Ask Council To Apply
For Survey by Engineer
Of Sanitation Problems
It was announced at the Cham
ber of Commerce noon luncheon
yesterday that the City Council
would be asked to apply to the
Territorial Department of Health
for a survey by a territorial sani
tary engineer of sanitation prob
lems such as rat control and
sewage disposal as a preliminary
step in planning permanent im
provements for the city.
The Chamber also received a
communication from Delegate E.
L. Bartlett that the White Moun
tain school will definitely be
closed at the end of the school
term. Bartlett advised that the
reason for the closure was that
the department felt that children
would benefit more by remaining
in their respective villages, where
it is planned that additional
teaching services will be added
so that they may receive train
ing through the eight grade in
Alaska Native Service schools.
Children without homes will be
taken to Mt. Edgecumbe and
cared for, and a day school will
be retained in White Mountain.

Mayor Jones Addresses
Home Arts Club On
City Government
Mayor Jones was guest speaker
at the Home Arts Club last even
ing which met at the home of
Mrs. Roy Wall. His subject was
“City Government.”
Mr. Jones gave a short history
of city government since the town
started in 1900 and discussed some
of the present problems concern
ing the modernization of its nec
essary facilities. He said the need
for sewers was paramount and he
proposed a piece-by-piece ap
proach to improvement rather
than tackling the overall job at
one time.
He gave his view on why Nome
should not take advantage of
funds available for this purpose
on 50-year loan or, in his words,
“two percent money.”
In relation to the coming ses
sion of the legislature, Mayor
Jones made it clear that he “in
tended to use the scissors” on ap
propriations for many boards
