COAST'S DEFENSE
HI
Obsolete, Inadequate. Poorly
Distributed is Word of
Senator on Visit West.
Salem, July 22. IJP) U. S.
Senator Rufus C. Holman (R.
Ore.) said today that the defense
of the Pacific coast are "crimin-
ally obsolete, woefully inade
Q quate and poorly distributed."
Holman, a member of a special
senate sub-committee appointed
to investigate west coast and
Alaska defenses, blamed Presi
dent Roosevelt and his subordin
ates who, Holman said, "are
more concerned with the plight
of the people of Iraq and Iran
than the safety of their folks
here at home."
He charged that the guns at
Fort Stevens could not reply to
the Japanese submarine which
shelled the Fort Stevens reser
vation June 21 because they
are of 1898 vintage and lacked
range.
Planes All Away
Holman said there were no
naval planes at Tongue Point,
because they were "all away on
11 an undisclosed mission." He
said further that army bombers
at the Portland air base did not
attack the submarine because
the base was not notified of the
attack until several hours after
It was over.
Senator Holman said army air
forces in the northwest are
"grossly inadequate."
He denied he is an isolation
1st, asserting he is a nationalist,
who believes that adequate pre
paration for war is the greatest
insurance against war.
He said the sub-committee
would start its investigations in
a few days, visiting every mili
tary installation on the Pacific
and Alaskan coasts.
Jehovah Witnesses
Hamper War Effort
Say K. F. Carpenters
Klamath Falls, Ore., July 22
(At Activities of Jehovah's
Witnesses were vigorously con
demned before the city council
here last night by the Carpen
ters' local, 190, of the American
Federation of Labor.
The carpenters, whose action
was endorsed by the Central
Labor Council, charged the re
ligious cult is refusing to sup
port the war effort. They asked
the council to take steps to
"hamper and prevent" Witness
activities, such as the distribu
tion of tracts and playing of
phoi.ograph records on the front
porches of unwilling listeners.
In a statement to the council,
the unionists urged that Jeho
vah's Witm .ses be classed as
"the most disrespectful element
among the conscientious object
ors and be looked upon with
scorn and disapproval."
The council will inquire as to
what steps other cities have
taken to control such activities
I as those of the Witnesses.
Station Cinderella
Weds Sun Oil Heir
Philadelphia, July 22 P
Walter C. Pew, Jr., and his gas
station Cinderella were honey
mooning today in a new Phila
delphia story that started when
Dan Cupid traded his bow and
arrow for a grease gun.
Pew, an heir to the Sun Oil
company fortune, and Miss
Sophie Boycl.uck. pretty, blonde
attendant at a Sun filling station
were married last night. The
romance has the blessing of
both families.

Alaska Censorship
Slapped by Mayor
Of Far North Town
Portland, July 22. (IP)
"Wouldn't America rather know
step-by-step that the Japanese
are conquering the Aleutians
than to hear all at once that all
Alaska is gone?" Mayor J. W.
Fletcher of Unalaska, Alaska,
asked today in flaying the rigid
censorship on Alaska war news.
In an interview, Mayor Fletch
er said: "Where it makes sense
where there's even the least
thread of chance that the enemy
doesn't have certain information,
cens rship is desirable. The Jap
B'.iese knew they were there . . .
and they knew we knew it be
cause they had contacted our
planes. Yet the public was kept
in ignorance."
Capturing Alaska is far differ
ent than conquering continental
United States, he raid. "Takf
Dutch Harbor, Fairbanks, Nome
and one or two Jther small
towns and Alaska is lost," he
said.

RIDE IN JEEP FOR-
A bond this week buys a ride
in a Jeep. And much interest is
being displayed in the offer this
week by the county war bond
sales committee who have ar
ranged the privilege of each per
son buying a war bond being
given a ride in an army jeep at
the Victory Center Friday and
Saturday.
Many parents have telephoned
members of the bond sales com
mittee asking if their children
could ride in the Jeep rather
than the mother or father. W.
A. . Gates, county bond sales
chairman, said today that such
arrangements can be made and
as a result it is expected that
many Jackson county children
will be given the opportunity of
enjoying a ride in the jeep.
Purchasers of bonds this week
are requested to ask for a dated
copy of the bond application
from the issuing . agency and
take the dated application to
the Victory Center either Frt
day or Saturday. - The fact that
the drivers of the Jeeps will be
handsome soldiers with south
ern accents" will probably ap
peal to many feminine purchas
ers of bonds, the sales commit
tee says.
