WRITES FROM NORWAY
A letter from Mrs. Finn Bruun
dated August 14 from Trond
ihejm, Norway, was recently re
ceived in Nome by Mr. G R.
Jackson of the Miners and Mer
chants Bank. Mrs. Brunn, the
former Edith McHouston, was as
sociated with the bank personnel
several years ago.
She states that: “When the war
broke out in April we moved to
the country and have been living
there ever since. Everything is
pretty normal and quiet around
here now. We are not looking
forward to the winter. It is long
and dark here anyway and when
there is no coal to be had and
the town is unlighted it won’t
ibe a very pleasant place to live.
Thank goodness we have wood
enough in Norway so we can
have some kind of a fire. Altho
it doesn’t work so well with cen
tral heating. The darkness is the
worst. No one will dare go out in
the evening. Then, of course,
there is an air raid occasionally.
I must say I have lived through
some!
There are rumors of peace in
the air. I wish they would be
come a certainty. So much gets
ruined and so many people lose
their lives.
We lead a quiet life, but are
getting along fine. As yet there is
no food shortage. Although some
things are rationed. No one is
allowed to drive private cars and
business cars are on gasoline ra
tions.
I don’t know what kind of stor
ies you get in the newspapers ov
er there, but I hope they aren’t
too alarming. Everything is real
ly quite normal.”

Famed Writer
NEW YORK, Oct. 5 —The Brit
ish writer H. G. Wells said on ar
rival at New York that he is
supremely confident Britain will
win the war with Germany.
Wells arrived on the liner
Scythia for a stay of about 10
weeks in the United States. The
writer said the German air raids I
on Britain had not killed as j
many persons as are killed an- i
nually when the United States!
celebrates the Fourth of July.
Wells said he would rather see i
the United States remain out of !
the war and give only material j
aid to Britain.

SAYS BRITAIN CAN HOLD
OUT AGAINST NAZIS
SAN JOSE, Cal., — An aviator
who enlisted to fly planes for
Great Britain, Fred O’Hanlon,
has returned to his home for a
leave of absence, firm in the be- j
lief that Britain will be able to
hold out against Germany.
O’Hanlon said that there is
plenty of food available in Eng
land, and that London is so large i
that the damage from bombing
attacks has been comparatively
small.
Said Hanlon: “I think the peo
ple of England would like to see
Hitler make an attempted inva
sion. They believe he hasn’t a
chance of winning.”
