He denounced the suggestion there there would |have to be an increase of 60 per |cent in both freight and passenger irates. and declared this would re- |sult in the shutting down of many |industries in the rail district. “ Exception Is Made | In the general policy of the na- Itional administration of opening up |public building projects to provide {employment during the current |period of depression, an exception |has been made in the case of the iAlaska Railroad, Mr. Morton charg- {ed. Early this year, when it was |recognized by the nation that un- |employment was going to be wide- iSDI'eEd and constitute a major prob- lem, President Hoover promised to éld Papers for sale at Empire Offic ~Ithrow open all possible public build- ing, road construction and other € |activities supported by public funds to relieve unemployment.

As &' result of ‘orders fssued at that time, Mr. Morton asserted, the General Manager of the Alaska Railroad, in kepeing with the ad- ministration’s policies, opened up new work that was not absolutely essential, nor, in fact, contemplated in the normal rail program. Men the shops and for other construc- tion work. In some instanes labor- ers were brought from the States because the labor supply was in- sufficient in Alaska. the course of carrying out a na- tional policy, are discharged with= out warning and thrown on the communities of Fairbanks, Nenana, Anchorage and elsewhere in the rail section at a period of the year when they cannot possibly obtain employment. “Today this is the one Federal branch where the Gov- ernment has broken faith,” he de- clared. Protest Being Made The whole situation was charac- terized by him as absurd. He said Ancorage and other rail towns are protesting against the curtail- ment of operations, the dumping of idle men on local labor mar- kets, and the proposed raise in rates. He asked for, and said it was confidently expected, the as- sistance of the local Chamber in making the protest effective. Compliments Juneau Heartily “Juseau is one of the livest and most progressive cities on the Pa- cific Coast,” declared Charles R. Settlemier, former Dawson news- paper man and now engaged in mining in the Mayo district. “It is the greatest little town in the world,” he added. It's gold mine is prosperous, it has no unemployment, its prospects in the projected wood-pulp devel- opment, its fur-farms, fishing and other industries all make it a great community. He gave a brief review of activities in Mayo for which he predicted a great future in the silver-lead mining industry. Any material de- velopment in the interior, he point- ed out, is bound to be of some benefit here and elsewhere on the coast.
