BUSINESS CHANCES TAT SkAGWAY;; LOUIS EMMANUEL SELLER

SKAGWAY, Alaska, Dec 9 - Special Correpondence) = One of the biggest deals to take place in Skagway in many months was com pleted this week when MT. and Mrs. Louis Emmanuel sold their Igloo Cocktail Bar, Igloo Snack Bar and ice cream parlor, and their nicely furnished apartment to Mir. and Mrs. Morgan Reed owners of Reeds liquor Store. Pos session is to be given January 1, after which MT and Mrs. Emman- uel will leave for Seattle.
 The Emmanuels plan to drive from Vancouver to Seattle, as they will ship their Plymouth coupe on the same steamer on which they will travel After a visit with re- latives and friends in Seattle they will tour California and New Mex ico
 The story of the Igloo Cocktail Bar and Snack Bar reads like a fairy tale In 1892, Louis Emman- uel started out in small rented building, his stock consisting of several boxes of candy and cigars and two card tables. He married a teacher in the Skagway public schools and he and his wife ex- banded the business, buying sand wich grill, making their own buns, and with small Silex added cof- fee and sandwiches to their mer- chandise. Beer was sold, chilled in a chimney, homemade cooler.
 In 1887 they bought building. remodeled it and built the addition that is now the Cocktail Bar, apartments of four rooms and bath.
 Tn l94l the building was again remodsled and today is one as modern as can be found.
 All equipment is electrical The neon lighting was installed in l943 The place has the distinction of having the highest rating of any like business in the territory from the Territorial Board of Health There are seven employees on full time and several on part time. During 1941 and 1922 the Emman- uels leased the business and oper- ated the Coliseum theatre part of the time for w. D. Gross, owner
 Mrs. Emmanuel has been very ac- tive in all civic affairs. is chairman of the Red Cross and occupies a prominent place in church and club circles.
 MT. and Mrs. Reed arrived in Skagway three years ago. He was superintendent of the Utah Con- struction Company for two years, [ then the next year was employed ! by the Port Engineers. They then ] purchased Bailey's Liquor Store Prior to coming to Alaska, MT. Reed had small manufacturing plant ! in Oakland and their home was in Berkeley.

Bu GALE TALBOT

(For Hugh Fullerton, Jr)-
 NEW YORK, Dec. 22--Army 28, Indiana Q. That about represents the consensus of a large group of football writers who attended the coach-of -the-year dinner for Be McMillin at Bear Mountain the other night, where they were shown movies of the Army Navy and Indiana Minnesota games. Some thought the Cadets might have run up an even higher score against the Big Ten champs, but most of them settled for four touchdowns Army's blocking, as revealed on the screen, was vastly superior to that of McMillin's boys.
 We note with vast respect that George Mikan of DePaul University scored 37 points against Indiana State at Chicago the other night a new record for the Chicago stad- ium. Shucks, he poured through 35 points in a game in the Garden last year, likewise a record. There, in all probability, goes the greatest basketball player ever, and don't bother to tell me about the original Celtics. I've seen. Mikan, and he's wonderful Most of those long, tall boys past the 6 foot, inch mark are pain to watch as they flat foot laboriously up and down the court. Mikan, on the other hand moves with the grace and speed of the little fellows, and he would be a star even if he were a foot short- CT than he is.

The landing OF American troops on
Okinawa Island is an event OF eror-
nous strategic possibilities. Leaving the
tactical details for subsequent discus
sion as the operation develops 1t may
be we'll to examine the stake for which
we are fighting at Okinawa. 1t is
stake which can hardly be overesti-
mated
The Ryukyu chain OF islands. of
which Okinawa is the center, extends
from the Japanese main islands south
westerly to Formosa. 1t is the barrier
between the Great Philippine Sea, which
we already control. and the East China
and Yellow Seas. into which-save by
submarine-we have not yet penetrated
at all
The East China and Yellow Seas are
the principal japanese connections be-
tween the japanese islands and the
mainland Of Asia. The great flow of
traffic supporting the Japanese armies
in China and bringing foodstuffs. coal,
iron and other products of the CONT
nent to Japan, goes from japanese ports
to and from across these seas.
The Japanese armies south of the

ported through Shanghai. Hangchow
and the other ports around the mouth
of the Yangtse River. These ports are
500 to 800 miles from Okinawa. Amer
tcan medium bombers, let alone heavy
ones. based on Okinawa. could stop all
use of these ports by the Japanese The
result would be that the japanese
armies south of the Yangtse would be
entirely dependent for supply and REIN
forcement on the railways (Peiping-
Hankow and Peiping -Nanking)-a most
dubious reliance, in view of the con-
slant interruption of traffic by guer-
rilla activities and by the China based
14th United States Air Force, and also
because the rail ferry at Nanking would
be within comfortable reach of heavy
American bombers from Okinawa.
But this is not all Munitions and
reinforcements from Japan. in order to
get on the Chinese railways, must first
get into China. If they cannot get
in through Shanghai and the other
Yangtse River ports. they must get in
through Tsingtao labout 300 miles from
OkinaWa) or through Tientsin. or
through the highly developed ports of
the Kwangtung Peninsula Dairen and
Ryejun). Tsingtao is on the East China
Sea, the others are on the Yellow Sea
All would be within range of heavy
bombers from Okinawa with the eff
cheney and scale of attack varying with
distance.

No 'SIuve Labor Threat

The very obvious fact that Ger
many is about to be knocked out of
the war probably accounts for the
predictions that the compromise,
compulsory manpower legislation will
be defeated in the Senate. If we
were still fighting a battle of the
bulge. as we were when the Presi-
dent urged Congress in January to
enact national service legislation,
the measure doubtless would have
been law by this time, with the silly
cries about slave labor" forgotten
along with other such poppycock.
But in arguing for this legislation

lization Byrnes' unamplified refer
enceS to the need of compulsory man

production and later to facilitate
reconverSion" have placed new am
munition in the hands Of the bills
opponents. The argument will be
made, as already indicated by Sem
ator Johnson of Colorado, that Mr..
Byrnes has given validity to the con-
tention that some dire scheme is
afoot to enslave American labor by
retaining, for an indefinite period.
the manpower controls sought for
war production.
Mr.. ByrneS no doubt was alluding
to the beginning of reconversion
which will take place after We day.
At least some of the manpoWer and
production officials fear that We
day will produce chaotic man
power problem, with rush to quit
war Jobs in favor of the more per-
manent civilian production. That
condition might adversely affect the
sustained war production necessary
in the continued war against Japan
and it is that condition for which
more effective manpower controls
are being sought now.
Any thought as to the permanency
of these manpoWer controls is sutfl-
GENTLY disputed by the terms of the
bill itself, which provide that the
legislation will remain in force only
until the end of the war or until
June 80, 1946 Nor would its provi-
sionS apply to any save critical areas
or essential war plants where serious
production snarlS would endanger
necessary supplies for the men at the
front.
If the bill on which the Senate
votes this week is defeated, it will be
because the unforeseen proximity
of We day casts doubts on the need
for it. 1t will not be because the
American people take seriously the
degrading talk about slave labor"
AS war measure, designed to main
tain the flow of supplies to our
troops, the bill is supported by the
inescapable logic that it is as correct
TO require men-disqualifed or de-
ferred from active military duty
to stay on their war jobs or to work
where they are needed as it is to
REQUIRE their brothers to risk and
to give their lives on the fighting

Stain Forces Claims
By Jay G. Harden

Events of the past week have greatly
strengthened an impression gained by
this observer that foreign affairs ex-
perts believe President Roosevelt is
making the same mistake that woodrow
Wilson made in 1919 of putting the
world organization cart ahead of the
war settlement horse.
Just as Premier Clemenceau used the
threat of non adherence to the League
of Nations Covenant to force President
Wilson to surrender to one after the
other of Frances predatory demands,
Premier Stain quite obviously is en-
ploying Dumbarton Oaks to compe!
American acceptance of his territorial
claims.
1t is apparent, specifically, that Stain
has made American British acceptance
of his Soviet-made Lublin government
of Poiand-substantially as is-a con-
dition without which there will be no
Affirmative cooperation by Russia in
the approaching effort at San Fran
cisco to establish an all-embracing
world organization.
Such is the real meaning of the
virtually coincident announcement at
Moscow. first that Foreign Minister
leaving the Soviet representation there
to second-raters and, secondly that
Russia has demanded admission of the
Lublin government to the conference.
+ =
Stains insisttnce at Yalta on at least
three votes for Russia in the projected
world assembly probably is of the same
piece, in that this logically would call
for multiple voting by Russia in the
San Francisco Conference.
There have been rumors for some
time that Stain would demand at least
six Soviet votes al San Francisco one
each for the main Soviet government
and the various Soviet European re-
publics.
1t must be said for Stain that there
has been nothing underhanded in his
dealing AS long ago as January, 1912,
when the first United Nations pact was
negotiated. he announced his deter
mination to annex the Baltic states and
Poland east of the Curzon Line. Presi-
dent Roosevelt then persuaded Stain
not to make British American accept
ance of these claims a condition to the
United Nations agreement, with the
argument that. in view of the then
ticklish military situation. 1t was better
that all territorial questions be post
poned.

The Stake at Okinawa
BY Maj. Georee Fielding Eliot

within these waters (hitherto virtually
Japanese lakes so that japanese traffic
to and from Tsingtao and Yellow Sea
ports would be in the same condition as
South China Sea traffic since the estab-
lishment of American sea and air power
in Luzon. 1t would have to hug the
coast, it would have to proceed chiefly
at night. from point to point. and 1t
would proceed, even then, at very great
risk and suffering severe losses.
The only mainland ports to which the
japanese could really protect their sea
traffic from naval attack would be the
eastern and southern ports of Korea, on
the Sea of Japan and the Strait of
Korea. which would mean that in effect
japanese shipments to and from the
mainland would be bottlenecked by the
capacity of these ports and the capacity
OF the Korean railways
x4
OF course this would work in reverse.
The whole Japanese -Manchurian econ
omy has been set up on the basis of
using the vast port facilities Of the
Kwangtung area. particularly Dairen, as
the principal transfer point from ship
to shore. Insofar as japanese resistance
In the homeland is dependent on Man
churian industrial output~-which may
be increasingly the case as the bomb
Ing OF japanese home industrial centers
grows in effectiveness-it is also depend
ent on free flow of traffic by sea.
Some of this traffic can be rerouted
over the Korean railways; the line from
Fusan. at the southeastern corner of
Korea. to the Yalu River has just been
double-trscked according to Japanese
claims. But even so Fusan itself be-
comes bottleneck, and while traffic to
and from Fusan can be protected to
a considerable extent against naval at
tack, Fusan is very little farther from
Okinawa than is Shanghai There are
ports On the east coast of Korea. on
the Sea of Japan itself, which are more
distant and could serve to some extent,
but the capacity of these ports are
limited, and rail lines which serve them
are not as we'll developed as the main
line to Fusan
Thus the establishment of American
sea and airpower at Oklnawa would, as
Admiral Nlm1tz points out in his COM
munlque. enormously extend the Amer
lean blockade of the japanese islands
by cutting some of their main routes
to and from the Asiatic mainland. This
gain would be in addition to the con-
siderable extension of our air attacks
directly against Japan which would be
made possible by the seizure of base
only 325 miles from the southermost
of the japanese main islands, directly
commanding the ports of Nagasaki and
Sasebo and the southern exit of the
inland sea.
