It is entirely possible that Kiska will be su?ect- !éd to an invasion in spite of the fact that the island redsonably well isolated from the Japanese ' mainl and in time might be starved out. The latter program might be feasible, unless some more important campaign were contemplated in the North | Atlantic within the next few months. If such a plan lis in the making, the elimination of Kiska as an observation or defense base probably would be nec- now ossary. | It cannot be hoped that Kiska will fall as easily Ihe defenses there are much more complete, the equipment is much better, and the garrison is many times larger than that which de- |fended Attu.

COX THE FOX The Cox committee investigating the Federal Communications Com- mission, having set one record for violating the American spirit of fair play, now is out to beat its own record. First, its chairman; Representa- tive Eugene Cox of Georgia, having been accused of taking a $2,500 lob- bying fee, is now placed in the unigue position of sitting in judg- ment on his accusers—the FCC. The Georgia congressman at one time had so many relatives on the SUMMARY OF NEW " GAME LAWS FOR ~ ALASKA IS ouT A summary of the new game regulations for Alaska for 1943-44 was released today by Executive Officer Frank Dufresne of the Al- aska Game Commission. As a result of the Alaska Game Law’s recent amendment to permit issuance of resident licenses to members of the armed services and civilian workers who have been stationed in Alaska for one full yvear immediately preceding appli- cation, the hunting population is cxpected to be the greatest in the history of the Territory. The scale of license fees has been increased slightly. A split season on moose, to af- ford protection when the meat is unfit for human consumption, is provided north of the Alaska Range, and on caribou throughout government payroll that the total " % i take of himself and family was ‘D¢ Territory. A thirty day open $56,500. season on mountain sheep is pro- e vided north of the Alaska Range. | Now, his committee has gone one step further and has devised a sys- tem of trying to shut up any re- buttal from the Federal Communi- cations Commission, so that only one side can be heard. Most congressmen—and the ma- jority believe in fair play—are get- ting more and more fed up: with the Cox travesty INDIAN MERRY-GO-ROUND Imprisoned Mahatma Gandhi has asked the Viceroy for permission to communicate with the Mohamme- dan leader in an effort to effect Indian unity, but the Viceroy has refused Raj Gopal Chariar, an- other important Indian leader, has asked the Viceroy for permission to see Gandhi in order to compose Indian differences. Again the Vioe- roy has refused . Suspicion is that the British don’t want Indian! differences composed . The In- dia League, which has considerable influence in the USA., has se- cured the suppert of distinguished Americans in urging that the time for mediation in India is now. Among those who advocate this are: Pearl Buck, Clare Boothe Luce, Herbert Bayard Swope, Henry 1T Harriman, Alf Landon, Dr. Mary E. Woole; . The India League emphasizes the point that to China, the Burma Road is essen- tial. And to open the Burma Road | the fighting spirit of the Indian Army is necessary—fighting for the Four Freedoms. - WARNING TO DRIVERS ‘The time for renewal of Drivers' Licenses has expired and hereafter arrests will be made of drivers who have not secured their licenses.
