MAN POWER IF ALASKA |S TO
 BE SOL VI. )

Ralph E. Robertson, working for the federal public service bureau, has been busy with a heavy correspond ence with view of learning the exact labor situation in Alaska, and whether there is need of establishment of federal employment offices in certain districts in Alaska.
 The task is not so easy as it might seem at first glance, as Mr Robert son is beginning to find out, owing to wide range of opinion concerning la bor. It is said that there are many idle men at Anchorage, while some deny this, stating that whatever sur plus there may be will be absorbed as soon as the summer railway &C., tivities and other industries start up.
 The government is trying to get ac- curate figures on the man-power and labor supply and demand throughout the nation, with view of securing the distribution of labor and skilled workers where they are most needed and where they will best serve indus trial interests.
 '"Even with the ending of the war" said a local resident in discussing the matter, i've shall never go back to the old plan of allowing a great congestion of labor in any particular district. The government plan of se curing definite information and of distribution of labor where it is most needed, through federal employment offices, will be continued. The days of the private employment offices are thing of the past. The war needs have brought about practical social ism, the cooperation between the gov ernment, the business men and the labor unions, and other great eco homie reforms which will be contin- ued and improved at the end of the war. The clock of progress can never be turned backward again"

repair the damage done by liquor"
points out Haven Emerson, health
commissioner, New York city. "Is 1t
the federal government that maintains
the alcoholic wards of hospitals, sup
ports the inebriate farms, pays the
costs Of the police, the courts, the pris-
ons and asylums or poor farms?
Come with me to the hospitals and
the clinics, visit the homes of the poor,
and see where the public must spend
Its money to rescue the remnants that
liquor has left. Can you not see that
1t Is worth greater sacrifice than
S5OO,OOO,OO0 year to liberate a coun-
try from the bondage of the alcohol
habit? There Is no need to drag ethics
into the matter. 1t Is matter Of
lives, brains, health, bread and dollars
and our promises due to our allies.
Nothing so practical, nothing so patri-
otto, nothing SO logical can be done by
this country now as to face the issue in
a manly way. AS Lloyd-George said.
