Nome Weather Is
Unusually Mild
This Time Year
Mild temperatures and rainy
weather with occasionally
mixed snow and rain were re
corded over Sunday and to
day at the local weather bur
eau office, according to Assist
ant Meteorologist Hayward.
These conditions are excep
tional for late October. The
approach of a low barometer
ic pressure area was respons
ible for the balmy spell.
Nome temperatures ranged
between 33 and 38 degrees
above while moderate to str
ong southerly and southeast
erly winds prevailed.
Precipitation in form of rain
and melted snow measured
2.5 inches at noon today for
the monthly total so far. This
is over an inch more than oc
curred in any previous Octo
ber. The total precipitation
for the twenty-four hours end
ing at noon today was .78 ins.
Airplane traffic was impos
sible yesterday and today.
Low ceilings and poor visi
bility with considerable snow
and fog were general condi
tions over most of the Nome
Fairbanks airway and north
ward. Nulato and Kaltag re
ported seven inches of snow
on the ground while Fair
banks measured twelve inch
es. Temperatures, as a rule,
were higher at most airway
stations during the past 24
hours.
Governor of Ohio
To Reform State
Highway Comm.
(By The Associated Press)
Columbus, Oct. 28, — Gov

that the state highway com
mission “was in a state of in
surrection” and ordered na
tional guard machine gunners

their offices.
He named a board to sup
ervise the affairs of the com
mission and further ordered
the removal from office of all
commissioners, including the
chief commissioner, Ben M.
Sayer, on whose regime block
attacks by the governor have
been made since long before
election.

American Liberty
League Slams The
Matanuska Colony
Continued From Page One
that the project “might be
considered comic if it were
not so tragic in the lives of
many people.”
The League quoted Rex
Beach as saying that only 50
families out of four hundred
would remain permanently,
and that the colony would
cost five million instead of one
million and a quarter dollars.
“Just why the new Pilgrim
Fathers should be sent to re
mote Alaska when there is
an abundance of idle farm
land nearer home where cli
matic conditions are more
favorable, is one of the mys
teries of economic planning,”
the League added.
NOTICE

ber first, consequently I am
