Note the wing of n PARISHMEETNGIS TOMORROW NIGHT Annual Reports and New Business Is Slated for Trinity Cathedral A parish meeting will be® held in Trinity Cathedral Hall tomor- row, (Wednesday) clock, to discuss matters of gen- eral interest to the members of the church. The most important matter will be that of plans for a new hall. Annual reports will be given by officers of the various organiza- tions, A ‘“get-together” social hour will also be enjoyed, and refreshments will be served by the Guild. All members of the church and those interested in its projects are | requested to be present. There will be no charge, and no funds will be solicited at the meeting, SILK STOCKING NOW MADE THAT (Continuea rrumn. ¥age One) |like a meal sack. They will out- wear silk stockings of equal weight, Miss O'Brien told the con- gressmen and should sell well“in certain parts of the country.” The remark about “certain parts of the country” sounded to us like |a let-down. Women like silk stock- \ings. When last we saw D: iley she was wearing silk | ings. But nurses are taking to white stay white washing. “Silk tends to yellow as it is laundered,” Miss O'Brien, “therefore nurses do not like silk hose so well, be- cause it spoils the effect of the white costume.” Just to prove the case, nurses at Garfield Hospital in Washing- ton are wearing the white cottons to see how they wear. Miss O'Brien stock- become night at 8 o'-| WON'T WEAR OUT after says | Rigidly a British sentry stands guard beneath a Royal Air Force plane “some- by the camouflage shaping up like lane at ton. didn't mention it, but if the cot-' ton hose have a bad effect on “nurse appeal,” that indefinable something about nurs the cotton stockings will lose the race. | STOCKINGS “TOO GOOD” | Yet we can't leave the subject| | without telling you the views of | Rep. Charles A. Plumley of Ver- |mont on the subject of the new synthetic hosiery. Dr. Stanley re- marked that when they were put sale one day in Wilmington, | Del. (Dupont center), they “were | grabbed right up.” | “And those put on sale the first | | “have never been worn out. So | the manufacturers have changed their formula and them of a little different grade now.” | “That will wear out?” asked the surprised Dr. Stanley. “That will wear out,” ]Plumley, “That is a fact.” I | “There is no demand for re- | placement, then?” inquired Rep_! Cannon of Missouri. | “No,” said Plumley, “you never have to buy another pair.” We asked Mr. Plumley where he got that information. We would} like to collect some of the “rlrst-l edition” hosiery, But Mr. Plumley | wasn't definite. He &.id he got the | information “generally from wo- | | men who, have tried them.” He said he had no such information | said | \direct from the Dupgnt factory. Mr. Plumley said he bad told the appropriations e “off | | the record” of other, commodities [ which were 50 good when first produced that the factories had to | change them so they would wear out and keep people coming back | for new goods. 'PONTIAC PURCHASED BY WILLIAM MARKLE The sale of a 1940 Pontiac Six Pontiac sport coupe to William Markle is announced by the Con- nors Motor Company. The five-passenger automobile is on display at the Connors Motor Co. today. Mr. Connors reports that Pontiac has completed its line for | this year with an entirely new car, ‘and today offer the widest choice |of any car on the market. e —— Today's News Today—Empire.

Rockefeller Center is at rear. FAULKNER TAKES PESSIMISTIC VIEW OF WAR CHANCES Speaker at Rofary Lunch- eon Warns of Probable Difficulties Ahead Expressing a fear that it will not day,” supplemented Mr. Plumley,|be “a simple matter of choice” as gstay out of the war, but observed to whether the United States stays out of the war, H. L. Faulkner, Ju- are making | n€au attorney, spoke on world affairs | and over again every generation.” at today’s Juneau Rotary Club| luncheon, “The British say they're confident they'll win,” Faulkner said, “but as you pick up the newspapers from day to day and read the real news, you don’t feel so confident.” Dangerous Assumption Faulkner said that Americans are banking on the assumption that England and France will win. Sup- posing they don't? Whichever side is beaten in this war is going to be beaten completely, he said. If Ger- many wins, it will certainly take outposts of territory in this hemi- spheer and concessions in Canada. “Then we're in the war,” Faulkner declared. “And we won’t have any British fleet; we won‘t have any | French army. We're in the war all | alone.’ ! Asserting that the world today is| figuratively not any larger than the | nation at the time of Abraham Lin- | coln, and recalling the President's | statement at that time that the | nation could not exist half slave and | half free, Faulkner said “the wnrkl; today cannot exist half slave and half free Continuous Fight He expressed a hope America could that it appears “freedom and liberty | and democracy must be won over Faulkner was the speaker at the |special “Rotary Observance Week” | luncheon of the Juneau club. Dr.| W. W. Council arranged the pro-| |gram and spoke on Rotary objec- tives, as did President Tom Dyer. Guests at the luncheon included | Walter Manahan of Seattle, Ivar| Anderson of Kodiak, Robert Dyer of Sitka and B. Frank Heintzleman, Stan Grummett, A.
