Eskimo Postmaster
Finds Spokane Noisy,
Traffic Lights Confusing
SPOKANE, Sept. 17 (/P) — An
Eskimo postmaster on his first
trip from the north country has
found the city very noisy, the
streets very wide and the traffic
lights very confusing.
Frank Ryan, postmaster at the
Alaskan village of Unalakleet, is
here with his wife and a 1-year
old son for the national conven
tion of postmasters. He has never
been away from northern Alaska
before. /
“We couldn’t understand the
traffic lights at first,” he said.
“We couldn’t sleep at all the first
couple of nights,” he told news
men. “The streets here are won
derful, even better than our side
walks.”
Ryan said he and his family
were so impressed by the bright
store windows they have spent all
the money they brought.
Ryan has been postmaster since
1942 at Unalakleet, a village of
50 white and 600 Eskimos about
150 miles east of Nome.
SPEEDING CURB PROPOSED
CARBONDALE, 111., (/P) — To
slow down motorists, several Car
bondale residents proposed that
their street be graded liWe a roller
coaster. Their formal petition to
city council was taken under ad
visement.
Mayor John Wright commented
that the same effect might be
gained by allowing streets to de
teriorate into ruts, making speed
ing impractical.

Mt. Edgecumbe San.
Sept. 9, 1952
To Whom It May Concern:
I would like to have your at
tention at least just for a couple
of minutes. This is Especially for
those who can read and write.
I want to tell you what I’ve
seen and heard since I entered
the Sanatorium in 1950.
I have seen patients in the San
who are from 10 to over 40 years
of age. Some can read and write.
And some can’t even talk English
And some can’t even talk English.
When the nurses or the atten
dants pass mail around some of
these patients don’t even get mail.
Sometimes they even call out their
names—that’s in case the nurses
forget their names.
All of these patients really get
homesick and are always expect
ing mail from home.
I even saw some grown people
break down and weep. So you
can imagine how homesick they
get because they don’t hear from
home.
So if anyone having relatives or
a brother or sister in the Sana
torium, please write to them,
whether or not they can read or
write.
Because you may be next.
And I thank fau.
