WAR BOND DRIVE
OFF, GOOD START
Jimmy DooIiitIe Says JAP
an Must Feel Weightto
Force Surrender

WASHINGTON, May 16.-The
Treasury Department announced the
Seventh war loan drive is getting
off to a good start. The sale OF
Series "E" bonds totalled 991 mil
lion dollars even before the drive
got under way officially the past
Monday. This was made possible
by the advance payroll savings plan
under which many Americans buy
their bonds.
Speaking of bonds, here's a state
ment from the famous filler, Lieut.
enant General James Doolittle. Says
he: Japan will feel the weight OF
millions of purchases of war bonds
during the Seventh war loan. There
can be no let-up in either bombs or
war bonds until the Tokyo war lords
surrender"

AUDITS BILL IS =
DECLARED VOID
Measure Passed by Last
Legislature Ruled Out
by Rivers

Requests for an opinion as to the
validity of Chapter 40, Session Laws
of Alaska 1945, the much jugglec
ADULTS Measure" Senate Bill No
So, passed by the last Legislature
has brought advice concerning the
measure from Attorney General
Ralph j. Rivers, that the bill. as
passed, is invalid, it was disclosed
today.
Neither the enrolled or engrossed
copies of the bill carries any ZEN
acting clause" and it is on that
ground that the law has been de-
clared ineffective.
The effect of the Attorney Gen
erals opinion is to retain in full
force the law passed by the 1913
Legislature, which places respons-
Utility for securing an audit of the
books of all Territorial offices, de-
partments and institutions in the
Governor of Alaska. Also unaffected
by the invalid act is separate
1887 enactment charging the Audi
tor with auditing the accounts of
Territorial institutions. The bill
passed by the last Legislature, and
which has been ruled out, would
have transferred Ill responsibility
for auditing the Territory's books to
the Board of Administration.
In his opinion, Mr.. Rivers has
cited:
THE purpose of an enacting
clause is to declare that what fol-
lows is made law, and the authority
by which it is given that character.
The matter is covered in Section 8
of the Alaska Organic Act as fol-
lows:
THAT the enacting clause of all
laws passed by the Legislature shall
be-"Be it enacted by the Legisla-
ture Of the Territory of Alaska
I'm prescribing the exact language
of the enacting clause of all laws
passed by the Legislature Congress
implied there had to be -. some
enacting language to bring a
law into existence.
"As Senate Bill No. SO has no
enacting clause whatsoever /. !.
Therefor it is not law, and previous
Acts and parts of Acts which it
purports to repeal are still in full
force and effect"

AEF. PARIS, May l6-The Allies
do not recognize the Doenitz re-
CINE as the constitutional govern
ment of Germany and are plan
ming a long, strict military occupa-

plain here today.
Mai. Gen. Lucius D. Clay Gen
Eisenhowers deputy for the occu-
patton of Germany, said the Am
erican aims were to smash all
vestages of Nazism and Germanys
war-making potential, and to see
that all war criminals are caught
and punished,
Supreme Headquarters said for
mally of the Germans who sue
ceeded the Hitler regime just be-
fore the unconditional surrender
Admiral Doenitz and certain
other selected Germans are being
used temporarily to carry out duties
in connection with the feeding,
disarmament and medical care OF
German armed forces. These Ger
man officers are fully controlled
and are there solely to carry out
instructions of the Allied Expedi-
tionary Force"
Clay said accused war criminals
such as Goering were being gath
cred in prison areas where they
would be less forta BILE. "a
Reuters dispatch quoted Clay as
saying Doenitz also was being held
as a prisoner Of war; German Of

rebuilding devastated European
areas. He said food would be scarce

GI Bill OF RIGHTS
IS Big FRAUD SAYS
VETERANS OFFICIAL
Too Many Qualifications
Written Into Loan
Clauses

CHICAGO, May 16-An official
of the Disabled American Veterans
said here that the Gil Bill 81 Rights
lis the biggest fraud ever thrust
upon the American public and the
American veteran"
Capt. Cicero Hogan of Cincinnati
Assistant National Adjutant of the
Day, said in an interview There
is more transformation handed out
regarding veterans laws and bene-
fits than on any other subject
known, except the income tax"
Capt. Hogan made his remarks
preceding his talk to the National
Association of Personnel Directors,
which sponsored a conference on
assisting veterans and war workers
on problems of current and postwar
VI Day job selection.
The CT Bill guarantees a $4,000
loan to the veteron, $4,000 of 1t
guaranteed by the Federal Govern
ment," he said. The Veterans Ad-
ministration wrote into the bill a
list of qualifications which SO en-
asculated it that I have yet to see
an American veteran who has been
successful in obtaining loan on
his home.
If a veteran can meet the re-
quirements of the Veterans Admin
istration. he can get a loan whe-
Their he ever wore a uniform or
not. The 90 pages of regulations
effectively bar easily 90 per cent
of the loan applicants, and defy
any banker or loan agent to meet
the requirements and still make
living"

A Thought for Today
Let's Finish The Job

The last of the War Loan drives-the Victory Loan officially opens today and will continue through to Dece- unique appeal The world is peace and the specific urge cies of the solicitation deal with the maintenance and en- hancement of that peace The loans essential to in the field and this single peacetme loan is equally vital if to enjoy the fiton of our victory
 In previous campaigns have been told that oolaIs
 meant guns tanks planes and ships Had security permit ted might have learned that money also was being invested in the development and perfection of an atomic bomb These tangible highly destructive products required huge of money and yet 1t natural for the puonc to perceive their worth.
 The nation realized that forces could not pulverze industrial cities from the air. carry tremendous military operations land and participate in unprecedented ann phbouS and logstc operations at sea without the czeny footing the bill The response indicates how fully the pub lie appreciated these facts The quota for all seven dveS was approximately $95 bon total sales exceeded $135 billion No drive failed; all were oversubscribed.
 Our purchase of Victory Bonds in this final campaign represents in investment in the peace The goal of $11 billion which the Treasury has set $3 billion less than the Seventh War Loan quota will provide funds for veteran rehabilitation and of the wounded for the accelerated demobzaton of Army and Navy for troop of occupation and for the conversion to peacetme econ oy These things do not cheapy Yet we cannot at ford to stop after financing the forces of destruction ana m doing overlook the constructive elements of victory
 More than 90 million Americans own war bonds, ana 1t almost SuperuouS to reiterate the myriad adva tages gained by their purchase The public knows there no better investment It appreciates that buying Victory Bonds today provides security for the future And since present figures indicate that this year there will be about $40 billion income than there will be goods and SerV- ices to spend 1t on-wch is called the infationary gap the restraints imitation resulting from investment In Victory Bonds are obvious.
 The nation is in period of great transition from war to peace By unity and sacrifice we have won the most dev astatng conflict in world history It is unthinkable that we will compromise dilute victory now by failing to sac rifice for peace
