Attorney While kidnaping has not yet come to Alaska, a “parrot-nap- ing” case was reported to the United States Attormey's Office here today. Jim Howard, resi- dent of the local Indian village, sought the aid of that office in recovering a parrot which he told Assistant United States Attorney George W. Folta had been taken away from his house Sunday evening. He said the deed was per- peirated by an Indian woman whom he knew by sight but not by name. Her husband, he add- ed, is named Harry, but he didn“t know his surname. Howard said she entered his cabin and grabbed up the par- ret, a box of bird seed for food and a sack of sugar and rushed out. He gave pursuit and she dropped the sugar but fled with the bird and its food. Just why the parrot was; taken, was not clear. Howard, at any rate, has nct recived any demand for a ransom payment.
