest steel mills.
 Transportation facilities in Germany are in bad shape, and there is an appar- ent shortage of machinery to carry on war production. Both the German rall- roads and machine tools are beginning to wear out, and the Nazis are not Tn position to replace them. The use of giant cargo planes to move freight in Garmany is only one token of the grow ing seriousness of the transportation bottleneck In planning for war, Hitler planned to lean heavily upon super highway system, and the railroads are somewhat neglected He forgot that highways were useless without trucks, gasoline and rubber, none of which are very plentiful in Germany today.
 These factors are not due cause for belief that the rest of the war will be easy, or that Germany is about whipped. But they do reveal some mortal weak nesses in the Nazi war structure which time and attack will exploit to the full est.-'Cincinnati Enquirer).

NAZI BOTTLENECKS

Four major bottlenecks are cramping German war production this year, judg- ing by the best available data from the land of the enemy.
 The first, and worst, is shortage Of coal production. The Germans use coal in the production of gasoline, synthetic rubber, chemicals, soaps, greases, and in supplying the power for transporta- ton, electricity and steel mills. In all, the essential war requirements total 45O,OOO000 tons annually. But, accord ing to information from German sour ces, actual production is only 37O, OOOO tons
 One reason the German air force may be disputing only the major Allied raids is that the available fuel for the Luft- waffle has been cut about 25 per cent The Nazi air forces requirements of gasoline for 1914 are estimated at g. 100000 tons, which would require 270,-

MISSIONARIES
 RESCUED FROM .HOLLANDIA

NEW GUINEA, Apr. 23.--tAP) -One hundred foreign mission aries, including 40 nuns, were rescued in Hollandia, it was re- ported today.
 Gen. Macarthur said: "It is with peculiar pleasure that I re- port the rescue from the enemy in tie Hollandia operations of 100 foreign missionaries, includ- ing 13 Americans, seven Dutch, three Poles, one Australian, one Czecho-S -Slovakian and the re- mainder Germans originally sta toned at missions along the north coast of New Guinea"
 Meager details failed to ex- plain why the Germans sought refuge with the missionaries, in- stead of with their own Jap aD- lies.

NOVELTIES GET TOGETHER IN ENGLISH CLUB

It. Fred Kubon, son of MT. and Mrs. Ralph Kubon, former own CTS of Kubon's Drug Store, now with the Sea-Bees in England, re- gently ran across Miss Louise Harlan, former employee here at Nome for the U. s. Smelling, Re lining & Mining Company, at the American Red Cross Officers Club in Bournemouth.
 The meeting was good for Red Cross publicity. Young Kubon it stated, had courted Louise's older sister in Fairbanks back in 1880 when she was a "devilish, bandy legged, pig-tailed young ster always turning up at the wrong time.'
 Kubon was a University of AL aska student in 1880. He later worked for Louise's fa'her. He worked on his own as a miner in Baker, Oregon, built houses for his brother in Ohio and was a project engineer at Henry Kais-

But it was not a happy union.
Not long after the ceremony
rumors reached Asmahan that her
new husband was a NaZi sympathizer
She was enraged and Immediately
asked him where he stood. He adj
mitted he thought the German cause
would triumph.
Leave my house" she ordered.
He left. but in two weeks he re-
turned 10 her villa on Cairos Pyra-
mids Road, begging her 10 take him
back because, he said, he had changed
his mind about the Germans. She
did not believe him, and told him 50.
In a frenzy, Ahmed tugged a pistol
from a pocket and fired several shots
at her. A policeman ran in and the
film producer shot him, then turned
the weapon on himself Asmahan
was not wounded and the two men
soon recovered.
ASmahan let il be known that the
reason her husband sought a recon
citation was because he was afraid
of the vengeance of the DTuseS for
sympathiZing with the Nazis.
In any event, Asmahan, soon after
the gunplay, decided TO get away
from il all by taking a vacation. Her
latest movie was finished and she
packed her bags for relaxation by the
seaside. 1t was to be a gay occasion
after her unpleasant experience.
Asmahan was chatting with her
maid and laughing as the chauffeur
drove along the high road Suddenly
there was a screeching of brakes. the
skidding of uncomfortable wheels, a
sharp cry. and Asmahan splashed
into the water below.
If il hadn't been for the oil at that
particular spot on the road, Asmahan
today would still be delighting the
audiences at Cairo How did il happen

able British soldier. In hospital in

Hope. His one passionate desire was
that he should never be sent back

MIR. WALLACE NEEDS SUPPORT

In smoke filled hotel rooms and in the corners
of dim-lt bars down in Washington, the ar C h
reactionaries are reported to be cooking up deal
for the Democratic convention by which Henry Wal
lace will be shelved as the Vice Presidential cand-
date of the party in 1914 The southern bourbons
and some of the Democrats in the North have long
expressed their distaste for the pronounced liberal
ism of our Vice President His fortnight denunca-
ton of exploters and his unequivoca stand on or
gained labor and minority groups have worried
the tory crowd no little in the last two years.
The smear artists have tried to paint Mr.. Wal
lace as some screwball visionary who is helpless in
the practical work-a-day world of Washington. The
Republican press led this campaign Of abuse but
the newspapers were abetted by many Capitol Hill
Democrat Mr. Wallace was ridiculed for his good
will tour of Latin America and accused of being a
mkman to the Hottentots. His global views were
all "globaloney" to the plutocrats.
Shortly before his mission to China, however,
Mr.. Wallace went on a nationwide speaking tour
which enhanced his reputation considerably and
WINGED many doubters that he was not only high
minded idealist but also practical politician who
is ready to do battle for the principles which he
pouses. The public response to his speeches was
enthusiastic everywhere he spoke and it became clear
that at least two powerful groups in American life
were definitely on his side, organized labor and the
Negro people.
From the point of view of so-called practical
politics" the candidate in 1914 who succeeds in get
ting support from these groups will stand an excel
lent chance of winning this election The Democrats
who sincerely want to keep the party in power in
Washington cannot let their preudces get the better
of their political judgement. Vice Presidential
candidate on the Democratic ticket will provide a
new target for the COP and if the candidate
