The irrelevant rider on a good bill'is one of the worst of parlia- mentary tricks The drys would be within their rights if they let their proposal stand on its own legs as a separ- ate measure. Congress could then decide, on the merits, whether it would be wise and practicable to alcoholic beverages, including wines and beer, on military reservations and in neighboring communities. Secretary Stimson points out that this “would impose upon the Army the duty of enforcing prohibition in metropolitan areas, such |as New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and San Fran- |stop the sale of all |cisco.” No one who lived through the speakeasy era can doubt what would happen. The Lee amend- ment, referred to committee by the Senate, would |not prevent the sale of liquor. It would merely re- quire the sale of bad liquor, by gangsters, without regulation and without payment of taxes The drys should read Secretary Stimson’s state- ment of the work Army chaplains and the recreation- al services are now doing. Our soldiers are mnot drunkards, actually or potentially. They are the same young men they were before they put on uni- form, better educated than any other army in his- to! and as a whole perfectly aware of the serious nature of the work they have to do. They are being taught, as no army has been taught before, that self-control and good physical condition are their best means of staying alive. No profressional dry, and no member of Congress, voting against his own convictions under political presure, can do anything by law to make that teaching stick. He can just repeat the miserable old error of encouraging con- tempt for all law. Once is enough for that mistake the proposal to make it again is scandalous. Produc —.md Attack (Bremerton News Searchlight) United States troops (soldiers, sailors and Marines) are now fighting or stationed in 31 ioreign countries or territories. Small wonder, then, that industry must go full force, for it takes a tremendous amount of war implements to equip these men Rallying to the cause, baby-carriage manufacturers have converted to food carts for field hospitals. Pro- ducers of lipstick cases have converted to bomb tuses, outboard motfors to gun carriages, business machines to shells, hair clippers to projectiles, beer cans to hand grenades, mouse traps to tripod mounts, add- ing machines to automatic pistols, vacuum cleaners to gas mask parts, motor cars to tank and plane engines, radios to flying instruments, typewriters to hell-casings, and common pins probably to almost any other munition that 1 be named! The job of conversion has been accomplished but there ave | still two major jobs to be done, one on the home | front and one on the battlefront. Our fighting men | cannot do their job until we civilians—all of us at| home-—do ours. That job is production, uninter:ups- ed production, the most amazing production job the world has ever known. This war is a race against time. The ships, planes, tanks and guns produced and delivered to our many battlefronts on time can decide our fate. If we hold the Axis hordes on the present fronts, while our strength gathers, it is pos- sible that we can look forward to a not-too-far-d tant victory We face the supreme test. We have adopted the only strategy that can win victory for the Allied Nations. For all we cherish, for ourseives and for those who follow us, in a land we love and revere, we will produce whatever we need and avtack with everything we've got Twenty thousand skippers of Holland's canal boats are carrying out one of the most effective slowdowns in occupied Europe by refusing to hurry, jamming their boats “by accident” locks, ace ldmgz to Dutch sources in London. | Capital Slage Door and breaking | i New York, Holfywood | (Continued from Page One) Still the boys in the umrormsl of any of the services have some- /thing that the lads who stick| istrictly to Hollywood and Broad- |way haven't got.

Ladies of the Elks had béen busy for several days perfecting plans for the open house to be given by them in the club rooms the following evening. With bowling, cdrds, dancing and refreshments, not a dull moment was to be expected. “Alaska the Misunderstood,” was to.be the title of a story on the Territory written by Sherman Rogers to appear in the Outlook in the near future. Herbert S. Ward, Inspector of the Department of Agriculture, and H. 1. Loving, Chief of Accounts for the Forest Service, were to leave on the Princess Mary for the States. They had been in Juneau for ten days on official business. H. S. Graves left on the Forest Ranger V for Petersburg to attend the organization convention of the Southeastern Alaska fox farmers. He took with him proxies from a number of fur farmers in the vicinity of Juneau.

In Hollywood, there are producers, stars, writers and even associate producers to buy them. In New York, there’s Wall Street, Park Avenue and Broadway. But where else would you get an “angel” for the evening like Joseph Davies, who not only plts his spread on the table with the. staggering cover charge, but au- tographs copies of his book, “Mission To Moscow,” for the boys.
