THE ROUGHHOUSE BOYS ARE IN TOWN
THE NEXT STEP
THE MEMBERS OF THE Chamber of Commerce
enjoyed a tourist tour last Monday noon as guests
of Wien Airlines. They were treated as tourists by
tour guide Willie Brown who took them from the air
port through the community and down to King Island
Village.
The Chamber members learned that over 2,000
visitors had taken the tour this summer and spent
an estimated $100,000 in the community. The tour was
informative and many residents learned things about
the town in which they live that they had not known
before. They also saw things as the tourist sees them
and parts of the trip were a revelation in unsightliness.
King Island Village, with its gayly painted cot
tages, was a pleasant surprise for many on the tour.
Chamber President Pearse Walsh, at the close of
the tour, called attention to the proposed PAA jet
flights now being planned to go around the world
through Fairbanks. This is big business as it will re
quire two and a half million gallons of jet fuel a
month. If these 16 flights a week materialize there
will be about 1,800 visitors in Fairbanks every week
from all over the world, the year around. This would
mean that tourists from every place on the globe
would be taking a side trip via Wien’s to Nome in 1961,
and not just in the summer but 12 months of the year.
This possible stepped-up program should be an
incentive to do some cleaning up of rubbish on the
outside of buildings; and another would be activation
of the movement to get water and sewerage for the
community.
How can capital investment oe encouraged n rne
community itself does not strive to improve itself?
How can the community take part in the progress
of the new state unless those living in it are willing
to take part in making a healthier community?
The Chamber of Commerce and the City Council
can’t do it. alone. There are residents in the town who
are qualified to assist who could volunteer to help,
if they would, and their assistance would be of value
on a special Water and Sewerage Committee to get the
job under way. The original survey has been made
and financing is the next step.
The Chamber of Commerce of the U.S. says that
as recently as fiscal 1958, the latest period for which
figures are available, more than two out of every five
retail corporations in their income tax report showed
no profit at all
Conspicuous By Their Absence
THERE ARE OVER 700 children in Nome School.
Every child has a pair of parents. Allowing for
some large families, there should be not less than 200
parents at the PTA meeting tomorrow evening.
PTA is not just for a few public minded persons,
and a few parents who are interested in seeing that
their children have the opportunity of the many priv
ileges available in this day and age for the youth of
the community. Parents who do not know the teachers
of their children are depriving their children of a
fuller cooperation between the school and the home.
Parents who do not attend the PTA are not keeping
informed on the needs and problems of our growing
school.
Parents who do not attend will be conspicuous
by their absence.
Little Notice Paid
K’s Mile-Long
Caravan to Country
GLEN COVE, N.Y., Ufi — Pre
mier Khrushchev ducked away
Saturday from the turmoil of
Manhattan—much of it created
by himself the past week—for a
weekend interlude in the quiet
luxury of a one-time American
capitalist’s Long Island estate.
To make the 25-mile trip from
his quarters in New York City,
the ruler of more than 200 million
Russians had to ask and get spe
cial permission from the Ameri
can State Department. It had re
stricted him to Manhattan.
Khrushchev brought along a
huge party of lesser-light Russians
and leaders of Soviet satellite na
tions. The group drove here in a
43-car motorcade stretching more
than a mile along parkways clear
ed in advance and given an extra
ordinary land and air guard.
Hardly anyone took the trouble
to watch the motorcade pass dur
ing the trip through one of the
most heavily populated sections
of America.
From the few who did there
came occasional boos and shouts
such as “you murderer!”
Mayor Joseph Suozzi had asked
Glen Cove’s 24,000 residents to re
frain from any demonstrations,
saying:
“We will be courteous and po
lite, but we don’t intend to give
him any favorable treatment or
hang out flags for him. He might
think we are extending a wel
come.”
Suozzi, in business life, oper
ates shoe shops in New York’s
Rockefeller Center.

Newark Newspaper
Discontinues Norman
Vincent Peale's Column
NEWARK, N.J., UP>—The New
ark Star Ledger said today a
weekly column, “Confident Liv
ing,” by the Rev. Norman Vincent
Peale, would be discontinued un
til after the presidential election.
In an editorial, the newspaper
said: “While Dr. Peale's column
is inspirational and in no way re- |
fleets a political viewpoint, the
fact remains that he has become
involved in a political situation.
Continued publication of his col
umn may be misconstrued as re
flecting a position in that contro
versy.”
Dr. Peale was present at a
Washington meeting of the Na
tional Conference of Citizens for
Religious Freedom which issued a
statement questioning whether a
| Roman Catholic President could
resist pressures from his church.
