ER OF ASSOCIATEL S tled to the use for to it or not other- news published TIONAL REPRESENTATIVES — Alaska Newspapers, 1411 Avenue Bldg., Seattle, Wash N ANOTHER STRIKE The shipping situation as far as Juneau is con- 1g beyond the serious stage. Supposedly things were all settled until fateful September, but Jast night when the Baranof pulled into port long- shoremen refused to unload the several hundred tons cerned is gett for Juneau merchants because of ancther dispute over working conditions This hit or miss steamship service which Juneau has had to put up with for almost a year now has cost the merchants and the people of Juneau a good | many thousands of dollars, and it seems ridiculous that it should continue any longer. We face another local strike probably in September and a coastwide strike September 30. It seems to us the best thing to do is to shut the whole port down until the em- ployers and longshoremen can get together and work out terms which will be good for a reasonable length of time. The kind of service we have been getting is worse than no service at all, and no one knows from one day to the next whether a boat headed for Juneau will be unloaded or not. Strangely, Juneau seems to be having much more trouble than other Alaskan ports. Why? | Canadian vessels carry freight to all Alaska stops | but Juneau. The last strike brought about a freight embargo | against Juneau—no other Alaskan port. The Baranof, which couldn’t unload in Juneau last night could unload at all other Alaska stops. O('cupalum Crisis (New York Times) In most foreign countries where the United States soldier was billeted during the war he left behind a fine record of conduct and of friendliness. There were exceptions, of course. There were bound to be with as large a force as we had overseas, some 8,000,000 men But the over-all record was good.
