CITY BONDING ELECTION APPROVED
The accord with which the qualified voters of the City
of Nome approved the City Bonding Issue, was clearly
shown in the returns of yesterday’s election. Less than ten
percent of disapproval was voiced according to the vote,
signifying the opinion that Nome is practically wholeheart
ed in its purpose of carrying out rehabilitation projects out
lined last fall.
Now that the returns have been wired to Washington
D. C.. it is to be hoped that speedy results will follow, and
that the actual program of putting men to vvork to rehabili
tate functions of the city government destroyed in the dis
astrous fire of last September, will commence at an early
date.
GIVE US THE TIPS ON NEWS
There is nothing gladdens the heart of the small town
newspaper editor more than to have so much copy on hand
that from the time he starts in the morning until the “dead
line" later in the day he works himself into a frenzy to get it
written and on the "hook” for the linotype man to transform
into type.
The editor is the happiest when he can buzz the tele
phone an average of six times every fifteen minutes during
the day, running down “hot" tips, or when he has to dash
madly down the street to get a confirmation from Mr. Sq
and-So about this or that. He likes to pound his 9-year-old
typewriter until it is ready to cry out from sheer exhaustion
of its Happy old joints. He likes to glance into the “back
shop” and see his linotype operator "hang” the machine time
after time in order to keep up with his enthusiastic effusions.
He likes this because he knows that at the end of the
day when the paper is finally out it will be full of good, live
news that his subscribers will like to read.
And so we ask you to GIVE US THE LOCAL NEWS.
At least give us A TIP. The Nugget attempts to cover its
field thoroly each day and it is our belief that it does. How
ever,there are little items that are bound to escape and that
is where you come in. Just call up or mention it to one of
the staff. Don’t hold out something because you think it
may not be interesting or because you think it shouldn’t go
in the paper. Let the editor decide that.
Confide in the editor, tell him all of the facts. Don’t
hold out on him when he asks you for information.
Your newspaper reflects the nature of the town you
live in. Help it live up to its task.

Reindeer Service
Are Made Public
-
In an interview with the Sup-,
erintendent of the U. S. Reindeer
Service, Lyman S. Brewster, the
following information has been se
cured.
Local inquiries and comments
about the Reindeer Service indicate
that little is known of its general
functions. Many persons still think
that the Reindeer Service is a bran-1
ch of the Office of Indian Affairs. I
This is not the case. In 1929 the
Reindeer Service was definitely dis
connected from the Office of Indian^
Affairs, and was made a separate!
Service under the Department of'
the Interior. The General Reindeer
Superintendent is directly respon
sible to the Governor of Alaska.
Under supervision of the General
Reindeer Superintendent are five
Unit Managers and forty-four rein
deer stations The Local Reindeer
Superintendents at these stations;
' are the Office of Indian Affairs
t eachers. The teachers represent
both branches of Government ser
vice to the Eskimos; but their rein
deer reports go directly to the Rein
deer Service, which, in turn, super
vises the reindeer activities, apart
from the Office of Indian Affairs
organization. Administration of
each service is entirely separate
from the other; separate appropria
tions are made, and accounts kept
separately, However, the purposes
of the two services naturally require
cooperation.
The Reindeer Service, as a func
tion of the Department of the Inter
ior, is in frequent communication
with the Department officials in
Washington, and constantly in con
tact with the Office of the Governor.
Activities Of The Service
Among the activities of the Rein-,
deer Service are: Recommendations
as to legislation and appropriations;
compilation of [range rules and re
gulations; interpretation of laws; 1
distribution of reindeer estates of (
deceased natives; settlement of •
claims; approval of expenditures;
accounting for all expenditures from
the Reindeer Appropriation; requis
itioning of equipment for local rein
deer stations and Unit Managers'
headquarters; distributing supplies
to the field; keeping records of all
transactions relating to the handl
ing, butchering, sale, and use of
reindeer owned by natives and oth
ers; clearing accounts between herds
and between Units; supervising
handlings, markings and butcher
ings; issuing permits for range
butcherings; establishing new herds;
and acting in general advisory capa
city to the natives or native com
panies in all reindeer matters.
The staff of the Reindeer Service
is composed of college-trained per
sons, with experience and specific
training for their respective duties.
Excellent cooperation exists between
ill members, and personal differen
ces of opinion do not interfere with
carrying on the activities of the
service.
The Central office at Nome reeei
/es annua' and monthly and mark
ng reports from local stations in all
jarts of the reindeer areas of the
rerritory. Unit Managers submit
weekly reports of their activities.
Circular letters go out to the forty
'our reindeer stations, and these are
supplemented frequently by direct
:orrespondence regarding individual
jroblems. Over three thousand com
nunications come and go through
;he General Office annually, many
iignifying activity in the field, or
nvolving research of records, ad
ustments of plans, and necessitat
ng conferences.
A citizen of Nome recently voiced
lis supposition that the Reindeer
3ffice had only local responsibilities
for the local herd, or for any other
ndividual reindeer station, are con
siderably less than one-fiftieth of
the entire interests of the United
States Reindeer Service. Locally
the effectiveness of the Service is
Tampered by the non-cooperative
attitude of owners, but this situation
is not typical. Herds range from
Barrow to the Alaska Peninsula,and
n areas where the largest herds are
Tandled, owners cooperate with local
and unit supervisors to the benefit
jf the herds and to the advantage of
all the owners.
The foregoing summary "is pre
jared for public information, with
he hope that Nome people may
;ain an improved comprehension of
his Federal agency with headquar
ers in Nome.
