TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN.

ROE POINT, Aug. 20.-To the Editor.-As I have been working in canneries for the past six years in many different capacities and my first opportunity to visit Southeast ern Alaska canneries, I find that there is about 25 or 30 per cent. of the employees are failing to do their duty, claiming that every thing they do the Superintendent or someone else gets credit for it. Naturally the Superintendent gets credit but not for the work the employees do but for employing the best men.
 When your time expires you are entitled to a recommendation and will need one in applying for a po- sition at another cannery and the work you do at the place you are employed this season will be in- strumental in getting you a better position next season, that is if you do your work as you should do it.
 By doing you work well you are helping the Government and help ing to feed the boys at the front, who are fighting for us and thus help to win the war.
