Two Active Seward Peninsula Tin
Projects Headed by Ralph Lomen

Ralph Lomen, president of
Nome's Lomen Commercial Co.,
arrived from Seattle July 9.
Ralph, member of the pioneer
Lomen family, whose father,
Judge C. J. Lomen and older
brother Carl landed in Nome in
June 1900, arrived himself in
1908, graduating from Monies
high school in 1906, as one of the
two members comprising its first
graduating class.
Mr.. Lomen, in addition to his
considerable local interests, is
vice president and general man.
ager of the Zenda Tin Corp. with
large interests in the, Tin City
district. The past two seasons
drillings have shown approx
mately 100000 pounds of tin ON
Cape Creek at an average depth
of 80 feet. While drilling has not
been completed on number of
adjoining creeks, all that will be
done this season, Mr.. Lomen
states, is some stripping and as
sessment work.
Mr.. Lomen is also vice presi-
dent and general manager of the
Alaska Tin Corp, which has ex-
tensive tin holdings back of Shish-
maref on Ear Mountain, whore a
crew is presently engaged in
trenching on several lode claims
and continuing the placer drilling
started last summer.
While in the States last winter
Mr.. Lomen made two trips to
Washington DC. in the interests
of his companies, and others en-
gagged in the opening up and de-
velopment of Northwest Alaska's
extensive tin-bearing districts, re-
naming for a number of weeks
each visit. Many Influential de-
partment heads, congressman and
senators were interviewed, and
much sympathetic assistance en-
gendered on behalf of the devel-
opment of Alaska's tin fields.
Among those who were especially
active and helpful were Senator
George Malone of Nevada, chair
man of the Senate subcommittee
on minerals, metals and strategic
materials, Assistant Secretary of
the Interior Felix Wormser, the
Interior Departments expert on
minerals and metals, Delegate to
Congress E. L. Bartlett, and Alas

Sd Suspension Order
Is Given Cafeteria in
Disputed Liquor Case

The third suspension order in
two months was issued today by
the Alcoholic Beverage Control
Board against the Capitol Hill
Cafeteria in a violations case
which had brought congressional
criticism of the Districts three
man board.
The first order was issued in
March when the cafeteria, at 101
Independence avenue Sc, was
found guilty of improperly
stamping wine bottles and fail
ing to stamp others within the
specified time.
That order was withdrawn a
week later and the case was held
in allegiance until further inves-
tigation could be made. On
March 80 the board issued an
other three-day suspension order
to be effective April S. This
order was held up at the request
Of Commissioner Renah Cana
lier who asked for further in
vestigation.
The cafeteria case was men,
toned by Representative O'Hara,
Republican, of Minnesota last
month when he introduced a bill
to abolish the present three
member board and appoint a
single commissioner.
At that time, he said he had
reports that the ABC actions
were sometimes arrogant and
high-handed and mentioned the
bottle stamping case.
The board said today's order
was issued after careful con-
sideration of the testimony and
all the facts and circumstances
surrounding the violations
charged against the licencee."
The three-day suspension will
go into effect at 8 am. Monday,
the order stated.

Commissioners Cool
To Parades Complaint

The District Commissioners
today rebuffed the Merchant &
Manufacturers Association in
the matter of downtown parade
permits.
In letter to the Commission
ers, the association expressed
concern Police Chief Robert v.
Murray was relaxing a policy set
in March, 1851. by his predeces-
sor, Robert j. Barrett. : At that
time Chief Barrett announced a
strict policy in the issuing of
permits to cut down on parades
in the central section of the city.
The matter was brought to a
head by a parade staged on
March 20 by the Shriners. The
association complained the pa
rade, though of short duration,
caused traffic snarls and hurt
business.
The Commissioners, in letter
10 Gne ASSOCIATION, said a study
showed 80 parade permits for
downtown had been issued since
1851. with little or no incon-
venience or complaints" The
letter said the Commissioners
intended to continue the policy
of leaving the issuance of parade
permits up to the discretion of
the chief Of police.

d. {. Heads Consider
Morning Parking Ban
| In Downtown Area

A parking ban that would free
curbs in the downtown shopping
area for loading and unloading
from Z am. to $50 am. daily
was considered today by the
District Commissioners.
Chairman Samuel Spencer
and Commissioner Renah Ca
mailer discussed changes in traf-
f1c regulations which would ban
the morning parking but post
poned action until Engineer
Commissioner Louis Prentiss,
who was absent today, can be
consulted.
The area affected is bounded
by Seventh. Fifteenth, E and G
streets NV.
Merchants in the area have
worked out a plan to have pick
ups and deliveries made between
Z am. and $50 am, wherever
possible. the Commissioners
said. The parking ban would
free the curbs for trucks and
prevent double parking as has
occurred frequently.
Much of the late day trucking
activities in the area preSum-
ably would be eliminated by the
proposed plan.
Action is expected to be taken
later this week and a To-day
notification period will follow
before the changes become ef-
fective.
