ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. NATIONAL REPRESENTATIVES — Alaska Newspapers, 1411 Fourth Avenue Bldg., Seattle, Wash, RULES FOR OCCUPATION Emil Ludwig, German-born American knows the German people. In the light of this he has suggested 14 rules for the American occupation officer in Germany. The question is—can an American act that way? When the peace is written we'll find out. ‘The rules follow: 1. You are entering Germany, not as a liberator but as a victor. You are supposed to govern the country, and you will not be regarded as a master unless you are strict and aloof. 2. Never give way. Anything that is granted as a favor will be regarded by the Germans as his right, and he will subsequently demand twice as much. He thinks fair play is cowardice 3. Always speak English when dealing officially with the Germans. They understand English, or they will find friends who do. As soon as you speak German, you will not be regarded as a victor. 4. Do not keep smiling. Never offer a cigarette to a visitor whom you do not know well. Never offer him your hand. The Germans will respect you as long as they see in you a strong master. 5. Always wear a uniform, never civilian clothes. A uniform is the symbol of authority to the Germans, who, for three hundred years, have been governed by soldiers. In hotels, restaurants and theatres, always insist on having the best rooms and seats. Pay the full price and spend as much money as you can. Al- ways give high tips. 6. Be polite to German women, but never be cor- dial, as you are in your own country. Do not flirt with them. They would think it their duty to betray you to their countrymen. 7. Give visible preference to any German who has been in a concentration camp or who in any way opposed the Nazis and suffered under them. To him you may offer a cigarette, especially in the presence of any German of the other kind—a former Nazi or a German who has not been in a concentration camp. This will make an impression and will be talked about. 8. In public, give preference to workmen. You President Vice-Prestdent |}, ¢ Editor and Manager | 105 0 be here Managing Editor Business Manager r if they will promptly notify lure or irregularity in the de- writer, | isux'prlsed by and grateful for any sign of friend- liness. 9. If you are in need of something—a train, |car, or a new lamp—and you are told there is none to be had, answer, with appropriate look: “It t six o'clock.” It will be there, and |you will have gained in authority 10. Make everyone entering your service give you an account of his former doings under the Nazis, also an account of what he did and thought under the |Republic. Many Germans who claim to be anti- |Nazi today were revengists under the Republic and enthusiastically helped in the secret rearmament. Even most of the Socialists were super-nationalistic. {Only those who can prove their European and ‘nter- national leanings during the Republic can be counted lon to cooperate with the Occupation Army 11. Be on your guard against professors who lquote English lierature and history. A German pro- |fessor is bound to be more arrogant than learned. The fact that he has taught race theories for ten years is not as criminal as his revenge sermons at | [ the time of the Republic. | 12. It will be of use to you to get acquainted with |a dozen tolerant maxims and quotations from Goethe |and Schiller. Take time to learn these by heart | Then, you will be able now and then to make use of them in your English conversation. This will be very effective, and more impressive than quoting ideas {from your American classics. 13. Forget the American habit of meeting every- one in an open way. Distrust everybody who has given you no proof of his honesty. Then, after some time, | {the Germans will realize that, under your govern- imen(, personality and character count higher than military grades. | 14. Never forget that you are in an enemy country—even when all the secret arms and bombs have been destroyed. Hate and the will for revenge {will live on in the hearts of German adults after this | war as after the last one. The only way to get along |with the Germans is to make them respect you—to make them feel the hand of the master. | Japanese Insanity ! (New York Times) An American can only view with incredulity ithe {state of mind which twice has led Japanese prisoners to attempt mass escapes in impossible situations. On February 25, 1943, several hundred in a New Zealand prison camp attempted a mass break. Forty-eight | |were killed and sixty-three wounded. Now Australia !reports that several hundred more in a camp there lswrmed the wire. * Two hundred and thirty-one were j killed or committed suicide when they saw the attempt |was a failure, and 108 more were wounded. In each | linstance the Japanese faced only eventual recapture, {even though a temporary break-through of the barriers | was won. There are two possible explanations for these Isenseless actions. One is that the prisoners, ashamed of their state, sought only death, They may have rea- soned that they would gain immortality under the barbaric code, even after the stigma of a previous surrender, if they fell before the guns of their guards | A second explanation, and one which will appeal more to those who have seen Japanese captives and heard | from interpregers of their appalling lack of informa- ition as to the true state of the war, is that they thought they had a fair chance of escaping back tol » an few miles away from their stockades. Many Japanese | | captives, for instance, have astounded imerpreters! | with their belief that San Francisco and other of our | grear West Ccast cities were in Japanese hands, that | everywhere except in the engagement where they were | captured the forces of Nippon were winning. | For months, of course, part of their belief was | based on fact. It has not been so now for more than | {a year. The prisoners who died in New Zealand and |in Australia in foolhardy attémpts to escape may well I be victims of their leaders’ stupidity, men to- whom | the truth had not been told. They may have been |lured to their death by a propaganda based on half | truths and whole falsehoods. may even talk German with them. They will be OSWEGO, N.

The Navy is under a threatening aspect HEART AND HOME: The clergy will benefit greatly in coming months. Interest in religion will be stimulated by testimonies of servicemen who have tested the efficacy of prayer. BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Interna- | tional banking will be managed in a manner fortunate for American business. Transition of factory out- put from war products to civilian needs will prove less perilous than has been feared. The Autumn will continue prosperous. NATIONAL ISSUES: Astrologers long have warned of the explosive influences of certain planetary. as- pects to which are attributed in- crease of accidents. Sabotage will be prevalent in coming months. INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS As victories for United Nations multiply, their cost will be appal- ing. Casualty lists will spréad sorrow over the country but the nation will accept the inevitable with fortitude. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of varied | fortunes and unusual experiences. Health should be watched for nerves may show strain.

Again labor is under a sign of decisive action which presages much pub- licity. HEART AND HOME: Women of all ages should study not only public issues but geography and history, to enable them to listen intelligently to the conversations of returning soldiers. War is to prove a source of broad education as well as a supreme test of char- acter for our fighting men. BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Patriotism should be manifested by sticking to war jobs.. The labor turnover this Autumn may be serious in ultimate effects. The early applicant for a civilian position will not necessarily. gain in the long run, the seers de- Clare. 3 NATIONAL ISSUES: American optimism should be curbed, despite the prospects of an early end of the war in Europe. Although the stars presage amazing surprises, miracles for our forces, there will be delays and frustrations. INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: The full moon of this date seems to presage for the British govern- ment opposition in regard to in- | ternational affairs. Changes in the cabinet are indicated. Postwar planning will progress satisfag- torily. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year that is mainly fortunate but domestic frie- tion may cause impatience. Children born on this day prob- ably will be positive in character and resentful of discipline. Special talents may be developed wi? great success. .
