SHIPS BRINGING WAR
DEAD ARRIVING SOON

Ogden, Utah, Oct. 8.-Next of kin
of World war ii deceased being re-
turned to the intermountain area for
final burial were advised today there
will be a considerable lapse of time
between arrival of the repatriation
ships at the ports of New York and
San Francisco and delivery of re-
mains to the final destination.
Col. Graves B. McGary, command
ing officer of the Utah general dis
tribution depot, Ogden, where the
American graves registration di-
vision distribution center is located,
said the time factor will depend
largely upon distances in the inter-
mountain area.
at is probable there will be as
much as three weeks between the
arrival of the repatriation ships at
the ports of entry and delivery of
the decedant to the final destina-
tion," the colonel declared.
Distance from the port to the
home of the next of kin, and the
number of rail transfers involved
will govern the time in most in
stances. The time necessary to pro-
cess each individual remains at the
distribution center will be a minor
factor in the time element.
with winter approaching, and
since there are many towns in this

from a railroad, weather and road
conditions also will play an i'm
portant part in the time required to

The first repatriation ship from
the Pacific theater is scheduled to
arrive at the San Francisco port
on Oct. 10. The first ship from
the European theater is due at the

ton center at Utah general distri-

DESCRIBES TRIP TO
NORWAY AND SWEDEN

What he saw, heard and exper-
fenced on a trip of two months to
Norway and Sweden was interest
ingly recounted Wednesday evening
by Hilmar Wage, a resident of Lau-
rel for many years, when he spoke
at the weekly dinner meeting of the
Kiwanis club. He was presented by
j.. w. Baldwin, program chairman.
Wage left Norway in 1909 to fol-
low the life of a sailor as many of
his relatives and friends had done,
spent three years in the Atlantic and
South Pacific and wound up as a
COW hand in the Melville country
north of Big Timber. AS an Amer
lean solder he went to France in
the first World war, and after his
return to Montana he went into rail-
road work. He has been a machinist
at Laurel the past 81 years. This
year he returned to Norway to visit
his relatives, though his parents had
died in 1913 during the German oc-
cupation.
Mr.. and Mrs. Wage and their
daughter sailed from New York
June 81 IN a Norwegian liner that
had been seized by the Germans
and used as a transport ship and
as a headquarters ship. Most
the way across the weather was
foggy and rainy. The liner was well
stocked with every imaginable kind
Of food, but as fish is not a common
dish here Wage made the mistake
Of eating considerable sea food while
going over. This he later regretted.
Two cigars at customs in Norway
seemed to release the Americans and
heir baggage, including a box of
groceries,, rather quickly. Wage had
to know his relatives when
lie saw them, but he stood quite
while on the pier before a little
cirl inquired if he was her Uncle
1ilmar. She disappeared, to return .
With a crowd of his kinsmen. The l
'roblem then was with whom he
7ould stay first. {
The choice was a cousin living on c
n island in the North sea, not far
rom Bergan, a city of 100000. v
here he went fishing every night, v
!, it could be properly called night, c
or in summer the days are long t
nd the visitors had difficulty in L
to go to bed while it was
light. In the afternoons Wage S
'ent with others to fish for salmon {
nat weighed from 10 to % pounds. t.
nd in a lobster expedition of two v
avs and a night they took some II
Holsters. L
Returning to coastal Norway the
mericans visited relatives of Nels N
ordahl of Laurel and then spent K
| hours going to Stockholm in d
weden. The contrast of the two N
'untries was impressive. Norway

spring." the assessor said. "Total

county show increases, ranging from
3 per rent in district No. 6 to
80 per cent in district No. 20.
