GR CWTH OF ALASKA

Indus trial development of Alaska Into a ase1f-susta taining territory after the war to keep pace with the rapid expansion in Siberia is fors- |seen by President Eric Johns on, United States Chamber of Commerce. Russ ia wants to buy billions of I6ollars worth of goods from the
 Unit ed States. To do so we will
 have to give them long term Greeits Ia me asure whi ch I favor. The flow |of goods to Russia through West Coast

Experience Seen As Theme
of Democratic Compoiqn

LAMAR, Mo, Sept. 1-tP)-
Sen. Harry S. Truman (D-Mo)
has summed up in one sentence
what may be the main theme of
II he Democratic Presidential
campaign.
There is no substitute for
experience" he told $4,000 peo-
pie who last night jammed the
town square of Lamar, his
birthplace, w h i h can be
gained only through years of ap-
phcation and service"
Truman, here 10 be informed
officially that the Democrats
had nominated him for the vice
presidential chores in President
Roosevelt's attempt TO win a
fourth term, repeatedly stressed
the proven leadership" and the
proven experience and qualifi-
cation" of Mr.. Roosevelt.
Although he never referred to
the Republican party or ticket
by name, he said, Il am conf
dent that the people of the Unit
ed States will not choose
for President, by political
chance, man who lacks expert
ence." And he added:
1T takes time for anyone to
familiarize himself with a new
job. This is particularly true of
the Presidency of the United
States"
This experience-is-the-b e 5 T.
teacher speech, the first official
Democratic address of the cam
paign and devoted almost ex-
clusively to praise for Mr..
Roosevelt, was expected to set q
pattern from which other fourth
term talks will be cut.
Sen. Connally (D-Tex), who
broke the nomination news to
Truman, also sounded the ex-
perience note as he declared the
voters would not place the mill
tary and naval leadership of the
nation lin untried hands" THE
American people will not cashier
the commander n-chief of the
Army and Navy on the field OF
battle" he said. Both Truman's
and Connally's speeches were
broadcast on all networks.

World Agency
Seen in 0ffinq
Economic and military
Sterilization Sought

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1 Up
The world security organiza-
ton being rough drafted at
Dumbarton Oaks is regarded by
many American officials close
to President Roosevelt as only
one wing of a greater structure
envisioned to provide interna-
tional cooperation in economic
and human welfare activities as
well as political problems.
The form of the proposed par
ent structure is still unshaped,
but, it was learned today, its
general concept goes beyond the
comments on. the Dumbarton
Oaks talks, made this week by
President Roosevelt and Secre-
tary of State Hull.
The President said he envi-
sion e d a world agency
with jurisdiction over such
questions as food and finances as
we'll as the use of military force
to preserve peace. Mr.. Hull said
the British Russian Americ a n
conferees at Dumbarton Oaks
were concerned strictly with Sc
curity, that is, political, ques-
tons.
One plan for the broader
structure which has been dis
cussed and is favorably consid-
cred by some Of the President
advisers is to set up three par
allel organizations, which might
be tied together and given gen.
eral policy direction by periodic
meetings of the heads of states,
something along the line of the
Roosevelt hurchill-Stalin con-
ference at Teheran last winter.
The three organizations in this
case would be:
I. Security-including coun-
Gil, assembly, court and other
machinery which would work
with purely political problems
such as boundary disputes and
potential aggressor nations, US
ing force if necessary to pre-
serve world peace.

SAN DIEGO, Calf, Sept. L.
Up A group of Navy and Ma
'rine veterans, wounded while
fighting on Guam and the first

have arrived for treatment at
the Naval hospital here. Most Of
the men were members of the
third Marine Division who have

fought at Bougainville' before
Guam's invasion.
All agreed that the battle fo-
Guam was the toughest and best

Pvt. Martell had been orig

firms his detention as a Nazi

One of the strangest, and yet
finest, oddities of nature is the
love that a woman will hold
for a man. Regardless of the
levels some men may sink to,
or what heights spouse will
ascend, the tie that binds is as
strong as ever.
No greater examples of inter-
sexual, or filial love, can be
seen than in those cases that
pass through the courts of the
county. 1t is these that parents
watch tenderly the fate of a
son or daughter, or a wife or
husband hang on the words of
a judge which will decide their
future course in life.
But whatever the cause for
their appearance in court -
thieving, drunkenness, disorder
illness, or a multitude of other
reasons - there is someone to
meet him or her when the trial
is over.
Lest lack of space force
these few remaining lines out
of print, we would like to take
time and space to give ex-
preston to bit of sentiment.
With the ringing of school
bells, our services here will
terminate. During the sum-
mer months of educational re-
cess we have made many
friendly and helpful contacts.
1t Is to those that we would
like to give thanks for their
offers of kindly cooperation.
Especially would we like to
thank Clarence Shirley of circuit
court for his gentlemanly assist
ance; Judge Noe, for answering
all our questions; Johanna Braun
for her willing help in Guy
Browns office; Miss Alice Tuck
er for aid rendered on the many
phases of early county history,
and the multitude of others who
have helped us write the news
as it became news.
Last, but not least, our
thanks to Paul Mckee of the
Macomb Publishing company;
Wallace MacLachlan, editor
of the Monitor Leader and
his patience in replying to our
never-ending stream of ques-
tions; and all the "boys and
girls" in the front end, and
back room, who made the
summer one of the pleasantest
an d most instructive ever
spent. In the words of AbOu
Ben Adam, may their tribe
increase.

'vittory Shift
Aids Students
Teen Ayers Have
Chance to Earn, Learn

MILWAUKEE, Sept. 1-(P-
The choice has been made easy
for Milwaukee high school boys
torn between a desire to 60 back
to school or to continue work
ing.
A victory shift" at the vast
Allis- Chalmers Manufacturing
company plant will enable them
TO do both.
When high schools reopen
next week, hundreds of teen
ayers won't have to give up their
summer Jobs. They'll be able to
carry a full classroom schedule
and devote four after-school
hours to vital war jobs on the
victory shift" operating from
ago to $40 pm.
Only those students who dem
onstrate they can maintain salts
factory scholastic averages will
be permitted to work. II their
grades drop, they'll get a polite
note advising them to devote
full time to study. Before they
are hired, permission of both
school authorities and parents
must be given.
The plan is the outgrowth of
Allis-Chalmers' summer work
program started year ago be-
cause of the manpower short
age. The firm found youths be-
tween Is and ID years of age
willing and ambitious. Blu t
President Walter Geist and
school officials were conscious
of responsibility to see that
each boy continued his educa-
ton, if possible.
Said Fred Ziegenhagen, vice
principal of Boys Technical
High School: THE chance to
earn money or future education
and to attend school at the same
time is important to many boys,
no matter what their plans may
be for the future"
Application blanks passed out
among the 1000 teen ayers at
the Allis-Chalmers plant admon-
ished the youths to return to
school. Plant officials said more
than one third expressed a desire
to work the victory shift"

Research Unearths
Bacteria Killer


ANN ARBOR, Mich, Sept. 1
-P-Scientists at the Univer-
sity of Michigan here are COOP
Grating with other research
workers to develop a new drug
which can be used as a supple
ment to penicillin.
Technically known as actino-
myces lavendulae, the drug is
like penicillin in that it would
be derived from an ordinary
bacteria that has some of the
characteristics of mold. When
fully developed, it is expected
to be effective for bacteria that
cannot be killed by penicillin.
Directed by DR.. j. E. Kempf,
the University staffs work is
being done on grant from
Parke Davis and Company,
which Is seeking to discover
whether the drug is harmful to
human tissue and how the fun
gus can best be grown and the
drug extracted.
Parke Davis will use the re-
suits of the research to produce
quantities of the drug, already
known to have the power to kill
germs of the dysentaries and ty-
phoid. After it has been pro-
duced, more experiments will
be conducted by the University
of Michigan to determine its
working value and the best
methods for its use.

ports indicate that the Army and Navy,
the War Production Board, Solid Fuels
Administration, Maritime Commission
and Selective Service have been engaging
in some acrimonious debate. Their one
point OF agreement seems to be that the
armed forces now have first priority on
manpower. The delicate balance of mil
itary and production requirements ad-
mittedly must be tipped in favor of the
former. The trouble starts when they
try to decide which production agency
shall step off the scales
According to credible reports the Bit
tereSt committee fights have ragged over
the deferment of coal miners. Finally
majority agreed to defer those miners
between % and &c who had three years
experience. This met with Army and
Navy diSapproval and brought threat
from other production representatives
that they would present an expanded list
from other industries for deferment. The
whole country ought to cross its fingers
and hope that coal production is not
essentially weakened, for coal is perhaps
the basic ingredient of our industrial
economy. It is necessary to our entire
steel production. 1t drives 95 per cent

per cent of the country's entire mechan-
ical energy. If anyone doubts the i'm
portance of coal, let him look at the con-
sequences of the British miners strike.
Electric service has been cut 10 per cent,
and artificial gas by Is per cent. AS
result, British industry, transportation
and domestic heating and lighting are
suffering partial paralysis on the eve OF

We may be past the crisis of industrial

may be easier. But so long as we need

1t is hard work, and when older men re-
