NOTICE
You and each of you are urged
to Dial 2414 and report anyone
seen scattering nails about on
the public streets in the City of
Nome. Parents and guardians are
requested to instruct their chil
dren that such conduct endangers
the lives and properly of all per
sons.
Sunday afternoon a car over
turned with five people in it! The
accident was caused when the
driver lost control because of a
flat tire. Inspection of the tire
revealed that the flat was caused
by a galvanised nail—like those
being found in other flat tires
and those found scattered about
on our public streets. Arrange-l
ment of these nails on the streets
indicate they are purposefully and
willfully placed there!
We hope that this is not being
done by a member of YOUR
family. We hope that a member
of your family is not an accident
victim as a result of this foolish
ness.
Further assistance can be given
by everyone by reporting to Po
lice locations of these galvanised
nails either that you pick up or
placed on the public streets.
