 OF VETERANS 1S 5TARTED
Weekly Payments of S2O for Year Advocated
 by Congressman
By William Arbogast

WASHINGTON, May 3-A vet erans' bonus drive, with an esti- mated $1l,OO0 100000 price tag att tached, is in full swing on Capitol Hill.
 It got off to a flying start under the guidance of Representa- tive Rankin, Democrat, Mississippi, chairman of the House Veterans Committee and one of the framers of the G.I. Bill of Rights.
 It calls for payment of S20 a week for year to any member of the armed services who served 90 days or more since September Is, 1940, and was not. dishonor- ably discharged.
 The Mississippian declined to es- innate its cost but said it would be easy for anyone to calculate.
 On the basis of S1,040 each for the more than 10000,000 men and women eligible, the total would be in the neighborhood of $11 ,000,000,- 900.

{. OF(. VOTES HITLER TOOK
 FOR AMENDED OWN LIFE E BARTLETT BILL REPORT NOW
Chamber Endorses Reve- nue Bond Measure with
 Provision for Vote

By a narrow margin, 27 yeas to 22 nays, the Juneau Chamber of Commerce today voted condi- tional endorsement of Delegate E.. l.. Bartlett's H. R. 2704, the bill now before Congress to empower the Common Councils of Alaska cities to issue Revenue Bonds.
 The vote was taken on the ques- tion of adopting the recommenda- ton of the c of c Executive Board, that the Juneau Chamber go on record in favor of the measure, provided it is amended to require the submission of such Council action to the taxpayers for approval, upon petition of 15 per cent of the taxpaying voters. The requested amendment would fur ther provide for approval by the voters under conditions now gen. erally applied by Congress to Gen eral Obligation bond issues by AL aSka cities, including the fequlre- ment for consent of 55 per cent of the taxpayers voting.
 At the request Of Chamber Presl- dent w. M. Whitehead, Attorney Howard D. Stabler outlined the reasons for the position taken by the Executive Board: The basic purpose of these would, he said, generally result in greater home rule, since it would strike limita- tions now placed by Congress on the powers of Alaska cities to bond themselves. The principal weakness, he brought out, is the possibility of Councils making unprofitable investments, which might result

WAR CRIMINALS ARE GOING TO
 RE PROSECUTED
Truman Says Cohorts of Hitler and Mussolini
 Must Come 10 Trial

WASHINGTON, May 3.--Robbed by death of his two prize defen- dants, Robert H. Jackson neverthe- less set out today to bring to military justice the arch war crimes cohorts Jf Hitler and Mussolini.
 President Truman announced the selection of the Supreme Court Jus tice yesterday as this country's chief prosecutor of those whose offenses in Europe have been so widespread they have mo particular geograph- ical localization."
 Hitler's and Mussolini's death, MT. Truman said, means that happily the two principal war criminals will not have to come to trial. But there are others, he said, and they must be brought to book.

Nazi Chief, Propag andd Minister GoebbeIs, Gen.
 Krebs Are Suicides
By ROMNEY WHEELER Associated Press Correspondent

LONDON, May 3.--Adolf Hitler, who vowed to rule the world, com mitted suicide in the ruins of Ber- lin with Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph Goebbels and the Chief of the German General Staff, Gen. Hans Krebs, a Soviet communique said today
 The Russians declared their in formant was Hans Fritsche, Goeb- bels' chief lieutenant, who was cap tured as Berlin feli. It was presum- ed that Russian commanders on the scene would make vigorous inquiry to obtain indisputable proof
 Whether Hitler was a suicide or whether he was the victim of a brain hemorrhage, a possibility reported by Supreme Allied Headquarters, there was little doubt among Allied leaders that the Fuehrer indeed was dead and that he had met death in a manner which would thwart any die-hard Nazi attempt to build a Wagnerin legend about him
 A statement authorized by the Su- preme Allied Command told of a secret meeting eight days ago at Luebeck, Germany, between Ges- tapo Chief Heinrich Himmler and Swedish Count Folke Bernadotte, re- puted peace go-between, at which Himmler was reported to have said Hitler is so ill he might already be dead
 Himmler was quoted as saying Hitler at that time could not live more than two days longer
 These reports gave the lie to a Nazi propaganda campaign to con- vince the world that Hitler died at the head of his troops in Berlin Command Post in the Reichs Chan csllery, fighting to the last against BolsheviSm.

Collapse of German Re- sistdnce in Northern
 Pocket Announced
By Austin Bealmear Press War CorrespondenD

Associated Press War CorrespondenD
 PARIS, May 3-Hamburg sur rendered to the British Army today and Marshal Stalin announced from Moscow the collapse of German resistance in the entire northern German pocket east of Kiel
 Stalins Order of the Day said link with. the British had been established along 60-mile front from the Baltic to Wittenberge on the Elbe after the overwhelming of the last German resistance on the Mecklenburg Plain.
 Remnants of one beaten German division after another surrendered as the war in Europe drew toward a close.
 Denmark and Norway were iso- lated by the British Russian june tion.
 Rocket-firing RAF Typhoons de- stroyed four vessels and damaged more than 50 when they. attacked the German escape armadas, rang ing from motor torpedo boats to l0,000-ton cargo liners. The waters around Kiel. Trlensburg and Lubeck were dotted with burning ships, pilots reported About 900 vehicles were destroyed or damaged.
 The largest of many German death traps were shrinking in the south, where Gen. Eisenhower's three-army assault moved close to a junction with the Russians in eastern Austria The Third Army moved to within 39 miles of Ber- chteSgaden and the Seventh closed to within seven of Innsbruck.
 The Seventh Army got astride a super-f1ighway east of Munich and it's third division raced to within 27 miles of both Berchtes- gaden and Salzburg in a drive across the Inn River from the west. Heavy snowdrifts delayed the ad- fdAiOC Oil liIioOl QCh. SiVilldll iClu- gees said the garrison there was ready to surrender but that SS troops were preparing to defend the western edge of the Tyrol capital.
 The Third Army, after captur- ing Passau and Hitler's birthplace of Braunau, stabbed to within 16 miles of Linz, third city of Austria Moving along a 70-mile front, the Third Army crossed the Inn River at half dozen places. The Thun- derbolt Eleventh Armored) Divi- sion, fought through melting snow toward junction with. the Rus sians west of Vienna, who were fighting in that area.

FIGHTING IN NO. ITALY |S
 NOW AT END
New Zealand Troops 01- tupy Trieste as Million
 Nazis Surrender
By Noland NOrgard
Issociated Press War Correspondent

ROME, May = With fighting ended in northern Italy, New zea- land troops stepped into disputed Istria today and occupied the port of Trieste and the Isonzo River town of Gorizia, 20 miles to the northwest.
 '"Fighting has ceased in northern Italy west of the Isonzo River with the unconditional surrender of all enemy troops under the command of German Army Group C." said an Allied H e d quarters com- munique. There remain only the multitudinous administrative de- tails of assembling and disarming scattered and disorganized rem nants of the proud Wehr- machL'
 Gen. Heinrich von Vietinghoff- Scheel, whose representatives signed an agreement for the unconditional surrender of almost 1,000,0 ,000 troops Sunday, was expected to come out of the hills to give up personally.
 Marshal Tito's Yugoslav Partisans had been reported fighting Ger mans in Trieste earlier and the Italian Government, through its press bureau, had voiced uneasiness. Italy demanded that the port, whose possession was disputed after the last World War, be placed under control of Field Marshal Sir Harold Alexander's forces pending a postwar settlement.
 The Allied Command said that more than 230,000 prisoners had been taken prior to the capitula- tion, and that hostilities had ended in the area of von Vietinghoffs command west of the Isonzo River.
