Quick Action Vital “There is urgent need for quick action as, unless we can get North King off to Bristol Bay by Mon- day next, it will be too late for us to get ready for the season and would be necessary for us to dis- charge all these men now waiting transportation. And, as you know, we hire a large number of natives and resident fishermen up there whom we will be unable to take care of. ‘On the Alaska Peninsula we em- ploy over one hundred natives from Belkofsky, Perryville and Unga sec- tions, and unless food and supplies can be gotten up to them in the next few days it will be necessary [ NOW OPEN!

We, there- fore, urge you to immediately see President and ascertain if he will | send the message requesting the release of our steamers North King, Mary D. and Catherine D. for im- mediate loading. We on our part to agree that no one but union men will be employed on those steamers and that we will sign up a year's agreement with longshore- men’s association, agreeing to all of their demands. “Please wire after you have seen the Piesident advising what action he has taken. In addition to the men enumerated above we have crews of about one hundred men on those three vesesls who will also be out of employment unless this matter can be done quickly as we will be compelled to lay the ships up.” Kuskokwim Valley Menaced Wiring from Bethel on behalf of all the residents of the Kuskokwim Valley, the Alaska Trading Com- pany, said: “Miners, traders, trappers and entire population Kuskokwim-Ta- cotna River and Tacotna-Ophir dis- tricts depend entirely for their sup- plies on steamship Tupper now de- layed in Seattle by longshoremen'’s strike. The mining season in these districts is but a few short months at best, and further delay to Tup- per will result in serious unemploy- ment, account shutting down of mines and other industries. “Food supplies are running low, as well as gas and oll. Food sup- plies are transported to the creeks and outlying districts by airplane and outboard motors. Also, airplane transportation must be depended | upon for transporting sick and in- complete | jured from whole Kuskokwim Val- ley to points for medical attention. Jonsequently, gas and oil just as essential as food. We are asked by | the people of this district t6 earn- stly appeal to you in their behalf. Grave emergency will result if ac- tion not taken at once. May we ask that you do everything possible to hasten departure of the Tupper with foodstuffs, gas, oil, and mining supplies.” The Tupper, according to ad- vices received by Gov. Troy on May 18, was released from the strike order by the Seattle unions and was said to have been loading preparatory to sailing on that date. yesterday on receipt of the wire from Bethel inquiring about the status of the vessel at this time.
