BOY SCOUTS PUTTING
UP HOUSE NUMBERS
The Boy Scouts of Troop 666,
is busily engaged in putting up
the house numbers on the houses
in the city. Mr. Baker, the scout
master asks that people not be
frightened if they hear some un
expected pounding on the front of
their house.
When the numbers are all com
pletely installed Nome will be a
very much easier place to find
one’s way around. Last year the
Scouts made and installed the
street signs. It has been a very
well worth-while project for the
Boy Scouts.

GIRL SCOUT TROOP •
ENTERTAINS MOTHERS
Mothers of the girls in Scout
■ Troop Number J, Nome, Alaska,
were given an opportunity yester
day to observe a phase of the
Scouting program at work. The
girls entertained their mothers
with an original program planned
and executed entirely by the
troop.
The troop members met their
guests with much poise and dem
onstrated throughout the program
hat they were learning to work
' together as a group, thus learning
i and practicing democracy. This
group is emerging as young citi
zens capable of taking a respected
place in our community.
i the manner in vvnicn tnese giris
j presented their program yester
i day reflects the fine training and
leadership given them by Mrs.
Nell Muncy. She has been their
leader since 1945 and has given
tirelessly of her energies and
| heart to bring Scouting to Nome
girls. The scouts and parents sin
cerely appreciate her co-operation
and services, but no reward or i
! thanks can equal the development)
or character, self-reliance and'
conduct she has seen unfolding in
these girls under her guidance.
June Dunbar received the guests
by presenting each of them with a
; lovely fresh carnation. Jerry Fa
I gerstrom welcomed the mothers
with a few appropriate words, fol
lowed by the reading of a poem by
Tess Bronson and a song by Bun
ny Fogerstrom, June Dunbar, Kit
ty B.iornstad and Lois Swanberg.
Margie Steinwandel and Maurine
Hudert presented an amusing bit
of magic which baffled their audi
ence. A clever dance was given
by Donna and Alice Miller, fol-1
lowed by a reading by Donna
Travis.
The highlight of the afternoon
was a fashion show by the troop
with Bonnie Dunbar as commen-!
tator. Tea and cookies were
served.
Mrs. Paul Mandeville is taking
over the troop and plans to work
with them for the coming year.

Labor Bill Is I
Near Passage
WASHINGTON, (/P) — Senator
Taft <R.-Ohio> today dug to a
hope the Senate can reach a final
vote on labor legislation, includ
ing a brand new bill fashioned by
Democrats to win President Tru
man’s approval.
The new measure is sponsored
by Senator Murray (D.-Mont.>
and 10 other Democrats. He offer
ed it at a Senate session Saturday
as a substitute for the more strin
gent labor disputes bill backed by
Taft, chairman of the Senate la
bor committee.
Murray, a leader of the thus far
unsuccessful fight against the Taft
bill, told the Senate the new mea
sure carries out “all the recom
mendations” of Mr. Truman on
labor legislation, and covers some |
other matters as well. It is con
siderably milder than the com
mittee bill which several Demo
crats have predicted the President
would veto.
Introduction of the Murray bill
brought an angry protest from
Taft, who accused its sponsors of
“completely dilatory” tactics in
waiting through 11 days of Senate
debate on labor legislation to in
troduce the measure.
The Senate took this action on
major amendments to the Taft
bill:
1. Defeated, 62 to 28, a proposal
by Senator Ball <R.-Minn.> to let
private employers seek injunctions
against jurisdictional strikes and
secondary boycotts.
2. Adopted, 62 to 26, a Taft
backed proposal allowing em
ployers to sue unions for dam
ages resulting from jurisdictional
strikes and secondary boycotts.
<A secondary boycott is a union
attempt to hit indirectly at an
employer by forcing other employ
ers to quit dealing with him. The
most common type of jurisdicion
al strike stems from a dispute be
tween unions as to which should
do certain work>.
