Catered at second class matter October 14, IMS, at the
post office at Nome, Alaska, under Act of March 3, 1819.
Another Step Ahead . • .
r)MOKROW evening Nome takes another step
in becoming a modem community when the
Nome Telephone Go. cuts over to dial phones.
Yes, we will miss the intimacy of talking with
central and tracing down our friends when they
are not a home through the operator, but we’ll
soon get used to the convenience of the dial sys
tem, and the quiet efficiency and privacy of the
automatic phone.
The owners of this new telephone system
have worked long and hard for several months to
make this installation possible. Their foresight ins
planning ahead for the Nome of tomorrow ex
emplifies the spirit of true Alaskans which they
are. Their faith in the belief that Nome can only
grow one way and that Northwestern Alaska will
continue todevelop steadily is expressed by their
tenacity in overcoming obstacles probabj^ not en
j countered elsewhere and solving them when they
develop.
This kind of thinking will provide a road con
necting Nome to the rest of the world; paved
. streets throughout the community; modem water
and sewage; improved defense installations on the
trade routes to the East, and many other kinds
oif progress.
Our congratulations to the owners of the
owners fo the Nome Telephone Co.

State Chamber
Postponement of Repaying
Unemployment Debt
JUNEAU lm — The State Cham
ber of Commerce Wednesday
urged Congress to okay a bill
which woud permit Alaska to
postpone repayment of its unem
ployment security debt to the
Reed Fund for one year.
The Chamber made its views
known in a wire to Rep. Wilbur
Mills, chairman of the House
Ways and Means Committee,
which is considering a bill intro
duced by Rep. Ralph Rivers to
postpone the Reed Fund repay
ment.
Mills was told in a telegram
signed by Don Dickey, manager
of the State Chamber, that more
time is needed to accumulate
adequate reserves for repayment
of the debt, which amounts to al
most $9 million.
The state’s reserve unemploy
ment security fund amounts to
only approximately $3.5 million,
far short of the amount needed to
pay off the federal debt, Dickey
told Mills.
