Sanitary Land Fills Proposed By Nome C of C

At at the regular weekly meet ing of the N w. A Chamber of Commerce, President Jim Walsh introduced a discussion of a prof ect that has been considered in previous years and which is still considered to have merit. This is the possibility of retaining land around Nome by mean of sani- tary land-fill. Various sites for such a project were discussed and Don Hungerford and Wilbur Arnold were asked to follow thru with the City Council. The board of directors will draft letter to the Council endorsing a sanitary land-fill project.
 A letter from Allen D. Hulen, regional administrator of CAA, to Pan American AirWays, was read It described the proposed repairs for Nome Field. Bill Barber, CAA station manager at Nome, stated that the work is expected to con- tinue into the 1858 summer sea son, with drainage the first con- sideration. The two runways will be narrowed to a width of 150 feet, he said.
 Continuing the discussion of the annual city cleanup, Dr. Fred Langsam pointed out that the beach at the King Island Village is badly in need of attention. The Chamber will suggest to the City Council that this area be cleaned up.
 A guest at the meeting was Roy Snyder, maintenance supervisor for the CAA.

 State Department Press Officer Lincoln White said about 10000 American citizens and their de- pendents are on the island. Those include $500 with the Defense Department, Foreign Aid Admin istration, US. Information Agen- cy or State Department.
 l.5oo Not in Government
 The remaining 1,50O are mis- sionaries, businessmen and others not connected with the govern ment.
 The Pentagon previously indi- cated it was going ahead with plans for a small reduction in the 2,500 military personnel on For mosa. Plans call for a cutback of about 600 men, largely among Army personnel in the US. Mill tary Assistance Advisory Group.
 White reported that any cut back considered by the State De- partment would be in the $500 government personnel and de- pendents rather than the 1,500 private American citizens.
 Take Another Look al NATO
 The State Department report came as Secretary of Defense Wilson said the demonstrations on Formosa ''highlighted the need for the United States to take another look" at the military pro- gram of NATO.
 He made the statement to the Senate Foreign Relations Com mittee after first declining to say whether US. aid to the National ist stronghold should be curtailed as a result of last weeks out burst.
 Under questioning by Senator Capehart R-Ind, Wilson said the For1nosa incident had mot made any big change in the reasons for our being" on Formosa.

 Formosa as Result of Rioting

WASHINGTON, R-A State Department spokesman said yes terday the United States is "ac- lively considering" a reduction in the number of American civilian and military personnel and their dependents stationed on the Chi nese nationalist stronghold of Formosa.
 Officials said that obviously this consideration is one result of last Fridays anti-American riots in which several persons were hurt and the embassy and other US. offices ransacked.
 Living Standard Resented
 In the State Department there is reportedly strong feeling that the Chinese on Formosa deeply resent the number of Americans there and the living standard pro- vided by their relatively higher

THE GOLDEN JUBILEE Carl

TIE GOLDEN
It's revolution on wheels boldly planned
from the very beginning a Golden Anniver-
sary showpiece for Pontiac and General Motors.
This one you really must see-here is car unlike any
you have ever known! This Golden Jubilee Pontia,
is actually an allnew breed of cars-in four brillian
series and 16 sleek models covering virtually every
price bracket.
In all of them you'll find engineering advances SO
daringy different yet so basicay sound that they will
trigger the next big change in automobile design
You'll find few of these ideas illustrated here, but
even they can't begin to tell the full story.
Why not be among the first to discover the newest.
When you meet this bold new Pontiac you're in for
driving thrill that is impossible to duplicate in cars
of conventional design. So make it point to your
Pontiac dealer and prove to yourself that
in history ever left yesterday so far behind!
