To The Editor:

I received very sad news yes terday when I heard on radio newscast that Emily Boucher had passed away in Seattle, Wash. would like the readers of the Mug get and citizens of Nome to know what this loss of a true friend means to me personally, however 1 feel that in this letter I am ex- pressing the general feeling of the citizens of our city who knew Mrs. Boucher personally, in busi- ness, and as a very helpful. civic minded, Christian living woman.
 l arrived in Nome alone, on July ', 1859, leaving my family tenn porarlly in Anchorage wit h friends, and having believed that God was leading my wife and l to Nome to do His work. I landed here dressed only in tweed suit, no hat, no coat, and began walk Ing up and down the streets of Nome in a cold rain and tramping across the muddy Front Street (no pavement them trying to find an empty house for myself and my family, in a town I knew abso lutely nothing about, nor did I know one single individual here.
 Finally I saw the Nome Nugget. went in inquiring for the Editor. Mrs. Boucher introduced herself, with a great big smile, which 1 have never forgotten, and asked me what I was doing in Nome. I explained the situation. She said:
 MT. Leight, you're getting wet, don't you have a coat?" I ex- plained that it had been much warmer when I boarded the plane in Anchorage earlier that morning Mrs. Boucher directed me to an empty building, that she said was for rent, and told me whom to contact. I did just that, and today that building is our church build ing. Without the friendliness and courtesy offered by Mrs. Boucher, I would have had rough time in a strange city. As I left her office that first day in Nome, she called to me:
 If you need any more help, don't hesitate to call again" Since that day she has been a true friend to myself and my wife, always willing to help in any way pos sible. Many times I have been in her Nugget office on business and heard her explaining directions and giving freely of her time to help others, like she did me when first arrived in Nome.
 will miss Mrs. Boucher, and so will my wife. She has been a real friend to us, and she was a woman that, regardless of how busy she was, she always had time to stop and talk, and always with that long-to-be-remembered bright smile. She loved her city of Nome, as did her father, MT. A. Polet, whom I never had the privilege to meet . but wish I had.
 She never wanted nor expected praise, but was always anxious, willing, and ready to lend a hand wherever needed She loved flow CTS, and last summer as my mother from Florida visited us she brought

The State of Alaska, Department Of Public Works, Division of Aviation in- tends to negotiate a contract for rental of construction equipment to be used Tn accomplishing bush airfield projecs at Nightmute and Tanunak. Alaska and will receive proposals until Aug. 15, 1863.
 Nightmute and Tanunak are neighbor- ing communities located on Nelson ls- land and are approximately l30 air miles west of Bethel.
 The work at Nightmute will consist of borrowing hauling and placing an es- timated l5.O00 cubic yards of fill mat erial The material is believed to be primarily silt and will be placed in an overlay on tundra and muskeg. Length of haul to the nearest end of the land ing strip will be approximately 1000 feet As the overlay progresses, the length of the haul will increase.
 The work at Tanunka will consist of grading a crowned landing strip having tight, well competed surface using the gravelly material at hand on the site No estimate is made of the quan- tity of material to be moved but the work should be easily and quickly ac- | complished.
 No further information is available concerning these projects, other than the verbal clarification that may be obtained | from personnel of the Division of Avia- i tion. IL is the intention of the Division of Aviation to field design the projects. The work will be accomplished by the contractors forces under the supervision of the Division of Aviation
 Proposals should list the construction 1 equipment available, together wit h hourly rental rates for each type of equipment. Rental rates should include cost of operation, fuel lubricants and 1 incidentals. The contractor will be ex- l pected to house and feed his crew if necessary. Proposals should also list | size, capacity, model, etc and the es- , timated condition of the equipment l available. It is believed that the mimi mum equipment necessary is two bull- dozers equipped with craWler tractors 1 similar in size to the Caterpillar D-8
 together with one tractor drawn scaper
 of at least l2 cubic yards struck capa-
 city. Costs of transporting the equip
 ment to the sites may be included ir
 the rental rates proposed. or a flat rate
 for transportation of equipment may bt
 be quoted.
 Proposals will be opened on Angus
 IS. 1863 in the office of the Director
 Division of Aviation, 523 Eighth Avenue Anchorage, Alaska. The Division of Avi
 ation will evaluate the proposals re
 ceived and will negotiate a contrac
 with the firm submitting the best pro
 posal.

To Barrow a Phrase
 And No Pun Intended

PITTSBURGH - Word games played with Alaska place names have won a United Air Lines employe a Northwest Orient Air lines trip to the Orient, in an interline contest put on by the NWA sales department.
 Mary Alma Lapsley answered a number of questions correctly per taining to Northwest's Alaska jet service out of Chicago and Seattle Tacoma, then-as part of the con- test requirements-Wr the fol- lowing article about Alaska:
 Have lots of film in your KODIAK when visiting the FAIRBANKS of Alaska :. you'll be photographing awesome ice bergs, glaciers and mountains. And did JUNEAU this is the anglers paradise? Trout and sal mon are so abundant it's catch as 'KETCHIKAN.' Or YUKON pan for gold, hunt big game and watch ivory being carved. With little ANCHORAGE -ment, E k i m o s perform native dances.

Gruening Asks President Take Action to Keep Russ Fish Boats Out of Alaska

WASHINGTON R - Sen. Err nest Gruening has asked President Kennedy to take prompt and wig orous action to keep Russian fish ing vessels out of Alaska waters and arrest violators of the three mile limit.
 In a telegram, Gruening said two protests by Gov. William A. Egan to the State Department against the invasion of Russian boats seem to be unavailing.
 The Russian wh a e catchers, Gruening said, are faster than any Coast Guard or naval vessel in AL askan waters. He renewed his plea of a year ago for assignment of two destroyers to patrol duty.
 "These violators could be ar rested and brought to trial, and this cannot be done with the ln- adequate naval and Coast Guard equipment now available" the senator said. He added:
 q find it difficult to see how we can be asked to sign a treaty which implies friendlier relations with Russia when the Russians are now continually violating inter- national law and other treaties re- specting our waters"

Demand Proof Test Ban Increases US. Security
By ERNEST B. VACARO

WASHINGTON R- Republi- cans are demanding President Kennedy prove his claim that the limited nuclear test ban treaty will increase US. security.
 The proof will be sought when military and scientific experts are questioned in hearings on the treaty, said Republican Leader Ev- erett M. DirkSen of Illinois.
 In sending the pact to the Sen ate Thursday, Kennedy said the ban on atmospheric, space and underwater blasts twill assure the security of the United States bet ter than continued unlimited test ing on both sides"
 The United States could make further progress in it's weapons program if atmospheric tests were continued, the President said, but ''so would the Soviet Union and, indeed, so could other nations"
 He continued in the 1,500-Word message: Tt should be remember ed that only one atomic test was required to complete the develop ment of the Hiroshima bomb. Clearly the security of the United States-the security of all man. kind - is increased if such tests are prohibited"
 Underground tests are not bar red and the President has said they will be continued.
 In Washington, Moscow and London Thursday, officials of 34 other nations signed the pact. It is expected to pick up more sig natures today and Saturday. The State Department says 62 nations have announced they intend to sign and more than 100 are ex- pected to do so eventually.
 Dirksen made his call for proof of US. security after Sen. Barry Goldwater, R-Ariz., told the Sen ate that the record on which the treaty must stand or fall has yet to be made.
 GoldWater said the Senate must act on facts, not on assumptions, hopes, fears and fantasy"

Highway Departments New Money Management Plan Now Operating

The Alaska Department of High ways is now one of eleven states that has developed it's financial management program to a degree whereby the Federal Bureau of Public Roads pays reimbursible funds each month as bills are sub mitted.
 Before development of this pro- gram, the State was required to wait-sometimes as long as three years-for the BPR to audit all the records before payment could be made. This is of serious con- cern for state agency that spends $40 million a year of federal re- imbursible funds.
 The new program will replace state money sooner; this creates a fatter bank account for the state and releases this money for other uses.
 It was realized that there was a need to do something about the m e t h o d of accounting that was being used, and Gov. Egan re- quested an appropriation by the 1862 session of the Alaska State Legislature to get the ball rolling to develop new system. This ses- sion appropriated S100,0O0 to en- ploy a firm of accounting consult ants to coordinate state employees efforts toward a concurrent audit program, and an additional $43,350 for the Department of Highways to implement the system.
 But this $143,35O will be re- turned many times, according to Highways Administrative Director Richard c. Berg, mot only in sav- ings to the state by eliminating a cumbersome accounting system, but by freeing state funds that would otherwise be held up until the federal government completed it's audit
