Bells of St. Mary's,i SENSATIONAL FILM OPENS AT 20TH CENTURY The story behind the blitzkrieg, | the spectacle of nations of the world careening madly along the road to war, comes to the n in Paramount’s challenging, sensa- | tional fact picture, , “World \n‘ Flames,” opening ' tonlght at the| 20th Century Theatre, Produced entirely from newsreels made in the period from 1929 to 1940, “World in Flames” accom- plishes what few motion pictures have ever attempted before. It makes clear to motion picture audi- ences, the events and processes that are now reaching their climax in he World War that now envelops Europe, Asi and Africa, and threatens to involve the Western Hemisphere. The personal stories of the news- reel men who made these shots; pictures of Dunkirk’s evacuation, of the bombing of defenseless Norweg- ian villa furnish much of the istartling material of “World n Flames.” In writing the continuity, the edi- tors have endeavored to show the connection between the world de- pression which began in 1929, and * the rapid rise of the dictator na- tions; between the fumbling de- ‘Ions:* of the democracies and the {growing audacity of the dictators. \ Happenings in Europe, the United States and Asia are brought into a' |related pattern in “World in| | Flames,” which, without editorial-| zing, still drives home the vital les- | |son of the need for speed in the| defense of America. - — : i | 'WAR BOND SALES - HIGH IN APRIL, ,PurchasiElast Month| Exceeds Quofa Sef | for May Alaska War Bond purchases dur- ing the month of April exceeded the quota set by the War Savings Staff of the U.

The Treasury Department cannot put too much stress on the absolute necessity for the setting of these quotas. Time is short and the ever- increasing demands of our war machine create an urgency that the billions which we need to win this war, and to do all in our power to check inflation, we must raise our sights. Alaska not only must meet the quotas which have been set; it must exceed them.” A breakdown of the sales for April follows: April Sales Anchorage $110,044.75 | Fairbanks 64,668.75 | Ketchikan 46,331.25 Kodiak 29,731.50 Juneau 27,051.25 Sitka 22,200.00 Cordova 10,068.75 Petersburg 1001250 !
