Mrs. Woodiel Will Show j
Alaska Artifacts At
Education Conventions
Mrs. Fannie Woodiel is a state
delegate to two annual Educa
tional Conferences in June. First,
she will represent the Alaska Edu
cation Association at the 50th An
nual Conference on Teachers Edu
cation and Professional Standards,
to be held at the San Diego State
College in California, June 21
through June 24. Then she will
go to Los Angeles as one of sev
eral delegates from the State of
Alaska to attend the 98th Annual
Convention of the National Edu
cation Association from June 26
through July 1.
Each state has space at these
conferences to display the re
sources and culture of the state.
Each delegate is responsible for
his particular locale. Through the
courtesy of the Nome Education
Association, Mrs. Woodiel will
have some gold dust; the Billikin
Shop has contributed a clever
ivory carving to be presented to
the President of the NEA, Dr.
Eshelmen.
The women delegates all plan
to wear cotton parkas on Alaska
Day. From the Junior Chamber of
Commerce here will come attrac
tive circulars bearing facts about
Nome.
If other groups or organizations
have something that will explain
the culture of this vicinity, and
wish to offer it for display, they
may be brought into the Nugget,
to be forwarded to Mrs. Woodiel.

Khrushchev’s Acts
Pose Dilemma for
U.S. Moscow Envoy
By STANLEY JOHNSON
MOSCOW, W) — Premier Nikita
Khrushchev came home Saturday
from a week of diplomatic en
counters that shook the world.
Russians by the thousands were
called out to give him an unusu
ally elaborate welcome, but Presi
dent Eisenhower’s envoy boy
cotted the ceremonies.
Edward Freer, U. S. Charge
d’Affairs said he stayed away be
cause there had been no clarifi
cation of Khrushchev’s news con
ference remarks in Paris Wed
nesday. Khrushchev had likened
Eisenhower to a thief.
Representatives of the other
members of the Western Big
Three, Britain and France, at
tended the ceremonies along with
the rest of the diplomatic corps,
the Communist Party Presidium
and a great crowd of ordinary
Russians.
Hundreds of thousands lined the
road into Moscow to cheer
Khrushchev and show their sup
port for his moves in Paris and
his speech Friday in Berlin.
Freer said only a few minutes
'before Krushchev’s arrival he be
came aware that “some confusion
existed” about Khrushchev’s
remarks. >
“Since no clarifcation was im
mediately possible,” he said, “it
seemed appropriate to me, in or
der to avoid embarrassment for
all concerned, not to proceed to
the airport. I had no time to con
tact the other diplomats.”
Moscow Radio, in an English
language broadcast beamed to
North America, denied that any
cracks in the solidity of the Krem
lin heirarchy led to Khrushchev’s
moves stopping the summit
parley.
“There are no internal difficul
ties or differences in the Soviet
government or parliament,” said
divergences between the position
the broadcast, “nor are there any
of the government and the people.
In the Soviet Union there are no
forces behind the scenes that af
fect the government.”
Khrushchev’s manner at the
airport was calm and smiling.
He flew in from Berlin, where
he cooled fears Friday by saying
the Soviet Union would not press
for a new German status, which
would include the departure of the
allies from West Berlin, for the
next six to eight months.
lln an hour-long speech Friday
to 8,000 Communists in East Ber
lin, Khrushchev repeated his de
nunciations of President Eisen
hower over the U-2 spy plane
incident.
Khrushchev repeated his de
mand that a peace treaty be signed
“with the two German states that
actually exist.” But he made no
threats for the immediate future.
Members of the armed forces
who died at sea are honored on
Memorial Day at some U. S. ports,
where tiny ships filled with flow
ers are set afloat.
