AN EMPLOYMENT OFFICE OPENS
 FOR ALASKA
B. L. Thane to Try and Get Men for Juneau; Tells About the Steel
 Plant.

A recent issue of the Post In telligencer says:
 1 To complete final arrangements for the establishment of steel plant on Puget Sound, Bart L.. Thane, at the head of the Alaska Gastineau Mining Company, of Ju- neau, who is handling the engineer ing features connected with the pro 1 posed steel plant, arrived in Seattle ] from San Srancisco on the way to New York
 Plans for the new plant are ma terialzing satisfactorily" he said, "and an announcement of the de- tails will probably be made on my return from New York"
 MT. Thane said that he and his associates are not ready to make the site of the proposed new indus try known at this time.
 Assemblies Data. The Alaska mining operator has spent a number of weeks in Seattle since the first of the year working on the proposition and superintend- ing the extensive surveys and as sembling of technical data neces- sary. Practically all of this work has been completed and for several weeks he has been on business in San Srancisco.
 In connection with the undertak- ing a thorough survey was made Of the coal deposits of King county and Western Washington for MT Thane and associates by Prof. Bail eyi Willis, at the head of the depart ment of geology of Stanford univer- sity Prof. Willis has national prominence as a geologist and Is the author of a number of text books and higher scientific works on the subject.
 Present Coal Resources.
 Prof Willis left for New York yesterday morning on business for the company, and while in the East is complying with a request to pre- sent data to the United States fuel administration regarding the coal resources of Western Washington and methods of expediting the min ing and development of the prop critics.
 While in Seattle MT. Thane will make arrangements for the opening of an office here for the employ ment of men for his mining prop erty in Alaska. "In 1898 there was a stampede from Seattle to Alaska and now the stampede is the other way" he said. Exaggerated re- ports of exceptional wages In the States are inducing many men 10 leave the North, with the result that industries in Alaska necessary for the conduct of the war are sur fering. Workmen hear Of record wages made by exceptionally skillful shipyard workers and believe that such pay is the rule instead of the exception"

WARNING ISSUED ECONOMIC AFFAIRS
 IN JAPAN NATION

TOKYO. May 23.-Warning that adverse economic conditions may de- yelop in Japan as result of the war was given by the Japanese Premier Count Trauchi, in an address deliv- cred recently before the annual meet ing of the clearing house banks. Ike sponsibility of averting disaster he said. rested upon the bankers or Japan.
 The premier remarked that the necessity of industrial independence had been vividly brought home to Japan in consequence of the war and it was because of this that the Government had introduced into the last session of the Diet projects tending towards the achievement of this independence.
 MT. Shoda, Finance Minister. who followed Count Terauchi. said that the Government is compiling the es inmates for the current fiscal year maid the utmost attention to the per lection of the National defense. A project was mapped out for the build ing of two battle cruisers, three cruisers. and seventy-five other war sbips of all sorts at total cost equivalent to $15O, 900 and the dis bursement of which was to be ad yanced over period of six years This. together with the expenditure of s141, 100000 which had already fixed, would bring the total Naval expenditure to be defrayed during the next six years to about $2s2, OOO.O00.

Cabinet Officer Asks Peo- pie to Put Forth Spe- CiaI Efforts This
 Year for War.
SULZER SENDS WORD
Delegate Calls Attention to Another Duty Before AlaskanS al Present
 Time.

l Secretary of Labor William B
 Wilson, through Delegate Charles A
 Sulzer, has sent an appeal to the
 people of Alaska to put forth spe-
 cial efforts to increase the food supply of the United States during the present year.
 | The following letter, dated at
 Washington, May 18th, from Dele gate Sulzer:
 'I have been asked by the De- l partment of Labor to write letter to all Alaskans, urging the people of the Territory to put forth extra efforts, during the summer of 1918, in increasing the production of 1 foodstuff, that they may, thereby assist the Government in winning the war. And, in compliance with the request, I wish to ask that you give as much publicity as possible this appeal, as it is of the utmost importance.
 No State or land under the Stars and Stripes has come forth more loyalty than Alaska in the matter of subscribing to the Liberty Loans in furnishing volunteers for the Army, and in assisting the Red Cross,a and other war working or ganizations. Although far away, Alaska is not so remote that the administrative heads do not know of the splendid work that has been done in the North since the com mencement of the war. They know of all the work that has been done and it has been very gratifying to me, as representative of the peo- pie of Alaska, to be able to bring to the attention of the administra- tive heads the statistics which show how conclusively Alaskans are backing the President in the prose- cution of the war, in the determin- ation to make the world safe for democracy.
 "In the past, and especially in 1917, Alaska's showing in the pro ducton of food, by it's fisheries and farms, was remarkable. Yet, the Government asks for more. There fore. let me appeal, with emphasis, to all the people of Alaska to pro duce as much foodstuff as possible during the season of 1918, and to consume only homegrown products where possible, that we may be able to save the bread and other neces- sities of life for our soldiers, the soldiers of our Allies and for the poor women and children of Bel gium and France who have suffer- ed so terribly since that awful day in 1914 when, by the act of a mad monarch, the world was converted into a human slaughter-house.
 And let me urge the newspapers of Alaska to keep this matter re- freshed in the minds of the peo- ple: for three things will win the war.-men, money and food. All aska has given liberally of the first two and, with little effort, the people of the North will be able to give more generously of the third than they have heretofore; thereby showing the world a record for loyalty that will be the pride of all future generations of Alaskans.

GREAT PAINTING FADES

MILAN, Nov. 21 Correspondence of the Associated Press) IA heating ap- paratus powerful enough to force heat through a pile of sand bags F feet thick and to dy without scorching the wall behind, is needed to preserve one of the worlds masterpieces, rThe Last Supper" of Leonardo de Vinci, which is painted on the wall of the church of Santa Maria delle Grazie here. The dampness which accumu- lates in the sand necessary as a pro tectcion from air raids is fast fading the colors Of the picture, already damaged by time
 The restoration necessary for Leon ardo's picture is unsuited to the fires coes of Luini and other masters paint ed on the same wall How to give each set of masterpieces the treat ment required and still guard against the danger in the air is the problem. So far the experts of the Italian Min istry of Fine Arts have been unable to find a solution.
