WAR AFFECTS SEATTLE
IN VARIOUS WAYS
War industries are booming
' but the auto firms and others
i serving motorists are quieter
| than in many years, according to
Della Hill, one of the owners of
i the Alaska Market in Fairbanks,
i who returned recently from the
Puget Sound city after a visit
there of several weeks attending
j to business and private affairs.
The war is affecting Seattle in
i many ways, some favorable and
others unfavorable, Mrs. Hill
i said.
I At the same time she left Seat
i tie, new cars, tires and many
other articles were “frozen” as
far as retail sales were concern
ed While gasoline was still avail
1 able and sales had not been re
stricted pans were being for
mu'ated to put conservation mea
sures in effect. First move, it was
understood, would be to ban all
retail milk deliveries by the var
ious dairies serving the city.
Milk would be available only at
the dairy plants or at grocery
! stores.
Paper Is Scarce
With a paper scarcity facing
the country, stores in Seattle
were asking shoppers to bring
their own shopping bags and
• other paper bags if they had
such. Residents had been asked
to save all paper, including news'
papers, for collection and pro
cessing.
On the favorable side of the
ledger, of course, is the business
prosperity that has attended the
expansion of the war industries. '
For the first time in many years, .
Seattle is afflicted with a housing
shortage in spite of the hundreds
of new homes that have been j
constructed. The city’s popula
tion has swelled to its highest'
peak in history, and the nearby,
communities are feeling the im- j
petus given all lines of business
not affected by shortage of mat
erials.

TREASURE ISLAND
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. -Rear,
Admiral Greenslade has request- i
ed G"V. Culbert L. Olson of Cal;
Lfornia to ask the Legislature to1
nclude an amendment permitting
San Francisco to transfer Trea
sure Island to the Navy for use
as a training base.
San Francisco’s city attorney
O'Toole, and Mayor Rossi have
declared the city is ready to
grant the navy’s wish and turn
over the island but the city can’t
give a clear title to the property
without a legislative amendment.
Rear Admiral Green.s’ade’s let
ter to Governor Olson, made pub
lc by the twelfth naval district
staff, said:
“Your active cooperation in
this matter on behalf of the navy i
is solicited and depended upon."
It was indicated the navy
would carry the matter to court
and have the property condemn
ed if Governor O'son failed to
speed the transfer.
KNOX SAYS STORIES
ARE SUSPICIOUS
—
WASHINGTON, Jan. — Secre
tary of Navy Frank Knox said
he believed the stories of inter
nal unrest n Germany are spur
ious and deliberately spread to
take the edge off the American
war effort.
He told a press conference •
that “almost every one of the!
stories about the terrible situa
tion in Germany originates in
territory controled by Germany
md this alone should raise a
suspicion.”
He said that there undoubted-;
y had been a shakeup in the
German high command, but that,
he situation in Russia has not
^et become a rout. He pointed!
>ut that the Germans still ;
rave “the greatest military ma- J
:hine in the world.”

BERMANS ADMIT TO
SHAKEI'P IN ARMY
STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Jan.—
Swedish press dispatches from
Berlin said that Nazi military!
spokesmen had admitted that a
shakeup was in progress in the!
German general staff.
The Germans denied, however,;
that the situation represented!
what could be called ‘‘a general
crisis.”
The Nazis military authorities!
were reported to be calling more
recruits to the colors and some I
of the reservists were being giv-!
en very short notice.
The German spokesman hinted
that important military actions
are being prepared. He refused!
to divulge the nature of the ac
tions.
