His Excellency the Governor. and
the Administrator for St. Croix Harry
E. Taylor left the meeting.
The Chairman (Harrigan): We will
now proceed with the, business Of the
Council, first we will have the read
ing of the Journal.
LIST Member for Christiansted Coun-
try, District (Chase): Mr., Chairman.
AS new members, are we competent
to pass on the Journal?
The Chairman (Harrigan): It would
be an unusual procedure if, because
we have a new Council with new
members the business Of the people

should remain incomplete.

lSt Member for Chr1StlanSted Couil-
try District (Chase): MI. Chairman.
The three members of the old Coun--
Gil are the ones to act on that.
The Chairman (Harrigan): l. am
sure that the old members will guide
the new ones The Journal must be APP
proved. The Secretary. will now read
the Journal.
The Secretary, to the Council read
the Journal of the Proceedings of the

heard the Journal read. Any member

of the fact that none of the old mem

ance until they r present.
The Chairman Harrigan): Whether
members are new or old we are re-
spensible for the adoption of the Jour-
nal That is the procedure in every or
ganization, it doesn't matter whether
Remembers are new or old.

the Seventh Council-First Session,
those minutes pertain to the Second
Session of the Sixth Council.
The Chairman lHarrigan): Must we
have in the record of the Council two
or three Journals that have not been
approved?
End Member for Frederiksted3Town

 One of the ''scare words" which President Truman recently said is in current without being really derstood is Statsm" Official definitions of this show that it means government control of the major phases of the economic and political life of the people, That sounds exactly like what the department of the n

Palmer Doctors X-ray Pupils

PALMER, (P) - Two Palmer Valley physicians, working in CO., operation with the Territorial de partment of public health, made chest x-rays of TAO valley school children last week.
 The x-rays, taken by Drs. (. C. Bailey and R. E. Garrett were made following school physical, examinations which doctors said uncovered extensive nutritional deficiencies and postural defects among the children.

FRIDAY IS BOY SCOUT FINANCE DAY

It the day of the year when the people of Nome asked to support the Boy Scouts of America by ributng to the budget of the Alaska Council along with all other Alaskan communities with Scout programs No quota has been set.
 The Alaska council has brought to Alaskan boys the Boy Scout program from Point Barrow to Kechikan It have increased the number of boys in Scouting from 251 to than 1900 four years The lowering of the entranceage requirements by year and the fact that there more boys in Alaska means that the Council is laying plans to bring these additional boys into Scouting.
 The money raised throughout Alaska by the various communities is in turn spent throughout Alaska to bring Scouting to boys. The who govern the spending of the funds and plan to budget Alaskan business men, and Nome has representation among them Nome has received in the past adequate service to it's volunteer leaders and will continue to receive it tn future as long Nome along with the rest of Alaska participates in financing the organization that makes Scouting possible.
 Nome has benefited from the Alaska Council in that it's Scout program has tripled Nome has Cub Pack Scout Troop and Air Explorer Squadron The leaders trained, and the leadership changes the will receive training.

Yes, Atomic Bomb
 Is Terrible Weapon

MEXICO CITY, (P) - You do have a chance against the atomic bomb-if you are at least half a mile away from the explosion.
 Maj. Albert J. Bauer, of the U. s. army surgeon generals office says if you're four miles away when the bomb goes off, your chances of escaping without in- jury are almost perfect.
 But from four miles in toward the center, the safety percentages drop of sharply. From a half mile out to a mile and a half from the atomic blast, it is about 50-50 that you will come out alive. In the half-mile inner circle, "there will be almost complete destruction" with deaths very close to 100 per cent" Bauer says.
 Bauer prepared this report with Capt. John R. Hogness of the U. S. army medical center for presenta- ton yesterday before the 12th in- ternational congress of military medicine and pharmacy meeting here. Military medical officers from 28 nations are attending the congress-.
 Easing their findings on the atomic explosions at Hiroshima, Nagasaki and Bikini, the two army medical men described the effect of an atomic blast and how to defend a city against it.
 Agreeing that "the atomic bomb is truly a fearful and extremely destructive weapon" the report emphasizes that the public must realize "an atomic explosion is not the end for all concerned"
 Bauer and Hogness regard wide spread fire and sereve burns as the greatest hazards of the bomb. The intense flash of the blast sends out heat waves that can ig- mite inflammable materials a mile and half away.
 What to do about a bomb at tack? Bauer and Hogness recom- mend preparedness measures not much different from those for any other kind of bombing.
The Nome nugget., 1949-10-26

Council service to Nome, while Nome has not supported the Coun- cil budget and its own service since 1947.
 Friday is the time for Nome to rejoin the brotherhood of Scouting in Alaska through adequate sup port to the Boy Scouts of America and its authorized program in Alaska, ont only to help its own Scouting program, but to join with other Alaskan towns to make Scouting available to all Alaskan boys. Nome must pack its own weight, and help others pack theirs until they too, can carry on and join with Nome in still helping others.
