Harry Sperling of the United States Forest Service, said that he construed Secretary Wilbur's ad- vice to be directed to persons seek ing farm lands and that there no occasion for action on the part of the Chamber. Immigration Favored Attorney H. B. LeFevre declared young men should be urged to come to Alaska. He explained that immi- gration was essential to the growth and development of the Territory : Charles E. Naghel of the United States Public Survey Office was of the opinion that persons seeking cmployment should be warned against coming North. He said the many . réquests for work made to the ~Survey Office reflected the unsatisfactory condition of the present/ labor market. Mr. Shattuck, in speaking to the suggestion that Secretary Wilbur's .advice was directed to persons wanting farm lands, insisted that even the agriculturally inclined class should not be encouraged to come to Alaska now. “Such set- tlers cannot make a living raising agricultural products,” he asserted, “and in consequence will have to cearch for employment, something they cannot find. The motion for the “strong let- ter” to Secretary Wilbur was unan- imously passed. Mosquito Pest Control A Jetter from O. G.

The fed- next year will be made up this month, and the Chamber was requested to take im- mediate action, M. S. Whittier, chief assistant to he Collector of Customs, favored the proposal, saying that when he was in Fairbanks last year tourists had to curtail visits there on ac- count of the mosquitos. Will Telegraph Approval Secretary Walmsley was instruct- ed to telegraph the Chamber's in- lorsement of the proposal that the yovernment finance mosquito con- trol activities next year. On suggestion of Secretary Walmsley, one half of the Juneau high school graduating class will be the Chamber’s luncheon guests May 21 and the other half May 28. ‘To confer and cooperate with the Forest Service in respect to the preservation of natural beauties along the highway, Allen Shattuck, H. L. Faulkner and Dr. Robert Simpson were appointed a commit- | tee to represent the Chamber. As chairman of the Good Roads Committee, Mr. Shattuck reported that the Bureau of Public Roads had undertaken the improvement cf the Basin Road, and Mayor Thomas B. Judson said he observed the other day that the work had been completed. Mr. Shattuck reported confer-| ences with city officials and private property owners relative to the widening of lower Front Street, without any definite conclusions having been reached. A letter from Delegate in Con-| aress James Wickersham told of the presentation of the Interna- ional Highway resolution to the United States Chamber of Com- merce and of that organization's favorable action in the premises. He added the resolution favoring wider use of silver would be presented to the United States Chamber this week. | nly two entrants are listed for he clean-up prize campaign.
