Crew Rules Tightened
To Check SMALLPOX

Continued threat of introduction
of smallpox in West Coast ports
has prompted tightening of War
Shipping Administration immuni-
zation regulations for crews and
passengers of United States mer-
chant ships.
DR.. Justin K. Fuller, VISA medi-
cal director, announced yesterday
that merchant seamen have been
instructed to carry a record of their
immunizations showing certification
OF the type of reaction to each
smallpox vaccination. Further,
crews bound for Japan have been
notified they will be restricted to
their ships in Japanese ports unless
immunized against smallpox, typhus
and cholera.
Public Health Service reports of
increased incidence of virulent
type of smallpox, and world prevail
ence of quarantinable diseases have
made special precautionary meas

By J. Mcknight

If you survived the cold in
the shop last Monday you're all
set for the winter. There was
ice in some places. The only
person we know that was glad
for the weather we had last
week was Mrs. R. Peabody who
is from Australia and had never
seen snow before. We sure hope
she enjoyed it. We didn't.
Geo. Pund, Dept. SO, has final
ly accepted the fact that he
walked off with the wrong end
of that coon dog deal. After
hunting with the dog deal. After
week, and no success, George
thinks he should of taken the
man who sold the dog instead of
the dog. He don't speak the Ian
guage. Coon dog that is.
We voted to accept the final
action on our strike issues at
oui last Sunday meeting. AS
things now stand there are no
grievances or strike issues. We
hope the management will en-
deaver to keep the slate clean.
After several years as a ma
terial move man Ray Babcock,
Dept. SO, has finally found use
for a scale. w. Carrico, fore
man, gave him one that was
given to him.
Leo Carson, Dept. 40, and
Herb Hoerig, Dept. 80 reports
hunting very dull in Canada
this year. Herb bought a nice
new gun too.
The Credit Union is going to
try to raise a little money by
having feather party. Mr..
Sager will have all the details
next week.
Russ Yingling, Timekeeping
Dept. is back to work after a
few weeks off due to illness. We
are glad to see you back Russ
We notice you can sit a little
closer to the desk too.
We ask your cooperation to
take little more care in park
ing your car. There has been
number of complaints that
tenders are being damaged and
that in some cases too much
space is being lost by parking
too far apart. Now that winter
is here, start a little earlier and
avoid accidents.
