HOLDS ACTICE MEETING
—
The NW Alaska Chamber met
Tuesday noon at a luncheon.
Visitors to the luncheon were
Dun Nunan, Manufacturers’ Rep
resentative, and . Wright, Field
Engineer for the U. S. Bureau of
M.nes.
Mr. Nunan stated his trip was
mere reconnaisance, to see con
ditions in Nome at this time of
year, and to give encouragement
to merchants in their future or
ders.
Mr. Wright said he would be
in the Nome area for about a
month. He stated his past ex
periences this summer took him
into the north country where he
examined the jade and asbestos
deposits in the Kobuk and Noatak
regions.
Mr. Huff of the local Surplus (
Property office announced that!
there would be a sale of food and
clothing for Federal agencies be-1
ginning September 10, and the|
sale would be open to merchants
about October 1.
A. Polet urged that action be;
taken to get a ship with supplies
for Nome before the close of navi
gation. He suggested emphasiz
ing the shortage of supplies for
outlying communities on Seward
peninsula. The vessel now load
ed in Seattle should be released.
Strikers should be made to realize
the situation.
A committee was appointed to
draft communications to officials
who could possibly bring pressure
to bear in our behalf.
Carl Lomen submitted a report
on the harbor, prepared by Jack
Anderson, regarding the loss of
time to ships unloading in the
roadstead, due to unfavorable!
weather.
“How can you cure someone of
snoring?”
“Easy. By good advice, co-oper
ation, kindness and stuffing an
old sock in his mouth.”
