CLUB LETTER URGES
 VITAL ALASKA AIDS
(Centinued from Page OHs)

He went into the wage question at some length and declared that the
 payment of wages by the commis- lsion below the going wage of the country tends rather to discourage than to encourage development. He called attention to the fact that the decline in mining, due to the
 low purchasing power of gold, had forced many men to turn to the Government project for temporary relief, but he said the steady stream iof mushers, headed for the coast, indicated inability of the Alaskan Engineering commission to check the exodus with its present wage scale.
 Herman Anderson spoke of the ha andicap under which married men work in the employ of the com mission, and he called attention to one case, which had just come to his attention, the amount remaining iof married mans paycheck at the end of the month being scarcely
 worth mentioning. He expressed the belief that the employment of married men should be encouraged and that their pay should be suffi- cient to enable them to lay aside ia little money each month.
 Ben Simson said that he had been informed that numerous employees ] of the commission in this division
 receive less than is paid for similar work on the coast. He also spoke of the struggle that married em- iplcyes have to make both ends
 meet. .:". :.:
 1 R. G. Southworth, of The News,
 called attention to the fact that
 single employees receive benefits in
 the way of ridiculously low rental
 for quarters, and board that costs
 ccnsideraby more than the men are
 charged for it, that are not a
 source of help to married employees
 He also explained why the wage question had been taken up by the
 c.ub-that on a previous occasion
 the employees of the commission had
 requested an advance in wages and
 had been informed by MT. Riggs,
 vino was then a member of the
 commission, that he had no authori-
 ty to alter the wage scale; and the
 threat was made that persistence in
 ta.' demand for a raise would re-
 suit of a general suspension of work
 in the Interior. The attitude of
 the commission at that time, it was Suggested, probably accounted for
 the fact that workers now preferred
 to quit the country rather than
 risk the displeasure of their em- Iployers by seeking an increase in pay. The club had taken up the question, he said, both in a spirit
