PROSPECTOR'S SUNDAY
AT FEDERATED CHURCH
This Sunday is being observed
as Prospector’s Sunday at the
Methodist Church, Federated in
recognition of the important place
the mining industry has in Nome.
In Silka the Lutheran church will
observe this Sunday as Fisher
man’s Sunday, just as the Metho
dist and Lutheran Church have in
past years at Juneau. In the farm
ing areas of the States the day
will be widely observed as Rural
Life Sunday.
Mining has been Nome’s lead
ing industry ever since gold was
discovered right here on ou rbeach
at the turn of the century fifty
years ago. All through these years
the Federated Church has been
ministering to prospectors and
miners and their families, and the
first subscription for the building
fund for the church included gen
erous donations from the early
gold seekers.
The service Sunday will include
an anthem by the senior choir,
Scriptural responsive reading re
garding God’s gold, and the pas
tor’s message “Seek, and Ye Shall
Find.” Anyone connected with
goldmining is especially invited to
the 11:00 o’clock “Prospector’s
Service.”

I FORSAKE FARM; ROB BANK;
NABBED BY FBI
GREAT FALLS, Mont. (/P) —
The federal bureau of investiga
tion said today two young farmers
had been arrested in the robbery
of a Valier, Mont., bank yester
day. Both admitted their part and
' all but $900 of the $1(3.100 was re
covered in a garbage can, the
: FBI added.
Agent W. Guy Bannister iden
! tified the pair as Maurice Arthur
Holm, 24, and Lewis Andrew Pe
ters, 2(3. He said they were cap
tured during the night at Conrad,
only 20 miles east of Valier.
Bannister said the arrests were
made 12 hours after two masked
men robbed the Farmers and
j Stockmen’s Bank at Valier.
Bank President Nels Swanson
was forced to open the safe for
the robbers, each carrying two
guns, when he opened the bank
yesterday morning. After scoop
ing up the available currency and
; some silver, the men tied up
Swanson and fled.

MAY REACH 4-WAY DEAL FOR
ALUMINUM MANUFACTURE
VICTORIA, B. C\, (TP)—A four
wav deal may be in the offing, the
Canadian press reported last
night, to permit the Aluminum
Company of America to use wa
ter from a chain of lakes in north
ern Briitsh Columbia for a hydro i
project.
The purported deal would in- i
volve the governments of Can- !
ada, the> U. S. and British Solum- j
bit, and the company.
It would include concessions by ;
the United States on aluminum |
manufactured in Canada—drop- j
ping of the two cent a pound tax i
on imported aluminum ingots.
Such a step would favor the ri
val Aluminum Company of Can
dida, now planning a reduction
plant at Kitimat, 400 miles up the
coast from Vancouver. The two
companies now are vying for the
water-power rights for develop
ment of a $500,000,000 aluminum
industry at either Kitimat or near
Skagway, Alaska.
The Provincian Government is
understood to oppose the applica- !
lion of the American company if!
i
i the plant is not built in British
J Columbia. I
Communication
Twenty-two years a;;o I was ai

boys and girls 22 years ago now
all grown up and married. I did
not know them; but they knew
me. Those who were my age all

The out-of-town visitors were
163 people, totaling about 315 peo
ple attending, and there were 43
