Obviously the government cannot tell all that is |known to its intelligence services. Military security requires the withholding of a great deal of informa- tion. The people know this. But the principle of | military security is not an arbitrary one. There are | times when it is better to reveal information to the jenemy, if that is necessary in order to hold the con- fidence of people here at home. Even in a dictatorship, a government is obliged secrecy at times in order to tell its own people the facts that they need in order to under- stand reverses in the field. In a democ where the war effort depends on popular enthusiasm, it is far more essential to maintain a policy of frankness This, even though occasional revelations may be of some possible utility to the enemy. Until a genuine candor stamps the information policy of the govern- |ment, we are running the risk of a serious deteriora- tion of public confidence J‘lpans l\eed for Alaska to sacrifice wcy, (Cincinnati Enquirer An important item of diet in virtually every Japanese is—and has been—fish. To get this food, Japanese have maintained extensive fisheries, particularly in the North Pacific For many rs their floating cannerie have been familiar to all American fishing fleets The annual fish catches in Japanese never have begun to fill the Nipponese needs. the homes of from the United States, and they have caught mil- lions of tons of food fish in waters controlled by | us, in accord ‘with an international agreement One thing which Japan wants out of is a larger, more productive fishery her eyes look longingly in the direction of Alaska,i for here are some of the richest fish producing waters in the world. In an average year the United States’ northern possession will yield approximately 500,000, 000" pounds of salmon: 200,000,000 pounds of l\vn\l Her catch of cod, trout, sablefish, rockfish, halibut, clams, flounders, and oysters will total millions of pounds | more.

They can see how, under their control, Alaska would offer twice the amount iof food it produces today and will give shelter to more than a million Japanese nationals. It is not a subject for wonder, then, that the Japanese plan for conquest has included among its | next objective the shores of Alaska. How soon the thrust will come is a problem.

One of the letters has been re- ceived from A. J. Isbell, Captain U. S. Navy, Commander of the Sitka Naval substation, and the other is from C. S. Freeman, Vice- Admiral United States Navy, Com- mandant, 13th Naval District. Mr. Smith is wellknown on the channel ‘as wéli as in other parts of Southeast Alaska. There is not an inlet nor bay adjutting from the waters of this section of the northland that he does not know thoroughly.
