NATIONAL REPRESENTATIVES — Alasks Newspapers, 1411 Fourth Avenue Bldg., Seittle, Wash. THE BLANK SPOT The blank spot in our relations with Russia is being brought out into the open in Congress. Senators returning from a trip to the various fight- ing fronts claim that a million American lives would be saved if Russia would allow us the use of bases in Siberia from which we could attack Japan, and, the war in the Pacific would be shortened. This is something that probably has been puzzling ' a good many Americans, and Alaskans, too, who see{ war material going through Alaska to Russia and at the same time read reports of how Russia interns our and for that reason would not fight against Germany. But that is what Russia is doing. Russia holds that she has not been attacked by Japan, therefore, why help in waging war against Japan? Or so would seem the case. i There is no place in the closely connected world of today for any half-neutral in the present world- wide conflict. This fact is recognized by ‘the United " | States and by Britain—but not by Russia. The Soviet, on the other hand, does not believe we are giving her enough aid. The pegple of the United States believe that Hitler is as great a threat to the United States as Japan and the strategy of the United States in the war shows this. But we also expect this same un- selfish attitude from the other countries of the United Nations. We do not ask that Russia throw men and arms into the fight against Japan at this time, but do need the use of bases in Siberia which we could man very easily. Let us hope that a solution can be worked out soon. The discussion of this blank spot in our rela- tions with Russia was the first step. Anthropology to the Rescue (New York Times) That this is a scentists’ war we have been told oyer and over again. Mathematicians, chemists, physicists, metallurgists, astronomers, biologists—all are playing their part in solving problems with which Napoleon, Grant, von Moltke never had to concern themselves. When General Montgomery drove the Germans out. of Libya he found the advice of an obscure British | authority on sand dunes of inestimable value. And now we learn from Raymond Stevens and Earl P. Stevenson that the anthropologist has been drafted to solve, of all problems, one presented by parachute ! troops. As Stevens and Stevenson told the story before | the American Chemical Society, the designers of | troop-carrying gliders wers stumped by man's poster- jor. Anybody who has sat for hours on a wooden bench of a European third-class railway carriage knows that there is nothing for it but to stretch and squirm to relieve aching bones. In a railway carriage or on a park bench this is not of world-shaking importance. In the air it is. If a paratrooper is uncomfortable, he plane crews when they land on the Kamchatka Pen- insula after bombing missions to Japan. ‘ Indeed, Russia cannot make a convincing nppeali for a second front in Europe, and at the same time | present this blank non-recognition of our pressing need for a second front in Siberia. Russia would definitely have something to is not at his best when he springs into action after HAPPY BIRTHDAY OCTOBER 11 Charles W. j r Rosemary Doogan Fai Natterstad Lawrence Carlson Alexander JMiller Thomas Dull A.

HEART AND HOME: Letters bearing heartening reports should brighten this week which may be imporatnt in United Na- tions’ achievements. Under this configuration planning for postwar reeds In every home there ‘sHould be a feeling of responsibility in assuring buman betterment. The world that is to emerge from the wicked waste of war is to be marked by a new concept of civilization, astrologers announce. BUSINESS AFFAIRS: In the financial districts of American cit- iss Autumn will be noteworthy for <erious contemplation of inevitable tusiness problems. The fact that |bigh wages through the duration of | the war has lifted the standard of living among workers, will demand consideration in preparing for thor- ough reconstruction, and astrologers a long, fatiguing flight.
