FINN ELECTION
 RESULTS SHOW
 HEAVY VOTING

HELSINKI, March 20.-The Con- munist Democratic Peoples Union Party appeared to have won about 50 seats in the Finnish Parliament, cutting deeply into the ranks of the Social Democratic Conservatives, with l,500,Go0 of the probable 1,80o,- coo ballots already counted. Left Villagers and Social Democrats poll ed about half the votes on virtu- ally 50-50 basis with the Social Democrats who were cut from 85 tc 50 seats.
 There is a prospect that Left Villagers and Social Democrats could, if they choose, work together to command a majority of slightly more than 100 in the 200 member as- sembly.
 Generally, the election is inter preted as a rebuke to those respon- sible for the policy which cost Fin land So much in the war with Rus sia

CAIRO, H., March 20-The world champion St. Louis Cardinals have pitched their spring training camp in surroundings more suited to sculling than baseball.

We, the undersigned Alaskan Gil Joes. noted with considerable m- terest the inopportune concluding comments on the bonus bill now before the Legislature, made by Mrs. John Mccormick in her report, to the Senators and Representa- tives from all Divisions, on funds raised to date in Alaska for the National War Fund.
 We fail to understand the logic lin any reasoning which construes q territorial supplement in the form of a retroactive increase in pay as an insult; at least we heard no such interpretation when Bill raising certain territorial salaries was recently passed.
 The average CT will make his exit from the Armed Services with nothing but his $500 mastering out money, payable in three monthly installments, from which he must purchase a complete out fit of civilian clothes and perhaps sustain himself through readjust- ment period of one or two months He will also have the opportunity under the Federal CT Bill, of bor- rowing from a bank an amount ur to S4,OOO, one-half of which is guar anteed by the Federal Government Of course, the offer of three ol four years experience in the Armeo Services probably will not be ac' ceptable collateral in many banks Consequently, the advantages of tht Federal Bill, in connection witt loans, will be available to fev CTS.
 A good morale builder would b. the knowledge that after the wal there will be a few hundred dollar available for a down payment on home, small business or the basi for a larger loan.
