Nome Chamber Endorses Program Induce Tourists Visit Northwest Alaska

The Chamber of Commerce held an interesting noon meeting yes terday and endorsed the report of the Tourist Committee and, its program. The program. calls for advertising at Fairbanks, Anchor age and Seward to encourage peo- pie who are on short tours to in- clude the Northwest on their trip.
 The program calls for the soli- citing of private homes to take care of these visitors, as the hotels do not feel that they can handle all that are anticipated this sea- son. Rooms as well as available small cabins should be equipped to care for those visitors who wish to stay few days.
 The spirit of friendliness for which Nome is famed-should be emphasized with a cordial and friendly reception of the tourists. Everyone living in the commun- ity should enter into the spirit of entertaining those who come to see us, sums up the report of the committee which is headed by A. P0let.
 A. Saario was acting chairman in the absence of the president and vice president.
 Don Hurlbert reported on the labor committee to the effect that there were plenty of people will ing to work but right now, no work available for them.

Device Developed at Forest Glen
+ To Discover Deafness Victims

A new heailng testing device
designed to discover 1nalingerers
and unwilling victims Of deafness
has been developed by the Audi
ology and Speech Correction
Center at Walter Reed General
Hospitals Forest Glen annex.
The machine. developed by DR.
Aram Glorig, director Of the CEN
ter, was demonstrated at the Insti-
tute of Contemporary Arts, 1922
New York avenue NV. where the
Washington Hearing Society is
sponsoring a National Hearing
Week program.
The device measures changes in
| the skins resistance to small
electric current as the subject
hears sounds from a recording
machine. 1t also gives him a slight
electric shock shortly after he
hears each sound. The theory.
IDr. Glorig explained. is that the
subject will anticipate the shock
when he hears the sound and in
voluntarily tense his muscles.
DR.. Glorig said it is not a perfect
test but does help to determine
actual loss of hearing. It works
better with children, he added,
because a child's reasoning does
not usually build up extremes of
.pretense.
In another demonstration, this
one in a press briefing at the
Pentagon, DR.. Glorig showed
machine which can mass test up

to SO Army inductees or others for
hearing ability.
1t works on the principle of a
constant sound level, with varia-
tions in test tones. # an individual
hears each test tone, he Is con-
sidered to have hearing within
normal limits.

House 0verrides
 Veto on Veteran Pension BiII

WASHINGTON, Aug. 17-tR-The House today passed over President Truman's veto a bill providing $120 monthly pensions to certain veter- ans disabled from causes not con- nected with their military service.
 It applies only to veterans whose condition requires that they have the services of an attendant. The present pensions for these veterans range from $60 to SIP monthly.
 The roll-call vote was 3l8 for pass ing the bill again and 45 against. This was IS more than the two- thirds needed to override a veto.
 Senate action still is required. If the Senate repassed the bill. it be- comes law regardless of the Presi- dents objections.
 President Truman vetoed the bill on Aug. with a message sharply criticizing both the principle of it and the prospective cost.
