Visitors to Nome
Wien’s Wednesday plane brought
not only 11 visitors to Nome, but
also delivered almost a full day
of August sunshine.
Returning here to renew boy
hood memories of those early days
of 1905 when he started going to
school was Mr. J. R. McCune,
accompanied by Mrs. McCune.
Mr. McCune’s father, J. Y. Mc
Cune, was assdciated with George
Prosser and also operated the first
stagecoach line from Nome to Sol
omon and Council. He died in
1912 and was buried in .the Bel
mont Point Cemetery.
Mrs. McCune is enjoying her
first visit to Nome.
•Mr. McCune enjoyed meeting
William Cameron, a boyhood play
mate, and visiting former play
grounds.
The McCunes, of Longview,
Wash., subscribe to the Nugget
and find many items of interest.
Other visitors were Professor
and Mrs. Robert H. Welch, Jr., of
Belmont, Mass. Mrs. Welch was
pleased to find Nome’s Sally Car
righar, as the two wTere school
mates at Welleslv.
Dr. and Mrs. Charles L. Kuhn
came with their two very active
sons, Sparky and Rodger, who be
came honorary members of the
s Nome Visitors Association. The
boys look forward to telling about
their Nome trip to their school
friends at Pittsburgh, Penn.
Mrs. Mary Gaylord, Clear Lake,
Iowa, is enroute home after a
month with her children, the ANS
Alexanders at Norvik. She says
the Kobuk River country is great,
but that something should be done
by the government to improve
the lot o'f the Eskimo people.
All visitors were outspoken in
their complaints of not stopping
overnight or even longer in Nome,
the old gold camp they have
longed to visit.
Recommend Alaska Families
Keep 30-Days Food on Hand
ANCHORAGE, UP) — The emer
gency food committee of the Al
aska Department of Civil Defense
has recommended that all Alaska
families keep a 30-day supply of
staple foods on hand for emer
gency use.
It stressed that keeping a re
serve supply of food is a wise
policy for such a remote area as
Alaska and that tne suggestion
doer not indicate any feeling of
increased seriousne.= 5 in the pre
sent international situation.
The committee recommends ro
tating the food supply to make
sure it stays in good condition.
Poor Season Forces
Cordova Fishermen to
Form Own Cooperative
CORDOVA, UP) — Fishermen of
this south central Alaska town,
in the face of one of their poor
est seasons, formed their own can
ning cooperative this week for
handling the fall run of Coho and
Red salmon.
The action came after a break
down in negotiations with local
canners for a new fish price.
Under the new plan, the fish
ermen will deliver their catches
to the cannery here, where they
will be processed for $5 a case.
The canned salmon will be turned
over to a salmon broker for sale.
The fishermen will pay the reg
ular cannery workers wages.
Combined with one of the poor
est salmon seasons on record, the
failure of the fishermen and can
ners to reach an accord had
threatened this fishing town’s ec
onomy. Only 220,144 cases of sal
mon were put up in this area this
summer. The pack has run to
three times that much in past
years.
Inveniory Blanks at Nome Nugget
Reds Returning
POWs Sentenced
To Prison Terms
PANMUNJOM, UR— One hun
dred fifty Americans rode eagerly
from Red captivity Thursday —
three of them men their buddies
feared would be kept behind in
North Korea after they disap
peared mysteriously from their
prison camps.
One returning prisoner said 45
more Americans sentenced only a
month ago to prison terms were in
the Red grouping center at nearby
Kaesong, awaiting release.
Cpl. Gerard A. Francois, 23, of
Jersey City, N.J., said 30 U.S. en
listed men and 15 officers have
arrived in Kaesong after previous
ly being sentenced by the Reds
and told they would not be re
patriated.
He said the 45 were told in
Kaesong they will be freed—but
only after everyone else.
The Reds had claimed a right
to hold some prisoners on trouble
making charges, but U.S. and U.N.
officials sharply warned them to
free all Allied POWs who want to
return—jail sentences or none.
Thursday’s delivery brough the
number of released U.S. prisoners
past the two-thirds maxk with
only one week of the POW ex
change remaining.
Russia Rejects U.S. Protest
Over Shooting Down Of
Bomber Over Japan Sea
WASHINGTON, 1#)—Russia has
rejected the U. S. government’s
protest over the shooting down
of an American bomber in the
Far East on July 29 and said it
knows nothing of any survivors.
There were 17 crewmen on the
plane, one of them, co-pilot John
E. Roche, was rescued by an
American ship.
In a protest over the incident
lodged with Moscow Aug. 5, the
United States asked for informa
tion on persons presumed to have
been picked up by Soviet boats.
The State Department announced
late Thursday that a note from
the Russians disclaimed knowl
edge of survivors.
Department press officer Lin
coln White said this country
stands on its contention that the
U.S. plane was attacked over the
open sea, about 40 miles southeast
of Soviet Siberian territory.
He said Moscow’s reply, not
made public, said the plane was
over Soviet territory.
White said Moscow reiterated a
demand made earlier that the
United States take measures to
“prevent violations” of Russian
territory by U.S. planes.
