NEW OFFICERS
ARE ELECTED
BY
' The Cordova Chamber of Com
merce, at a well-attended meeting held
last night, elected the following of
ficers for the ensuing year:
President—George C. Hazelet.
Vice President—A. J. Adams.
Treasurer—H. C. Feldman.
Secretary—Edward F. Medley.
Board of Trustees—Malcolm Brock,
A. J. Adams, T. J. Donohoe, H. A.
Slater, J. L. Galen, Caleb Corser and
H. G. Steel.
Falcon Joslin was chosen as coun
cillor to the National Chamber of
Commerce, to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of D. A. McKenzie.
It was decided to again get busy
and endeavor to secure the erection
of Cordova’s public building this year,
for which an appropriation of $100,000
has been made, and the money is now
in the treasury of the government and
available. The plans have been drawn
for the structure but the architect re
fuses to go ahead with the work, as
he claims the amount is not sufficient
to complete it. T. J. Donohoe was ap
pointed a committee of one to at once
get in communication with Delegate
to Congress Grigsby, in the hope of
securing some immediate action.
A communication was read from the
National Chamber of Commerce re
garding the erection of a building of
a permanent headquarters at Wash
ington, D. C., to' cost approximately
$2,500,000. The drive for this move
ment takes place next week, and'as
Cordova’s allotment has been placed
at $100, that amount was subscribed
by the local chamber.
The handling of the mail between
Seattle and Alaska ports by freight
was severely criticized, and as a con
tract service w?ith the steamship com
panies seems to be the only hope for
a more frequent and quicker delivery
of the mail, a committee consisting of
J. L. Galen, N. Greene and A. J. Ad
ams was appointed to look into the
matter and endeavor to secure relief
from the second assistant postmaster
general.
The Aero Club of Seattle is inter
ested in trying to secure an airplane
mail service from the East to Alaska,
and outlined its plans in a lengthy
communication. The Manila Chamber
of Commerce also advised of its ef
forts to secure a new commercial cable
from the Pacific coast to the Orient.
Hereafter the Cordova Chamber of
Commerce will meet on the first
Friday of each month.
