Chamber Meeting Protests
Prepayment of Freight
Charges for Nome Cargo
A large number cf shipper-j
met in the City Hall Thursday ;
afternoon at 3 p.m. on the call
of the sp<.cial Chamber of Com
merce committee appointed fir
Ihe purpose cf investigating the
recent rule put in effect that all
freights on the steamers leaving
Seattle for Nome must be pre
paid in Seattle.
The meeting was cal! d to or-'
dor by President Slack of the j
Chamber, who declared nom na
tions open for chairman of the
meeting. A. Polet was nominal-.
cd and unanimously elected.
Chairman A. Polet, in assum
ing the chair, explained the na
ture of the call and invited all
present to voice their sentiments. !
The meeting was unanimous. The j
statements made were of the sort:
that left no - doubt as to what!
they meant, on motion being j
made which was unanimously!
carried. Resolution ordered)
drawn vigorously protesting the'
collection of freight charges be-!
fore the ship arrives in port, es-!
pecially the payment of lighter- ■
age charges which in no way can I
be construed as ocean freight I
charges. The fact is that charges ;
made for service between ships!
anchorage and shore are nothing)
more than terminal charges such j
as dockage, wharfage, etc. which |
become payable on the arrival j
of steamer in port and the
freight is transfererd to the cus
tody of the Lighterage Co.
The discussion also carried into
the subject of rates. While we
have not received the latest Ai-)
aska S. S. Co. tariff or the I/imen
Lighterage Co. tariff, from ru- !
mors it is ascertained that there j
has been considerable advance in
charges.
Considerable discussion took
place as to proper method of pro
cedure. Several suggested that
an organization to be known as
the Nome Shippers Protective
Association be formed. Others
thought that the Chamber of |
Commerce should be requested ,
to create a Bureau within the.
Chamber to handle the subject.
On motion, recommendations
to the Chamber of Commerce,
were adopted suggesting that a
Bureau or Committee be created
within the Chamber to handle all j
matters relating to the transport j
ation of freights, ocean and ter- 1
minal freight rates and charges. \
