WILY WOLVERINE TAKES
TOLL OF SUPPLIES AT CAMP
Frank and Jack Whaley, whi^
have been drilling this past month
on their ground at Rainbow, re
port that a wolverine has been
taking a heavy toll of supplies
and has repeatedly evaded traps.
The wily creature seemed to
know when everyone was away
from camp and made a new hole
in the camp wall, each time the
previous hole was covered. The
animal was even able to open
cans of food, states Frank, who
hopes to outsmart it when he re
turns to camp in the near future.

U.S. Attorney
Defines Term
Habitual Drunkard
The United States Attorney’s
office has announced that it con
siders that anyone who has been
convicted of drunkenness five or
more times within any twelve-j
month period is an habitual drunk
ard within the meaning of the
term “habitual drunkard’ as used
in Chapter 60 of the Sessions
Laws of Alaska for 1939; and that
anyone giving, bartering or sel
ling any intoxicating liquor, in
cluding beer and wine, to any
such habitual drunkard will be
prosecuted.
Part of Chapter 60 of the Ses
sions Laws of Alaska for 1939
deals with this question directly
and reads as follows:
"It shall be unlawful io give,
barter or sell any intoxicating
liquors, including beer and wine,
to any person under the age of
twenty-one years, to any intoxi
cated person, or to any habitual
drunkard; and it shall be unlaw
ful for any licensee to permit the
giving, selling, bartering or drink
ing of any intoxicating liquor
within the premises covered by
any license to or by any of the
forbidden classes."

NWA CHAMBER BOARD MET j
FRIDAY EVENING. BUSINESS
The board of directors of the
Northwestern Alaska Chamber of
Commerce met last Friday even
ing to take up the business at
hand.
The several committees reported
on various projects: the emer
gency hospital—reported to be in
readiness except for equipment
which is due to arrive on the
first Jaoat.
The pamphlet—some advertis
ers yet to get copy to the printer.
The proposed new hospital—
the site as offered by the Rotary
Club of Nome was discussed and
a proposal to prove the ground
was made, also action of the Rot
ary Club was heartily endorsed.
The Nome Breakwater—the sea
wall was discussed in that the
action taken by Congress thus far
has more than exceeded expec
tations. The measure has passed
both houses and will now be
come law when the President puts
his signature thereon. Other than
that, there is required an appro
priation bill for the cost of con
struction.
Tourist business into Nome was I
discussed and it was noted some
of the airlines had big plans for the
coming season. The business to
be had from such tourists in the
community would be quite good
and would be that little extra that
makes business interesting.
