ft ORGANIZED
At the regular meeting of the
Nenana Commercial club, held last
night, the question of the formation
of a central commercial body, to be ■
known as the Alaska Chamber of j
Commerce, for the purpose of rep- !
resenting the interests of all the
commercial bodies of Alaska, was
again brought up and discussed at |
! some length.
For the purpose of eliciting the j
i views and inviting suggestions from j
I other commercial bodies, the secre-.j
| tary of the local Commercial club
\ sent the following letter to all the I
iother commercial bodies in Alaska:
"Xenana, April 26, 1919.
[“The Commercial Club.
“Dear Sirs: In an endeavor to
| secure prompt results for the terri
i tory and its interests, the sugges
tion is made that the commercial
j organizations of Alaska arrange for
the formation of an Alaskan Cham
j ber of Commerce to represent the
' interests of all.
“As a tentative plan the Juneau
chamber might elect a certain num
ber of their organization to act as
a permanent committee or head
quarters, with arrangements for the
attendance of local delegates later
' as circumstances might or might not
warrant.
! "An essential to this plan is the
! putting into effect of special rates
by the government telegraph service
; on telegrams between our local or-.
: ganizations. and between them and j
i our delegate in Congress and rep
: resentatives in Juneau, etc.
j “By such means, without great
, expense, such a central body could
keep in constant touch with the
* whole territory, and take appropri
i ate action.
i “We are not married to any defi
nite plan, and invite your sugges-|
j tions along these lines, in an at- j
tempt to bring the matter into i
shape for definite action.
“Yours truly,
“THE XEXAXA COMMERCIAL
CLUB,
“By H. B. JOSEPH,
“Secretary.”
It is expected that definite action
will be taken after the other com- I
1
mercial bodies have been heard ;
from.

MUSKRAT HUNTER IS
WOUNDED SLIGHTLY!
At about 10 o'clock last night,
j w hile out hunting muskrats in a
i slough about two miles above town,;
! Albert Magee, an Indian, was shot
I accidentally by his companion,
i Magee would appear to have
; been in the way when the other
1 man was about to take a shot at a
i muskrat, and is reported to have
i called out to him not to fire. The
: warning apparently was received
: too late to prevent the shot,
i One of the pellets entered Al
; bert’s cheek and two others pene
j trated his arm to a slight depth.
1 The man who fired the shot is said
j to have been about 50 feet from
(Albert at the time.
