NOME COUNCIL
HOLDS SESSION
LAST EVENING
The Common Council of the City
of Nome, met in regular session last
night with all councilmen present
except Ed. Seidenverg. Several mat
ters of business pertaining to the
new, official map of Nome were dis
posed of, following the reading of
the minutes of the last meeting.
All bills and claims against the
city, approved by the Finance Com
mittee, were, upon motion passed,
and ordered paid. .Communications
were read from several parties wish
ing to purchase lots, and postponed
until their proper place in the order
of business.
Three lots along the road near the
Hammon Company office were sold
to the Hammon Consolidated Gold
Fields for the sum of $50.00.
Mr. Crow offered $15.00 for a lot
on the becah side of Front St. near
the Standard Oil warehouse. The
offer was accepted by the council.
Mr. Paskao offered $15.00 for a lot
on Belmont Point, whcih upon the
passage of a motion by the council,
was accepted.
The application by the Nome Har
bor Lighterage Co. for the use of
part of the city dock and ware
house was referred back to them
for a more specific request and/ac
count.
Under the head of new business,
the Council took up the question of
a proposed Public Works Adminis
tration application for a loan. Re
ceived by plane yesterday was a
copy of the application filled out by
the City of Fairbanks in securing
their PWA loan.
Upon investigation it was disclos
ed that the most efficient and sat
isfactory method was to appoint the
Finance Committee of the Council
to determine if a loan should be re
quested and of what amount, to
gether with the listing of the diff
erent projects and their probable
cost. The Mayor appointed this com
mittee to investigate into these mat
ters immediately and bring in a
working proposal which could be
considered by the council. The
committee immediately set to work,
last evening, being cooperated with
by B. D. Stewart, Territorial Mining
Engineer who was assigned to this
city following the fire, and Lyman
S. Brewster, Vice-Chairman of the
Nome Committee of th»e Federal Em
ergency Relief Administration.
The filling out of such application
was discussed some time past and
requires considerable work. The
committee is expected to report as
soon as they have a definite pro
gram laid out.
The matter of spending the $100.
00 cash received by the Nome Fire
Department from the Ketchikan
Volunteer Fire Dept., was brought
before the council by Chief Yenney,
but was referred directly to the
fire Committee of the Council,
which is considering the purchase
of beds for the new fire hall, which
Chief Yenney reported would be
ready for occupancy today.
There being no further details of
business to come up at this time,
the meeting was adjourned to meet
again at .the call of the Mayor or
in regular session, namely, the sec
ond Monday in December.

tributed this month under the date
line of November 23rd, 1934.

entirely executed by ents of
the high school, very
creditable and typifies the energetic
and aspiring characterises of our
school children.
On page one, “The North Star”
has written an editorial entitled:!
“Policy of The North Star,” as fol-l
“This year the policy of editing
the “North Star” has been greatly
changed. In previous years it has
been customary to publish the pa
per semi-annually, advertise, solic
it subscriptions, and charge ten
cents a copy. This year a new plan
has been inaugurated. It is publish
ed monthly by the English IV Class.
Each member of the Associated Stu
dent Body is given a paper. For
thdse individuals who do not belong
to the organization a subscription
rate of fifty cents a year hats been
deemed a fitting price for the paper.
“It is hoped that the paper may
prove beneficial to the students and
of interest to all those concerned
with school activities.”
The staff is composed of the fol
lowing persons: Editor in Chief,
James Walsh; Assistant Editdr Eve
lyn Wallace; Business Manager Al
vhild UfriehsCn; Feature Editor
Virginia Harper; Exchange Manag
er Walter Slack; Typist, Dorothy

We wish them all success in their
lives as publishers of “The North
Star,” and will await anxiously for
the next issue.
