The Daily Alaska empire Newspaper, August 17, 1933, Page 4

THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, THURSDAY, AUGUST 17, 1933. has up to now been turned over to any State or Territory under the straight public works relief section. The Territorial program, as far as it goes, is sound. It does not contain any “pork barrel” items. The several projects are meritorious. They will furnish employment of several hundred men for the next six weeks. That labor employed on them can, under the most favorable circumstances, earn suf- ficient to carry it through the winter is not at all likely. If it is proposed to put into effect in this work the 30-hour work week for common labor, men, all of whom must live in camps and pay board seven days every week, will clear not more than $5 or $6 per week during the period of their employment. Thus, it fs quite evident, that the purpose of the President will be best served by exempting all of these projects from the 30-hour requirement and- permitting & 56-hour work week for the short time remaining in which construction activities can be carried on. It is equally clear to everyone that the public works program does not nearly meet the situation. If Southeast Alaska, the most populous section of the Territory and the one in which unemployment was most serious last Winter and will probably be again next Winter, is to escape really serious human suffering before next Spring, it will be necessary to adopt some projects in this section. Of course, there has been allotted to it and parts of the Third Division the sum of $350,000 for National Forest Highways. Compared to the needs for em- ployment, the quantity of labor this will employ is quite negligible, even if every cent of it should become available for expenditure next Winter. And there is talk of earmarking almost one-third of the sum for future maintenance costs on the Forest Highway system. If no more than $250,000 is to be spent in new work, it will be insufficient to furnish jobs to-the unemployed of either Ketchikan or Juneau, thus leaving no provision for hundreds of the enforced idle there and elsewhere throughout the district. Unlike vast areas in interior and northern Alaska, in this region work in the field is possible almost all, if not the whole Winter season. Long after work has ceased in the Fall in the north and long before it can be resumed In the Spring, crews are busily engaged here. Yet, to date, there has been but $20,000 allotted to public works relief here. To remedy the situation, it is imperatively necessary for a supplementary program to be sub- mitted to the Public Works Administration with least possible delay. There are numerous projects in Southeast Alaska of equal merit with those al- ready programmed and for which funds have been made available. They have the additional advantage of furnishing work longer for more men than is the case in the listed projects. We are certain that Ter- ritorial authorities are already moving along this line. Delegate Dimond has worked hard for the initial program. He will do equally as much for additional projects. ‘ The Administration has shown its appreciation of Alaska's difficulties by its relatively early allot- ment of funds for the original program. It will be found not less responsive for additions to it when they are properly supported as to the need for unemployment relief and the merit of *the projects advocated.

Consumers are to be given up-to-the-minute re- ports on food and textile prices so that they can know what is happening to the costs of the essen- of life. A nation-wide weekly check of prices increases in return to farmers is planned under direction of Dr. Fred C. Howe, Consumers’ Counsel of the Agricultural Adjustment Admin- istration, in cooperation with the Department of Agricultural and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This information will be released to the press and by radio as well as in special bulletins to be sent to all consumer groups and individual who re- quest it. . Protection of consumers is the aim of this serv- fce. In this connection Dr. Howe said: We. are going to do what we can to see tials and the assumed, that its sentiments had official sanction.
