THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU ALASKA Stern Policy [Bombed Out Berliners in Flight Now| WarMeasure Capifal S(ene of Terror, Destruction-Wound- Insane Are Killed BERN, Nov. 26. — Thousands of bombed-out Berliners with their scanty possessions strapped to their backs, are defying Nazi threats of punishment and continue in a mass exodus from the chaotic and still burning German capital city. All reports are the same, a picture of terror and destruction. In many instances, Berlin firemen were compelled to resort to dyn- amite in an attempt to check the spreading flames. Thousands are said .to be still trapped beneath debris with little chance of their being dug out alive. One refugee who left Berlin after Mcnday night's raid said the Ges- tapo arrested 3,000, including 2,000 women and children, insane from shock. He declared the hopelessly wounded and insane were killed. ————————— FROM TACOMA Francis A.

Surely the Board knows what democ- racy is. It is the line that forms on the nght. It is the don’t in don’t shove. It is the hole in the stuffed shirt through which the sawdust slowly trickles; it |sf the dent in the high hat.# Democracy is the recurrent suspicion that more than half of the people are right more than half of the time. It is the feeling of privacy in the voting booths, the feeling of communion in the libraries, the feel- m" of vitality everywhere. Democracy js a letter to the-editor. Democracy-is . 'the score at'the begmmng of the njnth. It is an idea which hasn’t been disproved yet, asong the words of which have; not ‘gone bad. It’s the mustard on the hot dog and the cream in the rationed cof- fee. Democraty is a request from a War 'Board, in the middle of 2 morning in 5 ! the middle of 2 war, wanting to know i what democracy is. 3 Reprinted from THE NEW YORKER : { July 3, 1943 | X : g4l ’;,\EA 5 I ’3 gfly Mote Wir ALASKA STEAMSHIP COMPANY oy iw 1
