ascent up the sheer face of cliffs by ropes, posed a threat which the Nipponese acknowledged by heavy counter-attacks and intense fire from caves.
 Nozzle guns of hose, linked in 5O-foot sections, shot tank-fuelled fire into the caves nearest the Tank lines.
 Shelter for the assault was poor. The foe in the distant caves played deadly game of peekaboo. He withdrew deep inside as shells fell, then he darted back to the mouth to pour forth machine gun fire.
 The enemy air force sent more planes to Okinawa Monday, today s communique reported, losing 10 while succeeding in hitting a light surface unit-the 54th American vessel acknowledged damaged in the area by air attack. Twenty-Five others have been sunk.

Delegates said these produced several warm moments-one when Peter Fraser of New Zealand brief ly tied into Senator Tom Connally of the United States, another when Herbert V. Evatt of Australia took exception to statement by Com mander Harold Stassen of the United States, and third time when an Iraqui tArabian) delegate sharply prodded the French.
 Evatt came from the committee room with a statement on his de- feat. The struggle for the lib- eralization and improvement of the constitution will go on," he said, until liberalization or im- provement takes place. Above all we consider that the extreme rigid ity of amendment should be modi- fled"
 Meeting Today
 The committee scheduled two more meetings today, in an effort to wind up it's work The next big vote presumably would be the one approving the veto voting formula
 This is the formula which re- quires that Russia, France, the United States, China and Britain must be unanimous before the pro- jected Security Council of the world organization can take any step te preserve peace The lone exception would be that none of them woulc vote on peaceful attempts to settle a dispute to which it was itself g party.

Poor Digestion? G1 r1 7
 Headachy? DO Sour or Upset? u0 Tired-listless? DO

Do you feel headachy and upset due to poorly digested food? To feel cheerful and happy again your food must be digested properly.
 Each day, Nature must produce about two pints of vital digestive juice to help digest your food. If Nature fails, your food may remain undigested- leaving you headachy and irritable.
 Therefore, you must increase the flow of this digestive juice. Carter's Little Liver Pills increase this flow quickly often in as little as 30 minutes. And, you're on the road to feeling better.
 Don't depend on artificial aids to counteract indigestion-when Carter's Little Liver Pills aid digestion after Ma lures own order. Take Carter's Little Liver Pills as directed. Get them at any drugstore. Only 25f.

GOLDEN ALASkA
 iS DISCUSSED IN
 YANk MAGAZINE

In the recent edition of Tank Alaska Edition. communication addressed to the editor appeared, written by Pvt. G. P. Hackenbruck then in England, concerning Alaska and entitled Golden Alaska. He says he lives in Alaska and ex- presses his views in the communi- cation. which is as follows, and printed without comment.
 Golden Alaska
 Dear Yank:
 For too long, and altogether too often, I've been reading articles deal ing with Alaska, Gods gift to the ex-serviceman and would-be farm er-entrepreneur. Isn't it time we considered few facts?
 CD The land up there is either swampy, frozen, rocky or yer tical. There are probably fewer than 100 real farms in Alaskas 500,0 square miles. Why? There were two towns of 5000 people, three towns of about 5000 people and five or six places populated by from 500 to 1000 people. Besides these there are, of course, small fishing villages and trading posts, etc, but these are scattered over an area Il times larger than the state of Wisconsin. Isn't it reasonable to suspect some thing amiss with this Golden Land?"
 @ Transportation to and with in the Territory hardly exists.
 (3) Markets for produce, or as sources of supply, are remote, small, scattered and rare.
 (4) Prices are half again as great, or even double, those found in the States.
 t5) Summer is about 2l2 months long, with a week on each side dur ing which winter comes or leaves, as the case may be. The saying is that there are two seasons in Alaska winter and the Fourth of July. And with summer comes the rains inceS- sant in places and the mosquitoes and gnats swarming by the millions in all places. And then comes Win ter-long months of bitter cold, darkness. snow, wind and idleness.
 (6) Employment consists of two main industries, fishing and mining, which have already long been sta bilized' and will develop further cnly very slowly, if at all. Alaska has had her unemployment problem every year since the POS, caused by outside" labor coming in for the short summer season. The fur in- dustry is a sad one, and the lumber business nil Actually many states have much greater possibilities ln any of the above fields.
 It would be folly to go to Alaska without at least a $3,090 stake and S5,000 if a man has a family to sup port. Those amounts should at least insure enough money to buy the return-tTlp home. 10 try JO make start saddled with a loan" even CT, would be fatal from the first. An empty wallet, an empty stomach and year or two of time wasted-it isn't pleasant prospect. Not when that first year or two is srent sinking a shovel into virgin ground (six inches of frosD, build ing a house, hauling supplies, endur- ing extremes of climate and insects --for nothing And you don't go up there and simply buy farm, busi- ness or house. There aren't any. At least, what few there are aren't for sale.
 If present a rather dismal pie ture of Alaska, let me say here that l write only to save lot of GIs a lot of disappointment, as well as financial ruin. AS for myself and my qualifications for writing this letter = iUe in AlaSka.

struggled to Its feet, staggered about
uncertainty, shook itself, then
hunted for the teat. Finding the bone

"Goshl Look at It'll" exclaimed
Howard. "What a mean little

Ken said nothing but watched anx-
iously. The foal found the teat at
last.
"You stay here, Howard, will

make her some mash. You might
give her some clean straw"
"I'n rub her down." offered How
ard generously, and as Ken left the
stable he got dry sack and rubbed
her streaming back and fianks and
neck.

Howard still hesitated, eyeing his

leaning on the rail of the manger,
almost under the mares head.

THE STORY THUS FAR: In q cold
rainstorm, Flicka's colt, long overdue,
II born. Ken Mclaughlin, Flicka's IL
year-old owner, finds her at last In
gully, Of which there are many on his
fathers big horse ranch in the Rockies.
Ken IL astonished to see that the colt IL
white, and evidently throwback to the
Albino, a wild stallion that is Fhcka's
grandsire. He realizes that the mare
and her colt should be in the warm
stables. When he attempts to lead Flicka
she baIks. Ken then tries to lift ,and
drag the foal, but the little animal
kicks and bites. Knowing then that NO
must get help, Ken runs to the ranch
house. There he finds only his brother
Howard at home.

Dog Collected Funds

Since 1892, in Paddington Sta
tion, London, a mongrel dog
named Tim has collected nearly
$4,000 for the widows and Or
phans' fund of British railroad,
says Golfers. For II years, Tim
met all trains and begged for coins
to be dropped in the tin box fas-
tened to his collar.
When Tim died of old age in
1902, his body was mounted and
placed in a glass case in the sta
ton, where he still continues his
work, collecting coins through a
slot in his stand.
The midland journal., 1945-06-22


The foal lay like sack Of meal
across Flicka's withers.
Howard was handy at making
chocolate and Tipping eggs and CIV
ing his mother a hand with the cook
ing.
"Sure!" said Ken. "You betl" But
he sat still on the manger rail,
watching his mare, and Howard
went out, closing the door behind
him.
Ken stood listening to Howard's
retreating steps. He heard the rasp
of the corral gate being opened and
closed again. Now they were alone,
the mare, foal and himself. In the
stable was sweet quietness and
the smell of hay and horses.
Ken sat on the manger rail close
to the feed box in which he had
placed the bucket of mash, and the
mare dipped her muzzle into it, ate
hungrily, then lifted her head and
chewed, looking at Ken, her long
ears pointed forward. She had
gentle golden-brown eyes with see
ing expression in them. Looking at
Ken, her intelligent face was not
foot from his. He Strengthened the
fiaxen forelock that hung between
her eyes, murmuring her name now
and then. She swung her head
around to look at the sleeping foal.
The lantern, hung on the corner
post, only half Lit the stall.
Ken too looked at the foal. Now
that he had it safely in the stable,
the surprise and worry that he had
felt when he first saw it took pos

this was going to makel A white
foal out of Flickal A white foal on
the Goose Bar ranch where every
one knew Banner, the big golden
sorrel stud that sired the yearly
crop Of colts.
Ken's uneasiness was linked to a
series Of nearly disastrous events Of
past years in which he and q GER
tain line Of horses had been in
volved. This train Of events led di-
rectly to the small white foal lying
there so innocently on the clean hay,
and it had begun long before, when
a wild stallion Of the plains, called
the Albino because of his white col
or, had stolen mare from the
Goose Bar ranch. She was the Thor
oughbred, Gypsy, one of Rob Nc
Laughlin's foundation mares. He
had bought her when he was a cadet
at West Point and used her for polo.
When he graduated and then re-
signed from the Army in order to go
in for horse-breeding, there were
three Of them that came west to.
