It would also be of great assistance in sending out emergency calls. Our Anchorage station has been doing very well.” Going to States After remaining in Juneau for the next two months, Mr. Hannon will continue south to the States. He is not at all sure just what he will do after spending his vacation. ‘My mind is on this 27-year-old trip, right now,” he said. In regard to his voyage from Sew- ard to Juneau on.the Gen. W. C. Gorges, Mr. Hannon had praise or the attitude of the crew toward he passengers, though he could not oraise the passenger accommoda- dons. “But then,” he added, “we knew what we were up against be- fore we boarded the ship, and most of us, especially those who had been sut of the cities, had Hved for long periods under much worse condi- JAcns. The fact that we were served good food and that the stewards did what they could for the passen- zers, eased our sitation a great deal. There were some instances where we thought the crew might suspend a rule to our advmantage without harm. ’ “Though 1 saw no incidents of a crew member’s disputing with a pas- senger, it is true that the crew ft- self were split into factions and there were frequent fights between crew members,” Mr. Hannon closed.
