Fire Department Plans
Burning Old Buildings
In Fire Fighting Practice
Several partially burned out
houses and dilapitated cabins are
to be burred down by the Fire
Department, with the cooperation
of the owners and the City Health
Department.
The removal of these struc
tures will add greatly to the ap
pearance of the community, and
at the same time give the Volun
teer Fire Department an oppor
tunity for some planned fire con
trol experience.
The buildings in this program
are located in several parts of the
community, and adjacent prop
erty owners will be warned be
fore the fire is started, so that
they will not become alarmed.
Bob Oliver has been retained
by the Public Utilities Board, to

Dr. McKinley Leaving
This Week To Return
About July 18
Dr. Lee McKinley will complete
his second visit here, this week,
and will return to Anchorage. He
expects to return here to continue
with dental work about July 18.
McKinley, who is also a Repub
I lican candidate for the U. S. Sen
ate, stated today that a better
overall representation for Alaska
can only be obtained by having
the Legislators meet in law-mak
ing sessions in different districts
annually. Northwestern District,
he observed, has poor representa
tion because of distance and a
general misunderstanding of the
purpose of how laws are made.
The meeting of the Legislature in
the Northwestern District would
make a better understanding of
the problems to all the Legislators
from other districts.
This belief was expressed by
Dr. McKinley at a recent meeting
of Republican leaders here.
Ralph Chapman, son of the for
mer Agnes Ottoson of Nome, re
turned here yesterday after an
absence of 18 years. He is visit
ing with his aunt, Mrs. Teddy
Reed.
Ralph left here as a child with
his mother and has lived in Fair
banks and Anchorage and on this
trip came from Portland, Ore.
He revealed that his hobby is
writing poetry and hopes to have
a volume of his verse published
soon.
His mother, Agnes Monagle, he
says is well and is working at
the U.S. Public Health Service
in Anchorage.

Alaska Steam Requests
Early Freight Docking
For July Bering Sea Run
The Alaska Steamship Com
pany announces that offerings of
I cargo and deliveries to the load
[ ing dock for the July sailings to
Nome and Kotzebue are lagging
badly.
They urgently request that all
Nome, Teller, Kotzebue and St.
Michael consignees get their or
ders in immediately and if orders
have already been placed, put
pressure on your suppliers to
make delivery to the East Water
way dock as soon as possible.
Last minute ordering and con
gestion on the dock is what causes
delayed sailings from Seattle as
the Alaska Steamship Company
wants to insure that everyone’s
cargo is aboard before sailing.
Yours may be left if the shipment
reaches the dock too late, warn
company officials.
