“I haven’t any," replied the
man. “I just circulate around, so

Nome, Alaska,
August 26, 1947.
Nome Nugget,
Nome, Alaska.
The reaction take by some of
our political and business men re:
the reservation for the Shungnak
Native Tribe hearing, as publish
ed in the Nome Nugget on August
18, 1947, was small and unfair. The
remarks Mr. Polet made as to a
business proposal in which he
claimed the natives took no inter
est, he did not tell at the hearing
why he was refused. “What was
his offer?”
There were comments made by'
the other witnesses that do not
make sense. These people are for-!
getting that a lot of their livelihood
is due to the native people who
make their money in Alaska and
spend it here.
The members of the Arctic Na-;
tive Brotherhood after sincere1
consideration of native problems
that occur on different occasions
decided to acquaint you with the
Equal Rights Bill, which many
people are using as a tool in argu
ments against native problems.

The Ordnance boys really got
the camping bug last week-end.
One group of campers consisted
of Sgt. Davis, T/5 Paul, Pfc. Ku
cera, Pfc. Jurca and Pfc. DePauw.
They spent two rough days at Pa.
Safety and are still spitting sand.
T/5 Radeke, Pfc. Ammerman, and
Pfc. Black spent their week-end
driving some 68 miles up the
track toward the Kougarok. Every
one returned refreshed and wo’ie
making plans for doing the same
this week-end.
The Engineers will soon be los
ing another man when T/5 Don
ald Duffey leaves for the States.
S/Sgt. Leslie has returned from
another venture into the country
of the Alatna River. 1st Sgt. Toe
Shoemaker is back to work after
spending a few days in the hos
pital. Sgt. Wally Oestrich was also
unfortunate. He and two others
attempted to cross Snake River in
a small boat when it capsized, and
Sgt. Oestrich was saved from the
icy water by the heroic efforts of
Pfc. Mercurio and S/Sgt. Wenger.
The three Hq. Det. Sourdoughs
have at last returned. T/Sgt. Con
nor, S/Sgt. Breschak, and T/3
Sharp have returned with a heal
thy complexion and some of the
biggest tales you ever heard. If
the rabbit that T/3 Sharp tells us
about is as big as he says, it will
probably be entered in the Ken
tucky Derby next year. Cpl. Cle
mente has found a very important
new way of utilizing linseed oil.
Ask him and he might demonstrate
it for you.
J Sgt. Theodore T. Booth and
Leonard Lane from Hq. 10th Res
! cue Sq. gave the fellows of Det.
10th Rescue Sq. here a visit. Both
of them had been on leave and
I were just passing through. If any,
one knows how. when or where to (
catch some of the fish around,
here, would they pleace let Sgt. |
Ramsay know. Telephone number
is Army 124.
! Another week-end was spent at
Solomon by a group of QM adven
turers. Steinberg, Sterling. George
Abraham, A1 Ammon, and Tom
Lavan, and a few others will un
fortunately be doing something
less interesting this next Saturday
, and we all know what that is. PT
is quite adequate when a boat sits
' in the port awaiting unloading ac
tivities to commence. With Paul
Kankini and Byron James home
ward bound we feel our QM popu
lation slowly decreasing.
Last Sunday the Signal Platoon
enjoyed a sight-seeing tour to sev
eral interesting points. In the
morning we went part of the way
to Mile 28, and in the afternoon
we went to Cape Nome and Point
Safety. Some of the fellows were
surprised to see as much vegeta
tion as there is on the roadside to
Mile 28.
There were several rolls of film
taken during the day by the mem
bers of the group.
Several members of the 761st
MP Det. had a very nice outing
this past week end and they also
brought the pictures back to prove
NOME ROTARY CLUB
MET THURSDAY NOON
The Nome Rotary Club held its
regular weekly meeting Thursday
noon in the Sunday School room
of the Federated Church. Follow
ing the luncheon and regular busi
ness, Col. John E. Bodle, com
manding officer of the Nome Air
Base introduced his three guests:
Maj. Beck, food supervisor of the
Alaskan Air Command; Maj. Rein
bothe, food supervisor for the
Alaskan Department, and Maj.
Norris, commanding officer of the
64th Fighter Squadron, Elmendorf
Field.
Maj. Beck gave a talk on the
work of the food department of
the army, and the experiments
now going on, both through civil
ian and military channels, in an
effort for still greater improve
ments in food handling.
it. They are planning many more
just such week ends as the fish
and ptarmigan seem to be plenti
ful. Pfc. Price was the only man to
suffer any after effects from the
trip insomuch as his right arm
and shoulder took quite a beating
from the 12 gauge he was lugging
around. S/Sgt. Miller has turned
into a big game hunter lately as
he has recently declared war on
rats. So far his luck hasn’t been
any too good but as time goes by
maybe he’ll be fortunate enough
: to trap one.
Argentina Gives
Unacceptable
Amendment
QUITANDINHA, Brazil, (/P)—A
surprise Argentine amendment to
hemisphere defense measures was
raised today in what had prom
ised to be a perfunctory session of
the inter-American conference
committee on aggression.
Sen. Vandenberg fR.-Mich.>, U.
S. delegate, charged that the Ar
gentine move was “an attempt to
limit even the right to consult” on
aggression. He said the amend
ment proposed “a limitation we
can never accept.”
The committee assembled to
study the draft report on the inter
American zone of maritime secur
ity, drawn up by delegates of the
United States, Argentina and
Chile. It had been expected to ap
prove quickly the outline of a se
curity zone stretching from pole
to pole and from Greenland to the
Aleutians.
NEW YORK ATTORNEY
FINDS NOME "CHILLY"
Jules Weinberg, New York at
torney, is visiting in Nome for the
first time, although he states he
has wished to make the trip for
many years. He states that the
country is interesting but a trifle
chilly.
