Planes, Ships - Afom Bomb Top Priority NUERNBERG, June 3.—Although Soviet Russia has released more than 10,000,000 men from military service in the past 10 months she still has approximately 6,000,000 under arms at the present time, ac- cording to the best information available to Allied military author- dties.

Russian factories, this authority said, now are producing the big- gest tank in the world — the Su- fped-Stalin, mounting a 131-mili- meter gun. They are also produc- ing jet-propelled planes and a Sov- jet version of the jeep. The highest priority in Russia at the moment, however, he said, is-be- ing given not to armament produc-| tion, but to atomic development.

E ROTARY CLUB PICNIC WAS GREAT SUCCESS Approximately 75 percent of the Juneau Rotary Club membership at- | tended the 1946 Rotary Picnic yes-| wferday at Eagle River Boy Scout| camp. Together with their wivas; and children, the Rotarians spent| most of the entire day “eating and| picnicking around” accdrding to | one member. | With the weather at a peak in| sunshine and summertime tempera- ! ture, the children in the group took | merrily to the water and turned the | plenic into a swim session. The | “plder picnickers” played the Boy Scouts in baseball—and were de-; feated. | The group returned to town late | in the evening with reports that| Arom a strictly gastronomic and recreational standpoint, the picnic was a high success. If a few Ro- tarians were seen limping stiffly| about their offices today, the fact| was chalked off to summertime fun, | and nobody, not even the limpers,| minded too much. | ——————— LOUISE KANE HERE | Louise Kane of Hoonah is a guest at the Baranof.
