CITY COUNCIL
The Nome City Council met last
Monday and discussed increasing
the liability insurance on their
motorized equipment.
Capt. Calvin McKay, command
ing officer of MAFB, was a guest
of the Council and discussed the
problem of soldiers who are un
der age being allowed in the bars.
He asked for leniency in the
matter, as although it was not
legal according to territorial law,
the military were not opposed to
these under-age soldiers being
permitted to drink in the bars.
The Council recommended that
,the M. P.’s be responsiblt for
these men.

Increase In
Postal Rates
WASHINGTON, (/P)—President
Truman told his congressional
leaders he is sending Congress a
message this week recommending
increases in Second Class postal
rates. *
j Second Class mail covers the
publication field—such as daily
and weekly newspapers and pnag
azines.
House speaker Rayburn (D -
Tex.) and other congressional
leaders who met with Mr. Truman
at the White House declined to
discuss details of the President’s
message, which he expects to send
to both Houses by Thursday.
Rayburn told deporters he did
not believe the draft of the mess
age has been completed.
Postmaster General Donaldson
has been urging an increase in
! postal rates, including Second
! Class, for more than a year to
help offset a deficit in the post
office departments’s operations.

Will Continue
Freeze On
Auto Prices
WASHINGTON, (IP) — Officials
of the office cff Price Stabilization
(OPS) said today they plan to ex
tend the auto'price freeze, which
otherwise would expire March 1.
The manufacturers’ prices of
new cars now are frozen at the
levels of last Dec. 1. The order
was issued in mid-December and
was the first price control order
by the OPS.
Officials said the order may be
extended to April 1 to give them
time to work out new regulations
for manufacturers of all kinds.
For the last two months the
OPS has been working on a revi
sion of the auto price freeze that
would permit the manufacturers
—in some cases at least—to raise
prices to help compensate for
higher costs of production.
I
al group at the White House was
the last before Mr. Truman leaves
Friday for a vacation at Key
West, Fla.
