MEMBER OF ASSGCIATED PRESS The Associated Press is exclusively entitled to the use for republication of all news dispatches credited to it or not other- wise credited In this paper and also the local news published herein NATIONAL REPRESENTATIVES — Alaska Newspapers, 1411 Fourth Avenue Bldg., Seattle, Wash. every day, and that a complete tabulation would require nearly a year. 3 It appears the administration agencies are in busi- ness to perpetuate themselves, and are using paper stocks that probably would serve a much more useful and practical purpose if diverted into regular channels But they continue to use up paper, with no reduction in usage that any one can discover, even as legiti- mate publications are told of bigger quota cuts to come. Every time a government agency decides to start a new publication, it does just that, but for a private citizen to establish a new publication would involve mountains of red tape and technicalities. Publication of periodicals the ways in which the adminis ing paper, for nearly eve one of the bureaus also has its own publicity department which sends tons of useless material through the mails and seldom finds readers This illustrates just once more how public money is being wasted and how we live under two sets of regulations—one applying to the average citizen and business and the other to the political drones who beat the ride the bandwagon and produce nothing constitutes only one of tive bureaus are wast- drum * Record A WASTE PAPER Although there has been a somewhat noticeable | reduction in the amount of waste paper sent out by government agencies it still is apparent that there is waste, and that further reduction should be attempted, because there still is a vital shortage of paper. True, paper is a vital war product. Tremendous quantities are used in making cartons and boxes which hold every conceivable type of war material. Tons of pulp also are used to make smokeless powder, the wood product being utilized in place of cotton | under improvements developed recently by our scientists. But publicity-minded Uncle Sam is taking more than his share, too, and is today a publisher of tre- mendous scope. The government, in fact, today prints | thore newspapers, magazines and other periodicals | than all private publishers of any one single state | combined, a recent compilation shows. | A survey shows that federal employees now edit | four dailies, eight weeklies, eight bi-weeklies, 115 monthlies and 15 quarterlies. And they range all the way in size from typical weekly newspapers to full- fledged, large size slick paper magazines. ‘The reporter who made the compilation feels cer- tain he listed only part of the government publica- tions, for he pointed out that there are now 2,241 (New York Times) The American people can take pride in the ac- complishments of the Army Air Forces, as revealed by the report of the Office of War Information cov- ering the period from Pearl Harbor to September of this year. The destruction of 7,312 enemy planes against the loss of 1867 shows a ratio in our favor of about four to one. Obviously, box scores of this kind, without breakdown into categories of planes, do not tell the whole story. It is not an even trade if we lose one big bomber at fighters. But reports from the battlefronts, which | go beyond OWI's statement, indicate that even in raids in which we are in the vulnerable position of the | attacker, far from base, the ratio is running ap-| proximately three or four to one fighters destroyed | for each of our own big bombers lost. From a military point of view this would be a satisfactory ratio even | if the enemy wwere able to maintain his previous | rate of fighter replacement, which he is not. But| there are objectives which e worth a much less favorable exchange than this, considering the amount of damage inflicted on enemy installations. The OWTI statement does not include Navy figures or the figures of such s tional successes as that announced by General MacArthur recently, in which 104 Japanese planes certainly were destroyed, with forty-three more “probables,” against the loss of two American planes, in the Southwest Pacific. The rate of superiority, m fact, quite clearly has been going up in all theatres. This can be attributed in part to u‘e excellent training which has developed our present huge pilot forces from a mere handful of trained men and partly to the splendid qualitative char- | acteristios of the combat planes themsleves. Box scores may not be all revealing; but when the odds are consistently such as those shown by the OWI report and by the equally satisfactory achievements | of the Naval Air Force over an extended period, they | form a solid foundation for the conviction that American planes are adequate to the job which they | government agencies, with new ones created almost DOUGLAS ’ and R Frid: erves January Tuesday, Juneau. at Douglas; and Reserves at Juneau; February were built to do. 1—Sparks at | a cost of two enemy |® | | chinery Inith_tipn Work | THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—.

H A definite plan for the separation of road building and the Alaska Railroad organization was determined upon in the conference the previous week between Col. James G. Steese and Maj. John C. Gotwals, and was at this time being put into effect. Work which had been progressing all summer on the property of the Douglas Mining Company at Douglas, was showing excellent yesults, ac- cording to L. W. Kilburn, Secretary and Manager of the company. The ore had been improved as the tunnel had progressed into the lode, late assays running as high as $3.60 a ton and showing an average of $1.90. Numerous robberies among the hunting lodges and cabins in the vicinity of Mendenhall Bar were being reported by their owners, in which considerable losses of property and supplies were said to have occurred. Oscar Hart, representing Neustadter Brothers, was to arrive on the | steamer Admiral Watson from Cordova. Walter Gaffney, salesman of “Ball Brand” rubbers, passed through here in January.
