Signifi- cant, however, were vegetablé gar- dens planted between the one and iwo-story barracks buildings, show- ing the intemsity of efforts to ob- tain more food. Formalities between the Ameri- cans and the Japanese were stiff, and the veteran fighting men of the Marines condu themselves in a stern, busincss-iike way. There were no handshakes, no salutes by the Marines, who carried the proud designation of the Fourth Regi- ment—virtually annihilated at Ba- taan. Gen. Clement, who escaped from Bataan just before the Japanese took over, showed annoyance at the Nipponese officers’ failure to bring their swords—as requested— to be turned over as a token of surrender.

C..” Judge Wil- liam A. Holzheimer said today on returning from a three months’ trip to the States. He claims he got wetter during a thunderstorm in Washington, while attending a baseball game and then waiting 45 minutes in a crowd for a taxicab to get back to his hotel, than he ever got in all his many years in Alaska. And the “humidity” in that city is no joke, he added. High point of his visit south was a stop with his sister and her son and daughter, in Grand Rapids,| Mich,, whom he had not seen for| 23 years. Visiting in his old home town of Saginaw, Mich.,, for the first time since 1898, he found but | few of hi§ old friends left, although an uncle and several cousins were | | still there and he had a most en- joyable visit with them. Judge Holzheimer covered many of the eastern states during his| trip, and in most cases faund | traveling unpleasant as well as in- | convenient. | Upon arriving in Seaftle on his| way south, he met his grand-| daughter, Mary Gregory, who has | been attending school in that city. She has been interested for some time in joining the Nurses’ Corps, but cannot enter until Pebruary,| so plans to take a four-months’| course this fall at Washington | State College. Happy to be home again, and looking exceptionally well, Judge Holzheimer was ready to go back | to work today. | GIANT JAP SUB TAKEN OVER BY AMERICAN CREW ABOARD AN AMERICAN NAVY TRANSPORT, SAGAMI BAY, Jap- an, Aug. 30.—Americans have taken over the first two submarines sur- rendered by the Japanese—one 1 5,- 500-ton submersible described by Navy officers as the gest in the world.

Holzheimer this morning as-, \NEW ERA AHEAD ' FOR ALASKA IN HEALTH PROGRAM Dr. C. Earl Abrecht Deliv- ers Timely Talk fo Local Territorial Commissioner of Health, Dr. C. Earl Albrecht, was the guest speaker at the weekly meeting of the Chamber of Com- merce held today in the Baranof Hotel. Dr. Albrecht informed the members, “I feel that we are fac- ing a new era in the combating of public health problems in Al- aska, I base that on the fact that askans, as Americans = every- where, are now ready as never be- fore to accept a strong program for better health.” There is a change of attitude on part of Alaskans towards the problem now because they know the facts, he said. Ten years ago, tuberculosis was seldom mentioned because it was believed se. Today, how- ever, statistics prove that the death rate among white people in Al- aska is higher than the total death rate for all people in the United States. Realization of these facts and others has changed their at- titude and opinions and people are willing to talk and learn more about this dise e. “This is true also in regard to e real disease, “Facts on this subject can now be brought out into the open for the public's protection. | “Alaskans want good, safe living for themselves and now want to prepare for those who come to Alaska to live . consequently, we must improve our environmental sanitation,” he concluded. It was reported to the chamber that I5. F. Morris considers the storeroom for fishermen's gear out of the question because only one fisherman was willing to rent the ¥ space, and he wishes to inform the chamber that the building now under construction for that purpose is to be made into a small apart- ment house. Guests at today's meeting were B. H. Stordahl, painting contractor, of Seattle; Geerge Benney, of Pittsburgh; McKay Malcolm, local architect; C. E. Swanson, of Peters- burg; The Rev. Arthur N. Bily, of Sitka; Henrick Valle, general con- tractor, of Seattle; Carl I. Carlson, of Seattle; Lt. Comdr. Theresa M. Crowley, USCGR (W), of Ketchi- kan, and Ensign Leon R.
