INTERESTING TOPlC UP AT
LAST MEETING
At the last meeting of the year
' 930. the Seward Chamber of Com •
merce held an interesting meeting
and faced the prospect oi the com
ing ve-r with a spirit of optim
ism not apparent for months. Re
cent good news about projected
activities in the Seward district
was reflected in the pep of all the
membra and an abiding faith that
1931 will see a vast improvement in
Seward’s fortunes.
With President Leon Urbach in
the chair and Secretary Leonard
Hopkins at the announcing end, a
number of important communica
tions were read which provoked
much discussion.
There was a letter from the
Seattle Chamber of Commerce an
nouncing rowing race plans at the
University of Washington. The
‘Huskies” have a fine crew in
prospect and the shell they will
use will be made of Alaska timber
as well as the oars. It was propos
ed that all Alaskan organizations
take immediate steps to get in
touch with the university athletic
-directors, particularly Earl F.
Campbell, post-graduate director
in a unanimous demand that the
shell be named “Alaska.” It was
pointed out that it would give
great publicity to the Territory.
The chamber immediately v?ent on
record directing that such request
be forwarded immediately
The Fishing Vessel Owners’ As
sociation of Seattle sent a com
munication and resolution protest
ing against the activities of the
Foreign Relations Committee of
Congress in attempting to arrange
an international agreement of Ta
bulating tj?e fisheries. It was
Clown Suits for rent at S2.50.
Urbach & Valade
pointed out that the United States |
the largest producer and consume! !
of sea products would be giving,
voice to Canada and other I
countries in the regulation of an
important industry which is most
largely our own national affair.
The chamber adopted this resolu
tion and instructed the secretary
to so notify the fishermen.
From Salt Lake City, Utah, came
a communication from Wolf Bros.,
Inc., old established fur house ask
ing for particulars regarding the
leasing of islands or other lands
for fur farming. There were other
letters from Utah asking about
business opportunities here.
A telegram by Associated Press
from Seattle was read explaining
'that Dean Patty of the Alaska
School of Mines had advocated be
fore the Seattle mining club a sug
gestion that an exploration com
pany be organized be Seattle fin
anciers for the development of
small mining properties in the Ter
ritory. W. T. Perkins, club presi
dent, fell in with the idea immedi
ately and proposed that a group
of men of wealth be organized to
handle preliminary explorations
and then ask public investors for
assistance after the most promis
ing properties could be selected. It
was immediately voted to com
municate with both Patty and

The reading of this telegram
precipitated discussion of the pro*
posed smelter now being promoted
at Anchorage and the possibility
of concentrators, or sampling works
or a customs mill at Seward.
There was a long communication j
from the Chamber of Commerce of
the United States asking for eo
peration in securing national laws i
