seedlings on 6,550 acres OF
spoil banks and unmined land.
During 1852, a total of $4,000
young trees were planted in
its mine areas.
This years unprecedented total
represents about four per cent
of the 25,000.000 trees which Gov.
Frank J. Lausche has urged
Ohioans to set out during 1853 in
Ohio's all-out Sesquicentennial
PLANT Ohio" program.

lingS in mid-March. The job is
expected to be completed by May
!. This years planting will cover
approximately l.500 acres and
will be confined to new spoil
banks made during 1851 mining
operations, surrounding umnined
land and previously planted areas
to be underplanted in 1858.
Under provisions of the Coal
Strip Mine Land Reclamation
Act Of Ohio, spoil banks must be
graded and planted within 26
months of the end of the year in
which the banks are made.

powerful judiciary committee
of which he is also a member,
to the house for action, where
it passed without a dissenting
vote.
House Bill No. 79 authorizes
the state of Ohio to transfer a
certain parcel of land located in
the village of Caldwell, Noble
County, Ohio, to the village of
Caldwell and to repeal Am S.B.
No. 267, entitled "An Act to

approach to this problem is
shown by the fact that $500
people died as the result of
home accidents in 1852. This
was an increase of SO over
1851. Throughout Electromet
plants more man-days are lost
because of home accidents than
those occurring on the job.
All Electromet employees have
been asked to enroll in the pro-
gram. After returning a member
ship application, each member of
the family receives a button and
membership card.
The company will then send
pamphlets to every family at reg
ular intervals. The pamphlets
give practical advice on how to
avoid and eliminate hazards at
home and on the highways. They
will also present useful informa-
tion on the prevention and treat
ment of common diseases. The
material is prepared by the Ma
tional Safety Council and other
agencies.
Mr.. Butler expects the program
to go long way in accident re-
duction and health improvement
in the homes of company en-
ployees, as we'll as to help deve-
lop safety consciousness in the
community.

Stepped up Pace

SEOUL, R-Allied Sabre jets
blasted at least IL Communist
MICS from the North Korean sky
and damaged six others Saturday
in one of their greatest victories
over the sWept-wing Red jets.
The record was set last July 4
when Allied pilots shot down -
MICS, probably destroyed one
and damaged seven.
The suddenly stepped-up tempo
of the aerial war was matched
on the ground where thousands of
Chinese slammed into Allied lines
in central Korea and were driven
off by tough South Korean in
fantrymen.
In bitter hand-t o-hand fighting,
Allied troops backed by thun-
derous artillery fire, cut up
force of some 1000 Chinese.
In the Panmunjom sector, near
where deadIocked truce negotia-
tors recessed peace talks for three
days, woman's voice crooned to
Allied troops by loudspeaker:
Come on over, we're having a
big dance tonight"
The US. Fifth Air Force said
that between May 9 and Is its
fighter pilots destroyed IL Com
munist MICS, probably destroyed
two others and damaged seven.
The Air Force added that it had
lost no planes in aerial fights or
to Communist ground fire during
that period, but Thunderjet and
a Corsair were lost to "other
causes"

New Law Raises
Alaska Employers
Insurance Rates

Alaskan employers can expect
to pay more for insurance carried
on their employees as the result
of new workmen's compensation
law passed by the last legisla-
ture.
This was the word from H. M.
Gould, Jr., of the underwriting
managers firm Gould and Gould,
Seattle, who was in Anchorage
last week on business.
Gould said preliminary study of
Alaskan claim files points toward
a one-third boost in rates after
June % when the law takes eff
feet.
He explained that the legisla-
ton broadens benefits to en-
ployes and it is up to the insur-
ance industry to try to establish
rate to carry the load
Among the biggest changes in
the law are provisions that dou-
BILE most indemnity to employees
totally or partially disabled.
For example, if, in the past, a
certain type Of injury brought
$1,000 compensation, under the
new law it would bring $4,000.
Another change affecting the
insurance rate structure is the
requirement that employers with
one or more workers be covered
for claims that may arise. In
surance coverage previously was
required where there were three
or more employees.
Gould said it has been estab-
lished over the years that small
risks produce an unfavorable ex-
perience for insurers.
While there have been some
The Nome nugget., 1953-05-18
THE NOME NUGGET

notifications in the new law,
such as setting the maximum
compensation at SIS a week,
rather than the old rule of IS per
cent of the salary, Gould said
these would not be sufficient to
offset other benefits that were
broadened.
All Alaskan employees, with the
exception of those in domestic
service, agriculture, dairying or
railroad operations must be COW
cred under the territorial work
mans compensation laws.
Employees working on defense
construction are not affected by
the territorial law.

dersen, mayor of Nome, expressed
appreciation for the people of
Nome, stating that we are deep
ly indebted to Gen. Smith for his
thoughfulness to the Americans

The address of the day was made
by Col. Charles Parker, who, in
well chosen words used the slo-
gan Armed Forces Day Power
for Peace" and cautioned that the
peace can only be kept through
power maintained on land, sea
and air. Only through the coordin-
alton of the armed forces and its
many branches can the peace be
kept. He stressed the point that
the armed forces cannot do the
job alone but needs the assistance
of every American everywhere,
and in every way. He pointed out
that these are crucial days and
we must not relax at this point.
Maj. Adeline Franzer, speaking
for the women in the service,
