No. 1 Priority
By RUTH McLEAN
The Monday luncheon meeting
of the NWA Chamber of Com
merce was presided over by Vice
President RuSsell Hermann in the
absence of President Manning.
Mr. Manning is attending a meet
ing of the Alaska Juvenile Board
and later this week will attend
the annual convention of the
Alaska Chamber of Commere in
Anchorage. Other delegates at
tending from Nome will be John

A motion was carried to request
that the Alaska Chamber of Com
merce endorse Highway 97 as No.

will be asked to present a reso

Guests at the luncheon were
members of the Alaska Board of
Pharmacy, who met in Nome this
week. These included President
Monte Gresham of Juneau, Sec
retary Francis Bowden of Anchor
age, Bob Race of Ketchikan, and
Mrs. Race, who acompanied her
husband to visit Nome for the
first time.
At last week’s meeting of the
NWA Chamber of Commerce,
President Manning advised that
a letter had been received from
Dewey Goodrich, who was attend
ing a meeting of the Board of
Road Commissioners in Juneau.
The Chamber road committee met
and again resolved that continu
ing Highway 97 to its completion
was the most important road pro
gram for this area.
Charles D. Jones had just re
turned from the meeting of Pion
eers in Juneau. He was successful
in following the instructions of Ig
loo No. 1 to bring the Grand Igloo
to Nome in October, 1959, and
asked the cooperation of the NWA
Chamber to help with the meet
ing, which may bring as many as
300 visitors to Nome. 'President
Manning assured Mr. Jones and
Igloo 1 that the Chamber will be
happy to help in every way.
