On The Status Of Some Arctic Mammals, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

The mammal fauna of arctic Alaska is comprised of about thirty species, most of which are widely distributed. A few of these are essentially nearctic species, having extended their range northwestward during post-Pleistocene time. The majority, however, consists of forms which are either circumboreal in their distribution, or which have closely-related palearctic counterparts-considered specifically distinct hy most North American mammalogists. Sorne of the foremost Old World workers, however, do not agree that Bering Strait constitutes a barrier which effectively separates the Old World fauna from the New.

Studies On The Helminth Fauna Of Alaska. Xiii. Disease In The Sea Otter, With Special Reference To Helminth Parasites, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

During the spring of 1951, the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service undertook the removal of sea otter, Enhydra lutris (L)., from the Aleutian Island of Amchitka, for the purpose of restocking range from which the animals have long been exterminated. The decision to undertake this activity was influenced by the nature of military operations planned for the island later the same year. The capture and removal of the otter were under the supervision of Mr. Robert D. Jones, Biologist, U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Heavy losses among the animals shortly after capture made the venture unsuccessful. Many deaths …

Fm 30-16, Technical Intelligence, 29 June 1953, Robert Bolin , Depositor

United States Department of Defense Military Intelligence

This is the first US Army manual on technical intelligence. The concept of technical intelligence developed during World War II. Technical intelligence doctrine was formalized by a series of army training circulars and other directives. Toward the end of WWII a new army Field Manual 30-15, Examination of Enemy Personnel, Repatriates, Civilians, Documents, and Materiel (June 1954) was issued, but that manual did not reflect the World War II technical intelligence experience or actual army practices. That manual was superceded by Field Manual 30-15, Examination of Personnel and Documents, 27 September 1951 and by this manual.

This manual defines technical …

Waterfowl Of North Dakota, Paul A. Johnsgard

Papers in Ornithology

North Dakota is a great waterfowl state. Within its borders more ducks nest every summer than in any other state. Each fall thousands of hunters share in the excellent duck and goose hunting, and every school child is aware of the immense flocks of migrating waterfowl that are such a common sight. This booklet was written not only to serve as a guide in identifying these birds, but also to point out something of their habits and importance.

Depositor's note (June 2008): Paul seemed delighted when I presented him the source copy of this little pamphlet, which I had found …

Stream Pollution, Ruth Patrick

United States Environmental Protection Agency: Publications

This paper discusses the various ways in which aquatic organisms may be of use in solving problems associated with waste disposal. Since many state and federal laws set forth that nothing may be discharged that is deleterious to aquatic life, the most expedient way to determine the effect of an effluent is to study the aquatic organisms themselves.

In every river that has not been adversely affected by pollution there is a great variety of aquatic life. These organisms do not represent a great mass of living things, but rather they are organized into an intricately balance systems, often referred …

Income Tax-Partnerships — Distributive Share Of Capital Gains — In What Respect Is The Partnership Tax Return More Than An Information Return?, John P. Pfann

Nebraska Law Review

A recent Tax Court decision presents an opportunity to review the function of the partnership in the income tax field. A partnership sold its assets under circumstances where it could have elected to treat the transaction as an installment sale under section 44(b) of the Internal Revenue Code. However, on the partnership return, the capital gain from the sale was reported on the completed 'transaction basis. The partner on his *return reported his share of the partnership capital gain on the installment basis. The tax court held that the partner must report the same distributive share of the gain as …

Recent Cases: Wills — Descent Of Insurance Proceeds Covering Extinguished Specific Bequests, Allan J. Garfinkle

Nebraska Law Review

Two recent cases involving the disposition of proceeds of insurance policies covering property given by specific bequest and destroyed immediately before testator's death reach apparently opposite, but readily distinguishable, results. In a Kansas case a farmer had bequeathed his realty to his children and his personality to his wife. A tornado destroyed the farm buildings and fatally injured the farmer. Held: the proceeds from insurance covering the farm buildings descended to the heirs of the realty. An Oklahoma case involved the accidental destruction of an insured automobile and consequent death of its owner. Held: the insurance proceeds went to the …
