The reasod us- igned for making the order is' that in toc many instances a discharge with prejudice is unjust to the em- ployee. In my judgment, the same rule should be extended to non- Civil Service employses. The “dis- charged with prejudice” smacks too the blacklisting practice ied on by pr ars ago.

AIR POWER The advocates of the development of air power who have been dis- ciples of the teachings of the late General William Mitchell were much comforted recently by Genn- eral MacArthur's comment with respect to the use of air power in the Soutbwest Pacific. The exper- ience gained in that area is of the &re highest importance to Alaska and Alaskans by reason of the vast ex- tent of the Territory and the,lack of any means of speedy travel on the ground. The text of General MacArthur’s statement follows: “The destruction of remnants of the enemy forces in the Sanananda Area concludes the Papuan Cam- paign. The Horii Army (Lt. Gen. ‘Tomitaro Horii commanded the es- timated 15000 Japanese troops in Papua) has been annihilated. “The outstanding military lesson of this campaign was the continu- ous calculated application of air power inherent in the potentialities of every component of the air forc- es employed in the most intimate tactical and logical union ith ground troops. “The effect of this modern 1m.tru- mentality was sharply accentuated by the geuglaphlcwl llmfl,atnom of WHEW./ WOW-ME BACK'S BROKEN - | SHOWLDN'T HAVE CARRIED THAT ICE-BOX WITH ALL OF THOSE OTHER THINGS!
