I DUE TO THE TREMENDOUS DEMANDS
of the
National Defense Program
Deliveries of equipment and supplies for
commercial use are increasingly uncertain. Price
advances appear inevitable.
It is just GOOD BUSINESS PROTECTION
to place orders NOW for your 1941 season re
quirements.
Full descriptive information and prices now
available.

U. S. Marshal B. B. Mozee.
Chairman of the Infantil Paral
\ >is Campaign Fund for this sec
. i n, reports that approximately
$2t5 has been subscrib d so far
in Nome with Little Creek not
reported as yet. Other towns in
hi ocality which will doubtless
•end subscript ons her: are: Can
dl\ Kotzebue, T.llcr, Haycock,
F rtuna Ledge, Unalakleet. and
Golovin.
Due to the prevalence of influ
enza in Non e it was d cided not
to hold a ball on the President’s
birthday this year. Since there
:e no expenses to be deducted
m the amount subscribed this
y ar the proceeds have exceed
.1 those of any previous year.
One ha f of the total amount col
lected will be forwarded to na
tional headquarters and the re
maining half will be credited to
.he local fund.
Contributing to fchs fund for
tire campaign against infantile
para ysis is vastly inmpo-rtant as
it is in a very worthy cause. It
1 is understood that the number of
cases of infantile paralysis thru
out the country during the year
1940 exceeded the number of cas
| s in 1933 and 1939 together.
Anyone who was not personal
ly contacted by the local com
mittee and who desires to con
j tribute to this fund may do so at
the U. S. Marshal’s office.

At katalla
CORDOVA, Jan. 29 — The 65
f:ot vessel Tukamo bound for
Kcdiak from Seattle was wreck
ed on a bar near Katalla Sunday
night. The four survivors are
sale ashore yesterday after a
i vain attewpt to save her. The sur
1 vivor’s names are unknown.
D. tails are scanty as the only
| contact with Katalla is by the
Cordova Air Service radio and
i reception is poor.
The ship was storm ridden
Sunday and was blown into the
vicinity of Katalla which is un
! sheltered. It tried to get out but
| was blown in again in the dark
; ness and snowstorm. When they
1 tred to anchor out lin:s, the gear
! froze and the decks were icy and
they were unable to drop the
: hook until they were in the
breakers. The cr.w stayed on the
! ship trying to save her but she
broke up and is a total loss.

well over 300 during the next
two weeks.
