May Build Bridge
Yet This Summer

Although the chances for doing
so are very remote, it is barely pos
sible that we will build the bridge
across the Cinema river at Fairbanks
yet this summer, was the state
ment of Col. Wilds p Richardson
to The Citizen yesterday.
In explaining such a statement
Col. Richardson said that the money
for the bridge has already been
apportioned. and that plans for the
structure are now under way. When
it was firse announced that the
bridge would be constructed this
summer, it was stated that it would
be a suspension affair. Since that
time it was decided to put in a
truss bridge Whether it can be
manufactured Outside and shipped
north in time for installation before
the close OF navigation this year,
is the question.

Canadian Mines
Employ Ieutons

FERNIE, B. c., June 20,-The
mines in the vicinity of this place
which have been shut down since
the war started, have resumed OPP
erations. All the men employed in
the mines are Austrians and Ger
mans.
1t is explained by the management
of the mines that the reason why
the Teutons are employed is be
cause they are more familiar with
that kind of work. 1t was decided
that it would be best not to EN-
ploy any British subjects to work
with the Teutons, as otherwise trou-
Die might result.
