Communists Present Gloomy Picture For Early Truce Settlement

MUNSAN, (P) - Deadlocked armistice negotiators debated the prisoner exchange issue in secret for only seven minutes Wednes- day. A Communist broadcast pre- sented a gloomy picture of chances for early settlement.
 Red China's Peiping radio said "Provocations by the American side outside the Panmunjom con- ference tent have thrown an om- inous shadow over world policy"
 The Communist broadcast said the "adventurist policy" of mili- tary pressure by American gen. erals shows they have no sincere desire for an early peace in Korea.

Chamber of Commerce Rests After Busy Season

Chamber of Commerce officials sat back yesterday and rested on their laurelS after weeks and months of tireless effort to obtain a variety of necessities for Nome and Second Division.
 Most important of these was the recent announcement of the appointment of Earl Cooper for judge. This project has been a difficult one for the past year. Second, the Chamber went all out to get a supply boat for Nome and this area during the boat strike now ended. Third, after six months efforts, welfare worker has again been established and once again Nome has a public health nurse on duty.
 The fine cooperation of .Nome's leading food merchants was ex- pressed in reciprocal statements made by Larry Calvin of US. Mere and Dewey Goodrich of the Northern Commercial.
 A new project got under way as the Chamber planned to pre- sent a resolution to the 17th Naval District Coast Guard headquar- ters for the establishment of a permanent Coast Guard station here such as Nome had for many years heretofore. The present group stationed here temporarily for part of the summer are sched- uled to leave soon. The Chamber feels it is important to have such a station in case of accident from ship to shore as well as for an immigration outpost due to our proximity to a foreign country.
 Nome Visitors Association rep reSentative A. Polet, announced that the program for finances for this season has been launched and the local business houses will be solicited for their share of the ex- penseS for this seasons tourist de- velopment. It was announced that

 Sharing the speakers program with Dawson were Georgia NeeSe Clark, Treasurer of the United States; Perle Mesta, US. minister to Luxembourg; Eugenie Ander- son, US. ambassador to Denmark, and Richard J. Nelson, president of the Young Democratic Clubs of America.
