 Ten nominations for membership to the Executive Board of the Ju- neau Chamber of Commerce were made at the Chambers luncheon meeting this noon in the Terminal Cafe and one additional nomination was made from the floor today Election of seven of the nominees, the number comprising the Board will be held next Thursday and nominations also can be made at that time, it was announced.
 Names thus far placed in nomin- ation include: J. P. Anderson, Charles Carter, T. A. Morgan, R. H. Stevens, w. s. George, Sam Paul, Ed Shafer, R. J. Sommers, Norman Banfield, John Keyser and G. H. Walmsley.
 Resolution of the Fairbanks Chamber to extend the Richardson Highway from McCarty to the Can adian boundary as a tentative link of the proposed International High way was endorsed by the Chamber after it was brought out that such action might tend to bring pressure on the Canadian government to build its portion of the route. Allen Shattuck stressed the importance of mineral development and declar- ed he believed it was one of the most important moves yet made to bring about actual construction of the highway.
 The committee, headed by How @-s Stabler, to bring in a report on the advisability of fur farm exper- mental station in Alaska reported adversely and it's action was en- dorsed by the Chamber. The com mittee contended that the Univer- sity of Alaska was doing all the work necessary in that line at this time and expenditure of money for such a station at this time was un- warranted.
 Pastor H. L. Wood of the Seventh Day Adventist Church entered a written protest against the har- monies he said were emitted from radio station KINY causing inter- ference with radio reception from other points and urged that effort be made to have the station moved outside of the city. He contended that good reception was impossible under the present conditions. Pas tor Wood has an amateur station in his church right near the Gold stein Building which houses KINY.
 Manager c. B. Arnold of KINY replied that the station was doing everything possible to eliminate the harmonics and had cut down much of the interference. He pointed out that Ketchikan had tried having it's station outside of the town but due to slides and floods had been unable to maintain service, later moving back into the city. Similar condi- tions prevail here, he said.
 City Radio Inspector Bill Hixson told of the work the city was doing to eliminate interference. The city recently passed an ordinance which will require every owner of receiv- ing set in Juneau to pay a dollar tax and provides that anyone found guilty of not putting elimination de- vices recommended by the Inspec- tor on any electrical device which is alleged to be interfering can be fined and thrown into jail for 20 days.
 F. E. McDermott of the Rotary Club asked the cooperation of the Chamber in the Christmas window display contest and was assured the Chamber would work with the club. He will meet with the Executive Board next Tuesday to work out details.
 Request from the 40 and 8 of the American Legion that the Chamber set aside canned calmon week to promote the industry was made by John E. Pegues, representing the 40 and 8, and he also will meet with the Executive Board to ar range details.
