The Nazis can promise Berlin's war workers and civilian public no surcease from attack during the long months of winter dark- ness, when great fleet§ of bombers can mdke the long trip from the British Isles to Berlin and return without undue exposure to fighter attack. The effect of sustained bombardment of such terrible proportions upon the Nazi war industries and public morale in Berlin is incalculable-~but doubtless will be very great The Allies are using upon German cities the formula first developed by the once mighty Luft- waffe. The German air force did not succeed in knocking Britain out of the war by its systematic pulverization of English cities—but the German war lords never realized how close they came to that .

The Luftwaffe, in its mightiest days, never used formations approaching 1,000 heavy bombers in size, nor did it seem to have the capacity to maintain raids of several hundred bombers. The difference may yield dramatic consequences.

Large parties of tourists in the East had at this time !nlx'eudy been booked for Alaska. One party included 180 and several other parties numbered 100 each. Articles of incorporation of the Chichagof Development Company, new owners of the famous Chichagof gold mine, were filed in the office of the Territorial Secretary together with the appointment of H. L. Faulkner as resident agent for the company. After a week's trip through the Lynn Canal district almost as far as Skagway, District Forester C. H. Flory and other Forest Service officiéils returned here. The trip was made on the local Ranger boat. Dan Russell, local high school boy, was hobbling about on crutches this day as the result of breaking his ankle in a bad fall while going down the steps on Franklin Street near the Bishop Apartments. Nine members of the Juneau High School hiked to Perseverance received a wetting. The hike was staged by the “Shirt Brigade” and members of the party included Mr. Rierson, Dora Lundstrom, Florence Bathe, Dorothy and Grace Kleinschmidt, Grace Neilson, Leonard Holm- quist, Dan Russell (just before he broke his leg), Albert White and four messial dogs.
