 'I am therefore requesting the people of Aaskla to join my em- phatic protest to the U. s. Maritime Commission against the unwarrant- ed and unjust haste in ordering this hearing. I believe it should be postponed for at least six months and that we should meanwhile seek a congressional investigation of the whole situation. There were enough committees of Congress in the Territory last summer who are aware of and interested in our problems to make this, hope, a matter for their concern. Unfortun- ately Alaska still being a territory has not the political power to fight this kind of assault effectively. We must rely on the help of both the Department of Interior to which I am likewise appealing and of the Congress which really could remedy this situation"

 possible for the people of Alaska to prepare themselves in two weeks to make an effective and success ful fight against this attempt to deliver a mortal blow to the Ter itory. To do this job effectively would require the hiring of econ omists, statisticians and investigat- ors as we'll as legal counsel.
 Moreover, it can be pointed out that any decision made now would be based on abnormal and temper ary conditions. Everyone is famil- far with port congestion. the un- certainties of sailing dates, the un- usual demands incidental to de- mobilization, the high insurance cost for seamen. officers and ships which will be reflected in any measure of recent operational costs, and other factors which due to wartime conditions cannot be con- sidered typical or future peace

Some of the most delightful fic- tion in newspaper annals has been written in reporters expense ac- counts, known as "swindle sheets" Last week, frinstance, a local gazette received a bill from one of its correspondents overseas. Tie biggest item on it was for Venetian blinds for the reporters mud-hut on Two lima!
 Britain's Lloyd George was trig- ger-quick in the art of repartee. Early in his career he was cam- paigning at an indoor meeting in a tough neighborhood. Someone out side took exception to his remarks, neaved a brick through the window. It fell at Lloyd Georges feet. Pick ing it up, he cried: Behold! The only argument of our opponents!" At another political gathering he was pumping for home rule for each of Britain's islands. T want home rule for England, for Scotland, for Wales, for Ireland, he declared. At this point, some one shouted: "Yes-and home rule for Hell, too" That's right, countered Lloyd George, "every man for his own country"

tank and two air armies were par ticipating in the big offensive, Ber- lin said.
 A Stockholm d ispatch said Rus sian parachutists, including German officers who had been captured at Stalingrad, had been dropped in the Berlin area to confuse the Nazi de- lenses. The officers wore their old German uniforms, the dispatch said.
 Other officers seized at Stalin- grad were appealing through loud speakers at the front to German soldiers to surrender.
 It. Gen. Walter Seydlitz, another of the prisoners and member of the free German committee in Rus sia, appealed over the Moscow radio to the Germans to day down their arms ito save as many lives as pos sible"
 "Hitler's fortress is about to fall" Seydlitz said. Tt is already cut into isolated parts. Everything is advanc- ing with gigantic steps to complete the disintegration."
 The Soviet high command, as was its custom in the early stages of a major ofefnsive, was silent on the German claims, but Soviet histor- ian Eugene Tarle said in Moscow radio talk that the attack on Berlin had begun from the east and west.
 Moscow dispatches told only of new Russian gains in Austria with one column driving to within 25 miles of the big industrial center of Graz.
 The Nazis said the Red army mad eits deepest penetration on the

 Soviet amphibious tanks rushe1 across swamps and canals on 8 nine mile front as far as EberswaldO and Bad Freienwalde, where they were meeting stiff resistance from German assault guns, the NaziS said.
 Eberswalde lies only four miles from the Stettin-Berlin super-high- way and 76 miles northeast of American Ninth Army spearheads in the Stendal area.
 Due east of Berlin, other Soviet forces merged their bridgeheads across the Oder river on a 20-nil,, front between Kienitz, 32 miles east of Berlin and Lebus, five miles north of Frankfurt, then drove on tc within 27 miles of the capital. The strategic Seelow Hills, also 27 miles east of Berlin and Il miles southwest of Kuestrin, likewise fell to the advancing Soviets, German broadcasts admitted.
 The Russians preached the Ger man line on each side of Frank furt, 33 miles east southeast of Ber- lin, another Nazi dispatch said though it claimed these penetra- tions were mot operationally im- portant."
 Still another breach was torn in the German line at Fuerstenberg, IA miles southeast of Frankfurt, the Germans said.

 Tokyo reported that approxi- mately 30 superfortresses took part in the hour and 8 half raid, con- centrated on Kyushu'S airflelds.
 The heavy blow came as Ameri- can infantrymen were cleaning up tiny Ie island, three miles west of Okinawa, where they landed yesterday and seized another base for the increasing aerial campaign
 Mai. Gen. Curtis E. LeInay's big superfortresses took over the pounding of Kyushu after Admiral Chester w. Nimitz' carrier planes and land -based fighters from Two lashed the island for five days.
 The campaign against Kyushu spearheaded the continuous blazing aerial battles along a 360-mile front extending southward through the Rhukyus to Okinawa where the main conflict was developing into fierce air fights rather than 8 ground campaign.
 Except for the invasion of 1e and the seizure of its airdrome with three valuable flying strips, two which are 5000 feet long, ground positions on Okinawa have changed little in the past week.
 But the air battles and the at tacks on the enemys flying bases in the northern Ryukyus and Kyu- shut have continued at a furious pitch.
 From last Thursday through Monday, American air, ground and naval forces destroyed or damaged at least 428 Japanese planes and the Superfortresses in today's raid may have added considerably more. Those results brought the toll of Japanese planes in the past month to 2,626 destroyed or damaged - or a rate of approximately 94 day. Admiral Nimitz disclosed that carrier planes from Vice Admiral Marc A. Mitscher'S fast task force raided the northern Ryukyus and oOuIIlcIA AyuSlu HUH u1SOdy through Sunday while Mustang fighters from Two hit the Japanese homeland yesterday.
 The carrier planes shot down 29 Japanese aircraft, destroyed 58 on the ground and damaged 60 more at Kyushu's Kanoya and Kushira's airfields. But the fields were al- most empty when the Mustangs ar- rived on Monday.
 The Mustang strike, which in- volved 1,500-mile round trip flight, was led by Major James B. Tapp. Eveleth, Minn., who said the pilots, did not see any Japs in the air and only few aground" The trip was the longest of the war for Mus tangs.
 Tokyo reported that approximate ly 100 carrier planes, together with Liberators and Mitchell Medium bombers also attacked Kyushu yes- terday.
 The enemy report claimed that the land-based bombers and fighters had taken of from the two-Amer- ican-held airfields on Okinawa.

 Supported by heavy artillery bombardment and waves of bombers two Soviet armies and several inde- pendent tank formations stormed the Germans Neisse river fortifica- tions between Forst, 60 miles south east of Berlin, and Muskau, IS miles farther south, Nazi broadcasts said.
 "The Germans checked the as- sault on front of 12 1-2 miles in fluctuating fighting" the DNB Agency reported. Later they coun- ter-attacked and recaptured consid- erable ground. Ninety-two Soviet tanks were knocked out"
 Only 80-odd miles beyond the So- viets were American Third Army columns.
 A Paris report said the Red Army already had linked up with the Americans in the Elbe Valley south east of Dresden, but latest official dispatches placed the Soviets nearly 50 miles and the Americans 40 miles from the purported junction point.
 The German transocean agency said the Russians were attacking with at least six armies in the Oder triangle directly in front of Berlin bounded by Frankfurt, Kuestrin and Zellin, the latter 15 miles northwest of Kuestrin.
 Advancing under cover of smoke screen at the northern corner of the triangle, transocean said, the Rus sians made several breaches in the Nazi line east of Letschin, 12 miles northwest of Kuestrin and four miles beyond the Oder.
 Transocean added the usual claim that the breaches had been sealed off"
 Other German broadcasts said the Russians had dropped para troops even closer to Berlin, but claimed these were encircled and wiped out

 For the current fiscal year, the Navy appropriation was $28, ,533, ,039,- . 301 along with $3,249, ,231 400 in au- thorization.

Rouse wanted the commission TO

payment of this service is out OF
order since the city was not in
formed of the ruling until after
the budget sessions for this year.
This policy has been going on
for nine years" said Rouse. IF it
is now decided that the policy is
illegal, we cannot be expected to
pay the Municipal Service for what
has been agreed upon in the past.
Our budget was set up with the
anticipation of receiving free lights
and water during 1945. We cannot
be expected to pay for this service
now that the budget is set up for
this year To insist upon payment
now for something that was given
to us at budget time will put the

his resolution for lower light rates
it was seconded by Councilman
