Health Official
Pays Visit to Nome
Nell Lomprey of the Health
Education Department of the
State Department of Health and
Welfare passed through Nome on
a visit to villages in this district,
having agents under her depart
ment.
As the Northwestern District
has been without a sanitation de
partment head since Harry Carte*
was transferred to Kodiak, the
village agents who were under
his supervision have had to work
without direction. She praised the
work being done in Unalakleet
by Edwin Katchatag who is also
going to assist in the villages of
St. Michael and Stebbins. At
Shaktoolik she was amazed with
the improvement in the village
since her visit there six years
ago. “Under the supervision of
Lawrence Kayoukluk the village
is kept in orderly and amazingly
clean fashion without rubbish or
debris to be found anywhere. Ka
youkluk is also the medical agent.
From here she will visit in
Kotzebue where Wallace Karmun
is agent on full time basis. He
also serves in several other vil
lages. Oscar Swan is agent at Ki
vahna and Roy Vincent at Pt.
Hope.

Dr. Teller Minimizes
Danger From Fallout
DALLAS, Tex. — Dr. Ed
ward Teller, described as the
father of the H-Bomb, said Sun
day in an interview there is more
danger to future generations from
warm clothing than from fallout.
Tetter, professor of physics at
the University of California, said
there is no danger from fallout
in the United States and none in
the immediate test areas “if tests
are conducted with an eye on
weather conditions.”
Asked about claims that fall
out will affect future generations
by changing the genetics—breed
ing characteristics — of present j
day citizens, Teller said, there
are more physical changes in !
people twho wear warm clothing
than people such as Scotsmen who
wear kilts part of the time.
He said the warmer the cloth
ing, the more body temperature
and its procreative characteristics
axe changed.

Politician Fails to
Keep Campaign Promise—
Voter Takes Legal Action
BONN, Germany UR — It has
happened at last: A voter is tak
ing a (politician into court on a
charge of failing to keep a cam
paign promise.
The stunned politician’s re
action: “Why, I’ve never heard
of a case like it before. It can’t
be legally possible.”
Dr. Manfred Freise, a dentist,
has filed a complaint in court
against Erich Mende, head of the
Free Democratic party, which
won 67 seats in West Germany’s
parliamentary election last month
and gained the balance of power.
Dr.’ Freise said Mende had
promised him and other West Ger
man voters that his party would
never enter into a coalition gov
ernment under Chancellor Kon
rad Adenauer and on this basis
got four million votes.
Now, the dentist said, It seems
that just such a coalition govern-^
ment is about to be formed. 17118,
he said, constituted “breach of
tefth with the voters."
A hearing will be held soon
th Bonn’s lowest court to deter
mine if there are legal grounds
20r Xne Owiptiim.
Dr. Freise said he is not seek- i
ing damages hut only to estab
lish the principle that a politician
can be held to his promises.
