D. c. AIRPORT BILL
DELAYED IN HOUSE
Long Deferred Legislation
Awaits Receipt of Hear
ing transcripts.

Airport legislation for Washington
struck another snag today when the
House District Committee, scheduled
to consider the 9-year-old problem
at its regular weekly meeting. delayed
action on the matter indefinitely.
The committee is awaiting receipt
of printed copies of testimony and
briefs submitted to its subcommittee
on parks and Fairgrounds during
many weeks of exhaustive hearings on
the bill.
1t is hoped that the airport tran
scripts may be received in time for
final committee action before the next
District day. Chairman Norton said
today a special committee meeting
will be called for consideration of the
airport measure as soon as the tran
script Is received. She has not been
informed when the Government Print
ing Office will deliver the record of the
subcommittee hearings.
Senator Gibson, Republican, of Ver-
mont, author of pending Senate bill
providing for establishment of an air.
port on the Gravelly Point site. hopes
to have Senate action on his bill ini-
tiated this week He said he does
not believe long hearings will be re-
quired in view Of the elaborate studies
made in the past by the Senate Dis
trict Committee and by a special joint
congressional airport commission head
ed by former Senator Bingham of
Connecticut.
The Gibson bill, however, is in di-
-
House Subcommittee and its recon-
mended bill. A new bill by Repre-
sentative Smith of Virginia is similar
in its major provisions to the Gibson
bill, and Smith will ask the House
District Committee to adopt this new
bill in lieu of the subcommittee bill.

AND UNTO HIM \ SON WAS BORN

The spirit of Yuletide, ages old in years, and the early expression of mans worship of the birth of a Savior, comes to Nome fol- lowing a year of toll, heart breaks, joys and progress.
 The period in which the birth of Jesus Christ is Wor shipped by Christian na- tons the world over, has once more rolled around and Nome and it's people lay aside their tasks of everyday life and stop to remember the story of the Bible and it's teachings of Christianity.
 The Three Wisemen, the Shepherd, the Star point ing the way, and Mary and the Infant at the manager crib, are all important to people in their observance of Christmas.
 Community effort has cen tered for the past few days in fostering the Yuletide spirit. Observances for the children of Nome have been concluded-churches of the city have rendered their religious observances-and now the people of Nome prepare for tomorrow's ob- servance in their homes and at other private places.
 Christmas is Worshipped in many different countries and in many different ways In Nome our people, who, in the minds of manypeople in the States and elsewhere live precarious lives and have not the comforts of
The Nome daily nugget., 1935-12-24

which modern day lives are led, are really as serious and thankful of the bene- ficence of the Lord in send ing the Savior to this earth to help mankind.
 The worship of the birth of Jesus Christ requires no introduction nor i5 it re- stri"ted to class, religion, money or power. .Mona'chs, poor people, middle class and races of mankind have but one thought when their heads are bowed in prayer, and so Nome tonight and to morrow observes Christ mas Day Tn company With the rest of the Christian world, much in the same manner, and certainly in the same belief, that God in his infinite wisdom, had a noble purpose in sending His Son to this earth, in try ing to bring understanding to a deserving mankind.

Thanks Expressed For Services Over
 Community Xanlas

Christmas Eve, on behalf of over one hundred indi- viduals, Mesdames Leroy Sullivan and J. H. s. Mori- son represented SantaClaus at the Federated church par sonage. The Reverend Nor man and Mrs. McCay were the recipients of a token of sincere appreciation of their ministry in Nome, costly in the materials used but more costly in a wealth of skillful labor covering months of effort. Deeply moved by the motive back of the gift, MT. and Mrs. McCay desire to extend their thanks through "The Nugget" May each donor, and every person in Nome, accept this courtesy of "the Nugget" as a sincere wish of The McCay's that each may have a Very Merry Christmas and the continu- ing and perpetual blessing of God.

Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE w. sPROWLS
Egotism.

66Vt1oms
A RE you egotistic? Are you loaded
with egotism? If so, what does
1t mean? Somehow, egotism has come
to have sort of compromising mean
ing. 1t is supposed to be something
that you should eliminate from your
system Of habits-if you can.
But popular notions are not always
correct. There's virtue in egotism.
Egotism carries a certain amount of
potential power with 1t. And this
power produces action. And action,
good or bad, is certainly worth more
than inaction
| For one thing, the egotistical per-
sonality will fight difficulties, while
the non-egotistical will give up. When
your egotism gives out, your person.
ality goes with it.
There is a trait called grit" Wher-
ever you find 1t, you find fighting quail
tiles. Sometimes imagine that grit
is an inStinct-an Unborn trait. As
such, it provides its carrier with q
certain amount of stubbornness in the
face of conflicting issues, which means
success in the long run.
Then there's the old question of
emotional tension" which some psy-
biologists say is the tap-root of the
mind. 1t means simply the ability to
hold yourself together. Those who
have it are generally prepared in ad-
vance for the emergencies of this
grand fight called living. Those who
are short on emotional tension" tend
to go to pieces whenever the going Is
difficult.

RIVAL BLONDE
T0FACE QUIZ
IN Staying

NEW YORK, Nov. 16 Q.N.SJ,
The rival blonde" who went to q
midtown hoted with DR.. Fritz Geb
hardt on the night of Nov 1910
hours before he was slain by Vera
Stretz-was to tell police her own
story of the tragedy's prelude here
today.
Although keeping her identity a
secret, police indicated she was a
respected WestcheSter matron and
possibly the same woman whose
passage DR.. Gebhardt had paid on
the trip back from Germany
aboard the Europa.
With Miss Stretz under indict-
ment for murder in the first de-
gree, the "other woman" entered
the picture again with the d1Scov-
cry of a torn hotel receipt showing
Gebhardt had paid for two ad-
joining rooms in the hotel last
Sunday night.
Shooting Admitted
Meanwhile, Miss Stretz, it was
said, has admitted the shooting,
but according to her attorney,
Samuel Leibowitz, for an entirely
different motive than that ad-
vanced by the police.
Police believe it was fierce
jealousy, but the quiet secretary,
who is said to be suffering from
tonsilitiS and shock in the hos
pital ward Of the woman's deten-
tion prison, describes a different
Scene-a woman shooting in blind
resentment over brutality.
Leibowitz said Gebhardt kicked
her repeatedly in the stomach
until, in fearful rage, she opened
fire and killed him with a gun
she had originally carried to COM
init suicide before his eyes.
Theory of Police
Discovery of the hotel receipt,
however, clinched police in their
belief jealousy had been the
motive.
Miss Stretz, they believe, had
trailed Gebhardt and the rival
blonde" to the hotel Sunday
night. But she missed them. The
next night, detectives say, she
Stormed into Gebhardt's room in
the Beekman Towers.
Here she found the receipt. Rip
ping it up, she threw the frag-
mentS in his face. Then she
pulled the gun from her handbag
and shot him twice in the chest.
AS he spun around she fired two
more bullets, one of which hit
in the back and the other struck
the left arm.

IF I were a citizen Of the
State of Nebraska, regardless of
what party belong to. l would
not allow George Norris to retire
from the United States Senate
whether he wanted to or not and
for a very good reason. I think
Senator Norris is necessary not

TO RULE FATE
OF BRITAIN

LONDON, Nov. 16 G.NS).-En.
glacd has returned to the two

came evident today as returns
from Thursdays general election
were completed.
While energetic attempts will be
made to give the cabinet the ap-
pearance of a national" or in

lands next government will actu-
ally be a Tory one faced with sub
stantial Labor opposition.
In this respect the political fate
Of Ramsay Macdonald, twice

more than sentimental interest
In fact his future is the liveSt
poSt-eleCtion topic under discus

aid in the cabinet the government
certainly will have no appearance
of a coalition between Conserva-
tives and LaboriteS.
Macdonald, beaten and bitter,
termed it "a filthy election" and
seemed determined to retire from
politics.
His son, Malcolm Macdonald,
dominions secretary, certainly will
get a seat in the new cabinet
through a by-election in a safe"
riding to keep up the appearance
Of a national" government.
Sir John Simon will represent
only 81 Liberal followers in the
new cabinet. Aggressive Labor op-
position and time may merge
them indistinguiShably in the
Conservative majority.
Sir Herbert Samuel Loses
The two party picture was
made more clear cut by the de-
feat of Sir Herbert Samuel and
the reduction of his opposition
Liberal following to Is.
The Lloyd George family Lib
eral party Of four members will
hardly interfere with the resump-
ton Of the two party scheme.
The real lineup in the next
Commons will be some 381 Con-
servativeS VS.. 153 LaboriteS. each
party with minor allies which do
not change their relative strength.

K. C.ANSWERED
BY PRESIDENT

The White House announced
yesterday that President Roose-
welt had sent a reply to the
letter Of Michael H. Carmody, su-
preme knight of the Knights of
Columbus, which had criticized
the Chief Executive for not def
nitely censuring Mexico for its al
legged persecution of Catholics.
The Presidents reply went
forward several days ago and
presumably now is in the hands
of Carmody at his New Haven,
Conn, headquarters.
In conformance with White
House custom, the presidential
letter was not made public-al-
though it was indicated there
would be no objection if Carmody
desired to make it public.
