Post Personalities
Since the 11th of November,
1945, the United States Troops on
the Army Reservation at Nome
has been commanded by Colonel
Thomas L. Waters. Many years of
experience on foreign and domes
tic assignments have particularly
fitted Colonel Waters for the task
of post-war reorganization.
Shortly after Pearl Harb^** he
"rrived at Newfoundland, where
he planned and installed the anti
aircraft defense, defend ng the U.
S. Naval Base at Argentia. Ap
pointed to the U. S. Military Acad
emy from Pennsylvania, he grad
uated with the class of June, 1919.
In the near future Mrs. Waters,
and their daughter, Sally Ann,
who are presently residing in Car
mel. Calif., are expected to join
the Colonel and reside on the
Post.
MANY TAX RETURNS
LOST ON S.S. YUKON
It has been estimated by Peter ^
M. Peterson, chief clerk of the
mail service that about 4000 in
come tax returns were lost in the
ma 1 on the S. S. Yukon. Little
mail was salvaged from the
steamer, as the hold containing
the mail was apparently opened
when the ship struck the rock and
the mail was washed into John
stone Bay.
Anyone who had their tax forms
on that ship are advised to enter
a second filing and send receipt
ed copies of the first filing. It is
believed that Nome, Anchorage, ‘
Seward, Cordova, Valdez, Seldo
via, and Homer all had returns,
not only from annual income tax,
'nit yearly and quarterly with
holding tax returns, social securi
ty returns, federal unemployment
and excise tax statements.
