In Germany With
Guided Missiles

WASHINGTON, R-The United
States is arming its forces in Ger
many with guided missiles capa-
BILE Of carrying atomic warheads
hundreds of miles into Red-heId
territory.
The Air Force announced terse-
ly Friday night that it will send
two pilotless bomber squadrons
to Germany this year. No details
were given.
This move seemed to fit into
basic us. strategy defined by
Secretary of State Dulles in his
New York speech Tuesday and
affirmed by President Eisenhower
at his news conference the next
day.
This strategy, Dulles said, is
based on massive retailiatory
power" to deter Soviet aggression.
In this connection, the decision
to augment the fire power of
American forces helping defend
Western Europe Immediately
raised a question::
Would this mean fewer Ameri-
can troops in Europe?
mo, not in ITSELF" Secretary Of
Defense Charles E. Wilson told
reporters Friday. He didn't say
more.
The two squadrons bound for
Germany will be equipped with
B-61 Matador missiles. These have
been in mass production at the
Baltimore plant Of the Glenn L.
Martin Co. for more than a year
The Air Force did not disclose
the number Of missiles in a squad
ron.
The Matador is the best often
sive guided missile to be turned
over to tactical unit Of the Uni
ted States armed forces Other
such missiles with greater speed
and wider range are being de-
signed OF are undergoing tests

Inadequate Appropriations Force
Cuts In Alaska Health Program:
Next Health Board Meeting Here

The Board of Public Welfare
met in Juneau Jan. 80 Board
members are Rev. C. Edgar Gal
liant, chairman, Of the First Divi-
sion; Mrs. Omie Mccarthy Of the
Second Division; Mrs. Evangeline
Atwood of the Third Division; and
DR.. War Skarland Of the Fourth
Division.
The agenda for the meeting was
presented by Henry A. Harmon,
director of the Public Welfare De-
partment. In his report on the
activities and financial conditions
of the programs operated by the
Dept. Of Public Welfare, it was
pointed out that the old age as
sistance program is well financed
but that restrictions continue to
be necessary in the other pro-
grams: aid to the blind, aid to
dependent children, general re-
lief, and juvenile code, because of
inadequate appropriations.
In a close study Of the financial
conditions of the aid to dependent
children program, which now has
in effect a 20 percent reduction
in all grants, it was determined by
the board that it was administra-
lively possible and sound to
change the reduction to 10 percent
as it was recognized that the need
was greatest during the late win
The Nome nugget. [volume] (Nome, Alaska) 1938-????, 1954-01-18


continue with this reduced cut for
the remainder of the biennium.
1t was reported that the case
load in the old age assistance, aid
to the blind and juvenile code pro-
grams had not fluctuated to any
degree during the past year but
that the general relief and aid to
dependent children programs had
continued to increase. General re-
lief showed a definite uptu~n dur
ing the past two months, caused
by the unemployment conditions
in Alaska and by the poor fishing
season.
The members Of the board re-
viewed the fisherman's aid pro-
gram in relation to its effect on
public welfare. 1t was pointed out
that as a result Of the poor fishing
season the public welfare load
would naturally increase as peo-
pie who had previously been cared
for by families or relatives no
longer might have this support.
In discussing the Dept. Of Pub
lie Welfare's role in the territorial
civil defense program, the board
recognized that the department
had a responsibility in planning
for emergency welfare service.
The board recommended that the
staff cooperate in every way pos
sible in Strengthening and devel-
oping an overall civil defense plan.
The board reviewed a study of
public assistance in the United
States which compared Alaska
with the 48 states and other terri
tories. This information was re-
leased by the us. Department Of
Welfare. Statistics revealed that
the national average grant in the
old age assistance program per
month per person was $51.08 as
compared with the average grant
in Alaska of S58.13 per person.
Seventeen states paid a higher
average grant. The amount ex-
pended per capita per year for
support of the old age assistance
program showed a national ex-
penditure Of S9.96 per capita while
the cost in Alaska PEI capita was
SGT. Thirty-nine states paid
higher per capita cost than Alaska.
In the aid to dependent children
program, the average grant for
the nation was S23.89 per month
per person, with the Alaska ave.
age payment being $3.50 per per-
son. Twenty-four states paid a
higher average grant. The cost of
this program per capita per year
for the nation was 1854 and III All
aska it was $4.23 per capita. Six
teen states had higher per capita
cost than Alaska.
The statistics "a the aid to the
blind program revealed that the
national average grant per month
per blind person was $55.53. Al
aska had an average grant Of
$500. Twenty-four states paid a
higher average grant per blind
person. The cost of the aid to the
blind program showed the nation
al average expenditure to be Sal
per capita per year with the cost
per capita in Alsska being $.14.
Forty-saven states paid a higher
yearly average per capita rate
than Alaska.

which includes Truman Avenue
and Roosevelt Boulevard, accord
ing to Charles R. Butler, Of the
city's public service department.
Butler has prepared a huge map
which hangs in the City Court
chambers indicating the location OF
the city's accidents.
Duval Street ranks second a
mong areas with high accident
rates - q traffic accidents have
occurred there since January l.
Butler added that accidents hap
pening on Route One appear to be
of a more serious nature than
those on Duval Street.
The most dangerous intersection
in the city is apparently Simonton
and South Streets. Two persons
have been injured in accidents
there.
Meanwhile, two accidents yester-
day sent Key Vests traffic loss
soaring. Both accidents were caus-
ed by carelessness.
