joint meeting of the Senate for
eign relations and armed services
committee, argued that the full
amount—$1,450,000,000 is needed ■
to safeguard the security of the j
United States.

“Should Western Europe be
overrun by a hostile power -and
should its vast industrial and man
power potentials be added to those
of such an aggressor, the United
States would stand isolated in a
dangerously insecure period.
“United States security, there
fore, demands that Europe be
safeguarded.”
“A military vacuum in Western
Europe,” Johnson added, “is a
great temptation to the Soviet Un
ion and international commun
ism.”
In connection with the arms
plan, some Senators say they are
confused over the question:
When does a tank become sur
plus?
They may write a ceiling of
$500,000,000 on the amount of
military surplus that can be ship
ped abroad, leaders sadi.
Their confusion arose from a
disclosure by Senator Knowland

CITY COUNCIL
The Nome City Council held its
regular meeting on Monday eve
ning with a good attendance.
A letter from Dr. F. Langsam
was read asking the city to furn
ish $200.00 per month toward the
upkeep of the quarters of the Ter
ritorial Health Nurse, Lois Mor
gan’s quarters in the hospital. The
Council disapproved the request
as they felt the city was not able
at this time to pay the amount due
to the fact that the Terriorial
Health Department had placed a
burden on the city of other ex
penses.
A communication from Col. D.
Jamison of Marks Air Force Base
was read refusing the city’s re
quest for the removal of the barb

Sand Spit.
Councilman Joe Hunt of the
law and ordinance committee re
ported the sales tax ordinance was
being shaped up.
A petition was submitted by a
citizen’s committee as a result of
the special meeting held on July
26th with the following requests:
Division of the Fire and Police
department; a city attorney on full
time pay; publication of the finan
cial statement of the city.
The discussion following took
each item separately and the coun
cil agreed that when city finances
would permit the two depart
ments in question would be di
vorced.
In regards to the city attorney,
the law and ordinance committee
was instructed to work on an or
