The Nome nugget., 1944-06-12
SAYS GERMANY WILL CRACK

Dr. Eduard BeneS, President of Czechoslovakia, predicts in London that it is mot at all unlikely that Germany will collapse within three months after a successful Allied invasion of Western Europe"
 The Czech leader does not believe that the Germans will permit fighting on their own soil and bases his prediction upon the theory that when Anglo Amer ican forces reach the Western German frontier and Russian forces reach the Eastern German frontier. Germany will crack wide open and refuse to fight.
 Dr. Benes says that reports reaching him from the Continent showed diSin- tegration within Germany and asserts that "between fifteen and thirty Ger man civilians are executed inside Ger many every day for expressing defeatist views and making anti-Hitler remarks.p He does not say that the Allied invasion will be promenade but professes con- fidence that it will prove disastrous to the Germans Fairbanks News-Miner).

A Proclamation!
FLAG DAY, l944

WHEREAS, the President of the United States has by virtue of proclamation established June 14th as Flag Day in the following terms:
 For many years June l4 has been set aside as Flag Day, ob- served throughout the Nation as a day of earnest rededication to those high principles of human ity and civilization which con- stitute the foundations of the Republic.
 "It is not necessary to recite that the stars and stripes of our flag symbolize the patriotic and loyal unity of one hundred and thirty five million people in a widely diversified land. Nor is il necessary to dwell on the strug- gles through which we have marched, under that flag, to our present great part in the worlds
The Nome nugget., 1944-06-12

which we oppose to the evil of our enemies. Let us display our flag, and the flags of all the United Nations which fight be- side us, to symbolize our joint brotherhood, our joint dedication, under God, to the cause of unity and the freedom of men.
 NOV, THEREFORE, I, FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT, President of the United States of America, do hereby ask that on Flag Day, June IA, 1944, the peo- pie of our Nation honor especial ly the members of the armed forces-men and women equally whose unfaitering devotion to our national ideals has given the Nations flag a new and hopeful meaning for those struggling against oppression in lands still held by our enemies.
 q direct the officials of the Federal Government and I re- quest the officials of the State and local governments to have our colors displayed on all pub lie buildings on Flag Day, and I urge the people of the United States on that day to fly the American flag from their homes, and to arrange, where feasible, for joint displays of the emblems of the freedom-loving United Nations without whose staunch collaboration we could not have hoped for victory
 NOW, THEREFORE, I, ERNEST GRUENING, Governor of Alaska,

FIFTH WAR LOAN DRIVE

A safer investment has never been known.
 There are various classes and series of bonds Series E, are best for sav- ings, for gifts, for educational funds for the children, or for self retirement plan.
 For a deferred income, SerieS E, and F, Savings Bonds, for tax purposes on income may be either deferred or ac- crued.
 The dates for the Fifth War Loan have been announced as June l2th to July 9th and today being the first day of the drive, it seems a good time to be- gin making it another successful event. We must use our hindsight and forethought to keep up or even exceed the record we have thus far established.
 The national quota is Is billion dol lars, or 2 billion more than the 4th Loan and our Alaska quota is somewhat lar ger than previously, leaving Nome to raise a total of $55,O0O
 Alaska has always exceeded its quo- ta, and we can be reasonably assured that it's total will again top the goal.
 AS citizens of Alaska and the Unit ed States, we must realize that the gov- ernment must have the money now so it is up to each and every one of us to siege the opportunity to invest all we can, and to realize interest on our invest ment. rather than be forced to give more through taxes which will not bring in- diVidual returns.
 Buy more War Bonds and keep them to maturity, you will benefit, Uncle Sam will benefit, and everybody will be glad they helped win the war.

for the scheduled landings on the coast of France by the Americans and their allies
 On June 9th, in 1917, just 27 years prior to the date set for the American landings on French soil, the first Amer jeans landed in France for World War 1,
 It was not mere coincidence which led to the choosing of this date, but the choice was left in the hands of General Ike Eisenhower, and was probably for combination of reasons.
 The Allies were ready, for one. It was as good date as any within the time set by the high command.
 On June 9th, just six days ago, the Allies landed on the French coast, and today they are making methodical, steady advances across the Cherbourg Peninsula, in Normandy, in northern France.

affairs. What we are, and what we do, speak of these things far more eloquently than any words.
 Ours is a flag of battles. On the ships of our Navy, in the van guard of our soldiers and ma rines, it is carrying liberation and succor into stricken lands. It is carrying our message of prom ise and freedom into all corners of the world.
 Ours is also a flag of peace. Under it's protection, men have found refuge from oppression.

MAN IS INTERESTING

Man is ever the most interesting ob- iect to man, and perhaps, should be the only one that interests. Whatever else surrounds us is but element in which we live, or the instrument which we en- ploy. The more we devote ourselves to such things the more we attend to them and feel concern in them, the weaker will our sense of our own dignity be- come, the weaker our feelings for so- ,iety.-(Goethe)
The Nome nugget., 1944-06-12

Under it's promise, men have found release from hatreds and prejudice, from exploitation and prosecution. It is the flag under which men and women of varied heritage, creed, and race may work and live or, if need be, fight and die together as only free men and women can.
 Let us then display our flag proudly, knowing that it symbol izes the strong and constructive ideals-the democratic ideals
The Nome nugget., 1944-06-12

call the attention of the people of Alaska to this proclamation of our President and suggest that you display not only the flag of the United States and the flags of the United Nations, but also the Alaska flag. I urge all news
 papers to give publicity to this proclamation, and all radio sta
The Nome nugget., 1944-06-12

tions to broadcast it so that it may come to the attention of all Alaskans.
