| EAGLE, Alaska, July 20, 1037—adoigh Biederman is the sort of man we in the States think of when we think of Alaska. He's a small map, brown as leather, and wiry, ‘ and he walks with a thump-thump. He speaks with an accent, and with that jumpy, hard-to-follow narration of events you frequently find in transplanted foreigners. Ed Biederman is the winter mail man between Circle and Eagle. For 35 years he has driven the dog team mail routes of bitter central Alaska. Hes one of the mushers you read about in the poems. He's 68 and tough as nails. He was born in Bohemia, and came to this country when he was 13. He wound up in Alaska at the turn of the century, and has never been out since. . And never intends to go. go married an Indian woman, and has seven or eight children. Some are grown, and others are © tiny kids. .

42 Below—and Wet Feet!

THE THINGS ED has been through would fill a book. He walks with that thump-thump because the front half of each foot is gone. It happened 12 years ago because he lost his regular dogs, Ed’s dogs were coming up river on a barge which a rock upset. All the dogs drowned. So Ed had to borrow a team and start the winter mail run with green dogs. His sled got stuck in

| THE SWARMS of fishermen frequenting White river where Lake Sullivan empties into the river . are causing quite a bit of annoyance to park officials, and particularly to Andy Miller who has charge of the Riverside nursery. The reason that’s such a good spot is that it’s connected directly with Lake Sullivan, which is -stocked. The fish swim out from the lake into the river, and then back again--if they aren’t caught first. Most of the 25 to 100 fishermen who visit the spot daily are good sportsmen, Andy says, put a few cause trouble. For instance, they keep tearing | down “No Fishing” signs and heaving: them in the river. They | drive on the lawn. They build fires on the concrete walls. They tear out sections of the rip rap wall to make seats. Some climb over the bank and fish in the lake. Others wander along the banks and accidentally or otherwise destroy duck nests. And to add to Andy's annoyance, some of the neighbors are sore about all the hullaballoo and saying the city won’t do anything aboyt it because this is an election year. Yes, ‘Andy has'his troubles.

Conventions Going Good

HEINY DAVIS tells us the war hasn't hurt convention - attendance. a bit, thus far. In fact, during the first three months of this year conventions held here drew an average attendance 12 per cent better than these same conventions drew last year. About the only conventions called off, he said, have been those that were tied in with the Speedway race and a few ordinarily held at the fairground. . . . Remember little Jerry Moore, 4, who had his mother mail three of his rubber toys to Washington after he heard about the rubber shortage? Well, he finally got a letter thanking him for his contribution. It was sighed by Burton E. Palmer (for Carrington Gill)

Washingt WASHINGTON, April 27.—In a speech to newspaper publishers a few days ago Archibald MacLeish, chief of the office of facts and figures, warned this country against being tricked by a Hitler peace offenstve in the near: future. Perhaps Mr. MacLeish has some information that causes him to fear the effect of such a peace offensive in this country, but I . doubt it. Is there a single political leader in the country who would now advocate peace with the axis? Is there a single responsible’ publicatior: that would advocate peace on Hitler's terms in its editorials? Would William Green of the A. PF. of L. or Philip Murray of the C. I. O. pick up such @ peace offer and try to see it? 3 don’t believe Hitler would get anything except a chorus ‘of raspberries from America now. In fact I am so certain of it that I think the most fortunate thing that could happen would be an attempt by Hitler. tp get peace. It would be taken by everyone as a sign of weakness, not of strength, and would give new confidence to the united nations. I hope he tries it. The result would be to provoke a real demonstration of the will to victory on. our side, : Si : Morale Low in Germany IN FACT THERE is every reason why Hitler : should want peace now. He has reached, if not passed the crest of his tide. Information which I get is that morale is low in Germany, growing out of war weariness, the long deferred victory over

My Day

WASHINGTON, Sunday.—TI came back to Washington by plane this afternoon in order to attend the party given by the Washington newspaper guild for the purpose of raising money to send delegates to the BAtional newspaper guild convention, and for the \ benefit of army and navy relief. They are to show the movie, “The Invaders.” Washington is at its most beautiful gt this time. All the flowering shrubs are out and the spring flowers are everywhere. One cannot help but be impressed by the beauty of this capital of a great country. 4 In some ways it reminds me very much of Paris, and yet it has its own personality as all cities have. If the war .comes close to Washington, it may destroy some of the things which have been so carefully built up through the past few years.. I think the effect on many of us will be to augment our determination to see that such wasteful destruction of things of beauty, as has gone on all over the world, never occurs again in history. _, I have just received a letter telling me that the Nations association is

winter. :

His Boys Now Run the Mail

IT IS 162 MILES from Eagle to Circle. The winter mail makes the round trip every two weeks. Ed has cabins strung along the route, 25 to 28 miles apart. Sometimes he makes it from one cabin to another in four hours. Sometimes it takes as long as 18 hours, depending on the weather. When it géls under 40 below it's almost impossible to go ony’ Because dogs perspire through their tongues, and if a dog sticks its tongue out, at 50 or 60 below the tongue freezes. Also, the sled’s runners seem t0 stick at that temperature, and it’s like pulling a sled over bare ground. Ed’s boys have grown up, and they run the mail most of the time now, Horace brings it halfway, Charlie sleds it on in. I asked if he rode the sleds, or mushed behind all the way. He laughed and said, “Well, I never ride the sled, but I'll have to say my boys do. 1 don’t know whether theyre lazier or smarter than I am, but they ride the runners’ most of the time.” He used to wear a mustache to cover up his bad teeth. Now that he has false teeth he still wears it. He says it frosts over in wihtertime and protects his mouth.

The first-aid division of the Red Cross is swamped these days with requests for new classes, as a result of the growing realization by the public that the nation is at war. Right now there are about 250 classes going, and a special committee has been named to arrange for more qualified instructors so more classes can be started.

Vickie, the V-Cat

A 3-WEEK OLD kitten is getting quite a bit of attention at Fendrick’s restaurant. The kitten, whose Persian mother is on mouse duty in the basement under the restaurant, has two distinct: V's (for victory) on her forehead—one above each eye. She's been named Vickie—short for Victoria. : . . When workmen cleaning the amusement devices at Riverside amusement park quit for the day recently, a big flock of sparrows took over. The men had left a large quantity of cloth waste (used in cleaning) on the “whip,” expecting to find it there the next morning. They did, but it was scattered from one end of the “whip” to the other and the. sparrows were “going to town” with’ their home building. The birds chattered and scolded while the men gathered up the waste so they could go to work.

TWO YEARS AGO when he was the only Republican office holder in the State House, Secretary of State Jim Tucker “showed up” his Democratic confreres by publicly turning back the state They were sold. Now, we'll bet he wishes he hadn’t done it. You see, some of his employees, particularly securities investigators, have to drive around the state on business. And they're up against the tire problem. It's a lot easier to get tires for a publicly owned car than for a private car, even though used publicly. . . That worried look on the faces of some of our school officials means theyre in the midst of the annual budget preparation.

stirs dark and fearful memories in the adult population of Germaay. President Roosevelt is only reflecting the figures when he says our production is working out extremely well. His goals set last winter seemed fantastic at the time. But Donald Nelson said he believed they could be reached. In some respects they are being reached. already. If materials hold out they will all be reached. Only the lag in shipping, aggravated. by heavy losses, is really disappointing. But for that, the effect of our production already would be visible in spectacular | ways in the fighting abroad.

The Day Is Coming...

IT MAY NOT BE that the decisive offensive can be carried through this year. This was scheduled to be the year of preparation. Perhaps it will be more. If so, that will be an unexpected gain. Germany is about at the end of her manpower reserves. The last are being rounded up now for the summer fighting. We were slow getting supplies to Russia for a while, but that is past and improvement has been rapid recently. Pressure is on to continue the improvement, for everything depends on supporting Russia so she can hold through. In saying these things, the importance of the war against Japan is not overlooked. China is in great danger of being cut off by the new northward drive of the Japanese in Burma. Gen. Stilwell, American chief of staff for Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, has far from what he ought to have to hold his ground. But his needs were not overlooked. Help has been dispatched, for it is part of American policy as well as that of other united nations to hold the lines in China and India against the day when it will be possible to make the decisive assault at, the heart of Japan and kill the octupus.

They frankly state that what was once thought to be satisfactory machinery for settling international questions, will probably not be so considered today. However, they do feel that since we must take an active part in world affairs, our people should be kept more informed than ever before about what is happening in the world and be ready to act with knowledge, where so- many years ago they failed to act because of lack of knowledge. ‘The retail stores of our country are taking seriously their responsibility for selling war savings stamps.

5000 CANVASS COUNTY ASKING BOND PLEDGES

Drive Lasts All Week; 10 Per Cent of Income Is Suggested Basis.

Five thousand voluntary “MacArthur Week” workers in Marion county, armed with bundles of instructions, forms and booklets, marched out this morning to canvass their neighborhoods Yor war bond pledges. Simultanec:sly, thousands ¢f other volunteers throughout Indiana began their drive. The canvass will last through Saturday. Young and old joined in the work here. One woman volunteer started off with her daughter who was too small to leave at home alone. Several other volunteers who are: yet in high school planned to begin their canvass si afternoon after classes.’ Explain Salvage Program In Indianapolis and Marion county the pledging drive has been combined with a civilian defense educational campaign. Volunteers were obtained through the defense council organization from which they also received their instructions. In large envelopes the canvassers were carrying: 1. Detailed instruction on how to! approach residents in regard to

the defense program. 2, One bond’ pledge book with forms in triplicate. 3. Twenty folders explaining the salvage for victory program of the defense organization, one to be left at each home.

List Salvage Agencies

4. Twenty salvage cards giving telephofie numbers of all agencies who are gathering salvage; one card to be left at each home. 5. Twenty forms on which to make a survey of the housing facilities of each home in case of an emergency. The defense council wants to know where refugees could be placed. 6. One canvasser’s handbook giving full details on war bonds— ii i Sous, interests, etc. enty patriotic stic to be left at each pledged Reps: gue Mrs. H. H. Arnholter, chairman of the drive, has estimated it will take from 10 to 20 minutes to make a survey of each home. She also hinted that it may take longer than just one week to complete the canvass in the city and county. She explained that the drive is still in need of volunteers and asked that od one who could help call RI.

Data Is Confidential

All material which the canvassers will carry is marked confidential. However, a new plan is in effect for those persons who do not wish the canvasser to know how much they are pledging towards the purchase of bonds. These individuals may fill out the forms out of sight of the canvassers and put the pleige in a sealed envelope and give to the canvassers. The envelope will not be opened until it gets to the state war bond staff. The staff keeps one copy of the form, sends one to the treasury department. The third remains with er. conscientious obligations, the bond staff points out. No bonds or stamps will be sold to the individuals by the canvassers. .

* Seek 10 Per Cent

All wage or salary earners are urged by the staff to pledge 10 per cent of their incomes. The treasury department has set Indiana’s war bond sales quota at. over $12,000,000 for the month of May. Eugene C. Pulliam, bcnd staff chairman, said the quota probably would be raised several million dollars for June. Mrs. Brandt Downey and Mrs. Clayton Ridge were named by Mrs. Arnholter to have charge of th¥® canvassers in the city and county. Mrs. Downey and Mrs. Ridge have divided the area into five districts and named a chairman for each. The chairmen are: Mrs. Frank Lentz, 1240 N. Tibbs ave, west district; Mrs. I. R. Yeager, 840 Lincoln st., south district; Mrs. Robert Mannfield, 5205 E. Washington st, east district; Mrs. Glen Parrish, 510 N.

CAMPAIGN HIGH

G. 0. P. Intra-Party Feud Is Highlight; Tyndall Pledge Given Negroes.

Starting the final week of their campaign, Democratic and Republican office-seekers tonight = will stage the heaviest oratorical barrage to date, with the G. O. P. intraparty feud providing most of the fireworks. Gen. Robert H. Tyndall, speaking at the Israelite Baptist church, North and Blackford sts., last night assured the Negro race that its

problems would “receive sympathetic consideration from his office.” “I have had experience with racial prejudice and I learned to deplore its unfairness,” the mayor candidate asserted. “At Camp Shelby in Mississippi, where I mobilized the 38th division last year, there were under my command 3000 Negro troops. They were among the best soldiers of the 50,000 quartered there. “When certain intolerant elements in the locality sought to abuse these men in various ways, I made a stern point of suppressing such tactics. TI found that Negro soldiers were being locked up and held unreasonably without hearing ‘when they unwittingly violated some of the peculiar Jim Crow laws. We moved speedily to stop this.” Glenn Punk, prosecutor cardidate, and Charles W. Jewett, Gen. Tyndall's manager, were other guests at the session.

Demand Tynda

ll Supporter

On Every Precinct Board

By VERN BOXELL A demand that a supporter of Gen. Robert H. Tyndall be placed on each precinct election board and charges that “the BradfordDaniels faction is making plans for wholesale vote fraud” were made today by supporters: of the retired army officer's mayor candidacy. In letters to County Chairman James Bradford and Henry E. Ostrom, the organization --approved mayor candidate, Charles Jewett,

{the general's manager, said:

“I ask that you permit me to name one member of each precinct election board from among those Republicans known to be favorable to Gen. Tyndall, I ask this in the American spirit of fair play and that there may be no charges of unfairness, such as have been made as the aftermath of many of our primary elections in the past.”

Selection Up to Chairman 7

Under the law, the G. O. P. county ¢hairman is entitled to select the Republican members of | each precinct board. Mr. Jewett said that upon request, “I will furnish you a list of qualified Republicans supporting Gren. Tyndall, who have expressed their willingness to serve.” After Mr, Bradford was quoted as saying that he would ask for the list and submit it to precinct committeemen to determine their qualifications to serve, Mr. Jewett said: : “Several duly committeemen Tyndall, and there are many of them, submitted election board recommendations to Mr. Bradfprd and he refused them because they were for Gen. Tyndall. What chance would any list I would siibmit have if persons suggested | by precinct committeemen who elect-

ed Mr. Bradford were turned down by him? “It's practically certain that my list would be refused by the successors to the Tyndall supporters as precinct committeemen who would be asked to approve |it. This statement by Mr. Bradford is just a subterfuge or he would come out and accept my offer. “I started the practice of the _oppesition representation many ‘years ago,” the former mayor coni tinued, “when I permitted the Lew Shank organization to name one, representative on each | election board to assure a fair primary.” Glenn W. Funk, candidate for the prosecutor nomination, made the fraud prediction, explaining: “Samt|jn Blum, deputy prosecutor and 12th ward chairman, told a candidate for county clerk that this candidate would noi get a single vote in the 12th ward. This candidate |is being opposed by the Bradford-Daniels clique, which has all of the money and power of the water company ‘and its interests behind |it. The implication in this statement is entirely too plain. It simply means that there is a deliberate, organized plan afoot to steal the primary. Claims Rights Taken Away “Precinct committeemen’s boards | | are being changed all over the county wherever this clique finds that the committeeman’ intends to give all candidates an equal chance. The ‘changing of the precinct hoards is for the sole purpose of trying to instruct a vote for the i candidates. “The elected comhittoeuen are entitled to name these boards, because they were chosen by|the Republicans of their precinct to represent them in party affairs. Yet this little clique of selfish, self-appointed leaders assumes the power to take away these rights from the people's

3B Class Created for Those in War Jobs But Others Face Call.

| |Col. Robinson Hitchcock, state selective service chief, said that Ine diana’s local draft boards probably would receive within the next few days an order instructing them to divide the present -Class 3-A men into two e¢lasses, 3-A and 3-B. The men with dependents who do not have essential war jobs will be placed in the former class and the men ‘with dependents who are

be placed in the latter, according to an announcement made Saturday by national draft headquarters in Washington. Class 3A, as it is at present, comprises approximately 70 per cent of the total number of registrants

hausted, probably late this summer, or early fall, it will be necessary to call some men with dependents who do not have vital jobs, draft officials said. State draft officials

‘say that there are approximately

450,000 Class 3-A men in Indiana. Expect Little Trouble

In making the division, draft board officials will simply go through their lists, placing, according to ine formation furnished by the ques= tionnaires, the 3-A men with vital jobs in 3-B and leaving the others in 3-A. No new questionnaires are necessary because registrants dre required to notify draft boards of any change of status. If a man is placed in 3-B, he will be notified, but if he is left in 3-A, the classification he already has, he Ww" not be notified, Col. Hitchcock

Classification is just starting for the men who registered Feb. 16 and the draft boards will place these men in the new classes as they classify them. Meanwhile, in Washington legis« lation to | provide financial aid for dependents of enlisted men in the armed forces assumed front rank importance in congress. Tightening requirements for draft
