Police Chief Warns
Curfew Will Be
Strictly Enforced
Chief of Police Carl Webb says
that many of the young people of
Nome are taking advantage of the
leniency being shown in regard
to the curfew ordinance, and be
cause some of the teen-agers have
done this, Ordinance 347 will be
strictly enforced from now-on.
Chief Webb said this ordinance
provides that all persons under 18
years of age must be off the
streets by 10 p.m. unless accom
panied by a parent or a guardian.
Infractions of this ordinance will
result in arrest.
The law provides that the par
ents are responsible for the action
of their children with fines set
at $100 and 30 days in city jail.
Chief Webb said he hoped that
the young people will conform so
that it wiLl not be necessary to
hold any in jail.
