TO
Be BUILT AND
TRACK RAISED

Following his return last night from
a conference with Chairman Edes of
the Alaskan Engineering Commission,
r. J. Weir, engineer in charge of this
district, announced that looking to-
ward the continuation of traffic
through the coming winter over the
government railroad rs. far as COM
pleted, snow sheds would be built at
Mile 531-2 and trestles and track
raising operations completed on the
Spencer flats.
Chairman Edes stated when seen
last Saturday that it might be neces-
sary to repair the curved trestle at
Mile 40 for traffic pending reconstruc-
ton of the old line between Mile 40
and Mile 81.
One of the problems facing the
commission is the lack of experienced
railroad workmen and the scarcity of
labor outside makes the situation diff
ficult here. There are many idle men
in the various towns along the line
of the government railroad, but the
majority are of the type who will not
work steady, but work a few days or
weeks and then lay off till their
money is gone.
There is room for over 100 men on
this division now at the highest wages
ever paid for railroad labor.

fact that he passed the examination
