NEW YORK — Herbert
Hoover celebrated his 87th birth

soft.
The people, he said, are “as
deeply patriotic as they’ve ever
been.”

Waldorf-Astoria Hotel Wednes

Nome Firm Loses
Ownership Rights of
Buildings at Unalakleet
OLYMPIA, Wash. — The
Washington State Supreme Court
ruled against a Nome, Alaska,
firm Thursday in a dispute over
ownership rights of certain build
ings used in the construction of
the Unalakleet radio station in
1955.
In a 5-0 departmental decision,
the court said the Lee Bros.
Dredging Co. of Nome failed to
live up to its contract with the
Anderson Construction Co., Inc.,
of Washington State by not erec
ting housing facilities and a mess
hall for workers at the site on
Norton Sound.
The high court upheld the de
cision of Pierce County Superior
Court Judge Bertil Johnson in
which he affirmed the right of
Anderson Construction Co. to take j
over ownership of the buildings.
The court said the Nome firm
had agreed to transport certain j
surplus buildings at Marks Field
in Nome and erect them at Una
lakleet.
However, the firm only de
posited the buildings on the beach.
The Anderson Construction Co.
then took over title to the build
ings and finished the job.
Let Dad Help Out With Baby Care
Weekends are a time fathers can enjoy activities at home,
and while doing so, take over some of the tasks which are
necessarily a part of running a household. If a new baby
happens to be a family member, the man of the house may
enjoy making up the newcomer’s formula. It’s a good possi
bility the baby will be drinking evaporated milk, since many
doctors prescribe evaporated milk formula to get youngsters
off to a healthy start. Directions usually call for the addition
of water and a form of sugar to the milk. Carnation evaporated
milk is a widely suggested brand of milk for infant feeding
... a fact which has long associated the Carnation Company
with the pediatrics field.

Egan Takes Strong
Seeurity Measures
Throughout Alaska
JUNEAU (.'P — A tense interna
tional situation has prompted
Alaska’s Governor to take strong
security measures throughout the
vast state.
Gov. Egan, Monday issued a
directive outlinging procedures to
be followed by all state person
nel observing unusual movements
of foreign ships, planes or per
sons which might have some
bearing on national security or
be in viola* ion of state or federal
law.
The Governor’s directive fol
lowed by one week a request to
the State Department to increase
patrol activities by the Navy and
Coast Guard of Alaskan waters
following a report of a Russian
and a Japanese vessel being ob
served within Alaska’s territorial
waters fishing along the Aleu
tian Chain.
Egan said that it is within the
realm of possibility that the fish
ing operations could be a cover
up for the for the placing of
electronic gear in the area that
would relay information to the
Russians.
Egan said in his directive: “In
view of the present international
situation and Alaska’s geographi
call location, it is urgent that the
proper military authorities and
the Governor be notified immedi
ately following the detection of
unusual activity by foreign ships,
planes or persons. The sequence
of reporting will save valuable
time and aid in averting possible
disaster.”
