Ice went away too soon, so wal
rus hunting came to an end as
soon as the ice was gone.
Ice leaving early this season re-
suited in fewer catch of walrus
and seals and oogrooks, but each
of the Ia or is boats ended the
seasons hunting with good sup
ply of meat and hides.
Seal, walrus and whale-hunters
stored their hunting gear and are
fishing for sculpins (bull heads.
Sam, Bill and Vernon SlWoo-
kos boats made a trip down to
Southwest Cape last week to stay
for several days. They returned
Saturday, June IS. Duffy Ugulo-
wok, in the crew of one of the
boats, suffered a broken bone
above the ankle when he fell off
the ledge a few feet above the
water. Broken leg was fixed nice
ly with splints.
An improvised stretcher served
its purpose during many hours of
boat ride coming to Gambell.
Duffy said they stayed another
u to IA hours longer after he was
hurt before coming to Gambell,
but declined to answer why. He
will be flown to Nome as soon as
there is a plane.
Ice on Lake Troutman is melt
ing away very quickly. At the
present, good portion Of the lake
is clear of big ice-enough to land
small sea plane. All or most Of
the ice will be gone this week.
Gambell Native Store had new
er filled its shelves with canned
groceries in early June before, but
il did this spring. CAA commits
sary supplies were turned over
to the village store because they
will not need it any more.
Housewives shopped with wide
grins when they saw the shelves
filled full from shoe polish to hair
tonics besides all other canned
groceries and vegetables.

House Rejects Proposal
Restrict Free Medical Care
For Vets Who Can Paw

WASHINGTON, R-The House
today rejected proposal to re-
strict free medical care for war
veterans who can afford to pay
for it and whose ailment is not
connected with his military SER
vice.
By roll-call vote of PIT to 100,
the House knocked from an ap-
preparations bill provision that
would have allowed the Veterans
Administration to ignore an oath
by veteran that he can't afford
to pay for disqualification.
The VA may not ignore such
an oath now. Instead, it must ac-
cept at face value veterans oath
that he can't afford outside treat
ment and furnish disqualification
when available.

VISITORS TO NOME

Wien-Alaska's visitors on We'd
nesday were from seven different
states and seven of the visitors
remained over in Nome, planning
to depart on Thursday for Fair
banks. They were: Mr.. and Mrs.
T. E. Rischard of Santa Ana,
Calf; Mr.. and Mrs. Necker of
Union City, N. j.; Mr.. and Mrs. J.
w. Peck of Lewistown, Montana;
and Mrs. Jessie M. GAM of Seat
tie.
Others on the bus tour of the
Anvil Mountain Loop were: c. r.
Neidengard, Steubenville, O.; Mr..
and Mrs. G. G. Space, Orofino,
Idaho; Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. K.
Koch, St. Anthony, Idaho; Mr.. and
Mrs. John Monsen, Idaho Falls,
Idaho; Mrs. Verna Gabrelcik, La
Mesa, Calf; Mr.: and Mrs. J. w.

Several of the ladies enjoyed
the opportunity to gather wild
flowers on Anvil Mountain. Ger
tain species were taken with them,
to be replanted in their home
states.
Several of the visitors who re-
manned for an extra day in Nome,
wanted to rent a car so they could
drive about the district, but no
cars are available. Perhaps some
enterprising cab owners could ar
range and advertise rentals, they
suggested.

Fifteenth street is the biggest
money street in the world.
For on it is the Treasury Of
the United States. which holds
trust funds that dwarf any bank.
the largest fund being the SIT
billion for Federal old age and
survivors insurance. It has bill
lions on loan to foreign govern
ments and is constantly re-
financing the certificates and
bonds of the national indebted
ness of $267 billion.
These transactions are han
died for the most part in the
Federal Reserve Bank in New
York. the Nations money capi-
tai. But Fifteenth street also is
the money market Of. Washing
ton. The blocks north of the
Treasury to K street, bordered
with banks and brokerage houses
are known as Washington's "Lit-
tie Wall Street."
Many More Houses There.
Business is booming on "the
street" When asked the other
day to give some idea Of how
much it has increased, Y. E.
Booker, head of the local Office of
Alex Brown & Sons, fell back to
paraphrasing the tribute paid to
Christopher Wren whose towers
dominated the skyline of 17th
century London.
IF you want to realize how
this business has grown" Mr..
Booker said, "just look about
you"
There are many more financial
houses along the street than
there were in the bull market
of the 20s, and apparently they
are doing a bigger volume of
business. There are many indi-
cations that Washington has
taken a financial position high
up in the list of American cities.

when they are low.

Mr.. Dunn pointed out that a
decision on the litigated rate in
crease of April, 1851, was still
awaited from the United States
Court of Appeals, and that while
the company had hoped the
decision might be out of the
way before financing would have
to be undertaken, the financing
could not wait much longer. It
was indicated the financing
would be announced in about
two weeks.
Director Reelected.
The annual meeting was at
tended by lat stockholders and
3,162,972 shares or "a per cent
OF the outstanding stock were
represented either in person or
by proxy. All directors were re-
elected as follows:
George Bissett, Lee D. Butler,
James E. Collif1ower, Albert l..
Cox, Mr.. Dunn, James H. Ferry,
Robert V. Fleming, George E.
Hamilton, jr., William H. Lips
comb, Alfred G. Neal, Harry L.
Rust. jr., and Wilmer j. Waller.
A number of stockholders
complimented both the manage
ment and the board of directors
fer progress during the year.
Mr.. Dunn reviewed briefly the
company's 1852 operations. Both
sales and revenues set new rec
ords and earnings amounted to
$1.35 a share, including around
% cents a share attributable to
the litigated rate increase.
Construction Pushed.
AS sales continue to increase,
there has been no curtailment in
the construction program, the
authorized budget for which now
amounts to more than SAL mil
lion, he said.
In answer to a stockholders
question, Mr.. Dunn said the COM
,pany had made no decision on
sale of it's land at Great Falls
although it has had number of
offers. The 965 acres were ac-
quired as a possible site for
power plant. but engineering diff
ficulties prevented it's use for that
purpose.
After the stockholders session,
directors reelected Alfred G.
Neal board chairman and Mr..
Dunn president. Other re-
elected officers: George Bisset,
vice president in charge of ope-
rations; Harold G. Hayden, vice
president and treasurer; William
L. Jones, vice president in charge

Washington that day was the
eighth largest city in the country
in volume on the big board.
The test was made again on
September II and on that day
Washington, with 1.3 per cent
Of the total, was tied for seventh
place with Baltimore and Pitts
burgh.
City Has Big Bond Market.
Trading on the big board is
just one part of the business.
There is the big bond market,
the sale of bonds to insurance
companies and banks for their
own account or for trust funds
that must be kept in bonds, and
bonds for the individual inves-
tor. One Washington insurance
company, the Acacia Mutual
Life, sometimes buys several
hundred Thousand dollars worth
at a crack.
Day by day, the overtime
counter transactions, the sale
of new bonds and of securities
listed and unlisted, sales accom-
plised without using the ma
chinery of the exchanges, are
far larger in total than the sum
of transactions on the big board.
The wires from Washington
carry multiple orders to be ex-
ecuted on the Chicago grain
market, the New Orleans cotton
market and other commodity ex-
changes.
More People With Money.
Who are the traders causing
this big increase in business?
The best answer the local man
ayers can give is that, during
World War II and since, a lot
of people with money have come
to Washington. They have been
in the habit of trading, and they
have continued it here.
They are not the persons who
sit in the big board rooms. Most
of the daily visitors are men who
have retired, own a few stocks,
and like to watch their chang
