LOCAL NEWS
A telegram received today by Mrs.
Richard Lee conveyed the sad news
of the death of her mother, Mrs.
Margaret Blum at Seattle, this
morning. Mrs. Blum had been ill
from cancer for some time and ev
erything possible was done to re
lieve her. She was well known to
many Nomeites all of whom extend
their sympathy to the relatives in
this their hour of sorrow and be
reavement.
Further evidences that the “Hard
Times" dance tomorrow evening at
the Nevada Hall is going to be a suc
cess, were apparent today as numer
ous people commenced working out
ideas for “tough” apparel.
In many instances, it is presumed,
those who plan on attending this
dance, will undoubtedly attire them
selves in several varieties of freakish
costumes, and this is exactly what
is desired, was the wish of the com
mittee in charge of the dance.
Remember the time. 9:30 p.m. to
morrow night at the Nevada Hall:
admission gentlemen one dollar and
ladies free.
The can containing guesses on the
time when the ice will move at Ne
nana this year will be closed, accord
ing to reports, at noon Saturday, to
morrow.
Information obtained stated that
there are 3375 guesses made on the
time when the ice will go. Guesses
sold for $1.00 each so considerable
money is included in this annual
guessing contest.
It is believed, some authorities
state, that persons may still have
some tickets which they have not
deposited in the guessing can. They
should get their guesses in that can
before noon tomorrow. According
to the warm weather which is being
experienced all over Alaska, the pio
neer sages contend the ice is going
to move out early, but your guess is
as good as ours.

Vice Chmn. Nome Relief Committee
JUNEAU, Alaska, April 1
BREWSTER, Nome
The Governor agrees that it would
be valuable to make survey of skill-'
ed and unskilled labor available in
your section for the information of
transportation companies and other
persons interested in next summer's
activities.
HARRY WATSON. Secty.
General discussion concerning the
labor situation seemed to indicate
that Nome contained ample labor to
care for building necessities this
summer, if, according to estimates,
the federal building was not put
through this year, or the Nome PWA
loan and grant.
Chairman Swartz appointed a
committee consisting of Rev. Nor
man McCay, Andrew Sather and V.
R. Farrell to set up a system of reg
istration and have all skilled and
unskilled labor register so that a
count could be obtained and work
estimated, allowing for a determin
ation of the situation.
It was decided that the city would
employ a person to take care of reg
istration and that the place of reg
istration would be at the Fire Hall.
The time set for registration has
not yet been set but within a few
days the blanks and everything are
expected to be ready. The ques
tion of the restricted housing condi
tions in Nome at the present time
was brought up, and it was gener
ally admitted that this situation
would be a serious one when the
first boats arrive. Steps are to be
taken soon in regard to planning
some means of caring for the two
or three hundred people who will
arrive on the first boats and who
have no place to stay.
The meeting adjourned after
thoroughly discussing the situation
with the purpose of immediately
placing in motion the program of ob
taining a census of all labor in
Nome.
