RETURNING VETERANS

Every day we're being asked whether the facilities of our USO tits dormitory, canteen, lounge. etc.) and it's parties and other ac- tivities are available to discharged veterans of World War II.
 The answer is: Yes, emphatically. This is in accordance with the pol icy of the national USO-and it is exactly in line, of course, with the desire of the staff of the local club.
 Already, since VIE Day, thene have been at least 50 old friends of the Club who have come back to see us in their civilian clothes. It's always pleasant experience to have friends return to the clubhouse for a second or a third visit; and this is especially the case when they come wearing those bright-and- shiney new civilian outfits and beaming those ex-GI smiles.
 Speaking o1 'cn-G4Ss" We wonder iv you've read the article under that title in a recent issue of Golfers |, written by Bill Mauldin, famous in- fantry cartoonist and author of Up Front? In it he tells humorously of the near embarrassment of a former CT, especially under the sus- picious glances of men still in uni form who imagine they are looking at just another 4-F."
 That's the sort of embarrassment that will never be experienced, we feel sure, here at our clubhouse. It's a certainty that every former CT will receive truly friendly well come in the Juneau USO, both from the members of its staff and from the fellows still in uniform.

IN FED. GOVT, SERvICET0
 BE ALASkA PMS
By MARY LEE COUNCIL (Secretary to Delegate E. L. BartletD

WASHINGTON, oct 10 Special Correspondence)- )-The Senate has passed Delegate Bartlett's bill which provides that persons already in Federal Government service may be appointed as postmasters of fourth-class post offices in Alaska.
 Many pest offices in the Terri tory have been closed because the only persons willing or able to undertake the duties of postmasters have been teachers or special as sistants of the Alaska Native Ser vice The Comptroller General ruled sometime ago that person receiving payment from the Fed eral Government for performing services for one agency could not receive compensation for perform ing duties of another agency. Dele gate Bartlett's bill thus rescinds the ruling of the Comptroller Gen eral, so far as appointment of pcstmasters of fourth class offices in Alaska is concerned.
 The bill, which passed the House some weeks ago, is now before the President for. his signature.

LEASING SHORE SPACE

Senator Hatch, chairman of the Senate Committee on Public Lands and Surveys, has introduced bill permitting the Secretary of the Interior to lease land included in shore space reservations in Alaska for agricultural, industrial and commercial purposes.
 Under existing law at least 30 rods of shore space between each claim, location or entry along the shore of any navigable waters in Alaska must be reserved from entry. The law further provides that the secretary, in his discre- tion, may restore some of the land included in the 30-rod reservation to entry which he believes are not necessary for harborage or other purposes.
 Under Senator Hatch's measure, the secretary may lease or grant permits for the land within the 30-rod reservation in tracts not to exceed 160 acres and for a period of not more than 20 years.

have amassed a total of time served in it's canteen not so many scores of hours below hers-but we are very sure that her total is tops among the whole organization.
 It's Irene Williams we're referring to, of course. This sweet and loyal friend of the Juneau USO left on for Seattle where she will attend school.
 More than we can express, Irene will be missed by us. Many of our men are personally acquainted with her; and they will miss her as a jolly and charming friend. But she has always been such modest, self-effacing person that there are many more who are acquainted with her simply by sight. These latter will never know to what extent they have been the beneficiaries of her friendliness to the entire USO as, from day to day, week in and week cut, she has made the Club (par- ticularly it's canteen) a more pleas ant and a more efficient place than it ever would have been without her.
 Among the hundreds of thoughtful people of this community whose generosity has largely shaped the character of the Juneau USO, no one has contributed more literally of herself than has this girl for whom today we express very special wish for happineSs-our true friend, Irene Williams.

CONVOY TO MURMANSK

It's been several years since the United Nations first permitted any details to be published concerning enc of the most dangerous and cost ly dramatic missions of the whole war-the carrying of vital supplies by water to Murmansk in the early days of Russia's participation in the conflict But there still fingers in the mind much of the story of the horrors of that adventure in those tragic days when the Germans

ruthleSSly ruled the waters nOltn OI Norway and Sweden and patrolled them by U-boat, surface craft and airplane.
 Out of the Convoy to Murmansk have emerged the stories of some Of the very grimmest courage of the men of the Allied Navies and their merchant marines, faced with appal- i ling odds against ever getting home alive.
 An echo of those days and nights of horror and heroism came to us on Sunday. We were playing host to a Canadian sailor now serving on the Princess Louise-young Err nest Grundy, of Montreal, Quebec. He was telling of some of the far away spots he'd visited. It was quite casually that he happened to mention that he'd been torpedoed three times.
 When we asked him for more de- tails, he said that the time his ship was carrying high octane gasoline to Murmansk was the most nerve wracking. The ships in that con- voy had been under enemy fire al- most constantly for several weeks on end. The convoy had finally reach ed the coast of Russia when Grun- dy, having finished his watch in the engineroom, came up on deck. He had walked just a few steps to- ward the bow of the ship when the torpedo struck. He was hurled high into the air by tke terrific explo- sion. As he fell the vessel was al- ready listing; he hit the side of it.. His leg was broken in three places Tie Arctic water was bitterly cold; but his several sweaters and his heavy overcoat furnished protection enough to save his life as he clung to a raft for many minutes. Sixty five men had teen on that ship just before the explosion. Grundy was one Of the two who survived.
 Not that we needed the lesson but We were reminded of something by that conversation with this young Canadian "a quiet, unaSsuming lad who had no desire to talk, and from when we learned quite accidentally Of his part in one of the costliest missions of the entire war;. Yes, that conversation of Sunday evening, and the talk we had on Tuesday with an American Coast Guards man who participated in all the African and European invasionS but enc, as well as our meeting several nights before with the young Navy sailor who is entitled to wear no less than Is battle stars for nearly three years of fighting in the South Pacific i've wrote about him in our column last week. those converSa- tions wildly reminded us all over again of something very important. That very simple, very significant something is the fact that during the span of six long years vast num- bers of men, now in all sections of the world, played active parts in the ghastly business of war-that cruel suffering has been the common lot of mankind over these yearS-and that an unconquerable courage has keen the no-less- common tradition of men throughout the world during all that time.

Dorothy Dix Says

Dear Miss Dix: I am a young
girl and have only been married
five months. My husband is al
ways criticizing my looks. I can't
help the way look, but I do have
more sense than to criticize him
the way he does me. He is always
saying something catty about me
when we are around other people.
Is there any way I can stop him
from doing this?
MILDRED.
Answer-Evidently your husband
admired your looks, or else he would
not have chosen you from all the
other girls he knew for wife.
Throw that in his teeth and let him
chew on it the next time he holds
you up to ridicule. You might also
remind him that he is no Robert
Taylor himself.
However, I don't recommend this
latter procedure, for fault-flnding
between husband and wife doesn't t
make for happiness and harmony.
There is no percentage in the pot
calling the kettle black. The best
