 The diesels have been placed in service on the Alaska Railroads 62 mile line connecting Whittier and Anchorage. Whittier is a port To- cated on Prince William Sound in the center of Alaska's crescent shaped southern coast. It was named for Whittier glacier near by which. in turn. was named for the poet John Greenleaf Whittier The road was built as a cutoff connecting Whittier with the Seward and An chorage line and for four miles the track runs under the Kenai Noun

launch an aggressive. nation wide speaking tour such as Wendell L. Willkie conducted four years ago.
 The reasons are;
 1. The results of the November election will depend much on the course of events in the war and at home between now and then. It would be political folly for Dewey to climb out on any limbs that might be sawed off by the rapidly changing fortunes Of war.
 2. Dewey's primary objective is to cement the Republican party into solid phalanx. He cant do this merely by tossing blockbusters at the opposition In Chicago there was period when the Dewey board of strategy was worried. The "conserV- atives' in the party, 1t appeared had delegate favor, if not delegate votes. Remembering 1940. they de- cided that something had to be done. That something was to bring Gov. John ". Bricker of Ohio into the Dewey camp as Vice-Presiden- tial nominee.
 The next step must be to heal the breach between the conservative" and Liberal" wings. Dewey al- ready has started conferences with down-east COP candidates for the House of Representatives. Sen. Ar thur H. Yandenberg of Michigan is going to visit him. If he can con- solidate his support with such con- seryatives as Vandenberg, Sen. Ro- bert A. Taft, former President Her bert Hoover and such liberals as Willkie, to mention the extreme, . there will be time then to worry a. bout cutting into the Democratic ranks with a vigorous speaking campaign.
 3. The fact that we are in the midst of a bloody global war mili- tates against any political fan dangos this year. For either Dewey or President Roosevelt to take the stump almost certainly would re- suit in repercussions from the vot- ing public. Every politician I have talked to feels that the only way the campaigns can be conducted this year will be quiet. dignified front porch" campaigns, with per-

AIR MAIL AT LAST

At long last Wrangell and Peters burg are out of the isolation woods and on the air mall map Of the north.
 Since the war started and the usual mail steamers were forced in- to the more important duties oi winning a war, mail service to and 1rom Mrangeu and Petersburg has been one Of those things due 10 lew mail carrying vessels which stop here. Petersburg was worse Off than Wrangall for 1t didn't even get 1he Canadian boats and had to get a shuttle route established to pick up the mail rom the Canadian boats at Wrangen. It has been not a bit unusual 10 have the mail stack up in the Post Office for lO-day periods, hoping for a boat which would carry it south. Thanks to AL aska Coastal AirIines of Juneau and Ellis Air Lines or Ketchikan, some mail was dispatched by plane, but it was irregular and unsatisfactory to the carriers. the Post Office and the public.
 But now We are oW of the woods, The Post Office Department has seen fit to contract with Alaska Coastal for regular twice-daily air mail service over the Southeast route including Juneau, Peters burg, Wrangell and Ketchikan. Not only air mail moves over the route but ordinary first class can be dis patched to Ketchikan and Juneau. where more mail vessels call, and thus be speeded oR it's way to the States.
 Wrangell and Petersburg were perhaps tke most isolated mail points in the Territory, prior to the establishment of the new service last Sunday. Virtually every village in the Interior and Westward could get better service Co and from the States than could central South east AIaska's two major towns be- cause the mail goes by air in those regionA .mn.aa..a
 But now we've got it, and the point is to keep it. Post Office De- partment has stipulated that the new mail route is a temporary one. In other words, the mail officials want to gee how it will pan out for one year.
 It is the belief of this newspaper that nothing should be left undone fo sea that thia mail route is made a permanent service. Every cooper ation should be given the carriers te see that they have proper places to land and leave their planes when the pilots have to call at the var ious Post Offices. The individual communities should let the Post Off, flee Department know they appre- ciate the sarvice, and they should use the service, for it is largely the

volume of mail which determines the permanent establishment of Q mail route. Obviously, the Post Of- flee Department is Of the belief the service is warranted at present. The volume of mail flowing over it should be such that there will be no doubt at the end of the mail contract year of it being considered Ian essential route.
 If you appreciate the air mail service. tell the Post Office Depart ment. tell the carrierss and tell 'em by air mail to keep up your volume.

WASHINGTON-There are just as many new faces at the Democratic convention in Chicago this year as were turned up by the Republicans
 So lar as national politics is con- cerned, Democratic National Com mittee Chairman Robert E. Hanni- gan of St. Louis is a Johnny-cOme- lately. Since he was handpieked by the President, it's a safe bet that he will be continued in office to match strategic wits with Gov. Thomas E. Dewey's Herbert Brow nell. also virtually unknown out side his own state.
 In naming a permanent chairman the Democrats have gone the Re publicans one better in the matter of new faces. Rep. Joseph W. Martin Jr. of Massachusetts was repeating job he had done before when he picked up the gaYel at Chicago in June. Moreover, as minority leader in the House he has been familiar to all party members for years.
 Selection of Sen. Samuel D. Jack son of Indiana for the same post in the Democratic convention, how ever, sent reporters scurrying to the files. Although he has been active in Indiana politics for 25 years, there isn't any record that he was elect ed to any office. He served as at- torney general for a while, by ap- pointment; and he came to the Sem ate the same way appointed by Gov. Henry F. Schricker to succeed the late Frederick Van Nuys.
 To match first-term Gov. Earl Warren of California as keynoter, the Democrats have big, bluff Gov. Robert s. Kerr of Oklahoma, also a first termer and certainly a new face as far as national politics goes.
 This emphasis on new faces is quite a departure for the Demo crats. It may be construed in a number of ways. but one Of them certainly must be tkat the Prest- dent and party leaders are eager to show the voters that they are not just out to peddle the same old pea nuts at the same old stand.
 The board of strategy at the con- vention is bound to be different too. It's almost contain now that Harry Hopkins. who aroused ami mostly among the delegates at Chi cago in I94O by his ''smoke-filled room" operations, won't be present. Hopkins health won't permit it, even if the President had any de- sire to have Hopkins repeat, which White House observers say very def initely he doesn't.
 If the President selects compar- ative newcomer in the place of Vice President Wallace, the slate be- heath the name of the chief execu- tive and with the exception of Byrnes would be just as clean or old chalk marks as that which pop ped up in Chicago last month.

Patton Receives
Praise From
CAPTURED German

WASHINGTON, Oct. IA (UP) -
The war department Saturday
quoted a captured German officer
as saying that Lieutenant General
George S. Patton, commander of
the U. s. Third army, lis for the
American army what Rommel stands
for in the German army"
This tribute" to Patton came
from German colonel in an SIS
unit who had fought extensively
in Russia. and who was seized by
the hard hitting U, S. Fourth arm
ored division, part Of Patton's Third
army while training in Britain but
attached to the First army after
landing in Normandy.
Il must admit the American
troops are not only equipped with
the best material, but what strikes
me especially is the excellent Or
ganization under which these men
function" the colonel is quoted as
saying.
Il would be pleased to know the
commander of this particular divi-
sion, and I am sure it must be part
of Gen. Patton's Third army. Gen,
Patton is for the American army
what Rommel stands for in the Ger
man army"
