 The Twentieth Air Force reported clouds obscured the targets. The big force possibly of 300 Super forts, relied chiefly on instrument bombing.

 FIRE THIS MORNING

Fire at 4:30 o'clock this morn- ing in the focsle of the Yakobi destroyed three hunks, mattresses, bedding, life preserverS and per- sonal effects. Damage is estimated at several hundred dollars.
 The Juneau Volunteer Fire De- pertinent was at the scene of the fire for over an hour.
 It is thought that the blaze was accidentally started by a passen- ger who shortly before the alarm had gone abloard the vessel and kindled fire in the galley stove One other passenger was asleep aboard the craft. The ownr, Martin Feist, was not on the Yakobi when the fire was discovered
 Coast Guard units assisted in ex- tinguishing the blaze, picket boat being called to the Ferry Float where the Yakobi was moored, and one guardsman, with gas mask and hose went aboard the vessel. After the fire had been put out, the Coast Guard unit stood by and pumped out the vessels bilge.

NAVY NOW NEAR PEAK
 STRENGTH
Draft Calls for May, June Cut in Half Action Re-
 fleets Fewer Casualties

WASHINGTON, April 4.-The Navy has halved it's May draft call and may ask still fewer men in June. It is expected that the Navy action will reduce overall Selective Service calls by l2 per cent or more from the current rate of about l32,0OO men per month.
 Halving of the navys requirements will put its May call at roughly 16,- 900 men. Two reasons given for the reductions are: Enlistments of IT, year-olds in the Navy at higher rate than expected and that peak strength is being achieved more rap idly than had been anticipated, in- dicating that casualties may not have been as numerous as calculat- ed.
 Peak strength for the Navy set at about 3,60000o men, is now expected to be reached by July l.

ROTARY SHOW IS FOR BENEFIT 0FCITY SCOUTS

Tickets for Whole Towns Talk ing" are in great demand, but there are many would-be purchasers who don't seem to know just where they can be secured. This was the state ment made this morning by Brooks Hanford, general chairman of the production on behalf of the Rotary Club, which is sponsoring the show for the benefit of the local Scouting program.
 Those who have not already se- cured their tickets for Thursday or Friday nights performance" said Hanford, may buy them from any member of either the Rotary or the Lions Club. Or they may also be purchased at J. B. Burford Co.,, Juneau Drug Co.,, Harry Race, Drug giSt, The Baranof Hotel, The Gas tineau Hotel, Parsons Electric Co.,, Sanitary Meat Co.,, or the Twentieth Century Meat Market. Any unsold tickets on the night of either per- formance may also be obtained at the Colesium Theatre box office"
 Last night the first of the two full dress rehearsals was held. To- nights final rehearsal will mark the end of nearly six weeks or thorough preparation by the cast of twelve players who are determined to give Juneau it's most entertaining thea trical production in many years.
 Buy your tickets" urged Han- ford, primarily because of the en- tertainment values in Whole Towns Talking It is being given for your enjoyment, However, at the same time, remember that the proceeds are for the benefit of the Scouting Program for the girls and boys of the community. In other words this is fine entertainment in great cause"

 Reporter

LONDON, April 4.-Bernard Bar uch, adviser to President Roosevelt, said "one reason I'm over here is to hold the big stick over the big boys and make damn sure they're not going to foul up the peace
 Baruch, who found a park bench this time in Hyde Park to hold forth with American soldiers, mildly brushed off a call on Churchill to give an interview to a Stars and Stripes reporter. We've got to de- industralize Germany and Japan for at least generation so they won't resort to war again. Also we've got to see that those subsidized slave la bor countries don't again flood the world with cheap products, lowering the standard of living in the United Nations said Baruch in interviews with Victor Lasky, Army newspaper reporter.
 Baruch predicted that there would be such a wave of prosperity in the United States after the war that none of the servicemen overseas need have worry about job.
 During an interview, the finan- cier's secretary phoned him from his suite of rooms in the Claridge and told him the Prime Minister was calling.
 Hello Winston, this is Bernie, 3 Baruch said. Look, Winston, I'm busy this afternoon. I'll drop over later"
 Baruch spent the morning just chewing the fat" with some soldiers on bench in Hyde Park and said when he returned to the United States he is going to investigate charges that rehabilitation plans and hospitals for veterans are made quate.

Cotton. Its Price and Roisins is a
matter of vital Importance to us in
this section, Numerous students of
the subject have warned us that it
will not do to expect the Federal
Government to continue to hold the
price the farmer gets for his crop to
something like twice the world
price which it is doing now. What
will happen to us when subsidies in
some of the numerous forms stops
coming is anybody's guess. Our cot
ton price has for several years been
above the world price. An indirect
result has been encouragement to
other countries to raise cotton and
we have definitely lost control of the
world market. We supply about a
third of world needs for cotton
whereas formerly we supplied four
fifths, or more. Our statesmen for
long sought to have the tariff re-
duced to a point where it would
serve for revenue only and found
themselves against stone wall,
they couldn't touch the tariff. The
alternative was a subsidy in some
form to the farmer to offset the high
price he had to pay, for all the
goods he bought, because of the
tariff. Now we have the subsidy and
the North has the tariff and the
national debt sores to fantastic
heights and shows no sign of be-
ing at the op. How it is to be paid
is an interesting question that bids
fair to become acute before long.
