My Fellow Americans:
Tonight, ! would like to talk
to you as individuals and as
American families - deeply
concerned with the realities Of
living. We have had q year of
progress and can look ahead
with confidence.
Our problems are many. We
wonder about our Nations se-
curity - the great standing
question Of peace In the world
and what this may mean in
the lives and careers Of our
sons and daughters. All Of us
are concerned with the cost
Of food and clothing and shell
ter-With taxes and income
and savings and jobs - with
the schooling. the health and
the future Of our children, and
grandchildren - with all the
problems and purposes and
great hopes that I'LL our lives.
Believe me-theSe realities of
living. every one Of them, are
the deep concern, too. Of this
administration.
From time to time. as we
tackle Governments part in
the solution Of these prob
lens. members Of the admins
tration-myself and others
will report to you about our
aims. our actions. our prog
resS-and what is being ac-
complished. This kind of re-
porting, 1t seems to me, is one
OF the great responsibilities of
a Government which, like ours.
rests on the consent of the
people. We know that an in
formed and alert people is
the backbone of the free sys-
tenn in which this republic was
conceived and under which it

Thursday Morning Fire
Burns Nome Landmark,
Old DOOlittle Home

An historic landmark was de-
stroyed yesterday morning when
the Jimmie Doolittle homestead
was burned by fire at 500 am.
The house was occupied by Les
Kellar, cmploye of the us. Smelt-
ing Co., his wife and three very
small children.
Except for few personal eff
fects the family lost everything
they owned. The house belonged
to the Carlson estate and was
repeatedly covered by insurance.
The cause of the fire has not been
fully determined. Kellar had left
for work and the family was
asleep, it is reported
The Junior Police who were on
hand are to be congratulated for
keeping 80 to 40 three to six
year-old youngsters from getting
too close to fire fighting men and
equipment.
This Junior Police duty is nee
essary at fires and is authorized
by the police and fire chiefs. None
of the Junior Police are ordered
to be present at fires and those
parents who do not want their
boys on such duty should keep
them at home
Older Junior Police are not to
assist the firemen at work, but
at times can be helpful in passing
out or picking up fire axes and
other such items.
Junior Police Director George
R. Goshaw states that the local
fire risk is always great, that
Nome has to depend upon it's vol

assist at such fire emergencies,
and that all training is only in the
interest of better citizenship and
