CITIZENSHIP IS DENIED
EVADER OF 1918 DRAFT
_
Because he evaded the draft in j1
the last war and later perjured!
himself in relating the circum
stances, Oscar Hjalmar Ped'rson
recently was denied citizenship
in the Juneau District Court.
Pederson, former subject of'
Norway, had the right under the j
act of Congress to turn in his
papers for the purposs of avoid
ing the draft. When he applied
for citizenship two years ago,
however, he testified that he was
drafted but that the armistice
was signed before he could be in
ducted into service. A checkup
with the War Department show
ed this was not so.

INSPECTOR REPORTS CAA
BEAMS “ON THE NOSE"
“Beams" emanating from radio 1
range stations in operation by the
Civil Aeronautics Administration
in Alaska are virtually “cn the
nose." |
Inspector Jack J. fiord, patrol
pilot for the CAA, vouched for I
the accuracy of the directional j
radio signals in Fairbanks, when!
he arrived there on a periodic'
check of the range station’s op-1
eration.
Jefford reported the past six
weeks, which has included the
breakup period, brought no ap
preciable aberration in the tonej
signal which literally pulls pilots J
into port “by the ears." Jefford
said this was the period which,
might have shown the greatest1
variation in ground conductivity.!
Radio range stations are now in j
operation or nearing completion |
at 14 widespread points through
out the Territory — Fairbanks,1
Anchorage, Talkeetna, Summit,!
Nome, Ruby, Mos'is Point, Mc
Grath, Ketchikan, Petersburg,
Juneau, Kainets, Yakutat and
Cordova.
