THE CAPITOL HAS ALASKA WAR COUNCIL ENDS SHORT MEETING At a two-day meeting ending ! Wednesday, the Alaska War Council discussed the bill recently passed by the Legislature at the request of Gov. Ernest Gruening, Council Chairman, making it a misdemeanor to export from Alaska articles ra- tioned in the United States. To make sure that the public is fully informed concerning the law, the Council voted to send the text of the law to all newspapers, mayors and law enforcement officer: Various confidential matters which cannot be disclosed at present were also discussed. The Council also endorsed and voted to ask early | passage of H. R. 1366 providing for | a salary differential for Post Office employees in Alaska, pointing out that this move was “indispensable as a belated act of justice and es- sential to efficient handling of mail.” A wire to this effect was sent to Delegate Anthony J. Dimond and the Postmaster General. Furth- er action in the effort to improve mail service between Alaska and the States was also taken. Members present ‘at the meetings were Gov. Gruening, Ralph Vogel, M. D. Williams, E. L. Bartlett and Hugh J. Wade. Those who did not attend were Lieut. Col. H. A. Mur- phy, Commander J. S. MacKinnon, Howard D. /Thompson and B. F. Heintzleman, none of whom were in the city. » 1917—April 30..... 1918—May 11 1919—May ©1920—May 11 1921—May 11. 1922—May 12....... 1923—May 9 . 1924—May 11 1925—May 7. 1927—May 13... 1928—May 6 1929—May 5. 1926—April 26.............

GOP (laims FDR fo Run For 4thTerm Republican Leaders Con- tend Roosevelt Has Chosen Leaders WASHINGTON, April 2. — The contention that the President has already selected New Deal leaders for a fourth term nomination and that their campaign is now under way, is the Republican answer to Democratic National Committee Chairman Frank C. Walker's sug- gestion that there be a short 1944 campaign. Hs n Spangler GOP National Committee Chairman, said: “It is a matter of regret that New Deal leaders waited to make the proposal for late political conventions until after their candidate was already selected. Congressional Republicans echoed his implication that Walker is seek- ing the advantage of his party. - J DIVORCES GRANTED Divorces have been granted in the United States Federal Court | by Judge George JF.
