The famed trader and friend
and rescuer of explorer suffered
a heart attack as he sat in his
comfortable home working on his
hobby of Ivory carving, ot which
ne was a master.
And today the white and na

community on the North Ameri
can continent were arranging as
regal a funeral procession as they
could muster.
Death came as Brower would
have wished, tor he once said
that "I wouldn't die anywhere
eise. ne louna we Arctic iriena
ly and profitable and was on
Intimate terms with more famous
personages than If he had stayed
In hla native New York.
Brower had been seven times
around the world as deckhand and
skipper on schooners and whalers
and was equally at home In an'
Igloo or Manhattan drawing
'room, but his visits "outside" be
came fewer with the years.
Autnor oi tne dook "Fifty years
Below Zero," Brower shared. In
many adventures. He was lost
off Point Barrow with 16 men.
He arrived home alone. He once
brought a sailing vessel Into San
Francisco after she had a fire in
her hold for S3 days. The day
after the vessel docked, she blew
up ana same.
- Brower accumulated modest
fortune from whaling and trading.
In his active year he caught
three or more whalea a year, real-,
lzlng from $6,000 to $10,000 each,!

trading posts on the Arctic rim.

650 Japs Moved
To New Location
Klamath Falls,: Ore., Feb. 12
IP) Six hundred and fifty Japa
nese Internees yesterday were re
moved from Tulelake segregation
center by train for an unnamed
justice department Internment
camp. :
No trouble was encountered as
10,000 Japanese gathered at the
gate to bid farewell to the interne
es, 632 of whom had renounced
American citizenship. Others of
the 650 were born in Japan; and
many of them had been members
of Jap "patriotic societies," carry
ing on semi-military drills. .
Their members had also shown
loyalty to Japan in other ways and
were thought to have influenced
other members of the Tulelake
center In the same direction.
Post-war automobile drivers
will probably not use 100-octane
fuel In their old cars because the
engines are not designed to use
superpower gasoline; motor car
engines using 100-octane fuel may
be available several years later.
