Three Year Study
The report was assembled
for the department by the APP
piled Psychology Corporation, a
private research company. A
team Of - psychologists studied
the character of two towns OF
comparable size in the same
Northeastern State and COM
pared their traffic safety RED
ords over a three-year period.
Boomtown turned out to be
a bust.
From 1886 it recorded II
deaths and 634 injuries, all
traffic.
In Bustown, during the same
period, 3 persons we're killed
and 430 injured.
The conflicting character OF
the people in the two towns
caused the disparity. the report
said.
For one thing. said the psy-
biologists, Boomtown's "ae-
erosion level was manifested
by competitiveness, bslligerence
hostility and pugnacity. These
expressions we're observed OF

indirectly stated through inter-
views or conversations with
people on the street."
Then. there are higher pre-
MUM rates for automobile in
surance in Boomtown. said the
report. That made car owners
sore.
Poorer, Friendlier
Bustown, on the other hand,
was "a declining community
with less manufacturing than
Boomtown and a higher tax
and assessment rate. Its people,
according to the report. were
older, poorer and not as well
educated. At the same time
they were friendlier, less active
and not as prone to crime.
Bustown's streets were wind
ing and narrow, its hills curry
and steep-jusl the sort of
topography to restrain ebullient
drivers.
In fact. the only blemish in
Bustown's traffic record, said
the report. was its pedestrians
more reckless especially
the small boys. than those in
Boomtown.

Geological Surveyor Arrives for Work Here

Dave Hopkins of the U. s. Geo. logical Survey, accompanied by his wife and son, arrived from
 Manley Springs for some work in this area for a few days MT. Hopkins will be remembered as having been here several sum- mers, and also spent winter in Nome gathering geological data.
 A recent publication in Science Magazine features an article by MT. Hopkins, and is of particular interest to residents here, as it traces the history of the land bridge that once existed across the Straits to Siberia. His research in this area shows how this bridge actually existed five different times in the history of the world, and at these times, land extended out as far as St. Lawrence Island.

CHAMBER MEETING HEARS MONTPELIER ROAD AGAIN DELAYED

The Nome Teller Road, which has almost been" for the past several years, and was scheduled to be worked on this year, has been set aside again until 1861.
 According to a letter read at the Chamber of Commerce lunch con from Vim. Niemi, BPR Re gional Engineer, all 1860 monies will go to maintenance, and the survey made for the Nome-Teller Road was found not satisfactory, hence it could not be included in the 1859 road building.
 The Nome-Kougarok Road is in design, and bids will be asked sometime in September.
 Guests at the noon Chamber luncheon included James Gold smith of Westport, Conn; R. A Findlay of Juneau, and w. s. Busey of Washington, D.
