In presenting the charter, Mrs Frank Hermann, local President, and a former National from Raton, New Mexico, said, “w |feel it an honor that the Juneau lunit has been accepted as a mem- ber of the national organization, and we are a unique unit in that we are the first Alaskan unit, as well as the first unit outside of the United ates. This makes another link between the Territory and the States, which some day will mean a link between our 48 states and the future state of Alaska.” | “We accept this charter with the knowledge that we are assuming added responsibilities as individuals and as a club, which will help de- \velop our Territory. Aviation means more to the people of Alaska than it does to the citizens of any state| |in the nation, because of the great- |er distances between communities. |'Therefore it is proper that we, the |charter members of the Juneau unit should take a wholehearted in- taken of |terest and active part in the (uturc' ,development of aviation in the Territory. “As aviation is in its infancy, we; (have innumerable opp()rlun)lms to {help promote what is fast becoming | jour main mode of transportation and by our affiliation with the na- tional organization we shall be able to render greater service to the Territory men’s Aeronautical Association.” | Committee chairmen appointed by Mrs. Hermann are as follows !membership, Mrs. Thomas Dooley program, Mrs. Hunt Gruening; fi nance, ;Mrs. John: Doolin; legisla- tion, Mrs. Geoffrey Goss; publicity, Mrs. Joseph McLean; hospitality Mrs. Marvin Kristan -o Wantads get results!
