FRANK MALFATTI
LEAVES FOR SITKA
Frank Malfatti 90 years young,
! who has been in the Deering area
since coming to Nome in 1900, is
, enroute to Sitka today to join
many of his adventurous friends
* of the pioneer days and relive the
exciting days of the gold strike.
Mr. Malfatti was one o*f the,
three original locaters at Deering,
who outfitted at Nome in 1901,
packing their grubstakes on their
back and dragging a sled, and
started out to find a new strike
which they did in the Imnachuk
area and at Deering. During the
past fifty years he has located
many pavstreaks which helped
the growth and development of
the Deering area, as have the old
prospectors all over Seward Pe
ninsula.

WASHINGTON, (JP)— Domestic;
i
problems began to reclaim atten
tion in the congressional c a m
paign today as military victory j
tended to diminish the Korean
war as a political issue.
Senator Taft «R-Ohio), who has
been contending the Truman ad
ministration’s “blunders”, invited
the Korean communist attack,
shifted to renunciation of the
Brannan farm plan.
In a weekly report to Ohio vo
ters. Taft said the Brannan plan—
which would provide direct gov- i
ernment subsidies to growers of,
perishable crops under certain j
circumstances—“is a fraud on its1
face.” |
He complained that supporters
of the Brannan plan have not
said anything about the taxes
which would be necessary to pay
farmers who sold their perish
ables att prevailing market pri
ces lower than foxed standards.
“Yet those taxes will have to |
be paid by the farmers and the;
consumers,” Taft said.
