FEDERAL LABOR BOARD
TO CONTINUE ITS WORK
Two Women to he Added to Member
ship Of tho Local
Body.

The state advisory board of the
United States employment service met
in the office of federal state director,
James y. Potts recently and selected
the territory in which the fifty-two
federal community labor boards
throughout the state have jurisdic-
ton.
The state advisory board has given
the federal community labor board
of Richmond. control over the follow
ing counties: Hen"ico, Chesterfield.
Goochland Hanover. New Kent and
Charles City, in addition to the city
of Richmo nd. The work of the Rich
mond federal community labor board
will be in conjunction with the branch
office OF the United States Employ
ment service located at 90 East
Main street
Following the selection Of the ter
ritory over which Richmond's federal
community labor board will have
nounced that the board will immedi-
ateiy commence its work.
The Richmond federal community
labor board Is composed of Herbert
o. Funston. selected by the govern
ment as chairman and representative
Of the interests of the government;
Howard r. Colvin and r. Peyton Giles,
chosen respectively by labor and
management to represent the interests
of the community.
Following instructions recently re-
ceved from Director General Dens-
more. Of the United States Employ
ment service. two women members
will be added to Richmond's federal
community labor toard at once, one
OF them viii he chosen 10 represent
management and the other employees.
This important development in the
policy of the environment service IS
a preliminary to the large introduc-
tion OF women in industry necessitated
by the demands OF the war.
With the certainty that women
must play an equal part with men in
putting through the vast program OF
war production has come the logical
development of giving women an
equal share In the Jurisdiction OF war
labor supply.
Under regulations prescribed by the
war labor policies bonr9. each federal
community labor board will have gem
eral Jurisdiction over the recruiting
and distribution OF labor in it's dis
trlct, subject 10 revue" by the stdAe

Government Reserves Coal
Fields in Alaska to Have

Through the work of the genera.
land office and the bureau of mines,
government reservations have been
designated in certain coal fields in
Alaska. These reservations are in
tended to cover such ground as will
provide coal for government use. pro-
tect the public from individuals at
tempting to monopolize coal lands or
eXtcrt exorbitant prices for coal. and
still offer equally good areas in the
best-known parts of the fields for ex-

paratiyely small blocks, which can be
worked individually or combined into

The future of the Alaska coal fields.
1t is asserted, is still somewhat prob

output viii come in direct competition
with California oil, the coal fields of
Oregon, Washington and British Co
iuInbia, and with hydroeleetric power
Both the Boring river and the Manta-
nuska fields contain high-grade btu

use in the navy, and the Nenana field
contains an excellent Ignite, suitable
Tor power or domestic uses, or as a
powdered fuel in furnaces.
Experiments have proved that Goals
from other states ON the coast have not
proved satisfactory for use by the
