Jean Hersholt was the distin- guished guest speaker at our Thursday Luncheon Club on the thirty-seventh floor of the Empire State Building. No need to tell you, who know Jean Hersholt from the hundreds of roles he has played on the screen and his Dr. Christian on the radio what a grand guy he is. And he does a lot of extra scurricular work that would take up all the working hours of just an ordinary man. For one thing, Jean is the head of the Free Denmark Society of America. You know, of course, that he was born in Denmark.
 He told us some very interesting stories about the present plight of his mother-country He told us also of the true meaning of the Danish toast" "Skaal." You will recog- nize it because it is close to similar word, with slight variations in spelling, in other Scandinavian countries.
 Each letter in the word "SkuaI" means something. For instance, the Danish word for health starts with an ''s;" loue begins with 'k;;" old age with ''a;" and "a" also stands ] for-maRy talents. The Danish word for luck starts with an s'l'' as does our word. Put together, these i letters spell s-k-a-a-l SKAAL. So, when a Dane raises his glass and toasts a friend he means
 Here's to your health and
 to your love; may your old
 age be happy; may you have many talents, and
 may you have good luck"
 And so this has been a profitable day for me-I've learned some thing. And 1 did something about 1t. l raised my glass containing one of our own products forgive mel in a toast to American kids away from home ...

Lord Keynes, British financial wizard, who always takes care of the British first In his financial planning, recently termed gold, "a relic of barbarism," and Paul McNutt, head of our War Produc- ton Board, while admitting that he knew little of the intricacies of interna- tional currency, stated while in Seattle recently that he couldn't see why gold was important in the economic picture.

 Alaska Development Board
 In the preliminary investigation of the fishery resources of Bering Sea, recently undertaken by Messrs. Anderson and Carlson, the convincing testimony brought to their attention led them to con- clude the investigation in a short CT period of time than allotted to them.
 At the time they left, they promised that on arrival at their offices, they would immediately compile their report.
 On reaching the Office of the Alaska Division Board at Juneau, they furnished the office a brief of the testimony brought before them.
 On reading said brief, it is evi. dent that the conclusions and recOmmenQatlOnS Will De TOT a survey of the Boring Sea fishery resources.
 To carry out survey, it will require a proper boat with the necessary equipment to expert ment and develop the numerous species of fish of this section. It is determined that it will require three years to complete the sur vey.
 The Nome Chamber of Com merce and the Alaska Develop ment Board will ask Congress to appropriate $125,OOO for this pro- ject.

THE NOME NUGGET

DelOW the UnlteQ StdteS price O1 9S0.UU but sufficient increase to offset the difference in shipping cost and insure the gold of South and West Africa going to the British treasury rather than ours.
 Thanks to our horde of gold the Amer ican dollar still holds an enviable posi- tion in world money markets. Our dollar is solidly backed by gold and, in spite of any public utterances to the contrary, other nations are hungrily seeking gold in an effort to stabilize their currencies.
 Great as is our gold reserve, it has been steadily dwindling, and unless pro- duction is encouraged rather than pro- hibited it will continue to dwindle Many gold experts are predicting prices up to one hundred dollars per ounce for post war gold, passing their prophecy upon the terrific amount of world trade which will demand credit units backed by gold or silver, or both, which will quickly ex- haust present supplies of these metals.
 We are going to need gold and plenty of it. Not only should our gold miners be authorized to proceed with operations as rapidly as circumstances will permit, but they should have every possible govern mental encouragement by way of labor priorities which do not directly interfere with the postwar plans.
 The nation which is in a position to dictate the price of gold in the world of tomorrow is the nation which will con- trol that trade.
 The best armament any nation can have in the battle for trade, is solid currency backed by plenty of gold.

Psst!-Some stars bear scars!
 Speaking of operations is some thing that film stars seldom speak about because, well-because the luscious lassies of the cinema are just not supposed to have unsight- ly scars!
 However, most of them do have telltale marks which might help Identify them in case.
 There is, for example, the tiny mark on Bette Davis nose, the re- suit of dog bite by a strange Scotty which Bette attempted to pet Bette had a slight rough ness under one ear, also All that remains of a threatened dis figurement when the actress, as a child, was badly burned in a Christmas tree fire.
 Lauren Bacall has a very slight cut scar on her left cheek That is the result of a childish attempt to shave herself with her fathers razor when she was six year old.
 Ida Lupino, who goes comical in her film, has slight scar on her forehead near the hair line which is the only remaining sign of bad automobile accident which threatened, at a time, to mar her beauty forever.
 A foot injury, very bad cut from a piece of broken glass, has left a telltale mark on Joan Craw- ford's person.
 Shhhhhh. Don't tella soul!
 Will wonders never cease?
 We still don't believe it. But we have 1t on authority from John LeRoy Johnstone, an honest publicity man, that Orson WelleS has a double.
 He is John Abernathy, sum- mer stock player from the effete east. .. He is now acting as Welles' stand-in for Tomorrow Is Forever.
 We'll bust our britches! We thought nobody living could look like Orson.
