Housing Corporation Funds May Be Supplied for
 Fire Victims

WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.-Sec- retary of Interior Ickes told re- porters that the PWA is to con- sider whether homes destroyed in the fire at Nome could be rebuilt through the Public Works Housing Corporation.
 While asserting he saw possi- bility of extending the housing as- sistance, Secretary Ickes would not commit himself definitely.
 Gov John w. Troy, of Alaska, Secretary Ickes said, has asked especially that the PWA aid in re- building the Federal buildings, but the Secretary said he did not know whether such construction would be justified and that he had not consulted other interested Gov ernment Departments.
 Secretary Ickes said he had re- ceived telegram from c. c. Gar land, Chairman of the Alaska De- velopment Committee of the Ta- coma Chamber of Commerce, re- questing that one million dollars be allotted for the buying of sup plies for Nome. The Secretary said this could not be done out of the Public Works funds.

 T didn't do it"

 There is no doubt in my mind her death was accidental, caused by electrocution during x-ray treat ment on table"
