City Official Paper
NOME. ALASKA, AUGUST 6, 1915

The stand taken by sam Gompers in regard to the system of Federal in spection of public transportation fla cilities can hardly fall to receive the endorsement of all who have taken cog nizance of the number of fatalities oc- curing yearly on the various marine transportation systems of the cotn n- try; q large portion of which could little more active system of govern mental inspection. The system as it stands is presumed to be the govern ment's guarantee to the travelling public that the various marine transportation lines upon which they may be com pelled to journey are as nearly safe as tl orough inspection and watchful care can make them. yet. scarcely a month passes but some catastrophe occurs, resulting in the death of several or many persons. the primary causes of which are directly traceable to the in- adequacies of the inspection system
 The latest example is furnished by the sinking of the giant lake steamer East . l. nd within a stones throw of the start . ing point and which resulted in the drowning of nearly a thousand passen- gers. While the active causes of this great disaster have not been conclu- sively determined as yet, it is clear that expert opinion and at least one official investigation board is convinced that part of the responsibility rests npon the steamboat inspection ser
 Vice. The coconers jury empaneled to fix the responsibility for the death of those many hundred people, without hesitation, fixed upon the steamboat inspectors as at least partially respon- sible, and as result of the findings of that body two of the inspectors for the
 lakes distinct were placed under arrest
 While it is little to be doubted that they will ultimately be cleared, as Is usually the case, through the full weight of the department which they serve being exerted in their behalf in
 order to conceal as far as possible the
 departmental short comings. the fact
 that the inspectors were among the
 first arrested. following a careful in Nestigation, is ample evidence that the | inquisitorial body had uncovered suf- | hcient evidence to support the belief
The Nome daily nugget., 1915-08-06

that they were at least guilty of con- tributory negligence. However. one does not need to fix upon the Eastland for examples of the inadequacy and general inefficiency of the system, for the history of marine fatalities of the past decade or two is repletc with evil dences that the system is little more than what Gompers has declared it to b. scarcely more than palliative and by no means effective in safeguarding the lives of the trave,ing public. An- other most significant point in the g1 eat labor leaders denunciation is that relating to the vital dependence placed by the department on individual estimates. While it is the duty of mar inc inspectors. if we rightly remember. to conduct their investigations in couples and through comparison of their findings arrive at definite con- clusions. 1t is fully realized by those who have observed the methods of in- spection. that the ruling is observed more often in the breach than in the performance. Anyone who has wit messed an inspection of a large vessel cannot but arrive at the conclusion that a large portion is of a purely pre- functory nature. unless they doubt the evidence of their own eyes II seems to be one of the main faults of the system that too much Is taken ts granted after a uifiins examination thereby allowing all manner of vital defects to be overlooked.

 Secretary Redfield of the Department of Commerce has announced his oppo- sition to the idea of the Alaska legis- lature controlling the fisheries in AL aska waters. He declares that the gov ernment Is better able to take care of the industry and his statement is taken to mean that the federal administra- tion will from this time forward insist on directly looking after the fishing in- terests. No definite statement has been made as to the opinion of the secretary on the taxing of the fisheries people. It is thought likely that the owners of canneries have entered protest against the taxation imposed on the industry by the legislature in the ses- sion just ended.
