MUST HAVE STEPPED ON A
Keep Alaska Clean!
NOME HAS A RIGHT to be proud of its roads,
which are in good condition, and lead out into the
mountains and along its shores in scenic beauty. It
is a pleasure to tdke visitors along the route and
explain its historical significance.
On the other hand, Nomeites have a right to be
very indignant with those residents having no civic
pride, who repeatedly dump their rubbish along the
side of the roads.
A good garbage dump is maintained by the com
munity, not only for the appearance of the roads, but
for the health of^the community. _
It is unlawful to dump garbage any other place.
The old dump at the east end of town is closed. The
present dump is easily found, although unfortunately
is not marked, nor are there markers to indicate where
it is.
It is important that every single person take it
upon himself to see that our roads are kept clean, and
report anyone who does not comply.
FISCAL PROGRESSION
Yucaipa, California, News Mirror
According to the best estimate of the
Treasury Department, the cost of the American
Revolution was $113,600,000.
According to United States Senate supporters
of the Space Exploration bill, it will cost $200,000,
000 to put a man on the moon.
According to the Commerce Clearing House, a'
national reporting authority on tax and business law,
the average American man who is now 29 will pay
in taxes, during the 36 remaining years of his work
ing life, one dollar out of every four he earns, for a
minimum total of $47,221.18. That’s about 1/2400 of
what it cost to make the United States a free and
independent nation.
Q.E.D.
The National Association of Manufacturers states

" to one-twelfth that of the American farm worker.
