When Mrs. Fohn- Hansen first
came to Alaska, family living ia
this vast Territory was extremely
rigorous. Whether or not a fam
lily remained in the Territory was
largely determined BY the wife
and mother. This IS still true, DR..
Mick said, although recent years
have brought great advances in
community and family living.
DR.. Mick continued:
TO Mrs. Fnhn-H ansen's faith
in people and faith in the Terri
tory can be attributed large

ton now enjoyed by Alaska's po-
pulation $50 better homes, more
skillful use Of local resources,
more children attending schools

VALLEY FORGE. Pa. July

Boy Scouts got up to the crisp
sound of scores of bugles at
Z am. today to greet the OPEN
ing day of the 4th National
Jamboree here.
The smell of breakfast COM
ing out of some 5000 patrol
kitchens spread throughout the
colorful tent city on the roll
ing hills Of this historic site.
Good weather. if threatened
by light showers. is expected
to keep throughout this gigan-
tic event. which will end on
Thursday. It's theme: Onward
for God and My Country"
This is the second time the
scouts have selected Valley
Forge as a Jamboree site. The
first one was held in Washing
ton in 1887 with 1892 scouts
and leaders attending.
Scouts from all over the Ma
ton, territories and several
countries started to arrive here
three days ago. Some stragglers
still have not found their way
to Jamboree City.
Area COntigent Arrives

400 Washington area Scouts

Court Backs
Claim for Aid
GuerriIIus

A woman who operated a
nightclub in Manila during the
japanese occupation and who
furnished money and supplies
to guerrilla forces was found
by Court of Claims today to be
entitled TO reimbursement.
The court. hearing the case
in response o a Senate resolu-
ton adopted in 1852. recon-
mended to Congress that Mrs.
Claire Phillips Clavier be award
ed $l,349. She had originally
asked $l46.850. but this claim
was later scaled down to S52,-
I6l7. The court said the $l.346
was the amount Of her actual
contributions as shown by the
record.
Shortly after the Japanese
occupied Manila. Mrs. Clavier
opened the Tsubaki Club.
which catered TO japanese off,
GERS and civilians. From the
club she obtained funds which,
1t is claimed, we're used for the
benefit Of guerrilla forces as
we'll as for American soldiers
in enemy prison camps and
hospitals.
Mrs. Clavier later was ar
rested by the japanese and
sentenced TO death. but the
sentence was reduced 10 a
prison term. She later wrote a
book entitled Manila Espion-
age published in l947.
The court, in an opinion by
Chief Judge Marvin Jones.
found that many Of Mrs. Claw
ier's claims we're exaggerated.
But it concluded that her SYM
pathies and efforts were on
our side in a time OF great
emergency"

what a separate theater of
operations the Shenandoah
Valley is from the rest of
Virginia. Grant had 100000
men in the Army of the
Potomac, but they were east
of the Blue Ridge.
When Early licked Hunter
in the valley and Hunter
retreated through the noun
tains toward the Ohio, there
was nothing between Early
and the Capital, and Early
had a corps, more than
10000 men. All he had to
do was to go down the valley
to Harpers Ferry, cross the
Potomac there and descend
on Washington from the
north.
And that's just what he
did.
The Civil War has often
been called the first railroad
war. 1t was also the first
telegraph war. Soldiers
didn't know quite what to do
about these new methods of
transportation and COM
munication. It didn't seem
right to interfere with the
trains. Again and again
Union officers went through
Confederate lines as passen-
gers on the Bro.
Early's scouts failed to
cut the railroad telegraph
line and, as he counted with
amaSement the large number
of Confederate troops going
north. the B&O telegraph
operator kept sending the
totals to Baltimore.
Gen. Lew Wallace, the
Hoosier who was later to
write Ben Hur. made up a
force from the wounded in
Baltimore hospitals and 90
day men and the B&O got
them to Frederick. They took
up positions on the west
bank of the Monocacy.
But 1t was not until three
days after the Harpers Ferry
crossing that Gen. Grant
acted. He sent two corps
by river steamers from City
Point on the James to
Washington. The GAR gen.
eral was with them.
There are no contemporary
reports that WASHINGTON
was saved when Early and
his officers took time out in
the wine cellar of Mont
gomery Blair of Silver
Spring.

SEND A KID TO CAMP
Denied Last Year,
Bi|IyHopefuI Now

MY mother said for me to
come over here" Billy told
the worker at the community
house.
Billy arrives before opening
time in the morning and /:
the last to leave.
Sometimes he gives specia
reason for arriving so early
One day. he explained. it was
because he was eager to show
his friends at the community
house his cowboy hat.
The community house is
closed in the evening during
the summer. Then Billy is
really ,alone.
Billy's mother has lived in
a stupor since his father was
killed in an accident some time
ago. She uses alcohol to dull
the pain. There are Just Billy
and his mother in the house,
which she keeps in order. But
Billy takes care of himself. And
there is not always enough
food and milk.
Now 8. Billy does beauti-
fully in art class at the COM
munity house. He makes Won
derful figures. and takes them
to his mother for praise. His
mother can't quite hold them.
They drop to the floor and
break.
I'm old enough to go to
camp this year-can't I go this
year?" Billy asked the commu-
nifty house worker. He was
bitterly disappointed when he
