ence that a Japanese balloon had
been sighted high in the sky over
this area, appearing just like a
bright spot in the sky" was one
persons version of what was seen.
The height of the object was es-
timated as $1,000 feet at Casa
Grande.
The information was relayed to
U. S. Army Intelligence and to
the county sheriff's office, and var
ious stories about the visitor in the
sky were checked.
Results - nil - something was
seen, but no one knows, or will
tell if they do know, just what was
seen to create the excitement
However, when one person re-
ported that the "spot" in the sky
was near the moon, which was Wis
ible at about one o'clock in the
MONDAY sky, it was found that the
planet Venus was also visible and
the possibility then existed that
the balloon" or bright colored
object high in the sky, was the
planetary representative of our old
friend, the GOODIES of love.
The later explanation would tend
to account for the fact that the
visitor" was apparently seen at
places so or more miles apart at
approximately the same time.
But, perhaps we are just kidding
ourselves and it was a Japanese
balloon carrying demolition, or in
cendary bombs after ALL
Yo no Sc, as our friend Juan
would put it.

again into its historic position as the Territory's second largest in dustry. It is idle to assume the gold miner, who receives a fixed price for his product, can success fully absorb the added costs which would be brought about by higher freight and passenger rates.
 "If it should be demonstrated at the Seattle hearing that in creased rates are necessary either one of two things must be done:
 q. The Government must con- tinue to operate ships in the Alas ka trade and absorb whatever def icits may result, or
 "2. The Government must pay a subsidy to private carriers.
 "Of the two methods, I person ally prefer the second, but it must be remembered a subsidy for coastwise trade is unique and would be tremendously difficult to obtain. Whatever the difficult ties, it is the clear duty of the Federal Government to stop talk ing in generalities about Alaska's development and to do something constructive"

DeCaulle To a Resign As
 French President

PARIS, Nov. 16 - PD - De- Gaulle's office announced the gen. eral had decided to resign as in terim president of France because of his inability to compromise diff ferences in the Communist party and form a coalition government.
 DeGaulle's decision grew out of a demand of the Communist party, the most important single politi- cal group in the newly elected constituent assembly, for key cab inet posts and proposed a three party coalition government. De- Gaulle was elected unanimously by the constituent assembly Tues day to serve as president during the creation of the fourth repub- lie.

Alaska Marine Rates To Be Investigated
Continued from Page One)

Continued from Page One) be increased further.
 Even before the war, Alaskans were heavily burdened by high shipping charges. During the war surcharges running up to forty five per cent were imposed. Sur charges are still in effect, although they have been reduced. I never believed, and do not now believe Alaskans should ever have been required to pay one cent of sur charge because the need for these additional charges was, in large degree, occasioned by the fact that Alaska was in a war zone, and, therefore, it always seemed to me to be one of the costs of war which should have been assessed against all the taxpayers of the nation. Alaska was able to survive economically only because of de- fenSe work.
 'NOw, if we are to have to en- ter into the postwar world with marine transportation costs fan tastically higher than ever before when in all truth they were ex- orbitantly high in comparison with water rates elsewhere even before the war-we might as we'll forget about talking about Alaska as land of opportunity for the returning veteran. It will be a land of opportunity for no one. Next year gold mining will move
