Fourth Division D. A.
Quits His Post
FAIRBANKS — Everett W.
Hepp, United States attorney for
the Fourth Division since 1949,
announced that his resignation
from the post has been accepted
and will become effective Sept. 1.
The resignation, tendered July
1, was recently accepted by the
President.
Although Hepp has been con
templating leaving the office he
has served the past five years
for some time the announcement
came as a surprise to many citi
zens today.
The D.A. stated that he was re
signing from the post to enter
private practice.
“I feel that five years in a
prosecuting office of this type is
enough for anyone,” he said.
He explained that it was not an
impulsive move on his part but
that he had been contemplating
leaving the post for more than
a year. He delayed his resignation
due to local conditions and felt
that he should not leave the of
fice amid the “spring rush,” or
busy season for law enforcement
agencies.

S.S. Benefits Will
Go Up In October
Many people in the Nome area
will receive higher social security
payments beginning early in Oc
tober as a result of the social se
curity amendments which Presi
dent Truman signed into law last
week.
James G. Browne, manager of
the Juneau social security office,
emphasized that ncf one needs to
apply for the increased payments.
“The Social Security Administra
tion is already changing the
amounts,” he pointed out. “We
expect to get them changed in
time to have them in the mail
October 3, the regular delivery
date, but if in a few cases we
don’t meet that schedule we’ll
send the regular check and make
up the difference in a later
check.”
Amount of the increase for a
retired worker will range from
$5 to $8.60, with the average
about $6.
Beginning Sept. 1, the new law
increases to $75 a month instead
of $50 the amount of money a
beneficiary may earn and still re
ceive the monthly benefits. Self
employed people entitled to old
age and survivors insurance may
receive the payments for each
month of the year if their net
earnings the entire year are not
over $900.

Allied Negotiators
Accuse Reds Of
“Utter Hypocrisy”
MUNSAN, (/P)—Allied negotia
tors Saturday accused the Com
munists of “utter hypocrisy” and
walked out of the Korean truce
talks for a week.
Maj. Gen. William K. Harrison,
Jr., senior United Nations dele
gate, told the protesting Reds he
would return Aug. 3.
“If you have anything worth
saying (before Aug. 3) you can
say it to our staff officers,” Har
rison declared.
North Korean Gen. Nam II, the
chief Communist negotiator, har
angued the Allies for insisting
that no prisoner be repatriated
against his will.
“In these meetings,” Harrison
said, “We have been restrained in
our statements and have tried to
be accurately faithful. Your state
ments on the other hand, have
demonstrated utter hypocrisy.
You have said we want to retain
your personnel. What’ we know,
what the world knows as a fact,
is that those prisoners are afraid
to be returned as slaves to the
tender mercies of Communist con
trol.”
Some types of sheep have hair
and some types of goats have
wool.
