City Loses Deed Suit

The city-backed suit of Tom Naehand vs the Dept of the Interior. initiated to clear the cloud over restricted deeds to property he e, has apparently ended with Judge Harry Pratt's order sustaining the governm- ent's demurrer to the plaintiffs amended complaint.
 Buell. A Nesbett, Anchorage attorney. has notified Talmage L Smith, local attorney who worked with him on the case. of the decision in the District Court in the 4th Division.
 Judge Pratt found that the plaintiff had not proved title to the property, since some records of transfers were missing, The estate of which the land was originally a part had never been probated and early records about it's ownership were des- troyed in fire several years ago.
 MT. Nesbett wrote MT. Smith that Judge Pratt chose to de- eide the issue on a technicallty as 1 h i'd feared, thereby ducking the mala issue " The Anchorage lawyer suggested that the city proceed with tax proceedings against at least one native with a restricted deed, ID another att tempt to clear restricted deeds here
 In 6 letter to Mayor Bettinger, Mfr. Nesbett wrote that "l am discussing now with the sU. s. Attorney the possibility of com- meneing a suit against the city by reason of the city's action in proceeding to tax foreclosures against holders of restricted deed. I am in favor of such a suit :n order to get the real issue before the Court as soon as pos slble !"

Stock Market Stages
Brisk Rally After
Early Hesitancy
BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-Buying
interest in stocks sharpened today
after an indecisive opening.
A brisk rally just before midday
left the market with gains of frac-
tions to around 2 points. Earlier
price trends had been obscure, with
plus and minus signs well dis
tributed.
Activity expanded when the price
curve rose and contracted as de-
mand became less aggressive.
Buying power was pretty widely
distributed. Rails we're well in
front, along with steels, motors,
some oils, rubbers and metals.
Traders seemed to be paying a
little more attention to favorable
corporate news, Of which there was
again plenty. Operations, though,
were mainly professional.
National Steel ran up briskly fol-
lowing news Of an extra cash divi-
dend plus a stock disbursement.
The stock moved ahead around 3
points in q few minutes.
