ASK LOWER RADIO RATES
House joint resolution No. 5 in
troduced at the last session of the
legislature by Messrs. Smith,
Lyng, Stangroom and Whalsy,
states that: Whereas, the Nome
• radio telegraph station has been
! profitably operated and maintain
j ed from its inception, and even
with the present improved mail
; service, letter communication en
tails serious delay, rendering im
perative the use of the radio
i service for the transaction of the
major part of the business, and,
we are convinced that the vol
ume of traffic through the radio
j station could be greatly increas
| ed and stimulated by a lower
irate thereby accelerating the in
I dustrial and economic develop
i ment of the Territory, Therefore,
be it resolved that the War De
partment and United States Sig
nal Corps be petitioned to grant
us whatever reduction is com
patable with the splendid ser
vice maintained.
