TO THE VOTERS OF NOME
AND THE SECOND DIVISION
Due to a death in the family, my presence
is required in California for the next several
months. I will therefore be unable to return to
my home at Nome in time to actively participate
in the Primary Election of April 30th.
As I again seek reelection to the House of
Representatives of the Alaska Legislature, I
| again ask your support at the polls. As in the past,
I have no axe to grind, am not beholden to any
! special interests, and will continue, if reelected,
to serve the best interests of the majority of our
people.

Grand Jury
Submits Report
I
Following is the Grand Jury
report as submitted to Judge J.
H. S. Morison of the District
Court:
Sir:
In accordance with your instruc
tions to the Grand Jury on April
16, 1940, we herewith submit our
report on the activities of this
body in regard to indictments
presented by the District Attor
ney, the examination of Federal
Offices, and our recommendations
upon general problems.
Five indictments were submit
tel to us by the District Attorney
and were returned as true bills.
The following Federal offices
were visited by the respective
committees and the following re
ports are hereby submitted:
Marshal’s Office
The Marshal’s office was in
spected and found to be in order.
The Marshal offered no sugges
tion for improvement in his office
or equipment and we feel with
satisfaction that the office is be
ing conducted to the credit of the
community and the Second Div
ision.
U. S. Commissioner’s Office
Inspection of the Commission
er’s Office revealed that his re
cords are in order. The commit
tee observed that cracks in the
ceiling constitute a nuisance sin
ce water spilled on the jail floor
from mopping or from shower
baths filters through the cracks
and drips onto the furniture be
low.
U. S. Attorney’s Office
The District Attorney’s Office
was inspected and found to be in
good order. We recommend that
the law library in this office be
completed to include the remaind
er of the National Reporter Sys
tem, the ALR series and the Am
erican Digest.
Clerk of The Court’s Office
We find at this time all filing
vaults and devises are modern
and well-kept. The office is very
well conducted. Both incumbent
officers are well satisfied with
their equipment and had no re
commendations to submit to the
committee. Therefore, in referen
ce to the Land Office and Clerk
of the Court his office is to be com
plimented upon its successful op- i
j eration in the past and at the |
! present time.
Federal Jail
I A visit through the Federal J
| Jail disclosed it to be maintained
| in a clean sanitary and efficient
j manner. It is recommended that
j a dining-room be provided for
jthe convenience of the staff in
! feeding the prisoners if such
I space can be made available.
General Recommendations
It is recommended that gambl
ing, professional gamblers and
slot machines be eliminated from
public houses. It is recommended
that in regard to appropriation
granted this court for relief of
destitutes that the court be more
| lenient in the disbursement of
j the aforesaid appropriation in I
| the future.
j We, the members of the Grand
[Jury, take this occasion to ex
press our thanks and apprecia
j tion to all the members of '
| Department of Justice for the
I Second Division, Territory of A1
| aska, for their help and eoopera
I tion in the execution of our dut
, ies.
Respectfully submitted,
The Grand Jury

Germany Confiscates All Foreign
Workers’ Wages But 10 Marks
The following article is reprint
ed from the Mount Vernon, Wash
ington, Argus of March 28 issue:
LA CONNER, Mar. 28—(BSC)
—Morris Jensen, prominent La
Conner farmer is in receipt of an
interesting letter from his sister
living in Denmark telling of un
usual war incidents in which two
■of Mr. Jensen’s nephews are in
volved.
The two boys left their native
Denmark for Germany, where
they found six months’ employ
ment in making underground
shelters to protect civilians from
air raids. The letter stated that
Germany now has room for 15,
000 shelters in case of an air at
tack. The boys stated that they
had one warm meal a day only,
that coming at dinner time.
Breakifasts and suppers were
served cold.
The two boys got excellent pay
for their work which they com
pleted in their scheduled six
months’ period. As they prepared
to leave Germany, however, they
were allowed to take only 10
marks each with them, not;
enough to get home on. All their
wages except for the 10 marks
were confiscated. Unable to pay
for transportation home with
their small pittance, they were
forced to walk across ice covered
country.
After arriving home they took
a week's rest and then joined the
Finnish army and participated in
the final stages in the war against
Soviet Russia.
