NATIONAL REPRESENTATIVES — Alaska Newspapers, 1411 Fourth Avenue Bidg., Seattle, Wash. Many of our young men shock mountains of lta“vo—wm not be eating turkey tomor- row, and neither will many on other battlefronts. | I'lcssure on (.er.lm (New Y‘crk Times) Though German morale ori the military front appears to be still high, all reports from inside Ger- many agree that the German people are war-weary and disillusioned. They know that the war is lost. They that the millions of dead, including 4,000,000 of their own, with which Hitler promised to fertilize conquered land for their plows have been sacrificed in vain. They know this from the ap- proaching thunder of the Russian guns along the Dnieper; they are told so by the roar of Allied cannon on the Italian front; and they feel it in their own bodies, as they did not feel it in 1918, because of the Allied bombings of their cities. There is one important difference, however, be- tween 1918 and 1943. As compared with the regime of terror established by Himmler, not only in the conquered eas but also in Germany itself, the Kaiser’s regime even in wartime was one of liberty and free speech, The German people still had party organizations through which they could express them- selves—and act. They also had Wilson's Fourteen Points to fall back upon to cushion defeat and to provide hope for the future. Today even a jocular remark which some Gestapo agent can interpret as Hefeatism makes heads roll, and instead of any, four- teen-pointed cushion there is only the desperate pros- pect of vengeance by the nations they have tortured.

When flsggmg energies when it is withuot hope? other Allies suffered their reverses at the beginning of the war, they knew that if they could only hold out long enough to mobilize their own resources and those of their friends they would not only save themselves | but also crush the enemy. Hope enabled them to take bad news without breaking. The Germans are con- have shot are shrinking. So long as the morale of the German Army lasts, there will be hard fighting.

Faulkner, from 20 YEARS AGO TH% empirE D e e NOVEMBER 24, 1923 The first gun of the Legion’s Americanization campaign for Juneau was to be fired at the Palace Theatre in a few days when Captain Dancey was to introduce “The Man Without a Country.” The picture was said to be one of the greatest ever to come to Juneau. Coe The opening move in the fight to overthrow the Territorial closed season law on salmon fishing was made when R. E. Robertson and who represented a number of canners indicted for alleged violations of the law, appeared before the judge of the U. S. District Court in arguments supporting their motions designed to nullify the indictments. The effort of the Juneau Chamber of Commerce to have the Coast Guard cutter Unalga returned here at once or some vessel to take the place of the Unalga sent here pending her return was not successful, according to a statement made by Allen Shattuck, President of the Chamber. The authorities at Washington wired the local Chamber that the Unalga was to be detained at Puget Sound another month for repairs and that no other vessel was available for these waters. Jacob Britt, local high school graduate, was ranked among the lead- ing contenders on the Freshmen crew at thé University of Washington, according to word received here. Young Britt was said to be popular among his classmates and had been pledged to the Delta Kappa Epsilon, being known by his fraternity brothers as “Yukon Jake.” Juneau had a new beauty shop and announcement was made of the opening of the new establishment. Mrs. Violet Terrell was the pro- brietress of the new place. Mrs. Terrell's shop was temporarily located in the Cliff Apartments. S Weather report: High, 34; low, 32: cloudy.
