At home we must continue to back the attack with war bonds. Our armies on the fighting front are now carring the battle to our enemies on a wider scale than ever before. Similarly, here at home, it is up to every one of us to buy more bonds than we have purchased before. If we went our men to go over the top, push the bond over the top.

Aleutian-Alaskan bases, may be _probed by the Truman Committee ,on its current jaunt to the Arctic ,areas. The letters told of delays and time-wasting by a construction company; and although the letters were scrutinized by the censor pre- (sumably for the purpose of rectify- ,ing government mistakes, it took a long time to do anything about it. 4 For instance, one worker, helping ito build a base in Alaska, wrote to his wife in Los Angeles: “The job seems all right, tho Ql)le_v do NOT want workers—only ‘time wasters. I thot I had seen a slot of waste, but nothing L'Ompm'ed‘ point of view, this job up to the present time has not been very sav- ory, and while I am sure that most of the conditions have arisen through misunderstanding and per- sonalities, yet there have been con- ditions existent on this job that would not bear the light of inves- tigation. The waste of man hours and material is appalling. I be- lieve it can be largely overcome by new Blood and proper organiza- tion.” This was when the Japs were still in the outeér fringes of the Aleu- tian Islands and when bases were vitally needed in Alaska. The situation finally has been rectified, but it took a long time. Working conditions were such as could be noted by any half blind Army or Navy inspector without opening private letters.
