RIGGS FORMS
 ENGINEERUN
 FOR WAR USE

! NENANA.-At a largely attended
 meeting held in the drafting room of the general office building of the Al
 askan engineering commission here on Wednesday evening, preliminary steps were taken toward forming Gn army engineer company for service in the states or elsewhere in the event of war.
 The meeting was called to order by Thos. Riggs, jr. member of the AL askan engineering commission, who explained briefly the manner of or ganization and the status of such a company in the army. He said that Nenana was the first town in the ter ritory to anticipate a call for volnn- teerS, and that he hoped to see Alaska first among the units to be accepted, for he felt that northerners would prove invaluable to the army. He eX- plained further that it would be i'm possible to do more than organize at this time, since it would require con siderable time to train and otherwise prepare for service.
 Riggs said that he stood ready to give up his position to enter the ser vice of his country as a member of the proposed company, and numerous others of those present expressed themselves in like manner, spirit of intense patriotism prevailing through out the meeting.
 When the list was presented for signature eighty-seven put their names down, and several have signed the roster since, bringing the total up to 9l. The list will be kept open un- til the full quota of 160 names have been secured.
 Immediately following the meet ing Riggs wired Secretary of War Baker offering the services of the new but no reply has as yet been received.-(Nenana News)
