SUPERVISOR OF
EDUCATION HERE

Homer Howard, of the Bureau OF
Indian Affairs, has arrived here
from the south to assist in the SUI
pervision of Native education. He
plans, during his two months stay
to visit the Kodiak and Cook Inlet
areas, so that the Department here
may have the value of his analysis
of conditions from an educational
viewpoint. On previous trips to the
Territory Mr.. Howard visited the
Interior, part of the Yukon ter
ritory and southeast Alaska areas
Before the war, summer schools
for teachers were held in the
States at the Chemawa Indian
School in Oregon, and many Alaska
educators attended the sessions,
which were under the direction of
Mr.. Howard, whose field is teacher
training and in-service training
AS soon as the war is ended the
summer school will be resumed, the

NO TRANSPORTATION,
STUDENTS RESIDING
PAST ONE-MILE POST

According to announcement made
today by DR.. J. c. Ryan, Commits
sioner of Education, beginning to-
morrow morning the school bus will
be unable to furnish transportation
to any child whose residence is on
the Juneau side of the Mile post.
According to law the Territory is
obliged to furnish transportation to
any student who resides two miles
or more from the school which they
must attend. Heretofore, however,
j. P. Christensen obligingly would
stop his bus along the highway and
Twelfth Street to pick up children
on their way to classes, but because
Of the increase in the Glacier High
way population, the practice cannot
be continued this year. DR.. Ryan
stated, as the buses are already
overcrowded. If there is any further
increase in the highway population,
the transportation may have to be
be stopped at the Two-Mile post,
DR.. Ryan said.

HARD FIGHT
WITH JApS
IN PROSPECT
Nips Have Been Saving
Forces for Future Bal
files, Says ForrestaI

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6. = Navy
Secretary James V. Forrestal has
reported that the Japs are now
able to mass their air power in a
comparatively small area, and a
long, hard fight is in prospect. !"
He said in a news conference
that a year ago the Japs had their
air forces spread over an immense
Pacific area, but with the capture
or naturalization by by-passing OF
some SO enemy bases by American
forces "the Japs have been relieved
of their responsibility of supplying
them with planes. They mass their
air power now, narrowing the the
alter of action to the Philippines,
China and Japan proper"
Forrestal added that the Japs
have obviously been saving their
forces for engagements to come
and, as a result, have more planes
for future engagements.
Also" he said, 1.-The Japs have
made many important technical
improvements in their planes"
He added that there is some
feeling that the Navy is overzealous
in prosecuting the Pacific war, but
we couldn't afford to let the jap
anese get cemented in positions
they have taken"

THIRD ARMY
HA5(R055ED
INTO REICH
Secrecy Is Maintained on
New Movements Big
Battle Starts Soon

LONDON, Sept. 6. American
soldiers have carried the war to
German soil, sending tank supported
patrols across the western frontier.
This is the first official report of
the entry of the Reich by land since
the fall of France in 1910.
These penetrations were made
Sunday by the fast moving Third
Army which began battling in force
along the Moselle River and the
drive was into Saarbrucken, Ger
many.
Strong forces of the U. S. Third
Army have established themselves
firmly across the Moselle River in
preparation of the assault on Hit
ler's West Wall.
Gen. Eisenhower declares the bat
tie for Germany is about to begin
and this battle will be fought on
German soil"
1t is disclosed that penetrations
of the Reich frontier is about Is to
80 miles ahead Of the main front.
What has happened since the
spearheads into Germany on Sunday
is still under secrecy. .~
One senior staff officer declares
that Germanys last defense hope

Navy Will
CONTINUE
TO EXPAND
ForresfaI Says Number One
Priority Will Be All
Out on Japan

WASHINGTON, Sept, Ga lin
tied start on the demobilizing of
Uncle Sans big Army when Ger
many is crushed has been outlined
by the War Department, but Navy
Chief James v. Forrestal emphasized
that the worlds greatest Navy will
continue to expand"
Based partly on poll of fighting
men at the battlefronts, the Army
announced a system of releasing
troops when Germany is defeated
but it cautioned both soldiers and
the public that the war against
Japan will take first priority and
consequently soldiers will return to
civilian life slowly and in small
numbers.
Forrestal said Germany's defeat
will result in redistribution rather
than a reduction in Navy strength" "
The availability of shipping will play
an important part in Army de-
mobilization since rehabilitation
has been fixed on an individual
basis.
Some men are to be sent back
from Pacific, European and Ameri-
can outposts. Four essential fac
tors guide priority systems for re-
lease of soldiers. They are length
of service, overseas time, combat
credit and the number Of depend
ents.
The bulk of the Army's strength
will be shifted to the Pacific. The
awesome might created by these adj
ditional forces will be unleashed
against Japan as indicated by these
