CITY COUNCIL MET
ON MONDAY NIGHT
The City Council held their reg
ular meeting Monday night au
thorizing the payment of all bills
owed by the City, with the excep
tion of the amount of four thou
sand odd dollars for the bulkhead
built across Lanes Way during the
past season and which recently
sustained considerable damage
from the heavy seas. It was moved
to postpone payment until some
explanation could be made by the
contractor for apparent neglect to
fulfill contract.
The City tax roll was discussed
regarding the taxing of properties
owned and used by churches and
charitable organizations and it
was moved to table the action for
the 1946 tax assessments.
A letter from an Anchorage
firm of city appraisers was read
and discussed. It was moved that
the City Clerk be instructed to re
ply to the letter, giving whatever
information the firm desired as to
the population and value of Nome,
in arriving at a figure for the cost
of reappraising properties in Nome
for the purpose of taxation.
Pemission was granted to the
Ministerial Association of Nome
for the opening of an ice-skating
rink on River Street between C
and D Streets.
A communication from Gover
nor Gruening requesting informa
tion on inconvenience and losses
suffered by merchants and indi
viduals because of the shipping
strikes.
During the discussion it was
brought out that some of the
coastal villages are without their
winter supplies because of the
strikes which caused the boats to |
be delayed beyond the season of
Healthiest Man In World
Is Regular Army Soldier
The American soldier is “The
Healthiest Man in the World,’’ i.
is said in a booklet of that UUo
now being issued by the Army
Recruiting Service. The new boo .
let is being distributed in con lec
tion with the campaign to uu.iu a
hundred percent volunteer Ragu
lar Army by July 1, 1947, to meet
America’s committment., in the
postwar world.
America’s health standards have
risen, and the people are more
health-conscious, says the Army,
since millions of veterans have re
turned from the war with a new
appreciation of the value of or
ganized health programs.
During the war years, when
medical facilities were taxed to
the utmost, the death rate from
disease in the Army was only
about a third of mortality rates
among comparable civilian groups.
The dreaded scourge, pneumo
nia, for example offered no real
threat to the health of the Army.
Deaths from pneumonia were only i
six-tenths of one percent, a re- •
markable improvement over
World War I, when 24 out of every
hundred men stricken died from
the disease.
During World War II, the death
rate from all types of disease was
less than one man out of every
navigation to the Various ports.
The City of Nome reports the
lack of sufficient fire main to con
nect the D Street main with the
West First Avenue main because
of shipping difficulties. Many
Nome merchants, it was brought
out, could in all probability add
much to the toll of loss and incon
venience caused by the strikes.
The City Clerk was instructed to
repyl to the communication.
