raked by violent gusts reaching
135 mph. and interior western
valleys of the state were buffeted
by squalls of more than 60 mph.

man for Tacoma city light.
In Seattle, seven persons were
cut by flying glass as the gusty
wind smashed a number of store
front windows.

Supreme Court Hears
Arguments On Closing Of
Gold Mines During WWII
(Washington News Letter)
By Mary Lee Council
Secretary to E. L. Bartlett,
Delegate to Congress from Alaska
The Supreme Court heard argu
ments last week on the closure of
gold mines during World War II,
and it is expected a decision will
be handed down at an early date.
In 1952 Congress enacted leg
isation to allow claims to be filed
in the Court of Claims for alleg
edly unlawful shutdown of gold
mines under what was known as
the War Production Board Limit
ation Order 208. The order was
issued in 1952 and rescinded in
1945.
Such suits had to be filed by
July 14, 1953. In January of 1955
suits were tried before the Court
of Claims and in February of 1956
the Court ruled 3 to 2 in favor of
the claimants. The federal gov
ernment appealed to the Supreme
Court.
