PUBLIC GIVEN BLAME
FOB SMALL FAMILIES
LONDON—(£*)—Public opinion
is at least partly to blame for
Britain’s declining birthrate, says
the National Council of Women in
a submission to the government’s
i Royal Commission Investigating
the problem.
“The status of motherhood must
be raised. The public tends to pity
and even jeer at the mothers of
a large family,” the statement
says.

Alaskan Department Offers
Soldiers “Rough Living”
Course Of Training
HEADQUARTERS, ALASKAN
DEPARTMENT — The Alaskan
Department has scored a bulls-eye
with soldiers who like outdoor
life or who are prospective moun
tain climbers, guides, hunters,
rangers or explorers.
Beginning October 1, the North
Pacific Combat School at APO
980 offered deserving GIs a course
on living in rough and unmapped
country, with emphasis on moun
taineering techniques, camping
and cooking, land navigation,
emergency foods, arctic clothing
and bushcraft.
The 3-week course, which will
also include a study of climate
and wildlife—but NOT military
training—has the additional ap
peal of voluntary attendance and
the fact that it won’t delay the
soldier’s return to the United
States.
Tentative dates for future
courses are October 20 and No
vember 26.

MARTIN SORMANN
Forty - five - year - old Martin
Bormann, successor to Rudolf
Hess as chief of the Nazi party
chancellery, was described a year
ago by a German refugee writer
as ‘‘one of the most ruthless Nazi
organizers who ever made murder
his calling ... His career follows
the pattern of many a top-flight
Nazi—misfit, adventurer, desper
ado.” Born into a middle class
family in 1900, Bormann received
a good education, failed at dodg
ing conscription in the last war,
; and entered the army to receive
no promotions, distinguish himself
in no way . . . As a Nazi his uni
form was heavily be-medaled . . .
In 1943 he was reported one of
four top Nazis picked to succeed
Hilter in case of disaster.
FRITZ SAUCKEL 4
About the only intimate fact
known of Fritz Sauckel is that he
had the largest family of any Nazi
leader—ten children. Former gaul
eiter of Thuringia and a party
veteran, his appointment as high
commissioner for the employment
of all labor was announced in
March, 1942. These are some of
the cracks of his manpower whip
. . . hospital and clinic doctors
were deprived of the right to say
whether a German was fit to
work, such certification being
done only by doctors associated
with Sauckel’s organization . . .
German workers who lost time
because of air raids or military
service had to make it up in over
time on the job.
