Ascot, nearest towns to the Surrey
County manor house an hours drive

Duke Has Little to Say.
Police disclosed no details of the
robbery and the duke himself had
little to say.
The duchess and I are victims of
this robbery" he told reporters. THE
case is entirely in the hands Of the
police and I have, therefore, no
statement to make

suit and red and black mufi1er, was
observed walking about the grounds

II Is The Republicans in Congress

who have started a movement to
get through an act for a referendum
to make the Presidents term' six
years and limit him to one term
only. Thus a President could give
his entire thought to serving the
Nation and be relieved of shaping
his acts with view TO aaotner
term. There is at least fair chance
that such an amendment would be
approved by two-thirds of the
States. 1t would be long ster
toward better government. AS what
has happened to us internally in the
last score of years becomes clearer
and the grevious errors we have
made weigh on us ever more heav
lily, it is likely we would welcome
a chance to limit future President:
to one term. A four year term ane
limit would be decidedly better thar
six years.

National Guard Is re-established.

Lexington then, may have the bat
terry back if we have energy enough
to go get it. 1t will take responsible
officers with ability and experience

With the increased pay and larger
numbers in a Battery the pay roll

It would be pathetic if we muffed this grand opportunity"
 The committee is considering legislation to keep OPA going for another year. Vinson said treasury receipts were larger than estim- ated, and expenditures smaller than expected. "The two together mean we are well on the way to balanced budget" He disputed contentious of the National Asso- citation of Manufacturer that the removal of all price controls would stimulate the production of scarce goods.

Army Day To Be Observed April 0

Headquarters Alaskan Depart ment-With many bitter memories of World War II still vivid in the minds of Americans, but with the pleasant realization that fer the first time in four years the United States Army is not locked in battle in some far-flung corner of the globe, the American soldier will again be accorded the plaudits of the Nation on Army Day, April 6, l946.
 In the Alaskan Department, where memories of hard fighting under severe handicaps of terrain and weather still finger, to say nothing of a tremendously diff cult defense role during much of the struggle, plans are rapidly taking shape for a celebration of Army Day as extensive as condi- tiOns will permit. Special radio programs will be broadcast at all posts, camps, and stations in the Territory, from Attu Island on the tip of the Aleutian Chain to Fair banks in the heart of the Alaskan mainland, to Nome in the extreme North. Highlights of these pro grams will be a message from Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, Chief of Staff, and a transcription of Command Performance" prepar- ed by leading entertainers through out the United States. Tn some instances locally produced pro- grams will also be featured.
 In a recent message to all com manding generals of the Army, Chief of Staff Dwight D. Eisen- hover stated: "The object of these ceremonies should be to recognize the great accomplishments of the Army through hOnoring the vet eranS of World War I and World War II. Through the cooperation of veterans organizations, all former members of the Army, now returned to civilian life, should be encouraged to wear the uniform and to participate in par ades and other ceremonies. Such arrangements should be sought as will permit the participation by as many members of the community as possible in honoring the war time Army.
 Tt is my personal opinion that the greatest single motivating power for world peace is the or ganized military potential of the United States--its resources, it's technological advancement and it's trained manpoWer."
