 3. It would provide a means to preserve Eskimo artifacts and rel ics of the unique civilization of Seward Peninsula.
 4. It would stimulate the interest of tourists visiting in Northwest ern Alaska.
 S.. It would provide an officially recognized agency for gathering relics and preserving private col lections. Heretofore, museums in other parts of the State and in other states have received all bequests from this area.
 6. A museum in Nome will be a tremendous asset for attracting people to Nome when Highway 97 connects with the Alcan Highway.
 7. Other museums in Alaska possess numerous Eskimo relics from Seward Peninsula which are far in excess of their needs, and these collections could be expected to be donated to a Nome museum.
 g. Now is the time to gather mementoes of the early gold rush days, while there are old-timers around who can tabulate dates and pinpoint events, and while old timers in the States can still be contacted for donations of pictures and other items of historical in tereSt.
 MT. McNees assayed the prob lem of financing such an organi- zation, and said he had written to the Carnegie, Rockefeller and Ford Foundations on this matter.
 Lively discussion was heard on the matter of a feasible site and type of building which could be used for a permanent museum building.
 The feeling prevalent was that any museum would belong to ev- erybody, and Nome people can show their interest by donating private collections, with the as surance that their goods will be protected, and individuals and organizations may have a hand in the building of worthwhile mu- scum by donating their time, tall ents or money to the project.
 Those present at the meeting who offered to help the Chamber committee: Charlotte Hungerford, Ruth Mclean, Louise Walsh, Bon Davis and Dick Strom.
 Another meeting will be called in the near future, at which time representatives from other local organizations will be requested to attend for the organization of the projected Nome an d Seward Peninsula Historical Association.
