1945 Total Only Slightly Exceeds Four Million
 Case Mark

With all but scattered cannery operations now having made their final reports for the season, AL aska's 1945 salmon pack still stands at just bit above the four million mark for one of the lowest totals in years and considerably short of the most pessimistic preseason prognostications.
 All Southeast alaska canneries are now closed except Yakutat, and the Southeast pack is a half mill lion cases short of last season. A big year in Prince William Sound and good Copper River and Kodiak packs put Central Alaska 100000 cases ahead of 1944.
 The pack for the whole Territory is just over 100000 cases below last years low mark, as Bristol Bay also had an off-year. The nearly final pack report, compiled here by the Fish and Wildlife Service, through the week ending Sept. 8, shows the following totals:

The friendliness and sympathy of the people of this community are being translated widely and gen. erously into terms of money. In other words, the contributions to the National War Fund keep coming in, hour by hour. as the total advances steadily and surely toward it's goal

That is the type Of people mis-
the missionaries saw only the
Japanese cloak of pretense. We saw
them as their natural selves
insincere, unscrupuloLs, tricky and
without shred of principle
These people will never be
changed. There is only one form of
punishment for them and that is
their complete determination. We
must clamp them down down by
force; force in the American style.
American People Warned.
The American people must never
relax before the japanese. Their
population is increasing and like
ripples on a lake, they will spread
and we will have an enemy in the
future fortified by the savagery of
their forefathers plus an accumu-
lation of treachery far surprising
their present evil deceit
I plead with the American people
not to forget what some of our men
suffered. Do not forget the humili-
alton and the torture heaped on
the men on the road to victory.
We paid for this victory; we paid
with blood. with lives, with heart
break and bitterness. We must not
descend to the level of the Japa-
nese in our revenge But they must
be held down.

share the defeat at Bataan and
the suffering and torture on the
march of death just as though ]
had been there. My hatred for the
japanese did not lessen because ]
was well treated. A man does not
take personal glory in receiving
good treatment at the hands of an
enemy. Why. I even came out OF
three years Of prison with both my
watches. Most of the men had theirs
taken away from them.
We were searched when we left
the Philippines, but found out that
the Japanese did not search the
lobe of my back. l tied my watch
to a. long string, hung it around my
neck and down my back and in that
way it escaped them. 1t was the
watch my wife Betty gave me many
years ago and which was of senti-
mental value. I wore my wrist
watch the entire time.
Hatred Is Intense.
But I hate them. The keynote
of the Japanese character is their
insincerity. And then, too, I found
that the higher the caste, the less
reliable they are. When they talk
they are laughing up their sleeve
at the listeners apparent gullibility.
A Jap knows nothing but force. II
treated humanely, Jap thinks
it is weakness on our part. They
know only force. I have seen farm
ers in Formosa beaten almost to a
pulp for some trivial thing such
as not planting crops in the right
way. I have seen, as l have men,
toned, my friends and fellow pris-
oners slapped and beaten.
AS an illustration of their insin-
cerity. one of them told me that
he had gone to an American mis-
sionary school. He was one of the
interpreters at the camp. I suppose
showed surprise. for he hastened
to inform me that he didn't at
tend with any thought of religion
but merely to get an education.
That is the sort of enemy we had

ion and without benefit of rank. I
shall never forget my feeling to-
ward them. A feeling which did
not lessen, soften nor tighten when
I was released from Seian last
month. Bitterness was in my heart.
Hatred was in my heart. 1t will
remain there even though I carry
in my wallet my prison record, as
issued me by the Japanese when
was released. Written in japanese
under my picture was the Japanese
opinion of me-a gentle old man.
