Gissberg, manager of the Juneau | ffice of the Territorial Employ- nent Service said today. Workers akoard Westward bound estels have come ashore to in- juire about job possibilities, he | :aid. They evidently stayed by their | snips ‘when they learned of the | mployment situation here, and went on to flood on the Anchorage market. Employment is beginning to loosen up a bit, after the stiffest winter in many a season, Gissberg | said. Private and governmental con- | struction work will bring openings | a number of skilled and un- | skilled laborers within several !,\l’(k) Construction on the new | Zommunity Building has employed good sized crew, and with the | seginning of road work, there will e a reasonable number of work spenings, Gissberg said. | civil engineers with highway ex-‘ i‘,eutnce are in particular demand sy the Public Roads Administration | and the Alaska Road Commission | »r work throughout the Territory. | Engineering aids will also be needed | ater on, he said. { ccasional openings are available | for deck hands on government tugs oing to the Westward. On the feminine side of the em- rloyment picture, there is an ilmost continual demand for ex- perienced stenographers and senior clerks, but demang for waitresses, sales clerks is sporadic. Summing up the employment picture ‘here, Gissberg said that | things are picking up very slowly rom the tough winter. There is no surplus of jobs available, and still | -onsiderable unemployment. ———————— NATIONAL GUARD ALASKA PROGRAM or Lt. Col.. Joseph D.
