Boy Without Passport
(New York Times)

(NeW York 11meS)
 He got off to a bad start in life. He spent three years in Dachau prison where he his mother put to death and where he got some knife himself, inflicted by Nazi SS His father major in the Polish Air Force was killed in Buchenwald prison. Now ne is in sort of prison again in, of all places these free United States although his only crime is that he has arrived in this country without papers This is the world Bronslaw Stalca of Poland knows it thus far at age 13 He the Navy transport General Anderson the other day from Le Harve, smuggled aboard by three homeward bound American soldiers who succeeded in hiding him for days in barracks bag. They went into the brig for it., and the boy arrival here taken into custody by the immigration authorities they must do under the law.
 Frankie as this boy is known to the GIs, was mascot for more than six months of members Of Company D. 4O6th Infantry Regiment, 102d Division. He left Germany with his friend S/Sgt. John J. Narkiewicz, who was unable to accompany his pal because he hospitalzed in Europe. But the ser geants mother is willing to adopt Frankie whose one ambition said to be to go to school some place where 'ae Hitler" not in the of study. This would very likely be the in Wilson, Conn, which IS Sergeant Narkiewicz's home.
 We should like to see Frankie stay in his country. We think it is time the world gave him break We understand he is rather nice chap himself The evil record of what the NaZs did to him, his mother and his father speaks well for him. The trouble that his American buddes have taken to bring him here is further evidence. Frankie will find that the highest officials in country willing to listen to appeals from boys like him. One Johnny Camera, 12-yearold Italian war orphan who came stowaway under similar circumstances moved the heart of the Attorney General Perhaps it can be done again.

HELP FOR TB?

Commissioner of Health c. Earl Albrecht believes that the action of the Territorial Legislature in allo- eating one-enth of all appropriations for tuberculosis will have the effect in Washington of loosening the Federal purse strings to enable enactment Of wider tuberculosis control program. These are encouraging words for Alaskans and Alaskans everywhere will share Dr. Albrechts hope that such program will be forthcoming with Federal aid in the near future
 At any rate we are that no person in Alaska could do better job of presenting to Congress and Federal agencies the facts supporting Aaskas needs for help in this pressing problem
 The problem is too big for Alaskans to shoulder alone In addition the incidence of tuberculosis among the Indians, Aeuts and Eskimos of Alaska, all wards of the Federal government actually makes the problem of tuberculosis control mainly Federal responsibility If anything is to be accomplished the Federal government will have to come through with more funds than the Territory has been able to appropriate.
 The program which Dr. Albrecht has suggested to the Indian Office is the building of at least three large sanatoriums in Alaska in which native sufferers will be cared for by the Federal government and whites by the Territory contract basis with the hospitals.

HOROSCOPE "The stdrs incline
 but do not compel"
TUESDAY, JUNE 4

HEART AND HOME
 This day is favorable for all do- mestic activities. Housewives and others who spend most of their time in the home are under friend ly influences. Many who are bed ridden will discover they have not been forgotten by their friends.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Those planning to borrow sub stantial sums of money should consider all the risks before finally committing themselves. In the hu- man mind there can be no such thing as complete certainty con- corning the future, but there should be a sense of confidence based on reasonable probabilities.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 The attitude that rules out the possibility of error and weakness in ld-established habits and institu- tions will not make for endurance, either in the community or the na- ton. Re-examination, acceptance of unfavorable facts and an open minded readiness to seek improve ment soon will be the demands of a large segment of this country's thinking population with reference to certain of our outmoded Gov ermental structures and procedures.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 Political developments in France will cause worldwide uneasiness in the near future.
 Persons whose birthdate this is are promised by the stars: A year of progress in their avocations and wealth of new friendships.
 Children born today will be en- dowed with the best talents of both parents, but the paternal in- fluences will be most readily iden- tified.

NAVY WIDOWS

The U. s. Naval hospital at Bethesda, Md, is the happy health resort of oldsters in Congress and the Cabinet. They flock in and out as if it were their second home. Senator McKellar of Tennessee was taken there recently; Cordell Hull lived there nearly year; Senator Reed of Kansas, when go- ing in for check-up complained bitterly because a war-weary staff aid not have someone available to carry his suitcase.
 Scarcely a week goes by that a Congressman, Senator or Cabinet officer does not make use of the Naval hospital. While no one be- grudges them this expert medical attention, families of veterans are beginning to wonder why the or phans of men killed in the war should be barred from Naval hos pitals.
 Not only in Washington. but throughout the country, the or phans of Navy veterans can't get attention at Naval hospitals. For instance, Mrs. Virginia Dillow of National City, Calif., whose hus- band was lost on the submarine S44, Dec. 4, l943, tried to get one of her two small children into the San Diego Naval hospital but was
