To the Kind People of Nome:
It is ve il a great deal of regret

pend operations tor a year or

To ail who have helped us in
i s work, we say a hearty and
I: nee re "Thank You." begging of

Chamber Holds
Noon Luncheon
A meeting of the Northwestern
Alaska Chamber of Commerce
was held at the Nevada Grill at
noon yesterday with Dr. Thomas
Mcreom pr siding as chairman.
Secretary A. Polet read a com
I munication from the secretary of
:r.s Alaska Miners Association a:
Fairbanks with reference to the
resolur.ion passed by the local
Chamber opposing the bill now
t fore the U. S. Congress propos
ing changes to be made in the
Organic Act of Alaska. It appears
that the residents of that Division
are also in opposition to the bill
and that they believe there
should be “no change without a
majority vote of the. people.”
Dr. Morco.m delivered a very in
foresting talk on the ancient
ruins which he visited this win
ter near Mexico City. He declar
ed that Mexico has more prya
mids than any other country and
that those which he visited were
biult previous to the 13th cen
tury. “One of the things that in
terested me most,” the Doctor
stated, “is that the people thrre
are similar to our Eskimos. They
take, things easy, are not aggres
sive; they accept things as they
come; and they go through life
as comfortably as they can with
out expanding much effort.”
COURT CRUISE SENDS
HAIDA TO WESTWARD
Bound for a court cruise to the
Westward and to the tip of the
Aleutian Peninsula, the Coast
Guard cutter Haida left Juneau
for Seward May 28.
Commanded by Lieut. Comman
der H. W. Stinchcomb, the vessel
will take the court party aboard
at Seward and will continue on
its cruise.
The Haida will sail direct to
Seatte from the Aleutians and
will take on supplies and return
I to Juneau which will be during
the first week in July.
