CROSSROADS OF THE WORLD'

The Anchorage Chamber of Commerce recently issued handsome 10-page folder to be distributed to prospective Alaskans in the States The bulletin is called Anchorage Crossroads of the World" We offer a few of the items contained therein:
 Federal expenditures during the present war have had the effect of boom but this should not be mistaken by those planning to come to Anchorage as being the yardstick of permanent prosperity.
 "The city government is sound financially and is in a position to finance up to million dollars worth of public construction it is possible and wise More than million dollars worth of private construction is already being planned.
 Anchorage has more planes per capita than any other city under the American flag and has the busiest airport in the Territory There is one plane to every 40 persons
 The biggest Rainbow trout in the world come from Russian and Newhaen rivers near Anchorage. Huge gamey fish 30 inches long that will fight for hour not uncommon. It is customary for local fishermen, for records to throw back fish under 25 inches"

GERMAN COMMUNICATIONS
 SHATTERED

German prisoners captured in France now reveal the terrific handicaps faced by the Nazis in attempting to defend the crumbling walls of the European continent.
 These prisoners say it took the Nazis five days to move five di- visions the few hundred miles be- tween Berlin and Paris immediate ly after D-Day. The delay result ed from the great damage to rail- roads and highways caused by underground units and Allied air power.
 Just north of Paris, communica- tions were so badly destroyed that the Nazis had to disembark their five full divisions from trains, and take nine additional days to move the divisions by foot and motor transport to the Normandy battle front.

HOROSCOPE "The stdrs incline
 but do not compel"
SUNDAY, AUGUST 20

Benefic aspects rule today, al though Uranus may exercise certain adverse influences. The clergy, es- pecially chaplains in the armed services, should benefit.
 HEART AND HOME: AS the habit of prayer grows among civil ians and members of the armed forces, the understanding of psy- chic and occult influences will grow. The human race having learned how to dominate the phy- sical world will seek higher plane Iof consciousness.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Employ ment for returning soldiers will be of paramount importance in the business world. Growth of mind and scope of ambition will mark many young men who come back from war fronts with changed ideals of life. Many will seek new vacations after declining their old jobs in offices or shops.
 NATIONAL ISSUES Amazing stamina will be apparent in Ameri- can boys and girls who face their future responsibilities as citizens. The Autumn will afford evidence that our manpower after victory will be able to keep the ship of state on even keel.
 1 INTERNATIONAL A F F A R $ Nazi propaganda will be focused on reports of United Nations mistakes ! at critical points, as the push to- ward victory gains in power. It must be remembered that truth is seldom adhered to in Axis news from the fronts. Evil portents multiply in Hitler's horoscope.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of haz- ards in which deception causes losses. Risks should be avoided. ] Children born on this day prob ably vii be talented and ambitious but their careers may be frequently affected by unusual obstacles.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1944-08-19
MONDAY, AUGUST 21

Promse of cheering news is in- dicated by an aspect this morning.
 HEART AND HOME: Under this configuration there may be high nervous tension that causes family discord. This is day to relax and to avoid unnecessary work The simple life and contact with nature will heal many sor- rows. Whatever is superfluous in the daily routine should be dis carded.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Growing numbers of prisoners and needy inhabitants of liberated towns will greatly increase the demand for food and new taxes will really hurt, it is forecast The planets presage progress toward universal brother hood which assures cheerful giving. 1 NATIONAL ISSUES: Wom n candidates who are successful in the coming national election will win by narrow margins. A few will gain seats in legislative bodies and thus will encourage future, ef-, forts toward equality of representa- ton among lawmakers.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS Jupiter and Venus are in aspects that seem to presage severe and pro.racted fight in defeating Japan. After United Nations victory over Germany, it is predicted, it will be discovered Hitler had provided sub stantial aid in men and arms to- our Pacific foe.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of per- plexities that will entail caution and wise decisions. Health should be watched.
 Children born on this day prob. ably will be individualistic and in dependent, temperamental and diff ficult to understand Carefully edu- cated. they will attain extraordin- ary success in their careers.

 The Army explains that Gable has completed his assignment and that there is no other similar work to be done If he were ser geant and could turn a camera, . said an Army spokesman, we wouldn't let him go. We need cameramen. But he's a major and is not permitted to turn a camera. 9
 Isn't rank supposed to be cosu- mensurate with value to the Army?" the War Department spokesman was asked

 The Coast Guard admits, with equal frankness, that its over-age enlisted men have almost no chance of being released from ser vice at their own request.
 NOTE-No criticism of Gable or Vallee is intended. Gable entered the service as a buck private, went through officer candidate school, and won his commission the hard way. While on duty, he made nu- merous bombing trips over Ger

American women" he said, have done themselves proud in this war period. They have left their homes, at great sacrifice, to work in the war plants and on the farms to be sure the men who are doing the fighting get the weapons and the food they need. They have gone into the armed forces to speed victory. The willingness and cheerful spirit of American women will be one of the brightest pages in our war history"
 Then, suddenly, the South Da- kota Senator paused and came to the real point he was aiming at.
 These women,'' he said, must go back to the home and the farm. The unemployment benefits called for in this bill would cause many women to try to remain in indus try, and that is one of the evils of the bill"
 Gurney's idea about women is causing real concern among many legislators. They fear that post war industry will not have enough jobs for all male applicants, even without the competition of thou sands of women who were never self-supporting before the war.

OVER-AGE OFFICERS

Enlisted men over 33 in the arm ed services are pressuring authori- ties to permit them the same right of resignation enjoyed by oyer-age officers. As things stand now, their chances of getting out of uniform are generally poor. If they have an essential job in in- dustry waiting for them, their chances are about 50-5O.
 The recent retirement of Major Clark Gable and Coast Guard Lieu tenant Rudy Vallee, both widely puhlicized, has added fuel to the fire. Gable IS returning to movie
