MASS MEETING
WILL CONSIDER
FLU SITUATION

As there would appear to be less
necessity now for maintaining a
strict quarantine against Fairbanks,
than existed before, and in view
of the fact that there is some dis
satisfaction among some of the
townspeople regarding the quaran-
tine, it has been decided to call a
mass meeting for tonight.
At the meeting, the people of
Nenana will be given the oppor-
tunity to decide on whether the
quarantine established against Fair
banks, to which they unanimously
assented at a previous meeting, is to
be continued or lifted.
The mass meeting will be held
! tonight at the Coliseum, immme-
diately after the picture show, and
it is hoped that everybody that
can possibly do so will attend.
Briefly the history of the quaran
tine movement against the world is
as follows: Reports received re-
gardlng the ravages of the disease
ION the coast and the danger of its
possible spread to the Interior
aroused Nenanaites to sense of
the impending danger and on Sun
day, November 8, mass meeting
was held at the Coliseum. At the
request of several prominent Ne
nanaites, Mr.. F. D. Browne was in
duced to act as spokesman at the
meeting. He explained the situation
and suggested measures. explaining
that any. action. to quarantine
Nenana must be ratified or en-
dorsed by the people of the town.
AT the meeting DR.. More, Commits
sioner Mcdonald and Herman Ander-
son spoke in support of Mr.. Brownies
plans. The people, by rising vote,
agreed to the adoption of the meas
ures outlined.
On November 4th meeting of
the peoples representatives was held
at the townsite office, those present
being Messrs Mcdonald, Browne, |
Joseph, Hagan, DR.. More and the
Nenana advisory board Mr.. Browne,
who was elected chairman, talked
over the phone with the mayor of
Fairbanks and DR.. Sutherland re-
garding the quarantine measures
taken by Fairbanks. A wire was
also sent to Governor Riggs and the
question of quarantine against Fair
banks was held over, pending re-
ceipt of reply, which if favorable,
would obviate the necessity for a
local quarantine
On November the committee
formed after the first mass meet
ing met again with the local board |
of health. Governor Riggs reply
to the Nenana telegram indicating
the quarantine and expenses of same
was purely local matter, was read
and after some discussion it was
agreed to establish a local quar-
antine. The legal power for such
action being vested with the Health
Board the matter was referred to
that body, who after due delibera-
ton, recommended that strict quar-
antine be established. The peoples
committee, on the motion of Mr..
Mcdonald, seconded by Mr.. Hagan,
approved the action of the board.
A mass meeting was then called
for the night of November z, at
which the action of the health board
and the peoples committee was
made clear to those present and |
tAsg were called upon to ratify the
