This systematic of the literary treasures of Alaska is being undertaken in the name of the Library of Congress and under authority granted by the Metropolitan of the Russian Orthodox Church, which claims over the old Russian churches in Alaska is that the records looting jurisdiction The idea of the Russian colonization will be gathered together | in one place, which is Washington, D. C. Once the documents reach the vaults of the Library of Congress they will never find their way back to Alaska probably will never heard of or looked at again. It is right that these old volumes be put in safe keeping. But the place to bring them together #y coltection is the Histovieal Library of the Territory $fof Alaska and not the Library of Congress, where they will be lost among millions of other books. Michael Z. Vinokouroff, the Library of Congress representative who is taking up the present col- lection, even claims several volumes from the Terr! torial Library here. He has in his effort to take the old books off | shelves, but promises to be back " ity to seize them Among those who are Vinokouroff’s raid is Archie W.

The fifth columnists in every democratic coun- try have abused their liberties. They are as low and groveling a form of human life as one can imagine. But they cannot be successfully fought by taking away the liberties of loyal citizens or of law- abiding aliens who are honestly grateful for the hos- pitality they have found here. Whatever happens we must stand firm in friendship for all who love liberty. | Air Bases. Needed | (Cincinnati Enquirer) A ship is similar to an airplane in that it must have a base. It may be able to stay at sea for weeks or months, but finally it must find a safe harbor | where it can be outfitted and made ready for an- other voyage. The British have world power because | in every quarter of the globe they have adequate naval bases. Halifax and Vancouver on this conti- nent are typical examples. One reason the navy of the Kaiser was handicapped was that as soon as it was out of German waters, it was obliged to depend on the hospitality of foreign ports. Hitler's navy suffered from the same disadvan- tage. When war was declared his battleships were | | left with no place to go except home, This is a situation which irks the Germans. ‘They look with envy on the British Empire because it is not cabined, cribbed, and confined, but is spread out over the seven seas. And if air power is to be the mighty force of the future, then more than ever Germany must have airports so located as to over- awe the nations. Her mighty birds of prey must have places on which to light and replenish their cargoes of bombs and gasoline, There is one thing certain. If Germany should vanquish the Allies and as the price of peace demand Newfoundland, Bermuda, the Bahamas, Jamaica, and Trinidad, we would be in the fight instantly. We could not endure the near presence of such a ruth- less and dangerous neighbor. This is not pleasant to think about, but there is no limit to Hitler's am- bition. We might just as well consider all contin- gencies. Certainly we shall be in a sad state if we are not prepalvd for whntever dire event may happen.

The British War Ministry con- tinues to rush thousands of sol- diers, guns and tanks across the English Channel to aid the forces in France fighting the Nazi hordes.
