Problems Block Further Meetings of Nome Youth In Activities at USO Club

The Youth Activities meeting, supervised by Mrs. Larry Calvin, Mrs. Myrtle Chambers and Mrs. Harold Yerger, was held at the U.S.O. Monday with 112 children present. They were all enthusi- astic for having square dancing as project.
 l. was pointed out that in order to use the U.S.O. room to any advantage, the children would have to be divided into small groups. One suggestion was for the group to be divided by school grade.
 Mrs. Calvin felt that although a large number of the children would probably drop out, the ini- tial interest shown by these chil- dren, ages g through IA, should be an indication to the people of Nome that, although a good deal in the way of Scout activities and so forth is now being offered, the children themselves are still eager to participate in other supervised instructive activities.
 To accomplish anything a. all, Mrs. Calvin stated, some parents of children participating would be required to supervise and help instruct. Two parents and an in- structor per group was felt to be the minimum requirement.
 The sponsors of Mondays meet ing also expressed the opinion that sponsoring organization, such as the PTA, is essential to serve as guiding hand to to keep the group active
 The sponsors decided that until something is worked out to solve these last two problems there will be no further meetings of this group.

Defense Dept. To Seek Equalize Rail Rates To Alaska

WASHINGTON, R-The De- fense Department has decided to support an action designed to equalize continental rail freight rates on goods shipped to Alaska with those moving to Hawaii and other transpacific ports.
 Sen. Magnuson D-Wash) said today he has been advised the de- partment will furnish both a wit ness and statistical data to back a complaint the General Services Administration (GSA) plans to bring against the railroads before the Interstate Commerce Com mission. The senator requested such action in a letter to Secre- tary Wilson several weeks ago.
 Magnuson has urged equaliz- ing of Alaska freight rates for more than year, contending the present railroad tariffs on freight destined for Alaska in some cases

National Canned Salmon Week

Observance of National Canned Salmon Week, starting February 23 has brought expressions of inter est and approval from Douglas Mckay, Secretary of the Interior the governors of Washington Oregon and Alaska, and other important officials in government, according to E. B. McGovern, Seattle, chairman of National Canned Calmon Week.
 Governor of Alaska B. Frank Heintzeman pointed out that
 "Alaska's first salmon cannery established in 1878 and since that date the catch and processing of this fine seafood has been in the front ranks of our northern industries Salmon canneres scattered along several thousands of miles of coast have been among largest employers of labor and of our most important sources of Territorial tax revenues several decades
 Many of our Alaskan communities depend almost entirely upon the salmon business for their existence and in Alaska the fluctuations of the salmon catch and of the world market price for the final product watched closely the Midwest farmer watches the wheat market
 Canned salmon provides Alaskas greatest export both in volume and in value. This export averages 200 million pounds annually of solid high hprotein food With proper methods of conservation the salmon canning industry of Alaska and the Pacific Coast will continue to produce this substantial food supply the American public and the world markets in perpeuity"
 McGovern stated that official statements on the importance of the Pacific Northwests canned salmon industry and the value of canned salmon food being carried in nationwide stories.
 The National Canned Salmon Week committee chairman also quoted from message from Douglas Mckay, secretary of the interior as refectng the spirit of the entire industry behind this program
 Secretary Mckay stated
 Tn my part of the country, the Pacific Northwest keenly aware of the tremendous importance of canned salmon both as industry and as food The cooperative project this year to pubcize canned sal will be welcomed by all those who know the rich food values provided by this delicious harvest from the sea-"

Four Major Bills
(Continued from Page One)

Continued from Page One) the Fairbanks -Nenana Highway, if federal funds become available, as proposed in President Eisen- hower's budget message, the ter ritorial money would be marked for the Fairbanks Cinema Hot Springs Highway.
 Boat Harbors and Harbors (in- troduced by Rep. Burke Riley D-Haines)-With the flow of fed eral money into Alaska diverted to military projects, the surplus in the territory's treasury should be considered as source of funds.
 Such funds should be supple mented by Alaska public works matching money and by local matching money, where available. Any one project would be limited to $10O,O0O.
 Military Code Bill Cby Rep. Yer non Metcalfe, Juneau Democrat both a National Guard and un- organized militia would be set up. They would be under an adju- tant general, with an Army briga- dier generals salary.
 Virtually all e-bodied men would be included in the unor ganized militia, which would be subject to emergency call if the national guard is taken over for regular Army duty. The militia would be subject to call by the governor in an emergency.
 Special Legislative Districts Cby Reps. Wendell Kay, Harry Palmer and Irene Ryan, all Anchorage Democrats)-Each section of a judicial division should have a member in the House, instead of all, or almost all, the House mem bers from a division coming from cities like Anchorage and Fair banks.
 In the Second Division, it would provide for representatives on this basis:
 Noatak-Kobuk-Fairhaven Re cording Districts; one generally from the north part of Cape Nome Recording District; one from the south part of the Cape Nome Re cording District, with the 64th Latitude as dividing line.
 Other Bills

WEATHER BUREAU
ADMITS SURPRISE
AT HEAVY RAIN

Last nights deluge of rain
was not expected by the
Weather Bureau.
Showers had been pre-
dicted most Of yesterday as
q cold front moved toward
Washington from the Mid
west, bringing rain with it.
The showers were to have
ended early this morning.
But during the late after
noon and evening. weather
observers at the Washington
National Airport said, a low
pressure area over the
middle Atlantic States began
building in intensity, and
heavy rains began to fall as
it moved north along the
coast.
This, coupled with the cold
front. the Weather Bureau
said, was responsible for the
heavy fall of 40 inches here
during the night and early
morning. 3

Keneipp Loses
Hack Control

Traffic Director George E.
Keneipp today lost his battle
to retain control over the issu-
ance Of licenses for taxi drivers.
Responsibility for licensing
hackers was shifted to the Police
Department by order Of the
District Commissioners, it was
announced by Godfrey NJ.
Thornett. secretary to the Board
of Commissioners.
The decision settled a dispute
before the city heads yesterday
when Mr.. Keneipp said he had
changed his mind about sup
porting a previous agreement on
the change in procedure.
The reshuffie came as q re-
suit Of a study by the Manage
ment ONCE Of the Department
of General Administration, under
the program of reorganizing the
District government.
"A report by Management ON
Ger w. K. Holl had recommended
Capitalization in a single de-
partment Of all functions relat-
ing to taxicab license issuance.
Until now, examinations for
would-be taxi drivers have been
given by the Police Department
but responsibility for final APP
proval belonged to the traffic
director. Under the new setup,
this win be shifted to the chief
Of police.
The action followed approval
yesterday Of Q list OF qualifica-
tons for taxi drivers to guide
licensing procedures in the fu-
ture.

Townsend Drives Off to See Mother,
Keeping Secret Of His Romance

said Capt. Townsend intended to
spend the week end with his
mother at her cottage in Somer-
set, about 100 miles out Of Lon
don.
A member OF the Marquis
STAFF said the captain was ex-
pected back Monday afternoon.
Meanwhile, excited, chattering
crowds lined up outside Princess
Margaret's house for q glimpse
OF the beautiful girl whose ro-
nance has captured the heart
and fancy of the worlds millions.
1t was here that she met Capt
Townsend last night for the first
time in two years. And right OF
wrong, the conviction spread
through Britain like q runaway
wild fire that the Queens 25-
year-old sister had agreed to
marry him.
Exactly what went on when
Margaret and the captain met
again was q deep dark secret.
Dead silence continued In Official
circles.
For all anybody outside the
inner circle could tell with any
certainty, the Princess may have
said YES" mo" or Tets Just be
friends"
But Capt. Townsend. asked

after his visit whether he was
happy. grinned at newsmen and
said: YES"
With only that cryptic Mono
syllable and the fact Of the
visit TO go on. much of the
British public was sure the lid
would come Of soon on a happy
ending to the reported royal
romance.
The general guess was there
would be a public statement
amy time now and not later than
the opening OF Parliamentary
tober 25---that the Princess will
dafy the opposition OF the
Church Of England TO wed the
divorced father Of two children
whose ex-wife Is still. living.
The. Evening News said an an
|nouncement would be issued
soon, and It was generally be-
lieved that II there is an en-
gagement. Queen Elizabeth will
tell Prime Minister Eden about

turns from her Scottish holiday,
The Speaker Of the House Of
Commons would then read the
announcement TO Parliament
