Chamber Holds
Noon Luncheon
The regular business meeting
of the N. W. Alaska Chamber of
Commerce met in the North Pole
Baker}' Tuesday Noon.
The following telegram was re
ceived from the Alaska Miner’s
Association of Fairbanks:
“Senator Tydings has wired
that Senate committee begin hear
ings Maty 13 Senate bill 3577 to
colonize Alaska Stop Time so
short that we request you wire
Senator King Chairman subcom
mittee to give earnest considera
tion to material already sent to
Senator Tydings in opposition
this bill and urge them to cause
thorough investigation be made
in Alaska before action is taken
Stop We have wired that pas
sage this bill would spell disas
ter for Territory as we are now
over-run by thousands of men
looking fcr work and Territory
probably have to care for them'
or ship them back to States Stop
Also limited Territorial revenues
would not allow for the large ex
pansion of school facilities that
would be required Stop Allowing
European emigrants to enter A1 i
aska would surely be disasterous. j
On motion the secretary was
instructed to wire Senator King!
opposing the Bill as it is now pro
posed and urging that the mater-J
al sent to Senator Tydings be;
given careful consideration and
that Alaska be given sufficient!
time to thoroughly investigate
the Bill and allow the Alaska!
Legislature at their next session
to have a voice in the matter.
The mail Committee was in
structed to obtain local coopera
tion in remonstration of the de
lay and non-dispatching of first
class mails from Nome to Fair
banks and vice versa. It is hoped
that pressure can be brought to
bear on the Post Office Depart
ment to move all first class mail
offered by plane in addition to
the letter mail that a'ccumulates
at either end.
On motion the transportation
committee has been instructed to
prepare resolutions to be submit
ted to the Alaska Steamship Com
pany protesting the cancellation
of the August passenger boat and
the Arctic Cruise.
The next meeting of the Cham
ber will be the Board meeting to
be held next Tuesday at the Nev
ada Grill.
