‘‘Butcher Of
1 .idice” Hanged
PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia, (/P)
Col. Gen. Kurt Daluege, “The
Butcher of Lidice,” was hanged
today in the courtyard of Pankrac
prison three hours after he was
convicted of war crimes by a
Czechoslovak people’s court.
A last minute attempt to smug
gle poison into his cell was foiled.
The poison was discovered in one
of a dozen cigarettes sent to him.
Daluege, Hitler’s last “Protector
of Bohemia and Moravia," was ac
cused of being the Nazi S.S. ‘Elite
Guard> police chief who ordered
the razing of the village of Lidice,
the slaughter of all its men and
the deportation of its women and
children.

Not So “Hot”
TOKYO, (/P)—Japanese firemen
today paraded their might and
equipment—creaky, antiquated
vehicles—and Yanks, after taking
one horrified look, rushed to
check their portable fire extin
guishers.
The occasion was fire preven
tion week and the parade was led
by General MacArthur’s fire mar
shal in a scarlet jeep.
Japanese fire-fighting equip
ment in this city of 4,000,000
would seem inadequate in com
parison with that of small Ameri
can towns.
Tokyo residents say, and with a
straight face, that during the
great B-29 raids, when the town
was crackling with conflagrations,
the city’s firefighters leaped on
their trucks and drove to safe
zones to save their equipment.
Firemen deluged their station
houses with all available water,
while flames consumed every
thing combustible around them.
GRAVESIDE CEREMONY FOR
SEDIENVERG CHILDREN
A private graveside ceremony
was held yesterday for the three
Seidenverg children. All Nome
grieves with the stricken family
in their sorrow.
Mr. and Mrs. Seidenverg and
daughter Ileene will leave tonight
for the States and will be missed
in the community as they were all
well liked and active in civic af
fairs.
They will be met in Seattle by
Leo Seidenverg and other rela
tives, and then plan to stay in
Portland with Sanford Seiden
verg.
Legal Blanks at The Nugget office
In the era before Alaska Airlines' big,
multi-engine Starlincrs went into service,
the task of moving a dragline to a new
location was a tremendous one, often
involving sledge, riverboats, and ship
ment Outside and back.
Now, moving day for a mine meons
hours instead of months, thanks to the
mighty carrying capacity of the Star
Kners.
Not everyone in Alaska moves mines.
But nearly all Alaskans ship something,
even if it's only a tiny packoge. And
experience has shown that shipment by
Alaska Airlines is the swiftest, surest
means of transport available.
All Stariiner? carry air-freight on sched
uled runs. Special aircraft are available
for specialized moving jobs. Contact your
nearest Alaska Airlines agent for rales.

Flashes of Life
GRAVE ERROR
DECATUR. 111. (/PI—1The dog
gone story wasn’t true, and “Inky”
proved it was a grave mistake by
missing his own funeral.
A friend telephoned Miss Max- >
ine Goveia that her black scottie
dog, “Inky” had been killed by a
car, and the friend had taken care
of burial and paid the funeral bill
at a dog cemetery.
That night, as the two women
sat in Miss Goveia’s home, “Inky”
bounded in and assured them it
was an expensive case of mistaken [
identity.
LOSING PROPOSITION

daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank!
Kolar, Jr., of Erie, Colo., asked.

they couldn't send a stamp, but,

chocolate cake.
