CHAMBER COMMENDS
ROAD COMMISSION
A a recent meeting of the chamber
of commerco a committee was ap
pointed to prepare a set of resolutions
expressivo of the appreciation felt by
the chamber toward the Alaska road
commission becauso of its work bn
the trail between Valdez and Fair
banks. The committee at last night's
meeting made its report and the
chamber approved of the resolutions
which were ordered sent to the road
commission and to the war depart
ment. The resolutions follow:
"Valdez. Alaska. Nov. 10. 1U0S.
' 'To
"The Valdez Cnamber of Commerce.
"We, your committee, take this < p
port unity to commend the Alaska
Road Commission for the work which
they have clone on the trails in this
country. We believo that the money
expended by them has been econom
ically disbursed and that they have
accomplished as mueh as any private
individual could have accomplished
with the same expenditure.
"That while we regret that Captain
Pillsbury has been transferred from
Alaska and assigned to other work,
wo are thankful that Major Richard
son and Mr. Orchard are still retained
on the Alaska Road Commission.
"That the work of this Commission
lias been of inestimable value in aid
ing and ragisting in the development
of the great and diversified resources
of the Empire of the North.
"That it seems to be the policy of
the Honorable Road Commission to
expend the available funds for improv
ing the trails on existing mail routes
which we believe is highly commend
able, as mail facilities for the pros
pectors who are doing so much for
the development of the resources of
Alaska are of the utmost importance.
Which mail service now reaches
every community where any consider
able body of citizens is stationed, and
good trails will materially decrease
the cost of mail services to the Post
Oillce Depart ment.
"The work of the Alaska Road
Commission and the Post Ollice l)e
I artnii'Ut are the two governmental
aids that are appreciated by the
people of A lasKa.
"Respectfully submitted,
"Edmund Smith,
"Alvah Eames,
"E. O. Kelscy."

District Attorney CJrossley states
that. Mr. Martin told him that several
members of Mr. Martin's family are

have departed on the Yucatan and
have arrived in Heat tie two days be
fore the Ilertha. However, Mr. Mar
tin, aboard the IOlsic net out in hopes
