(SMALL RETURNS SO EAR
RECEIVER FOR SUBSCRIPTIONS
PAYMENT AIRMAIL
Todate small returns have been
received as a result of the appeal
to the public by the Northwestern
Alaska Chamber of Commerce, for
a 'subscription to defray the ex
press charges on sending the ma'l
to and from Nome by airplane.
Several very direct appeals have
been made during the past week
or two and only a few concrete
returns have been received. It
appears to us that the move’ de
serves better consideration by the
public as a whole, than what It
has already received.
The matter is vitally important
to the welfare of this district; to
TRae--. the mail cleared from the
office here and also brought to
Nome, as rapidly as possible un
der the circumstances. The months
of August and September are two
months during, which considerable
ordering of supplies is done. If
.., .'
the mail does not move quickie
and efficiency it is a foregone con
clusion that is is going to prove
to be a deterant to this region.
With progress already reported
Jin all lines of development work
in mining it' would tfe a serious
set-back if supplies, machinery
and etc., did not get here until
the season was entirely over ad-1
the freese up was upon us.
The same holds true of the
business concerns not only i'l
Nome but all over the Secon 1
J Division. If their orders do not
contact vessels sailing from Seat
