ARMY FLIGHT TO NOMK
FROM FAIRBANKS
Agreeable news. The ten Army
bombing planes which arrived at
Fairbanks yesterday from Washing
ton, I). C.. plan on making a flight
to Siberia if permission can bo
obtained from the War Depart
ment,
In any event they are to come
to Nome to operate for a few
days over Seward Peninsula, They
bave made record time. The
•gnadron left Washington for
Fairbanks July 19th, and arrived
on the 24th. only a matter of
«v« days; but five days of long
tiresome flying; flying against con
dttlons of weather and country
never before experienced by those
pilots.
The completion of their object
ive in a mass flight apparently
proves that such a move Is entire
ly possible and practical in time
of emergency. Time magazine
carried an article concerning the
proposed flight of the ten Martin
bombers stating that it was to he
a test of equipment and personnel
and if such a military move was
; plausible when an emergency
might demand the transfer of a
huge force to the remote corners
of the territory of the United Sta
tes.
Since the arrival of the planes
'at Fairbanks. Lieut. Col. Arnold,
Squadron Comander, announced a
plan for carrying a good-will
flight into Siberia, is sanctioned
by the War Department. Another
statement by him outlined the
proposed activities of the squad
ron dnrlng its three-weeks’ stay
in Alaska. Evidently considerable
photographic work and other mil
itary maneuvers will be carried on
as soon as the personnel gets
straightened around in Fairbanks.

NO ll)LE DREAM
To say the development of a
city revolves around a civic spirit
is no idle dream.
The civic spirit is a part of the
city and it is up to every one of
them to display patriotism. The
future growth of the city depends
entirely on the part its citizens
play in every-day life.
A high spirit of loyalty must be
developed and maintained. Co
operation among citizens for the
benefit of the home city is what
makes cities grow.
Royalty of the citizens is the
determining factor in expansion
and development.
Every dollars earned In the
home city should be spent in the
home city so it will circulate for
the good of all.
Every dollar earned in the
* I
community weakens the resources
of the bome city .and helps only
the city in which it is spent.
The man who profits moat is the
man who spends his dollars at
home.
Now is the time to make a good
resolution. If you have been
sending your money away from
home to buy goods that can be
bought in your home city, resolve
that in the future you will spend
every dollar at home!—Fairbanks
News-Miner.

lar is worth 1-6932 new gold dol
lars. Thus, any sum expressed in
terms of old dollars can be con
verted into new dollars by add
ing 69.32 per cent. The follow
ing table la based upon the Presi
dent's proclamation of Jan. 31,
1934:
Gross weight of old
