The Nome nugget., 1946-04-24

As a candidate for reelection to the Territorial Senate on the Democratic ticket, I find myself compelled to answer and refute the base and malicious charges which have been circulated against me throughout this Divi sion recently, in an effort to de- feat me for reelection. I particu- larly refer to a circular letter written on stationery of the Grand Camp of Alaska Native Brother hood, over the signature of one William l.. Paul, Jr., who signs himself as secretary of that organ ization.
 MT. Paul tells you that I voted against the so-called Equal Rights" bill and should therefore be defeated. You already knew that I voted against the bill. l never denied it. But MT. Paul goes further and states that in the dis cussion of the bill in the Senate 1 condemned Indians, AleutS and ESkimos as being no good because they stink. smell of seal oil and should not be allowed to enter places where white people gather" " This is a deliberate lie on the part of MT. Paul. I never made that statement.
 It is true that l opposed the bill as originally introduced and con- tended then, as do now, that the main purpose of the bill was not to benefit the natives, but was in tended to promote the interests of interruptions politicians, who prey upon those innocent people for their own political aggrandize- ment.
 I offered an amendment to the bill which would reserve the right of the proprietor or manager of any hotel, restaurant or other public place of business, to reject any person, whose company might endanger the health of others, through the spread of communi- cable disease; or any person of unclean habits; habitual drunk ards who might cause annoyance to others. Specifically providing that there should be no distinction of race. creed or color. This amendment was voted down, and then voted against the original bill.
 The second statement by MT. Pau, is to the effect that during the discussion of the Wolf Bounty

 years made his home in Fair banks.
 Sgt Woofter stated, in reference to the tuberculosis hospital, that in all fairness to the population, the hospital should be at or near Nome, although Fairbanks does need a good general hospital. It is a we'll known fact that the major ity of tuberculosis cases are in the Second Division and could more easily be brought to Nome for care.
 The Chamber will meet next Tuesday and will have Superin- tendents and teachers of the schools in Nome as guests.

Everything Quiet
/ At The City Hall
1t Says Here!

Mum was the word this
morning at City Hall as all eff
forts to uncover developments at
yesterdays special city eomnis-
sion meeting proved fruitless.
Il suggest you see the Mayor"
commented City Manager Dave
King yesterday. See the Mayor -
suggested City Clerk Roy Ham
lin. ~ s
THE city manager is meeting
with Commissioners Carbonell
and Cooper on routine matters, :
said the Mayor. Commissioner
Clarence Seweting was out of
town. Commissioner A be r t
Cooper couldn't be reached; ditto
Commissioner Hunter Harden;
ditto Commissioner John Car
bonell.
But the rumors came thick and
fast. King was asked why he
had appointed Tom Watkins as
acting chief of police during
Chief Louis Eisner's absence,
some said The four policemen
have been asked to resign so that
King will stay, said others. More
commissioners are resigning, said
still others.
Nobody knew - everybody
guessed, and the merry go-round
went round and round. -.

Sierra Clarifies
Posting OfCivil
Service Rules

Pointing out that posting of the
regulations governing the civil
service board had nothing to do
with the decision of the board to
reinstate the four patrolmen pre-
viously dismissed by City Man
ager Dave King, Ralph Sierra,
chairman of the board, stated to-
day that the regulations have
now been posted in the City Hall.
Civil service regulations are not
effective until they have been
posted one week.
The ruling to reinstate the po-
licemen is governed by Section %
of the City Charter and was not
affected by posting any civil
service rules and regulations,
Sierra said. ts
To comply with the City Char
ter, the civil service rules and
regulations are posted in the City

'WdtTspOut, Mile IN Diameter
HAnd Mich Expected To Be
Caused From Atomic Bomb Blast
ANOTHER VIEW TO-DAY
is THAT BOTTOMS
WILL BE TORN FROM
81 TARGET SHIPS

BIKINI, July 24.-The first ex-
plosion of an atomic bomb un-
der water will take place this
afternoon at 5:35 o'clock. Eastern
Daylight Saving Time. Admiral
William Blandy announced.
Regarding the weather. he said
the only thing he feared was that
clouds may gather over the 81
target ships in the Bikini lagoon
and thus interfere with the sights
in the plane from which the bomb
will be dropped.
Several guesses have been
made about the effects of the UNI
der-water explosion. Some say
that the explosion likely will
suck up a vast volume of water
from the lagoon and shoot IL into
the air, in formation of water
spout, about a mile in diameter
and a mile high.
Another prediction Is that the
explosion will tear the bottom
out of the ships. and that all Of
them will sink, assuming that the
bomb strikes the water at the
point chosen for it to fall
Another conjecture is that q
great tidal wave will be caused
by the explosion of the bomb.
When Admiral Blandy made
his announcement that the ex-
plosion will take place at the
time scheduled. all of the $4,000
men had gone to safety posts far
beyond the Binikilagoon.

WASHINGTON, July 24.-Two
Soviet spokesman today made
direct charges against the Unit

spokesman said that the United
States government had purpose
ly caused the arrest of a Russian
officer on a charge of espionage
to rouse unfriendly feelings
against the Russian government.
In Tokyo, the Russian member
of the Council of Four charged,
in a written statement that he
read at a bi-Weekly meeting of
the council, that the United
States representative made it a
point to be arbitrary in his de-
cision against the other three
members.
But it was the Pravda spokes-
man who was bitter in his accu-
sation. He asserted that the
United States knew that the
Russian officer was guiltless at
the time the charge was made
against him, and added that the
trial proved there was no foun-
dation to base the charge on. The
officer was set free.

there will be an immediate i'm
vestigation at a special meeting
today into City Manager Dave
Kings suspension of Patrolman
George Gutierrez on a charge of
being absent from his post Sat
urday night while on duty.
The Civil Service chairman re-
vealed it was his impression that
the suspended patrolman was re-
ported by Chief Eisner and 1t.
Joseph Kemp only three min
utes before he was scheduled to
go off duty.
The findings of the Civil Ser
ice Board which includes Jeffer-
son knight and Miss Wilhelmina
Harvey in addition to Mr.. Sierra,
will be presented to the City
Commission.
Denying the charge made
against him by Manager King,
Gutierrez declared he did not
leave his post before midnight
Saturday.
when asked by the Chief, in
company with 1t. Kemp, why !
had left my post, / replied that
/ got off at twelve midnight"
Gutierrez told The Citizen. "It
was then 1908 a. m, on the clock
at the service station where
was Intercepted, a clock five
minutes slower than the city
clock"
Upon leaving my post at IL
O'Clock midnight, | got lift from
Walter Knowles, who operates
the moving picture machine at
the Palace theater," he contin-
ued, ''who dropped me at the
corner of Simonton and Division
streets.
AT the time was interrogat-
ed by the Chief and Lieutenant.
John Carbonell, city commits
sioner, Mrs. John Carbonell,
Walter Knowles and Everisto
Nunez were present and can
verify that / had just arrived
and that it was after 10 o'clock
midnight. jf
Il therefore appeal to the
Civil Service Board and ask that
/ be given a hearing, as the sus-
pension is unjust and / aniS not
guilty of any offense," he de-
clared. VA q g
City Manager King said this
morning that Gutierrez was
found two blocks from his post,
Constituting a ten minute Walk
three minutes before midnight
Saturday.
Commenting on the suspension,
King added: Il don't care who
the Individual concerned is - if
orders are not carried out the
violator will be suspended i'm
mediately.
Unfortunately, this incident
happened to concern one of the
men involved in the Civil Serv-
ice reinstatement and it may APP
pear as though l were checking
on him. Some individuals have
thought l would overlook the in
fraction since it concerned one
of the men involved in the con-
troversy. However, if anyone ever
finds me overlooking anything of
the sort, l wish they'd advise
me-" he declared.
when a man is supposed to
be on duty from four until II,
his working hours are upnIbn
expect him to be on duty and
not quit before his working
hours are up" he concluded.

Made h $15,OOO CiUiZ Suit
 Action BaSed on Fatal Injuries
 Suffered by Mrs. Linda Falzone;
 S,,prenne Court Ruling Given on Case

Superior Court Judge Francis A. Pallotti today permitted an amend ment to defense in the $l5,OOO fatality suit of Joseph Falzone against Edwin Gruner, both of this city, and by his decision made way for new trial, now set for April lS.
 The action, based on fatal injur- ies sustained by Mrs Linda F9lzone in a stairway fall on Gruner prop erty on North Main Street, was re turned for a new trial by the State Supreme Court in December. The first trial Lad ended in S7,5OO jury verdict for the plaintiff, as admin istrator of his mothers estate.
 In the amendment, the defendant sought to incorporate defense that the accident victim, tenant of the Gruner property, had agreed as part consideration of the rental to light the stairway each night and to turn off the light in the morning.
 Tn that defense, now in the rec
