At the same tinie, investment in war bonds lessens the danger of inflation. There has been much talk about the tremendous | volume of ‘deferred buying” that is accumulating. What this means is that many are saving today for spending when peace comes—when civilian goods will again be plentiful The purchase of war bonds will build up a tre- mendous reservoir of reserve buying power that can sustain and stimulate business after the war. Every person in Juneau and Douglas, in the period from September 1 to 15 should plan on buying as many bonds as possible, stepping out beyond the regular purchases of bonds. Numerous fraternal, social and patriotic organiza- tions have pledged their support to the drive and will manage two booths which will be placed conveniently throughout the city to be open each evening during the campaign. Crisis in the Balkans (Philadelphia Record) Fall of Mussolini and the steady advance of Russla’s siimmer offensive are stirring a ferment in A concerted | THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE— JUNEAU ALASKA ‘ paganda purposes now. The fall of Mussolini has left a vacuum in- th Balkans. Abdication of the Duke of Aosta, | puppet king of the Fascist State of Croatia, from th | throne of a country he never visited was a symbol o the waning Italian influence. | Hitler's satellites in the Balkans—Hungary, Bul garia, Rumania—léoked more to Fascist Italy for thei pattern than to Nazi Germany. Mussolini, starting 11 years before Hitler, set the pace. But there is more than a political vacuum. Reports persist that Italy is withdrawing as many as possible of the 300,000 soldiers used &s garrison | troops in the Balkans. Their place is being taken ly, by such troops as Germany and by Bulgarians. The crisis is increased by the continued success of Russia. The three satellites have ever kept a close watch Bulgaria, which still maintains diplomatic NATIONAL REPRESENTATIVES — Alaska Newspapers, 1411 | relations with Russia although at war with the United Ru- | mania, which lost 1,000,000 troops dead, wounded and | on Russia | States and Britain, watches with friendliness. missing in Russia, and also Hungary watch with fear.

We have a chance to exploit differences among the satellites, and encourage underground resistance |Girls will discover that romance among the conquetred countries. We must be as smart as Hitler was when he prepared the way for invasion of the Balkans by taking advantage of old rivalries The beginning of the end of the last World War came in the Balkans with the surrender of Bulgaria | late in September, 1918. We can hope that Mussolini's | fall is convincing the Balkan leaders that the end of this war may come there, too. Meat (Cincinnati Enquirer) The most striking feature of the new “meat ex- tender” evolved by chemists of the Anheuser-Busch Company is that, apparently, science is improving upon nature, The process “grows” protein in half a day, whereas Mother Nature takes months to produce |it in the form of a calf. Moreover, there is much less waste in the process. In the factory there is no pro- tein spent in the relatively useless production of hooves | and bone. | With becoming modesty, a spokesman for the | famous St. Louis brewery says that his concern is not producing a “synthetic beefsteak”—that, to quote him, “only God can make a steer But the fact of the matter is that the chemical process does yield quick protein in quantity. High protein yeast is placed in a huge vat of water. Molasses is added to feed the yeast, and ammonia to convert the yeast to protein. After 12 hours the residue is a dried, nonfermertable powder containing 50 per cent protein. It is flavored, combined with protein cereal, and is ready for use as a “meat extender” with regular servings of meat. Waste in the process is negligible. The new product already is finding extensive use | in supplying armies overseas, but not yet is available !on the commercial market—although we fancy-that it would encounter a ready sale because of meat ra- tioning. However, it has many possibilities. In the postwar world, if no sooner, it may contribute eco- nomically to an improvement in the American diet. | wusanno|| HAPPY BIRTHDAY itself can there are Cabinet shakeups in Bul- garia and Rumania and talks of peace feelers from all e e 4 AUGUST 25 ¥ g Nick Bez r Edmond S.
