From where stand. believe that national work

As far day of prayer assume that prayer

that something tangible than work oppage and

Writing from experience, when Negroes in the south

New Master File Keeps Police Eye
On $4,000 Alaska Auto Operators

Department of Taxation will ex-
pire not on Dec. 81, 1856, as the
licenses say on their faces, out
on the operators birthday in 1857.
This will spread the task of issu
ing renewals over an entire year
instead of Jumping them on a
single date.
Any operator who wishes to do
so may reapply voluntarily to the
Territorial Police now and receive
one of the neW-style licenses at no
cost. The Department has been re-
Issuing about $50 licenses a day.
Applicants with physical disa
bilities are issued licenses with
limitations noted on their face. A
person who is hard of hearing
must have outside mirrors on both
sides of the car, as must a one
eyed driver. A one-legged driver
must have car with an automatic
transmission. Power brakes are
required on the vehicle driven by

Pan Am Traffic Shows
Slight Decrease From
Same Period in 1855

SEATTLE R-Passenger traffic
on Pan American World Always
Alaska routes shows a 2 percent
decrease for the first five months
of 1856 compared with the same
period last year, D. E. McMorran,
regional PAA traffic and sales
superintendent, said here Satur-
day.
The line carried 22,852 passen-
gers on Alaska flights up to May
81 last year and 22,483 through
the end of May this year.
Completion of pulp mill con-
struction in the Ketchikan area
coupled with prospects for a medi-
OGRE salmon fishing season are
adversely influencing traffic, Nc
Moran said.
He added Pan American is
working closely with the Alaska
Visitors Assn. in a campaign to
build up tourist travel to Alaska
to offset the diminishing volume
of commercial travel, especially
to southeastern Alaska.

Outlook Very Good for Presidents
Complete Recovery in Few Weeks

NEW YORK. "a foremost
authority on the ailment affecting
President Eisenhower said Satur-
day he outlook is very good for
the Presidents complete recovery
in a few weeks.
DR.. Burill Groin, the discoverer
of the ailment, ileitis Gll-ee-eye'-
tis), said the Presidents case was
the most common and safest type
and the most easily amenable to
successful surgery. Continued the
doctor:
eff the operation was successful
and I feel sure it was in this
case-the President should be re-
stored to full health, with no dim
unition of his working efficiency"
DR.. Groin said the President
probably would be confined to
bed for about two weeks, and then
gradually could resume his regu-
lar schedule.
DR.. Groin, of New Milford,
Conn.,, who discovered the disease
in 1882, said that the diagnosis Of
a regional, terminal ileitis-ob-
struction of Eisenhower lower
small intestine-was the best type
to cure. He added:
'The man should get entirely
we'll"
He said the terminal, localized
ileitis involved only about eight
inches of the lowermost small in
testine, which altogether is Is feet
long.
He said about 80 percent of the
cases of ileitis were of this type.
Surgery removing the short in
testinal segment of only a few
inches, he said, causes no impair
ment of the patients processes,

leg. Automatic signal devices are
required on the car driven by a
person who is paralyzed in the
left arm.
The territory expects its "get
tough" policy on motor vehicle
operators licenses to pay off. The
rationale of the program, as ex-
planned by Williams, is that states
with such systems vigorously ad-
ministered have been able to re-
duce traffic accidents by 25 per-
cent. This would mean a saving ~
Alaska's motorists of $625,OOO
year in property damage alone at
the present stage of wear and tear
on our highways.
The Nome nugget., 1956-06-11

nourishment or health in general
He said operations of this kind
were successful in IS to 5 percent
of the cases.
AS for the possibilities of the
disease recurring, DR.. Groin said
that this happens to about 80 to
35 percent of those stricken at ir-
regular intervals of time.
But in Eisenhower's case, he
said: Even if there should be re-
currences, they are rather mild"
