WSCS Members To Urge
Congressmen To Approve
Alaska Mental Health Bill
The Women's Society of Chris
tian Service of the Methodist
Church discussed the Alaska men
tal health bill now in committee
and pending congressional ap
proval and went on record as ap
proving and desiring to assist in
its passage by writing to Con
gressmen in the States from which
each individual member origin
ated.
The members realize the need
of the passage of this bill so that
persons with mental ailments
may be classed as sick people and
given aid through the assistance
of competent, trained personnel,
rather than be judged by a jury
and treated as criminals in our
jails, as they are handled now.
Those not knowing their Con
gressmen were urged to direct
their letters to Delegate Bartlett
who would pass them on to the
committee in charge so that action
might be taken.
It was suggested that Congress
men who had visited Alaska on
various committees during the
past year would be especially in
terested and probably lend a sup
porting vote if contacted.
The names of these Congress
men may be obtained from the
Chamber of Commerce.

House Action To Be Asked
On Bill For Govt. Controls
Over Speculation In Coffee
WASHINGTON, 1ST—Rep. Angell
(R-Ore) said Thursday he will ask
early House action on a bill to
impose government controls over
speculation and futures trading in
coffee.
Without a record vote or debate,
the Senate voiced approval of the
measure Wednesday, apparently
reflecting nationwide concern over
recent increases in coffee prices.
Angell said he believes govern
ment regulation “would control
any skulduggery or price fixing
in coffee.”
Angell said his bill is identical
to one sponsored by Sen. Gillette
(D-Iowa) and approved by the
Senate.
It would add coffee to a list of
some 20 other food and farm pro
ducts in which trading is super
vised by the Commodity Exchange
Authority, under the Agriculture
Department.
Exchanges, commission mer
chants and floor brokers dealing
in coffee futures contracts would
be required to register and the
CEA could prevent “such unde
sirable practices as manipulations
and corners.”
Nome Chamber’s Annual
Banquet Be Held Feb. 24
The Chamber of Commerce an
nounced at their noon luncheon
Tuesdaj" that the annual banquet
would be held on Feb. 24.
Guests at the luncheon included
Ronald Johnson of the' Burroughs
Adding Machine Co., Art Johnson
of Alaska Airlines out of Unala
kleet, and Tom Compobasso, op
erations manager for Alaska Air
lines.
Art Johnson gave an interesting
talk on the aims of Unalakleet for
the coming season. This was fol
lowed by a roundtable discussion.
A. Polet, reporting on his recent
trip to Juneau for the meeting of
the Alaska Visitors Assn., was en
thusiastic of the prospects for the
coming season.
Polet stated that with Alaska Air
lines’ interest in the tourist field
this year and with the large field
of visitors in the Anchorage area
from which they may draw, the
estimated number of visitors to
Nome this season will be 4,000—
about double last year’s total.
Plans must be made, he said, to
accommodate these people, so that
good reports on this area may be
furthered.
