Young Scientist
Took Own Life
On Alaska Glacier
FAIRBANKS, W)—A brilliant
young scientist who died last
Monday high on an arctic glacier
in northern Alaska was reported
Saturday to have lain down in the
snow lightly clad “seeking self
destruction.”
Dr. Richard C. Hubley’s death
was ascribed to suicide by How
ard F. Currie, commander of the
Arctic Aeromedical Laboratory a^
Ladd Air Force Base here.
Currie said the 31-year old geol
ogist simply walked away from
the glacier camp wearing only the
lower part of a suit of winter
underwear and his boots.
Two hundred yards from the
hut where he and three fellow
scientists had lived since April,
Hubley lay down in the snow and
permitted himself to freeze to
death, Currie said.
Hubley, a University of Wash
ington graduate who had been
living in Washington, D.C., was
coordinator of all this country’s
glacial research in the Northern
Hemisphere as part- of the Inter
national Geophysical Year.
The lonely camp where Hubley
died is only 60 miles south of Bar
ter Island, in the Arctic Ocean,
and 67 miles west of the Canadian
boundary.
Hubley, unmarried, is the son
of G. Carleton Hubley, Tacpma.
Improvement Seen in
Availability of Mortgage
Financing for Homes
PHILADELPHIA, U?> — Federal
Housing Commissioner Norman P.
Mason indicated Saturday there
may be some improvement soon
in the availability of mortgage
financing for homes.
“I do not think easy money is
in the cards for the immediate
j future,” Mason said, “but I do
| think there may be improve-1
I ment.”
In a speech prepared for the |
National Retail Lumber Dealers
Assn., Mason said “There is no
question about there being a mar
ket for houses today.
“Never was there a time when
more people had incomes that
make home ownership possible.
They sell themselves when the
quality is good and the financing
is sound.”
Mason said the housing indus
try is faced with the challenge of
providing a large volume of
homes priced within the range of
the average family’s income and
financed with long-range safety
features.
