 Cmdr. Gibson said the Burton Island was within 30 miles of Ber- ing Strait and could have gone on through"
 The vessel was the first to visit Nome, in the dead of winter, and Gibson said the arrival was hailed by residents of the greatest thing since the gold rush."
 The Burton Island plowed through 500 miles of ice, three to four feet thick. to reach the northernmost point. King Island, Gibson said He added the trip was aided by the mild winter. 19 degrees below zero being the coldest encountered.
 The Burton Islands crew con- sisted of l73 men. including one civilian scientist.

BUBBLE GUM STUCK
 TO E5kIM05 WHEN ARMY LEFT ARCTIC

ANCHORAGE. Alaska, March D. R-It's boom and bust beyond the Arctic Circle the Eskimos are chew ing bubble gum. Among the more gifted masticat- ors are the older women. They used i to chew tobacco. Then ordinary chewing gum. Now it's bubble gum or trouble, chum Observers say it is not unusual when one trading post is out ot bubble gum for Eskimos to hitch up dogteams and mush as far as 60 miles to another post where stocks are ample.
 And woe to the man who returns without sufficient bubble gum for all the neighbors.
 It's common sight, outpost resi- dents say, to see husky Eskimo racing across the Arctic wilderness behind his dogteam, his sled a mighty balloon of the exploding chicle.

VASHINGTON-Only the Presi- dents inside advisers know it, but he gave decidedly different twist to the idea they originally put up to him of stumping the country.
 Some of MT. Truman,s loyal friends had suggested to him, shortly before the Jackson -Jeffer- son Dinner, that he go on a tour of the nation in order to keep his contacts with the people, not to rap Congress.
 They were frankly afraid that Truman, sitting in the rarified at mosphere of Washington and sur rounded by too many yes-men, was losing his perspective. So it was suggested that instead of going to Key West for vacation, the Pres ident go on trip through the West perhaps to visit some water power project or the snowbound areas.
 MT. Truman, however, declined to give up his Key West outing. though he had spent two weeks there shortly before Christmas. And

 RefueIing Four Times

FORT WORTH, Tex, Mar. 2.--lR An Airforce B-50 Bomber, the Lucky Lady II, came back home today from history's first non- stop round-the-w world flight, it's crew convinced that with the aer- ial refueling technique our bombers "can go anywhere in the world at any time"
 The medium bomber, re-supplied four times by converted B-29 Fly ing Gas Stations" during it's 23,i08- mile trip came over its home field -Carswell Air Base-94 hours and minute after its takeoff last Sat urday.
 The top command of the Airforce came down from Washington to welcome the IA men. Air Secretary Symington shook their hands, told them You've done wonderful job, this is the finest teamwork. !" Actually, this was the second try at the nonstop world flight. A B-50 took off last Friday, flew several thousand miles, then had to land because of an engine fire. A second B-50 was ready and left the Fort Worth base the following day.
 From then on there was no trouble.
 Norma. Flight
 Capt. James Gallagher, pilot and spokesman for the crew, in news conference, said: Everything was quite normal about the whole flight. Everything worked out we'll"
 There was mot bit of trouble" in the tricky business of contracting the refueling tankers and then bringing aboard a gas replenish- ment load.
 Yes, said the captain, they were all pretty tired, but we did very well on sleep" during the long flight.
 The IA men gave two men for each position, so they relieved each other at the controls.
 The crewmen had support in high places for their belief that this flight showed the combat cap abilities of the aerial refueling technique
 Deliver Bomb Anywhere
 Gen. Curtis E. Lemay. chief of the Strategic Air Command, was asked at the news conference if this means you can use refueling to deliver a bomb anywhere in Russia"
 The General replied:
 Let's say any place that would re ,uire an atom bomb"
 Then he explained that now i've can put bombers and tankers any, place any time where necessary"
 Aside from the demonstration of the in-flight refueling method, the Airforce also found it could keep tactical control over a plane any where in the world. If necessary, the B-50 could have been diverted from its course, ordered back or given any other change in orders by headquarters of the Eighth Air force at any time during the trip.
 There were hourly routine re- ports to the base throughout the
