" ALASEA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION NATIC Alaska Newspapers, 1011 America S SPOT THE ALIEN’ If you had a Japanese, a German or an Ttalian working for you at the outbreak of the war, have you discharged him? i If you have u have breken faith with the very principle of democracy which this country is| fighting to defend That, in essence, was the gist of a statement made early this month by Attorney General Francis Biddle, into whose lap the problem of dealing with enemy aliens has been dumped The apprehension of aliens from the enemy | countries was shrouded in myste during the fir |: few weeks of the war. We knew that FBI's | were “picking up” Japanese, Germans and Ttalians, but we were not told who they were or how many were grabbed. This week Biddle announced that actually, out of a total non-citizen population of about 5,000,000 in the United States and possessions, | les 3,000 have been r 1 as dangerous tol the peace and safety of the nation and have been taken into custody This is, boiled down, at the ratio of six out of every 10,000. The other aliens in this country, who are at liberty, must be of unquestioned loyalty. Where citi- had their birthright as a protection against inquiry into their patriotism, the eyes of the law, of necessity, looked down the necks of all aliens when the war broke out. Those millions who have passed the acid test of investigation and are al- lowed all the privileges of American citizenship must be presumed to have proven themselves worthy the trust imposed in them. Yet within a few days after this country went to war a flock of reports came pouring into the Department of Justice regarding employers who had discharged workers because of some vague suspicion of them or because they had “foreign-sounding” names Said Biddle about this “No more short-sighted, wasteful or un-American | palicy could possibly be adopted at this time than | that of barring non-citizens from legitimate private employment. In the first place, it is a most effective people who have come to America as a haven of liberty fair play It is a complete disavowal of our American itutions, our freedoms, and the principles upon which our democracy was founded.” | Many of these aliens who have been discharged now have sons serving in the armed forces of the U. 8. Among the names of service men who died fighting off the treacherous attac! upon Manila Pearl Harbor those opening days of the war agners, Petersens, Monzos, Rossinis, Muellers and were and Rasmussens There is only one restriction to alien employ- ment in the laws of the country. In the case of ecret, confidential or restricted government con- tracts, and in the case of contracts for aircraft parts or accessories, the employer must secure per- mission from the head of the federal department concerned before employing aliens. The War and v Departments handle such applications and passed upon thousands of them. Few have denied work, even on such confidential jobs. “War threatens all civil rights; and although we have fought wars before, and our personal freedoms have survived, there have periods of gross use, when hysteria and hate and fear ran high, and minorities were unlawfully reminded, very who cares about freedom, about a government by -and freedom is based on fair administration of the law— been when man 3iddl law must fight for it for the other man with whom he disagrees, for the right of the minority, for the chance for the underprivileged with the same pas- | sion of insistence as he claims for his own s “If we care about democracy, we must care about it as a reality for others as well as for uul selves; yes, for aliens, for Germans, for Italians, for panese, for those who are with us as well as |those who are against us: For the Bill of Rights | protects not only Americans citizens but all human beings who live on our American soil, under our American flag. The rights of Anglo-Saxons, of Jew of Catholics, of negroes, of Slavs, Indians—all are alike before the law And this we must remember and sustain—that is if we really love justice, and really hate the bayonet and the whip and the gun, and the whole Gestapo method as a way of handling human beings.” Improvements at Addis Ahaba (New York Herald-Tribune) Returning to Addis sror Haile Se- Jassie has found many improvements, the result of Italian occupation.—News dispatch: Addis Ababa has many new buildings, Addis Ababa is neatly arranged There's an opera house with rich Florentine gildings, There’s a big marble bank where one’s money gets changed Addis Ababa is reached by broad highways— Even in Europe no finer are found Addis Ababa has parks and green byways And also an oversized burial ground Addis Ababa has water by system; Gone are the ditches, the runnels and rills Hot and cold faucets—you've only to twist ‘em— Are fed by 2 reservoir up in the hills. Addis Ababa has built some new swim pools, Done in a way that old Rome used to tile 'em. Addis Ababa has black and white gym schools— And also a very large orphan asylum. Manila’s population included only a few Ameri- cans, but the city was American in appearance, being crowded with automobiles, streetcars, movies, billbcards, neon lights, and merchandise from the United States With tire and automobile rationing ahead the and cruelly| all | method of creating disunity, of breaking faith with | as good an exercise as the physical culturists claim. | LEONOFF SERVICES WILL BE SUNDAY AFTERNOON AT 2 Funeral ‘setvices: for Valentin Leonoff, who died a week ago, will be held tomorrow aftéernoon at 2 o'clock in the Chapel of the C.

Desperate need of the fullest participation in the world conflict will be answered by such a demonstration of our power that Britain and Russia will be galvanized into rdnewed efforts that mean final success.

Instead of an overcoat for a growing boy, con- sider a whipcaord or gabardine uti ity coat with warm fleece lining. Buy clothes to be worn a second year, a size larger than they need.
