dents have been asked by the WAC recruiting service to help in the recruiting of especially three, be- cause they have one son at present overseas in the Medical Corps and they know the serious situation at present.
 The request for names of eligibles says:
 We should like to recruit trained technicians but they simply are not available. So the Surgeon General has established schools to train these people. At the present time women are being trained as X-ray technicians, laboratory technicians, dental assignments, surgical tech- nicians and nurses aides; addition al schools will be opened as fa- cilities permit. Any woman who is between 20 and 49 years of age, a graduate of high school and who does not have children under IA, may qualify for one of these schools. Not only would they be a real service in this critical period but they would have the opportunity to learn a vocation they might choose to follow after the war is over"
 Further particulars may be ob- tained from the RobertSons.

RUSSIAN PRIEST GIVES VIEWS ON
 SOVIET POLICIES

lIle fCuSSldll pCOpiC hu'C AAo VI sire for world rule. Russia is a rich and bountiful land, contain ing nearly all the essentials that its people need for comfortable existence. Why should they want to deprive other people of territory when they, themselves, have so much?"
 This is the opinion expressed by the Rev. John Wasil, who has ar rived here from Edmonton, Alberta, in connection with the Russian Orthodox Church.
 The Rev. Wasil was born in the western part of the Soviet Union where he lived until 1920 when, with his wife and small son, he moved to Czechoslovakia. In 1927 he was ordered to Canada by his Bishop and, since his family was unable to accompany him at that time, plans were made for them to join him at a later date. Be- cause of ill health, the reunion was postponed until 1889, then Hitler marched into Czechoslovakia.
 No News Of Family
 When Germany declared war on Russia, June 22, 1941, Rev. Wasil's son escaped from the Slovak country and joined the Red Army. A short time later he was killed in action. Since that time, Rev. Wasil has had no further news of his wife and family.
 Recalling the destruction of Rus sias western provinces by the Nazi war machine, the Priest declares, If the Soviet forces reach Berlin before the Americans do, there will be no such thing as compromise. The Russians can never forgive the brutality inflicted on their people by the Nazis.''
 Believe In Russia
 Asked if he believes most Euro peans are Russian, the Rev Wasil replied, T certainly do. The common people of Yugoslavia, Bull garia and other Slovak countries have great deal of affection for Russia, who has been rather like a big sister to them. The same Slavic language, with various dia- lects, is spoken by both the Rus sians and Slovonians.
 II T believe that the peasants and middle class people of these coun- tries would like to be part of the Soviet Union. Of course, the Gov ernment officials and moneyed citi- zens would never consent to Com munistic rule. However, I believe a New Order is in store for Rus sia. No country can survive the situations she has survived in the last few years and stay unchanged.
 To Strike Japan
 Questioned about the Russian- Japanese status, the Rev. Wasil declared bluntly, Russia will at- tack Japan the moment the Euro pean conflict is ended. The two have always been enemies and we still have the Port Arthur incl dent to avenge, which to us is as Pearl Harbor is to you.
 "The Chinese are kindly, peace loving people. Russians have always felt a kinship toward these neigh bors. At any time, the Soviet could easily have taken Chinese territory but it has never wanted to-"
 After the war, the first thing the Priest intends to do is to trace his family, but other than that his plans are indefinite. If he re- mains in Juneau he may teach g Russian language class, to enable those interested to gain a better understanding of our great Ally.
