for Joe 'Curley" Bradley who spent
his boyhood doing ranch and range

horse.

ranch near Coalgate, Oklahoma, Joe
went to the village school and spent
his evenings learning to play the
guitar and to Groom plaintive cow
boy ballads. While still in his teens
he was caught by the wanderlust
and headed for Hollywood where he
got job singing and riding as a
double for the late film idol, John
Gilbert. 1t was there that he made
his radio debut, singing Wild West
favorites on Los Angeles station in

met two other cowboy actors who
could sing. After the days work
was done, the trio used to sing west

harmonizing was SO popular that
they decided to make a business of

Something is going to happen to Alaska after the war But nobody seems to agree on just what's going to happen.
 In October Governor Gruening said in Seattle that Alaska will gain a million in population inn medately after the
 Soon after this the United States Employment Service offices in Alaska and in Seattle stated that too many people coming to Alaska already and there was unemployment in Alaskan towns
 Recently numerous authors, writing Alaska have hailed the Territory as the promised land for settlement for the veterans of this war
 Other writers have painted beautiful pictures of the unlimited opportunities for the expansion of industry to Alaska.
 But at the time the Interior Department seems to be doing it's to discourage any develop ment of the Territoryfirs through the reservation hearings scare in the form of a bill in Congress that would put all tidelands in Alaska under the control of the Secretary of the Interior Under the new tidelans bill leases to tideands would be granted revoked by the Secretary of the Interior depending upon his judgment All land in Alaska, of course is of no good without to the ands the tieland-hence passage of this bill would in effect give whoever happened to be the administrative officer of the Interior Department control of all lands in Alaska.

Alaskans pour into the offices of Territorial and Federal officials in Alaska, to our Delegate from Alaska, to the Interior Department in Washington DC
 In the last year especially there has been encour- agement of large-scae migration of returning service men and others to Alaska
 But according to recent edition of the Wall Street Journal soldiers who flood the Interior De- partment with hopeful letters get this dscouraging advice
 "The undeveoped northland support only 2oOO more families in the immediate postwar years"
 The Interior Department explains further Its still too far from markets for profitable farming, mining and timber cutting"
 So our million shrinks to few. thousand.
 All right How is the Interior Department going to take care of the 2000 families? Private enterprise has been discouraged by the Departments policy for the development in Alaska The truth is that the Interior Department is going to ask Congress for almost four million dollars for IS months work by Alaska development advisory commission.
 Does this mean then that Alaska is to be developed by another Federal bureau at the cost of $20o0 new Alaskan family?
 It seems to us rather contradictory to have, the one hand, commissions studying ways and means to develop Alaskas resources, and the Interior De- partment, the other hand, devisng ways and to discourage capital from venturing into the development of the same resources
 The Congressmen who attended the recent Interior Department hearings in Alaska and Seattle should have ample evidence of the discouragement of capital policy of the Interior Department Will they, and their colleagues support appropriation of $4 mil lion for promoting the development of Aaska's resources while cabinet officer is discouragng capital from expanding to the Territory?

RUSSIAN ANSWER TO JAP PROTEST

The American crew was extreme ly well treated in Russia, and was not held long. Shortly after ar rivel, the entire crew was flown to Alaska by Clyde Pangborn, thence came back to the United States.
 The fact that the crew was not interned was not kept sufficiently secret and, before long, reached Tokyo. A protest was lodged in Moscow. The Russians replied that the United States airmen were being held and that, as a neutral, Russia had no choice but to hold them.
 The Japs then asked to be taken to the prison camp where the bomber crew was imprisoned. The Russians, however, retreated behind Governmental secrecy, replying "of course, you know that no foreigners have been allowed in that part of Siberia for years. It's IS years since any foreigners have gone near the section where this prison camp is located"

House recently and got some real low-down on the prospects of a sharp increase in unemployment next year unless prompt measures are taken to prevent it.
 Kaiser, who is enthusiastic about Roosevelt's hopes of '60,000,000 jobs after the war" rushe d into the White House with postwar job program of his own He told FOR he could swing it if he got gov- ernmental go-ahead on reconver- sion
 Roosevelt told Kaiser he was de- lighted to hear of his plans, but asked if Kaiser wasn't getting a little too far out in front, with the war still in progress.
 No, MT President" said Kaiser. We've got to go to work on this right away I may have half my shipyards closed down by June; so unless I and other war pro- ducers can guarantee workers jobs, our manpower is going to leave us. In fact, we've lost too many men already. Our workers are trying to get peacetime work even though the war is a long way from being over. They don't want to be left holding the bag
 But Henry" said the President, your contracts run all through next year, don't they?'
 "Oh, mo-" said Kaiser Most of them are scheduled now to wind up in June or July Besides, they all have cancellation clauses and we don't want to be caught short.

HOROSCOPE E "The stars incline

TUESDAY. DECEMBER 5

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 5 This is not an important day in planetary government. Merchants are under a fairly promising sign but shoppers maye be difficult to please
 HEART AND HOME: Disap- pointment connected with letters is indicated. Girls should pursue rou- tine tasks. Many changes for wo- men employed in war industries is prog nostic te d. Wage earners should be careful in holiday spend ing.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Holders of real estate should not grumble about taxes, for the stars presage great rise in values in the spring. There is a sign read as indicating temporary acceptance of many refugees and growth of population owing to post : war exigencies, but many distinguished Europeans will seek permanent homes in this country
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Although large percentage of wartime nasty marriages will prove successful, many divorces are foretold for the coming year when domestic read justments will be difficult. The stars presage a revival of reverence for the marriage contract and in- creased realization of its spiritual significance.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: Spain comes under influences con- ducive to revolutionary uprisings. Franco's power is likely to diminish rapidly and finally to vanish.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of mixed experiences. Happiness and pros perity will follow serious uncer- tainties.
 Children born on this day prob- ably will be affectionate, depend able and industrious. They may be sensitive and easily aroused to anger.

TIME FOR RECoNvERsIoN

Kaiser then explained how thousands of other contracts may collapse next year on short notice, putting millions of workers on the street.
 In reply Roosevelt quoted War Mobilizer Jimmy Burnes to the eff feet that there was plenty of time to plan for reconversion.
 To this Kaiser declared that Byrnes was over optimistic, and probably hadn't been able to study the picture carefully enough. Kaiser also pointed out that a good busi- ness man taperS off his work sev- eral months before a contract ends, so that even when contracts last until July, lay-offs start in March.
 The upshot of all this was two- fold. First, Roosevelt authorized Kaiser to make an appeal to war workers to stay on the job, assure them that adequate consideration would be given to keeping them at work in the postwar period Sec ond, Roosevelt promised he would review the reconversion picture himself and take prompt action tc see that industry is given greater opportunity to plan for speedy re- conversion.
 Big fly in the reconversion oint. ment is that Byrnes is overloaded with work, plans to quit after tht defeat of Germany, can't get hi heart or his teeth into the post. war side of his job.

 Finally, the Russian officer stop ped him. In fairly good English, he said: "Yes, we know all about the bombing of Tokyo. And we knew one plane was in trouble and might be heading this way. We came out to see if we could find you
 The bomber crew started to climb into the tanks when sudden ly a column of tanks appeared from the opposite direction. A Jap officer came running toward the Russians, shouting, This is Japa- nese territory. We demand the sur render of the Americans"
 The Russian major immediately dug cut his maps, insisting he was on Soviet soil The argument ragged in German for several minutes, un- til finally the Jap angrily stalked off, ordering his tanks to fire. This was answered by volley from the Russian tanks, both aiming at the sky. The Russian tanks then drove on, leaving the airplane behind.
 They had been going at fast clip for about half an hour, when the Russian Major turned to the American pilot and said:
