UUNEAU'S BOND DRIVE LAGS

Juneau seems to be begged down in the mide of it's Seventh War Loan campaign with only half o the quota pledged.
 A. B. Cot Hayes, who shoudered the responsi- bility as chairman of the Seventh Drive reports that as early as May IS he dispatched letters requesting cooperation to more than 40 Gastineau Channel organizations asking each to canvass it's own members for the sale of war bonds To date only five of these organizations have reported.
 Juneau's quota is $225 900. To date we have about half of that amount subscribed Juneau trails Fair banks Anchorage and Ketchikan with these three cities well on their way toward their goals.
 Hayes points out that if only 25 of the remaining 35 organizations each could sell s50o0 in bonds the drive would be well the top and this could be done in week.
 Although in past drives we have had contests and auctions to spur bond sales it possible that Juneau- ties need such fanfare to convince them that they should support their country at war by making sound investments for their future?
 Application blanks for bonds may be secured at Mrs Katherine Nordales office, Room 3l6, Federal Building Such supplies will be delivered to your organization if desired by telephonng this office.

LINCOLN-ROOSEVELT BIRTHDAYS

The question of making Feb 12, Lincoln's birthday, national holi- day has now been put up to the Senate by North Dakotas Senator Langer in a manner difficult to dodge Hitherto, Southern legisla- tors have opposed any national holiday for the Civil War presi- dent, but when Senator Downey of California introduced a bill to make Jan. 30, Roosevelt's birthday a na- tional holiday, Langer immediately introduced the Lincoln birthday bill and insisted that the Judiciary Committee could not report one out without the other Both bills will probably die in committee Two years ago Secretary of State Hull asked Attorney General Riddle to act as chairman of the Allied War Crimes Commission, ex- blaming that the British wanted an American chairman . Any thing the British want us to pre- side over means they don't want to do much about it themselves, |" replied Riddle, and he ducked the job Some diplomats, watching the dilentante way Justice Bob Jackson has gone about trying Nazi war criminals, wish that Riddle had taken the job instead.

sired there is special bunting for this purpose Ana in using the bunting the blue should always be on top The order of the coors in this regard are blue, white and red.
 The flag is never to be traied in the water and should never touch the ground It should never be laid flat on decks tables and such like things It IS allowed to rest in this position only when resting on the casket who has served in the armed servces of his government When casket the flag will seem reversed the onlookers but it is in correct position so far as the deceased is concerned.
 The small metal flags used by many on the rear license plates of their automobiles entirely in- correct The flag should always be in front and should never trail anything It should never be used as unveiling material To do so lowers the dignity of the flag
 If you are wearing flag in the shape of a jewel, remember it should be worn only badge of honor and not as mere decoration
 The flag is half-staffed only for those who once offered their lives that the flag be hauled down by the enemy The flag is displayed outside from sunrise to sunset only. It should be hosted brlskly and lowered slowly and tremendously
 All of us will be having opportunities to salute the flag Here is the correct way to do this saluting For military personnel and uniformed policemen on duty the headdress is never removed to salute the flag The headdress carries part of their insignia of authority and in salutng, these persons merely touch the brim with their fingertips.
 All civilians men and women alike not in uni form salute a passing stationary flag by holding the right hand over their hearts This is known as the Lincoln Hand-over heart" salute. All other salutes are too indicative of Axis claptrap.
 It might be happening soon, too, that our flag will be in processions with flags of Allied nations In that case if the flags abreast of each other the American flag is always at the marching right When the flags are in line the American flag is front and center.
 When number of flags of states cities or pennants of societies and lodges grouped together the flag of the United States should be at the center or at the highest point of the group The Americals Flag too should be hosted first when several flags are being raised on separate staffs.

FLAG DAY, JUNE II

One incident is more less common to all Of the stories about Americans liberated from the horror Of enemy concentration camps. When they saw Old Glory again they wept, unashamed
 Perhaps the flag doesn't that much to most of us at home people used to our own bed every night and three regular meals day. But it should mean a great deal because it means liberty, and security and decent standard of life to our fellow countrymen who have lived under enemy flag
 It means great deal, too to the men who die for it. and there many of these men
 All of us remember the splendid war picture Of a few months ago when U. S. Marines pictured risking their lives to Haunt their coors above the site of the battle atop hard-won Two Jima Yet here at home where the display of the flag would be but the task of a moment there still empty flag poles, far too many.
 We feel sure that the flags will be out in Juneau tomorrow and here few of the more essential points concerning tine proper display position and also the correct method of saluting the flag:
 The blue and starry canton, the Union, is the honor point of the flag and should always be shown at the flags right hand corner when displayed, other than its staff in horizontal or vertical position
 Whenever carried or postioned, the flag should go on the right and of persons objects. This is the military right of line. All other flags are placed on the leftuhand of persons and objects
 When the flag is to be placed platform or in the chancel of a church, the staff should be at the speakers right hand and rightly in front of him Never cross two U. S. flags against wall The flag that is pointing the left, the sinister, is pointing to the traditionally set direction of the coward.
 Perhaps the greatest source of error is in the matter of using the flag for decorations. One flag majestic, but any more tends to make for decora- tion and the flag is to be used merely for decoration.
 When decorations of flag like nature are de-

WHISPERING CAMPAIGN

Down at Odessa, Texas, Lieut.. Dick McCauley of Midland Air Field made a speech before the Junior Chamber of Commerce, tell- ing them a hush-hush story of Jap balloons floating over the western United States. He said newspapers and radio could not publish the information, but listeners could spread it by word of mouth :. |. The ensuing whispering campaign had just got under way when the Army and Navy in Washington finally released details regarding the Jap balloons :. It wasn't McCauley's fault; he was under orders. But unfortunately whisper ing campaigns usually run into alarmist exaggeration Mcguire Industries Inc, which has been making Tommy guns during the war, has now developed new radio- telephone equipment to be tried out on the Reading Railroad beginning July 15 :. {. New Jersey Congress men are feeling the results of a campaign waged by the Ashbury Park, N. J. Press for a speedy trial of the German High Command and all other war criminals. The folks in Jersey feel strongly about this even if those at the top of the War Crimes Commission don't seem to be in a hurry.

 Political reasons - He has the impression, which was shared by many high American officers, that, quite intentionally and for polit- ical reasons, offensive operations were stopped.

PAINTING RANKIN

War veterans haven't forgotten the way Mississippi's ranting Con- gressman John Rankin tried to hush up probing of the Veterans
 Administration. Resentment is in- creasing against him even in Mis- sissippi When Albert Maisefs revealing article in Cosmopolitan on the Veterans Administration was referred to by other Congress men, Rankin sneered that the au- thor was Jewish :. It was fit- ting tribute that Roosevelt memor- ial services aboard the U. S. s. Pittsburgh in mid-Pacific were conducted by FDR's old secretary, Lieut., Com, Eugene Casey 1.

HOROSCOPE E "The stars incline

THURSDAY, JUNE IA

Benefic aspects dominate today which should be most fortunate for aviation. Good news of national in- terest is forecast.
 HEART AND HOME
 Under this configuration clear judgment is common Women this summer will have cause to separate the real meanings of life from the glamour of artificial pastimes and aspirations. Many families will bene- fit.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Experience that the Federal Gov ernment is inspired by practical ideas regarding postwar trade and commerce will be encouraging to American business men. Keen exe- cutives of wide experience will be called to Washington to aid in vital planning.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 Congress will manifest unity of purpose in prosecuting the Pacific WAT tO u SDtCQN Cliti DliD IiiCiC iiioy be protracted fighting at widely sep arated places.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 According to the stars Europe will be long dominated by the growing power and prestige of Russia. It is imperative for Americans to study the aims of the Soviet government and to cooperate wherever it is wise ly possible.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of happy associations. Many hard experien- ces will be forgotten by returning Servicemen and women.
 Children born on this day probab- ly will have brilliant mentalities. The war babies of this year have great potentialities.
