Ickes charged that, without his approval, the War Department is spending $130,000,000 on the development which he says, “should be junked.” The committee was told that “under cover of military secrecy” | the Canadian project was undertaken “although the oil resources have ! negligible military value” and would be of no value except to the Cana- | . dian government and its oil interests. As the map shows, the oil-bear- | ing area covers the Mackenzie River basin and oil pools (black spots) are ; located near Fort Norman.

Smith, speaking before the Senate, waved anew the banner of an independent southern Demo- cratic party. The South Carolina Democrat, dean of the Senate by virtue of his 35 year’s service, told a reporter he thinks the south is “ripe” for the formation of a new political party, its own. The threat was voiced earlier this week by Senator J. M. Bailey. Smith said, “The south is sick and tired of being kicked around in the Democratic Party. 1 believe Bailey hit the nail on the head when he said we could form our own Demo- eratic Party and hold the balance of power in the electoral college.” —————— FROM SITKA g Roy 1.

Live in Fear | Speaking of her experiences in the | | Orient, Mrs. Wong said: | | Fear has served to keep the masses in occupied territories from {an open revolt, and their oppressorsi have encouraged opium and gam- bling, ‘hoping to destroy the ad- }vancemenl made in recent years | under the rule of Madame and Gen- | jeral Chiang Kai-Shek. | " “I have wished that all Americans | could witness the atrocities commit- {ted by the Japs during a period of | martial law. Several hundred young {men each time were made examples efore their own people of the iendish torture practiced. Atrocities | “It is impossible for us who come | from America to understand the de- | | light with which they chopped heads |off or burned them alive over char- | coal fires, and other ways that seem indescribable in language. | “Women did not escape. They | | were daily sought out and abused |until invariably they died. “Little children everywhere in the cities and villages begged as long |as they could and then finally found-their places with hundreds of |others who died along the streets. { Their bodies were placed in heaps {upon wagons that took them to the i foothills where they were placed in |shallow holes. | Witnessed Sufferings | “It is too long a story to wnwl about I all, but none of us was |glad to come home. It was not | because we do not love America, buk ;because we would rather have stood by those who have suffered so un- complaininly and do what we could to see that real Christianty was brought to them. |- “About the army — for several {years they have had little or no equipment to cope with the well prepared Japanese.
