CONGRESS MAY HEAR
 ABOUT ALASKA LABOR

Congress will be asked this fall to investigate labor conditions on the government railroad, according to current rumors on the streets of AL aska towns.
 It is alleged that mostly aliens are being employed. Seattle unions have adopted resolutions concerning this report.
 In fact, different people have inti- mated that they intend to call the at tention of congress to what they term discrimination. If there is any fire in all of the smoke that is being raised concerning events to the westward, where Uncle Sam is beginning his first big railway project, it may be- come very important part of con- gressional sessions next session.-Ju- neau Dispatch.

SEATTLE COUNCIL HAS
 GIVEN LANG A CHANGE.
Chief of Police Severely Criticized for His Conduct in Cabaret
 and Elsewhere.

SEATTLE, Sept. 22.-Chief of Police Lang has been given another chance by the city council and he will probably continue to retain his posi- tion at the head of the police force. The council has just concluded it's in- ve5tigation of the charges against him and has severely criticized his actions but refuses to ask the mayor for his dismissal. Lang was accused by the Seattle Star some time ago with noisy and unbecoming conduct in a cabaret in this city, and with ac- companying female singer of the cabaret to her room in the early hours of the morning. The criticisms by the council, it is thought, may have the effect of causing Lang to resign anyhow.

Good Housing Sunday
Talks Reach Many


Housing Sunday was observed by
a number of ministers throughout
the city yesterday, special sermons on
the great need for better housing con-
ditions in Bridgeport being given at
the morning and evening services
The theme of the various sermons
was that the standard OF living of
hundreds of families in this city may
be raised by better housing condi-
tons. Many of the pastors had
made a Summing expedition last week
under the direction of Leete B. My
ers, secretary Of the Good Housing
association, and their talks were fill
ed with descriptions of the sights
which they had witnessed.
Several hundred girls listened with
interest to the lecture given by
Lannes McPhetridge. at the Y w. c.
A in the afternoon. Nearly 100
views OF wretched conditions in this
city were shown contrasted with the
splendid housing conditions Of the
workers of the u. S. Steel corpora
ton at Gary, Ind, and of working
men in other places. Five different
miniature houses ideal for the work
ing man. which were the work of Ar
chitect Leonard Ashei1n of the Hous-
ing association, were shown at the
lecture. Mr.. McPhetridge empIa-
sized the Importance of the home to
the young women, telling them that ii
was the most valuable possession a
girl could have.

HALE ANTICIPATES
BIG PEACH CROP


J. H. Hale, who stands at the head
among the peach growers of the coun-
try, was seen recently by a reporter,
whot asked him the chronic question
a, sto what were the prospects for the
peach crop. Mr.. Hale said that the
situation had never been more prom
Using here in Connecticut at this point
of the year than it is to-day AS for
Georgia, he said there had been a
steady down-pour of rain there for
some months, but, as the ground had
been suffering for moisture for sew
era1 seasons, he thought that this
soaking would about restore the equil-
ibrium. He said the wet season had
set back work on the Georgia. trees
about a month, but that would not be
felt in the harvest. Mr.. Hale also
said that it was seldom indeed, when
the Connecticut peach buds were de-
stroyed by frost after January had
gone by. He looks forward to a. sue
cessfu1 fruit year.
