NATIONAL REPRFSENTATIVES — Alaska Newspapers, ‘rou Américan Building, Seattle, Wash, GERMA MORALE Reports seeping out of Nazi-land tend to sub- stantiate statements from Englend that the morale of the German people is nearing the shattering point after the recent heavy raids on German industrial centers Even as ruined Cologne still burned, all air raid precaution services were placed under the command of Gestapo chief Heinrich Himmler. The order for this step was signed by fat Reichmarshal Hermann Wilhelm Goering, who once promised the German people that no British bombs would fall on them. More than 250,000 Nazi stormtroopers have been stationed at strategic points throughout Berlin in order to prevent workers’ uprising: Men and wom- | en who talk about the effectiveness of the British raids are dealt with These latest raids are The terrible attacks which | were predicted for this war by air-minded men who foresaw the potential might of the air branch of the armed forces A We have no doubt but what the morale of the German people is near the breaking point. When 1,250’ planes drop 6,000,000 pounds of bombs on you, as the British did in the Cologne raid, ,morale is something and fear and terror are other things . When the British dropped the 3,000 tons of ex- on Cologne, the damage caused could scarcely . Cologne, for all praetical plosives have been exaggerated. purposes, was destroyed Something had happened which the German people had been told would not happen. The news has spread throukhout the Reich and the people know that the Cologne affair was the first of many more to come. The growing aerial might of the United States and Britain indicates that the next raids will bé even larger and more terrible. NATIONAL INCOME According to Department of Commerce figures, the United States in April had an estimated income of $8,784,000,000.- Based on this estimate, the na- tional income for the year mav reach $109 billion. In fact, it is not at all improbable but what the figure this year may outdistance all' previous figures by as much as $20 billion. This is undeniably an impressive fact, and it |at war. | the future But it does not necessarily mean that we are prosperous. Not that many Americans are not better off to- day tHan they were a year ago. Many are making as much in a day as they were in a' wéék a year ago. » But the vast majority of our citizens actually find | that they are making less' money now than' in 1941, since the value of money i§ determined otily’ By the amount of goods it can'buy. Actually, many million§ of Americans are facing a reduced’ standard of living. The difference between our néw huge produc- tivé power and our reduced standard of living makes up the major sacrificé of the majority of Americans u\ this war. But there does seem to be some comfort in this bounding income. It proves our power to produeé wealth, even though that wealth now ¢onsists' of the | machines of war and other agénts of destruction. If, once the victory is ours, we can turn this new m-oducnnn Goliath to the efforts of waging peace, the national income now is a forecast of the immense power we shall have to lift our standard of living in Laboratory Praining (New York Times) After a tour of the combat training units' of our flying forces, Captain Rickenbacker reports that he found morale high among the young airmen and that they were veterans in skill- and" training ' compatred with the green pilots who, like himself, went into*the air over France in 1917. A much mord thorough jobl is being done this time. For example: ' At the' Doug- las plant in California special cold-room' laboratories simulate, on the ground, the below-zero cold of the substratosphere; cold 'evén' more paralyzing that that which immobilized in great degree the Nuzi aiy force in last winter’'s Russian campaign. Here, too, pliots; bombardiers and navigatots are accustomed’ to the | necessary use of oxygen and inured to the low pres- sures which, despite pressuré cabins, must be mét in the air above 30,000 feét. Machines as well as men' are tested for altitude flight. - Their lubrication, the functioning of fuels at temperatures of 50" or ‘more degrees below zero, the very adherénce of the camou- flage paint to their metal surfdces, are made certain under stratospheré: conditions. The laboratory is the modern traiuing school. The British are making use of nlanetaria; not unlike the Hayden Planctariumi to' train' a new maritime | regiment to man seagcing anti-aircraft guns. These ea soldiers” must go through a course in a “domé” training school. The British radio revealed the other night that here the gunners see a realistic reproduc- | tion of the stars and the movements of the heavens by night. Against this naturalistic sky, full-sized Heinkels and other enemy planes are projected by | means of a film. They swoop and dive with the roar of a real plane toward the students at the gunsight, while a trainer keeps his eye on & spot of light on the screen where sights must converge in order to score a Wit in a vulnerable spot. Thus the successors of Cromwell's “sea dogs” learn before they go to sea the quick coordination required in a dive-bombing attack if they are to protect the bridge of ships. Instances could be multiplied in almost every branch of military service in which the men of re- search are playing an important part in preparing the armed forces for the hard tests of modern war. Mr. J. Louis (Philadelphia Record) Joe Louis was one of Uncle Sam’s very best “tax collectors.” Every time Joé packed the fight fans in by thousands, Uncle reaped a harvest in ticket sales.} S0 the Federal Treasury can thank"Louis for at least a cool million in winnings. On two recent’ oc- casiohs. the same Louis has donated his ehtire purses to the Army-Navy relief. Now he’s having trouble paying his own income ax for last yéar; is drawing only $21 a month as a private and asks Uncle’s permission to put on an- |other title fight to “square up” his tax bill and hand ! the rest to Army-Navy relief.

GOVERNMENT IN EXTLE President Quezon, who has kmown most members of the U. S. Senate intimately for many yéars, already has rallied hic government, cabinet meetings in Washington and is laying plans for the return to Manila. One thing that irks him is the dictum put forward by High Com- missioner Francis Sayre that all letters from Quezon to the U. S.| Government must clear through Sayre. Tt so happens that Quezon knows many U. S, officials betl.erl‘ t not Friends of Quezon say that during But | ™ States, | holds | | with others. So the idea of using | the stiff, protocolic channél of the | Hignh' Commissioner annoys him to | the core. | As a matter of fact, many U. |s. officials believe that earlier re- lations with the Philippine Presi- |dent, especially at Corregidor, were handled too diplomatically. the war-weary weeks that he was cooped up on Corregidor, High Com- joner Sayre came to' Him and inquired leaving. Quezon sald he planned |to go to the southeérn islands, un- |occupied by the Japs, and rest “The Filipinos would never sur- 3rcndrr me up,” he explained, “and I could stay there indefinitely.” But Commissioner Sayre argued that they shovld both remain in Corregidor to the very end. | “We should die if necessary,” said | sayre, proposing that they set an to the Filipino people. The next day General MacAr- Ythur came to see President Que- zon, as he did every.day, and Que- zon told him of his conversation | with Commissioher Sayre. “That's funny,” remarked Mac- Arthur, “Sayre was in to séé me i]ust two or three days ago want- ing me to cable Washington for a !submarine to take him home. I re- |fused, but told him that if he |wanted to draft the cable himself \T would send it under his name.” i Shortly thereaftér Admiral Rock- Iwell sent a submarine from near- by waters. By this time relations betwéen Quezon and Sayre had be- come so strained that Quezon and | Vice President Osmena refused to |leave on the same submarine with Sayre. And since President Roose- |velt some time before had invited | |Quezon to come to the United States, Gen. MacArthur intervened |and sent the Philippine President and Vice President out of Corregi- dor first, taking them to the south- ern islands.
