THE MAN WHO CAME TO DINNER at our house
was a soldier. We swapped stories about friends, fam
ilies and places. He enjoyed our dinner immensely and
flattered the cook no end. We took pride in telling him
tales of the Gold Rush days and promises of the future
and were interested in getting his impression of Nome
as he sees it now. We think that it is a privilege to have
in our homes the boys, who if the occasion arises, will
be called upon to defend them.
If you would like to get acquainted call JANE SNIF
FEN at Army 161 and make arrangements for your hol
iday dinner, or fill in the invitation below and mail it
to JANE SNIFFEN, Service Club, Marks Air Base,
Nome, Alaska.

'Continued from Page One)
a special meeting yesterday after
noon that their men “will not re
turn to work until they receive
definite assurance that they will
not be harmed by ‘goons’ on or off
the job.”
Two members were beaten up
and one had to be hospitalized re
cently, they said.
‘‘These men were attacked be
cause they were said to have
worked in the strike-free port of
Tacoma during the recent west
coast tie-up,” Doyle stated. “These
men were simply living up to the
union's contract.”
The dispute does not affect the
AFL ports of Tacoma, Port An- ;
geles and Anacortes, spokesmen
said.
William Gettings, regional CIO
longshoremen’s union head, de
nit*! that CIO members had any
thing to do with the asserted beat- j
ings.
Waterfront employers of Wash-;

been notified of the AFL action
but that they could “see no way in
which such assurance can be given
by employers.”
