REINDEER MEAT
 PRICE CHANCES

A more flexible method covering sales of reindeer meat in the Terri tory is now in effect, the Alaska Office of Price Administration in Juneau announced today
 Under the revision. effective since NOV 3, retailers arc allowed a flexible pricing method whereby they may add to their fixed selling price the exact transportation costs incurred when the meat is taken ever expensive or unusually long distances.
 Retail prices previously estab- Hshed were calculated to include a fixed allowance for transporta- tion from fairly uniform distances. However. during the past two war years this meat had to be shipped in from more remote districts and at far greater expense in many cases. The lack of herd tenders and subsequent killing by wolf packs contributed to thlS uepletlOn ana the cutting down of the number Of herds at various shipping points previously in operation.
 OPA officials took action for the revisinn after consultation with retailers, shippers and the general reindeer supervisor. Notification of this revision, which is expected to correct the difficulty previously ex- perienced, has been sent out to all parties concerned.
 The. price change is Of consider

Am Example of Military


THE declaration by Senator
Il Wheeler of Montana that the
members of the army court martial
board which passed the death SEN
tence upon soldier for disobedience
Of a superior officer fought to be dis
ciplined, and I mean severely dis
ciplined," expresses an opinion
shared by the majority of the Ameri-
can people.
1t is true, of course, that since
Senator Wheeler expressed this
opinion the board which passed the
original sentence upon Pvt. Henry
Weber at Camp Roberts in California
has been reconvened and commuted
the sentence to life Imprisonment.
But this hasty retreat from an
untenable position in the face Of
outraged public opinion does not
redeem the board in the eyes of the
American people, and does not
change the fact that the army
WANTED to hang a man for COM
paratively minor offense although it
did not dare to go through with it.
THE fact still remains, as Senator
Il Wheeler says, that:
"If the army is going to hang
every one Who doesn't happen to
liUe UP to some regulation, they
Won't haze any morale, or for that
matter, any army"
Senator Wheeler is RIGHT.
The death sentence imposed
against Pvt Weber was a FRIGHT
Full sentence, and the life imprison-
ment sentence still standing against
him is hardly less frightful-in view
of the nature of his offense.
1t is only one of many frightful
Detroit evening times., 1945-02-15

sentences imposed by recent army
courts.
The American people have been
shocked by the severity of sentences
imposed by army courts in the So
called "black market" prosecutions
in France, some of which have in
Yolved the death penalty, and all Of
which have involved at least life i'm
prisonment or its equivalent in the
form of Imprisonment for so long a
term of years that even the youngest
men could not hope to survive 1t.
The black market dealings in
France are unquestionably very
serious military offenses, far more
serious certainly than the offense of
Pvt. Weber who simply refused to
drill with his squad.
All military offenses must surely
be atoned for in punishment-but
not in tyrannical or even sadistlc
punishment, if the American sense
of justice still commands respect.
TNHESE 1rlgnt1ul army sentences
Il SAVIOR of MILITARIST1
TYRANNY "
They show unmistakable signs
that our American democracy is in
danger of becoming an ARMED
DESPOTISM.
The fact that the American nation
is at war does not Justify the aban-
donment of our concepts of justice
and humanity.
1t most assuredly does not nullify
the traditional and characteristic and
instructive love of justice and hu
manity which is the heritage of the
American people and the foundation
of their democrat tic institutions
whether the country is at war or at
peace.

Children are flesh and blood, with all the
