LET US NOT FORGET A CRoSs-RUNWAY

Nome. without doubt has one of the finest airfeds in the territory now that maintenance work has placed 1t in condition for the traffic There is only one distinct disadvantage to and that s it is only single runway pointing approximately North and South It's width is something 200 feet and its length is than 4400 feet.
 Cross winds blowing during the summer time make it exceedingly dangerous for presenday high speed passenger and freight planes land take off from the Nome airport. Repeated efforts the part of aviation concerns individuals and public organza- tions have far proved frutless to obtain way. However, the subject is not dead one. Nome is in actual need of kind of cross field Several accidents due winds have occurred various times during the past winter and spring.
 Aviation men suggest that the type of way needed is which would form the letter K" In that way much of the present runway could be ut zed in the cross-feld They all admit that way would not have to be very long, but between 800 and 1000 feet from one end to the other including part of the present field
 The present field is sufficiently long so that even round -the-World fiers heavily loaded with gasoline could take off from it, with favorable wind.
 What should be of grave importance to Nome and the Territory whole, is the steady advance of mercal and territorial aviation, and the supplying of safe advantages and facilities to the planes which op- crate from the field every day of the year.
 We don't believe the matter should be allowed to remain idle any longer-unt serious crash or acci- dent might result in death passengers-before any, thing is done to install such runway. Now is the time to work for that necessary feature to safe and sane flying in the North.

MRS. FOX URGES SUPPORT
 FOR DRIVE AGAINST T.B

As has been reported, many of the local residents have already re- sponded to the call for the purchase of Christmas seals in the cause of aiding the national drive against tuberculosis. Quite a few however, have not been heard from, accord ing to Mrs. c. A. Fox, chairman of the drive in Douglas.
 Quoting Mrs. Fox, "The cost is one cent per seal and if a family cannot buy 100 seals, they are well come to buy whatever they can af- ford. It will show that they are in sympathy with the investigations and examinations conducted by the Tuberculosis Association and are doing some bit toward stamp ing out the disease.
 Remember that no child is safe as long as there is an infected child in the community.

GROUP OPPOSES
EXCESS TAXATION
Funds Urged by Northeast
Citizens Association to
Aid Emp|oyabIes.

Emphatic opposition to any legisla.
ton raising taxes Of District residents
In excess OF budget requirements was
recorded by the Northeast Citizens
Association, meeting last night, In
Ludlow School.
President Evan H. Tucker, in urging
members to adopt 4 resolution to be
placed before the District Commits
sioners and the committees OF both
Houses, termed such legislation "dou-
bic taxation" Speaking Of the in
tangible personal property tax, he
said:
THAT is not legislation. It Is fore
Ing something on U.s."
In the interest Of some 5000 EN-
ployables" in Washington who are not
eligible for relief, it was resolved to
petition the Commissioners and con-
gressional committees for deficiency
appropriation Of at least 100000 per
month for the remainder of the fiscal
year to be administered through the
Board Of Public Welfare. An addi-
tional appropriation Of 100000 Was
also recommended.
Considering other bills before Con-
gress the association opposed increase
in gasoline fuel tax, tax on transfer
OF estates of decedents and taxing
insurance companies. The associa-
ton approved a tax on parking lots,
establish small claims court and
taxing corporations doing business in
the District.
A bill to tax incomes Of District
residents was approved with the
amendment that all provisions Of the
law relating to the taxing Of tangible
and Intangible personal property be
repealed.
