NATIONAL REPRESENTATIVES — Alaska Newspapers, 1011 American Building, Seattle, Wash. ce, $7.80; POLICY NEEDED The testimony of high War Department officials before the Senate Military Committee that our army mobilization plans still are in state of flux Secretary of War Henry Stimson told the Senators that our 1943 army man power needs would amount to 7.500,000 men—an estimate which shows that mass army policy is in favor. He was followed, how- ever, by General George C. Marshall, Army Chief of Staff, who, in urging the drafting of 18- and 19- year olds, revealed that the release of older draftees from the army is being contemplated. The selective program, and enlistments, already have cut appreciably the indus- trial and productive capabilities of the nation. The lowering of the draft age would take several million men from industry. There is some comfort to be | found, therefore, in the indication that older men, who are of little use anyhow in the Army, will be released from service and returned to the industrial man-power pool of the nation. The release of these older men will not be with- out its complications, however. It may arouse some morale problems, especially among the older soldiers who are net mustered out of service. And it also, of course, involves some waste of the expense of training these older men. Training a man in the arts and skills of modern war expensive business. That does not mean the policy should not be adopted. But it does emphasize the fact that chang- are costly.

What human heart but knows a wilder- But not the bitter experience it-| self should stand out as all-important. What kind of a soldier am I? That is the question. A well- loved writer who had learned in such warfare to maintain an attitude of gratitude, thanked God for | the pleasures he had enjoyed, and prayed, “Now,| when the clouds gather and the rain impends—per- mit us not to be cast down-—let grateful memory | survive in the hour of darkness.” New faith springs up as one re of the triumphs of such God-inspired as| Moses, Elijah, David, Daniel. Victorious convictions | result from the study of Christ Jesus' marvelous demonstrations. His lifework was one glorified triumph over materiality, sense-testimony, mortality There was no failure in his ministry, and no limita- tion but was suddenly dissipated. And it was because he knew how to thank God—how to let grateful realization of what God is, destroy the claims of evil His words, “O Father,” invariable attitude. Everyone needs to learn the importance of giving | thanks, the value of continued praise to God. T)\l‘i Psalmist gave simple yet direct counsel in his well- | known words, “Enter into His gates with thanks- | giving, and into His courts with praise.” A rule it is, and a command also. It is as if he had said that | gratitude takes one inside the gates of God's king- dom on earth, and praise brings one into His pres- ence. It takes both gratitude and joy. both thanks- giving and praise to God, to gain the certain realiza- tion of the very presence of infinite Love, where burdens drop away and new blessings appear. The importance of being grateful now, even in the very midst of difficulties, mental or physical, should be remembered, if one desires to gain victory over them. How familiar is this argument of the adversary: You should be very careful of this giving | Subtle arguments of doubt that good will come, or that God can always | be depended wpon to be infinitely omnipotent, die | away whenever one is being grateful for past and present blessings. What peace comes to those wir, though standing | in the midst of earth’s storms, feel the presence of | God with them! Those who “let grateful memory survive” thank God and rejoice, as did Jesus Christ; | thank God that because He is good and omnipotent, good alone has power. Is not this the triumphant ness experience? again characters of revealed his as a blessed child of God? To understand man's | true spiritual nature, his real relationship with God | one's Godliness—is scientific thanksgiving. 1 Buggies brought prices ranging up to $300 at| a recent auction in Chicago.

General prosperity will | continue and all parts of the country will profit through the expansion of industries. This month will be marked by gener- ous giving as well spending.

NATIONAL ISSUES: Educators will be confronted by many prob- | lems as a dearth of thoroughly | trained teachers adds to -difficul- ' ties in schools and colleges. Tech- | nical training will conflict with academic classes. Warning is given by astrologers that the true culture should not be over- looked. Urgent need of 'trained hands and keen brains should not cause indifference to intellectual riches. In the new order poetry, | philosophy and the arts are to be required more generally than the past.
