IKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BB LAHORE THAN THAT Of ANT OTHER PUBLICATION. NATIONAL REPRESENTATIVES - Alette Hew IPS pare, ltll Uaarlcan Bulldinr. Seattle. Wash. _p* MAYBE WE ARE LUCKY If we haven't been properly appreciative of what it means to have no rationing of foodstuffs in Al aska, this editorial in the Cincinnati Enquirer, com menting upon the “simple" system of rationing, should make us so: Some mathematically minded gent in the Office | of War Information has devised a very "simple" for- j mula for budgeting food ration points on a weekly 1 basis. There's nothing to it, the OWI man says. All you do is multiply your 48 points by the number of persons in the family—if there are four the total is 192. We can get that far. But after that we get all balled up, because you have to divide the result by the number of weeks in the month and that gets into fractions and the whole thing leaps out'of hand. In the end we don't know anymore about how many points we have per week than we did before we started. The OWI fellow apparently wasn't so hot on it either, for he said March had 41.- weeks. The way we figure, its 4 3 7 weeks and to divide that into 192 isn’t simple for an editorial writer. It’s Impossible! l^nd-Lease Aid From China (New York Times> Half the lend-lease supplies forwarded for China ! are said to have come to rest In India. They can’t all be flown "over the hump” to Chungking. They can move in quantity only after the Burma Road I has not only been reconquered but rebuilt. This j probably can't be accomplished before the end of the rainy season, next fall. It can’t be accomplished without control of the Indian Ocean and the recap ture of Rangoon, which may not be possible until we have freed United Nations warships and mer chant ships by mastering the Mediterranean and smashing the submarine attack now in progress. With every possible ounce of good-will, with every , realization of the importance of China and the Chi ' nese in our final victory, we cannot do very much i for them, except in the air and by sending medicines I and other supplies of value but small bulk, for some ; months. It looks as though our Government wishes | to and is getting ready to do quite a lot then. Mme. | Chiang Kai-shek's visit has helped to strengthen such a resolve. Meanwhile there is no apparent lessening of the Chinese will to do what they can for themselves with what they have. About six weeks ago the Japanese became active on the Burma-Yunnan border, and later in Central China, on the Yangtze. Owen Latti more makes a point about these campaigns in the current issue of Foreign Affairs. The Japanese can light effectively in open country, the Chinese in the hills and in any country broken by water or afford ing cover. A week ago the Japanese made advances around the Tungting Lake, near the Yangtze, above Hankow. Now they are being chased back. There has also been fighting on the Yunnan-Burma border, or near it, though it has been hard to tell whether the Japanese are trying to take the important Chi nese city of Kunming, or merely to forestall a Chi nese advance into Burma. What is important for us is that the Chinese arc holding and killing Japanese troops which could otherwise be used against us. This is China's lend-lease aid to us, and considerably greater than our lend-lease aid to her. We ought to be ready to pay it back, with interest, when we can. A Hopeful Sign i Cincinnati Enquirer i That part of the report of the Natural Resources Planning Board which recommends changes in the present lax structure to allow the building of cash reserves by industry, such reserves to be used for conversion to peacetime operation after the war ends, is a sensible proposition. As was pointed out by this newspaper some weeks ago, many dangers of postwar economic recovery can be avoided if industry is able to switch swiftly from war production into production for peace. Large expenditures will be necessary to make the change over; under the present tax system it is impossible for industries to build up adequate reserves against I this postwar emergency. Under the best of conditions there will be a period of unemployment during the weeks when plants switch their machines and tools from war ma terials to normal items of trade. Unless industry has sizable cash reserves on which to operate, these periods of unemployment may be so long that dis aster and depression will result. It is hopeful to learn that a Federal agency, among other agencies which so long have ham strung industry, now is actually foreseeing the need for reserves after the war and is admitting the im possibility of building such reserves without changes in present tax regulation. 1ISO FOR i THE USA _ i Fallowing is the official program for the week at the USO: Wednesday, April 7, 8:30 p.m.—' Square dancing in USO lobby.

Well just have to report, quite inadequately, that everything clicked — decorations, games, music, dancing, the floor show, and food—with the result that it seems to he the unanimous opinion of the many servicemen present that this was the best all around affair in Juneau USO his tory. Thanks, GSO, most gratefully!

MMEJGLAM mws ENGSTROM ELECTED HEAD OF DOUGLAS ADMINISTRATION In one of the quiestest city elec tions held in several years Doug las voters elected Elton Engstrom for Mayor, and Thomas Cashen, Sante Degan and R. A. Hollings worth as new councilmen for the 1943-1944 term. For member of the School Board, Arne Shudshift was elected to succeed himself.

Chester H. Christenson Cedric Davis August P. Anderson Ruth Iffert Mary Monagle Ruth St. Clair Dorothy T. Thomsen R. H. Harvey HOROSCOPE “The stars incline but do not compelV Thursday, April 8 l Good and adverse planetary in fluences appear to balance today There is a fortunate sign for n.i val activities by United Nations HEART AND HOME: Women should pursue routine tasks undo.' this configuration. It is not an au spicious date for beginning any im portant work. Girls should not think twice of young men whom jthey meet for the first time under this rule of the stars. Sincerity will be lacking among new acquaint [ cnees of opposite sex. Moving pit ture stars and prominent society women will seek small houses or apartments this month and next when the mansions of prewar days become impassible to maintain. BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Inviting spring days will tempt many tc spend mdhey in recreation. Al though pleasure driving may be forbidden novel methods of trans portation will prove adequate for thousands weary of the war work which has filled their purses with dollars. Proprietors of hotels and pleasure resorts will profit despite many handicaps in providing food and service. Legislation of great j importance Is foretold. NATIONAL ISSUES: Wide dif ferences of opinion will be expressed with emphasis regarding world war issues. Again tire Japanese problem in the United States will he dis cussed widely. The loyalty of Or ientals who are citizens will be questioned as methods of just treat ment are studied. In Hawaii there will be continued acceptance of ! faith in the Japanese, many of .whom will continue to serve in re sponsible positions, but suspicion will exist in certain quarters. Astrologers discern sinister omens which seem to warn that vigilance must not relax. INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: Jupiter elevated at Delhi seems to presage less tension in India where the summer is to be gravely event ful. especially as the public health will add to the concern of Britain and the United Uations. Owing to certain good aspects in the horos cope of Germany remarkable en durance may be expected through coming weeks of Nazi fighting. Re volutionary influences will grow stronger in the subjugated nations of Europe where many lives of men and women loyal to their native ; lands will be sacrificed. Unrest . among the German people will spread as rumor’s of Hitler's 111 j ness or death circulate from time to time. Persons whose birthdate it is have i the augury of a year of advance ment in novel vocations or strange professions. Activity that brings con tentment is indicated. Children born on this day pro ibably will be exceedingly clever and ambitious. Success Is foretold for them.

Harry Carey, long-time star of the movies got his biggest off-the - screen laugh here the other night. It was during a curtain speech at a premiere for the motion picture, "Air Force." The last sequence in the film shows an all-out air attack on a Jap convoy of 20 or 30 ships, in which vitually every one of them was sunk and 30 or 40 enemy places were downed. “You Jthow," said Carey, “when this picture opened in New York four weeks ago, the critics were I right nice but a lot of them kicked about that last sequence. They said: 'Hollywood's always got to be like that and overdo it.’ Of course that was before Qeneral JdacArthur and his boys in the Battle of the Bis marck Sea showed Hollywood what pikers we were.” DIRECTORY nJESSL j Drs.
