ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. NATIONAL REPRESENTATIVES — Alaska Newspapers, 1011 \merican Bullding, Seattle, Wash. | A D B AFEWC(C ()Ml’ ARISONS The recent statement of Secretary of War Stim- | son that the United States Army, by this time next year, would total 7,500,000 men brought to many who, to this time, had failed to realize the extent to which our armed forces were being built ‘The fact is, if Mr. Stimson's prediction is carried out, we will have almost 6 percent of our total popu- Jation under arms. While this is a tremendous army, as the United States knows armies, it is not large compared with other nations of the world. According to the World Almanac, in 1938 we had but .38 percent population under arms. Italy, in this same, year had a combined army and air force of 7,800,000 men —or 1763 percent of her population! Italy then was at war—but many other nations whose numbered in the millions, still were at peace. Take Germany, on November 1, 1938 She let the world know that her army and air forces at that time numbered 4,125,000—more than 5 per- cem'of her population. And there is a probability that the army was even larger. France had an army of over 6,000,000—more than percent of all the French people. Japan, at that time, amazement of our armies wer 14 admitted an army of 6,- 250,000. Little Yugoslavia had some 1,800,000 men under arms—or one out of every 12 of her people. Rumania boasted 1,800,000—a total of over nine per- cent. In Lithuania, 12 percent of the people were wearing army This, remember, then was at peace. uniforms was in 1938. Most of the world What those armies number now —those of Germany, Italy and Japan—we can only estimate. Certainly they would make the 7,500,000 total toward wiich we aim seem modest indeed.

It is true that wildcat strikes have tively small, both in number and involved But in such critical times we now live, even small barriers in the path of production are of ex- treme importance. The strikes have another braring on the defense situation, however—that of moraie of been compars in men as workers both in and out of the armed services. | Soldiers, sailors, and marines, reading of men | quitting w without authority, due to some fancied —or real—grievance, wonder at a system which al- lows civilian producers to quit because they draw only $1 an hour while the service lads draw $50 a month, risk their lives, and quit, no matter what conditions the fortunes war impose on them. By far the majority of American workmen, real- izing the necessity of the times, stay on the jobs while their demands for additional wages or altered working conditions are being studied. It is unfair to them if the small minority, indulging in unauthor- ized strikes, are not brought immediately to task for their actions. can't of The Wartime Bcnr(l Crop (New York Times) Associated Press photographs from Papua show three Australian soldiers with beards. One might think that these men, who will not be dictated to, had beards because some upstart of an officer told them to shave. But a photograph of an American flier comes down from the Aleutians. He has a beard #00—and a handsome man he is. Beards in the armed services are very much in style. The Greeks wore beards. Alexander the Great did not, but H. G. Wells once condemned him for | it. The Romans wore no beards during their repub- lican days, but they were culturally an imitative rather than a creative people to beards they curled and perfumed them, and Rome was conquered by men with tougher whiskers. Upper- class males went clean-shaven during the greater part of the Dark Ages, but the Renaissance brought back glorious beards. The great Elizabethan sailors were bearded to the ears. The French and American Revolutions took beards away. The Victorian period brought them back. Our own Civil War was fought by men on beards if they were old enough. The evidence is not conclusive periods have been bearded. The sight of these bearded United Nations faces adds to one's confi- dence in victory. The slim youth of yesterday is in every sense a man today. If the beard comes back it will underline a truth we already know. A dog should be treated as one of the Iz says a fancier.

CHAPLAINS NOW | " WANTED BY NAVY | SEATTLE, Nov. 16.— An urgent | |call for chaplains for immediate service with naval forces both .at sea and ashore was issued today by the Office of Nayal Officer | Procurement of the Thirteenth Naval District, Seattle. “The procurement of chaplains | for the Naval Reserve has failed | to meet the needs of the Service | and; as a result, a serious shortage will result unless there is a con- siderable increase in the number of applicants,” said Captain W. J Giles, director of Officer Procure- ment. “The duties of a Navy chaplain are primarily religious. There are additional duties, however, which fall to his lot that are not the privileged responsibility of the ay- erage civilian Pastor or Parish Priest. These additional duties are in connection with activities pro- moted in the Navy for the ad- ~vancement of the mental, moral and physical, as well as the spiri- tual welfare of the personnel.” To be eligible for service as a chaplain, a candidate must be a ‘|fully ordained minister in the church he represents; have com- pleted four years of college or uni- versity work for a bachelor degree logical Seminary for the Bachelor of Divinity degree, or Doctor of Sacred Theology, degree; and be competent physically, mentally and spiritually for leadership among fighting men. For the Naval Reserve applicants must be between the ages of 24 and 50 years, although a -minister with previous naval experience may be somewhat older. The eandidate must be at least five feet six inches tall, and weigh not less than 132| pounds or in proportion to his height. Vision requirements have been relaxed somewhat if any de- ficiency is corrected with glasses. At the present time applicants are especially desired from the fol- | lowing denominations: gregational, -Christian, - Lutheran, Methodist, Presbyterian and United Brethren. Interviews are given at 117 Mar- ion Street, Seattle, and 1233 Ameri-; can Bank Building in Portland. ————————— RETURNS FROM TRIP TO KETCHIKAN GREEN Richard Green, U.S.P.HS.
