:. We have no regular mail service. The post office depart ment would be willing to establish a post office on Little Diomede Island, but there is no airline in the area that wants to take on the responsibility of a contract to serve Little Diomede.
 Actually, the weather is better here than on the mainland nearby, but because there are 24 miles of ocean to cross and because the winds are tricky and the water rough in the straits, it is neglected. Also is the fact that in case of poor visibility it is easy to fly a few miles too far to the west and be over USSR territory without knowing it. We heard the other day of a pilot who came down through a ceiling of clouds to find himself on an Al airfield. He went back up through the ceiling fast.

Water Spotting on Floors
If your good water-resist-

to resist water spotting, it
is probably because the floor
was not properly cleaned or
rinsed before the wax was
applied. Do not apply wax
over soapy film left on an

wax when you clean up spill
ed liquids or when you damp
mop the floor with clear

Special permits are re-

Also to be taken into con-

the fact that anything over

must be hauled by truck.
