STREAMS IMPROVED, CULBERTSON SAYS Salmon streams flowing into Chatham Straits, along the west coast of Chichagof Island and in Icy Straits are flowing well, provid- ing lots of escapement for spawn- ing salmon, and the pink run has apparently hit up streams. Such was the report brought here this morning by J. Steel Culbertson, Assistant Fisheries Supervisor, after about a week’s trip on the Brant, checking streams in those sections. The fisheries boats Swan II and Heron are patroling other sections of the Juneau district to check on stream conditions. Along with the fisheries men aboard the Brant were three can- nery officials.

My be as powerful as be | day, September well received voice may not that of Dr. Laszlo but I may thankful for that, if the only privi- lege of power is to allow one io make critical statements of fellow |men. A criticism of another m |raiges us to greater heights o in our own estimation. He calls us “bums.” We have but one similarity: that fact that we both migrate, but unlike a vagrani, we work for a living and the word “home” means something, for that | spirit of creating a home goes with us wherever we may be. When I was a child had a little boy in our neiglhiborhood who would throw stones and run. Chil- dren are tclerant and we always forgave him and forgot. Now that he is a man he is judged by men and few adults can countenznce his “stone throwing.” Mr. Laszlo has thrown we a stone at us and run back to the securit; the I'h of Connecticut without seeing effect this affront might have. grant he has every right to msg whatever statements he wishes. The point to which I object is the f that he has been so inclusive. didn’t say “construction wor or even “some defense workers. |didn’'t say “those will |came in contact in su 'a place;” nor did he s of those defense workers in your city about who I know nothin and therefore am not qualified to comment.” No, he was quite mag- nanimous in making his statements jentirely inclusive. He meant the bosses, engineers, and skilled work- men employed in your communily on defense projects, as well as else- where in Alaska We can't expect him to deplore the harm that he has done. T2 repair this damage is the task he leaves for us throughout the months to come, in your community and our “adopted” community, We were received here with the generosity and kindness for which the Alas- kan people are famous and w2 have made many friends. Friends which we hope to keep. I assure you we share with Dr. Laszlo a profound admiration fo Alaskan wildlife and have no in | tention nor desire to “slaughter the game” nor to find our “chief en- tertainment” in “getting drunk in | cocktail bars.” That form of en- tertainment would hardly prepare us to maintain the high standard | of workmanship which is roquired of us. It is a most untimely period in | which to cast reflections upon de- fense projects or their workers, and red-blooded s Americans we re- sent it. Speaking for ourselves, those of us living in your community, may |we say it has been our intention in the past months and our de- sire in the future to be found peace loving, honest and industrious- |asset to your community whose in- | terest and welfare has become ours. | May this stone have cast its | final ripple | (Signed) Wife of a HosriTaL NoTES Mrs. W.

BATAVIA, Dutch East Indies— Its striking power increasing daily, the Dutch navy guarding the Netherlands East Indies is ready to meet any threat to these raw material arsenals of the Al- lies and the United States. Al- though the Germans now occupy Holland, our Queen and Govern- ment carry on the battle from London, the East Indies are free, and the past year has been one of exhaustive preparation in the de- fense sphere. ¢ In an amazingly short time, the | Sourabaya naval base has become | a formidable strongheld and naval production center. The Indies are basically an agricul- tural country and it was impos- sible to build shipyards for con- | siiuction of large men-of-war. | Nevertheless, now roaming the | Archipelago with unflagging vig- | flance are patinl hoats, rmosquito | boats, submarine chasers, mine !

For flying boats, seaplanes and larger type ships we are dependent on foreign countries, principally the United States. Outbreak of the war inter- rupted plans to construct battle cruisers in the Netherlands ship- yards, so our fleet consists only of cruisers, destroyers, sub- marines and smaller ships and— just as important as any of the other units—the fleet air arm, which we started to build up sev- eral years before the war. In the forefront everywhere in the world is the question of “ship vs. planes.” With the devel- opment of air power has come the additional query, “Can mas- tery of the seas be exercised from the air?” I hold that aerial, sur- face and undersea units should all be used, and that best re: sults will be obtained only through close cooperation be- tween all three services. Planes serve as the eyes of our fleet. But they can be more--its sharp, dan. | ous claws, tedaring at thel hundreds of contestants we: TS YER RABBITS whoppers caught in the annual Salmon Fishing Derby on Puget enemy,” destroying * his. transport ships and weapons and warding off the aggressor until help can arrive, Our fleet and air arms are ready for action. Within a few hours after the code word *“Berlin,” signifying outbreak of the war, was flashed from Batavia, all German ships that had taken refuge in our ports | were seized before their crews could wreck them, and these ships now are employed in the Allied merchant marine, which in- cludes 3,000,000 tons of Dutch craft. From that day we intensified the patrol by ships and air- craft, on the alert for Axis raid- ers and merchantmen, and our training schools for European and native personnel for all de- | fense branches are in full swing. On May 14, 1940, when the Nazis overran Holland, the Neth- | erlanders put out tc sea. The tide was very low.
