nd fabrication in the U. s.

and fabrication in the U. S. There are also several high cross ings which call for wooden viaducts. !, An effort is now being made to ship into Nenana during the present sea- son about a half million feet of bridge lumber, via the White Pass route, provided sufficiently attrac- tive freight rate can be secured {, from the steamship company If this material can be secured before the end of the summer, work will be started on the construction of several of these high bridges. Con- sideration will also be given to the shipment of the steel viaducts dur ing the early summer of 1921, via the river route, provided sufficient ly attractive freight rates can also be secured.
 Coal Mining.
 The A. E. c. is not operating any coal mines in the Nenana field, but depends entirely upon the output from the privately owned coal mines.
 Delivery of coal to Nenana from the new mine at the end of steel, Mile 358, operated by the Healy River Coal corporation, or from the Broad Pass, operated by Mir. R. w. Calderhead, can be made practically continuous as soon as the aerial tramway is in operation across the Nenana river
 As stated in the above para graphs, there will be through stan dard gauge rail communication be- tween Nenana and these coal prop critics during the months from Sep tember to May of each year, and the aerial tramway will provide transfer facilities during the sum- mer months.
 Wages of Married Employees.
 While the matter of wages of men in the employ of the A. E. C. is believed to be one which is prop erly not subject to discussion with i the Commercial club, arguments were heard, during yesterdays meet ing, more particularly in reference to the married employees residing in the town of Nenana. The Commis- ! sion has been studying the question i of wages and living costs for sev- eral months, and as the committee was advised, the proposal to remove the handicap which married em- ployes are now working under, due 1 to the operation of the Commission messhouse below cost, will receive favorable consideration. In other words, MT. Browne intends to raise the price of board in the messhouse operated by the Commission to figure which will approximately be equal to cost, adjusting the salaries and wages of employees accordingly |

al placing of the bridge order with the steel mills, consideration will be given to starting work on the bridge piers and approaches. l am of the opinion that this preliminary work should be done ahead of the arrival of steel from the coast end, and will so arrange, unless the es- inmates of cost seem to make such action prohibitive.
 Nenana River Bridge Construction.
 As is we'll known locally, the present crossing of the Nenana riv- CT, at Mile 37O, is made on a tenn porary trestle bridge, which remains in place about seven months of the year, going out at the spring break up each season. This leaves an in terrupted line between the coal mines, opposite Healy fork, and the town of Nenana during about five months of the year To insure con- tinuous communication between the end of steel at 358 and the town of Nenana, plans were made last December to provide an aerial tram way over the Nenana river at the bridge site (Mile 37O), which would transfer four-ton lifts back and forth across the opening This ap- pliance has been purchased, and now lies in Seattle awaiting prompt shipment to Nenana, upon the open ing of navigation. As soon as the tramway is in place over the Ne mana river, the Commission will be able to transfer coal and other sup plies, over the interrupted portion of the track, with small additional expense in cost of freight shipments Standard gauge equipment consist ing of an engine and fiatcars will be left on the south side of the Nenana crossing before the spring breakup, to permit of train move ment between Mile 35S and the river.
 The design of the Nenana river bridge will also be taken in hand by Mr. Fogelstrom and MT. Angler, as soon as they arrive upon the ground, and upon the approval of the accepted design for this cross ing, immediate steps will be talk en to place orders for the struc- ture.
 Steel and Wooden Viaduct Construc-
 ton, Nenana Canyon District.
 As explained during the meeting with the committee from the Com mercial club, it is believed that more benefit will result to the town of Nenana by the early construction of the steel viaducts in the Nenana district than from any other one thing.
 The railroad line is carried across Riley creek and several other similar openings on high steel viaducts re- luiring special design, construction,

Nenana, Alaska, April 13, 1920. Editor The Nenana News.
 My dear Sir: Agreeable to the request of the executive committee of the Nenana Commercial club, at a meeting held in Mir. Browne's of flee yesterday afternoon, to make public various matters discussed at this conference for the information of the residents of Nenara, l am taking occasion to address you this letter. with the thought that you would wish to give it space in the columns of your paper.
 The meeting was attended by Robert Joseph Diven, R. s. McDon- aid, Herman Anderson, William Coutts, and J. H. Scott, represent ing the Nenana Commercial club, and by Mr. Browne, engineer in charge of the Northern division ; MT. H. P. Warren, engineer in charge of the supply division, and the undersigned, representing the A. E. C. The following topics were taken up at the meeting:
 1. Panama river bridge construc- tion.
 ?. Nenana river bridge construc- tion.
 3. Steel and wooden viaduct con struction, Nenana Canyon district.
 4. Coal delivery to Nenana.
 5. Operation of commission com missary at Nenana.
 6. Wages of married employees re- siding in Nenana.
 2. Kantishna wagon road con- structiOn.
 8. Plans to secure reliable data setting forth the resources of trib- utary country for the compilation of an official bulletin to be issued by the Interior Department at Wash ington.
 All of the above subjects were discussed at some length during the conference, with the net result that the following information was given to the committee, with respect to each topic, which may be briefly summarized as follows:
 Panama River Bridge.
 Considering the poor foundation offered in the bed of the Panama river, and along the south bank, for the construction of bridge piers; the menace of ice to the channel piers during the spring breakup; the War Department requirements for bridge construction over a navigable river, as well as the large cost of this structure, involving as it does the

expenditure of million and a quar- ter dollars, it was desired to obtain the best expert advice before pro- ceeding with actual construction of
 the bridge. Accordingly, during my recent trip to Washington, the services of one of the foremost bridge engineering firms in the Unit ed States = Modjiski & Angler -
 were secured to act as consulting engineers to the 4. E. C. in the matter of the location, design and construction of the Panama river bridge.
 One of the members of the firm Mir. Angier-is now enroute to Nenana, and will arrive here next week to commence his studies and investigations and to view the spring breakup of the river ice. He will be accompanied by Mr. Fogel- strom, the engineer of bridges of the A. F.. C., and several other engineering assistants, to enable him to make a complete record of his 
 Naturally, it is not possible to state at the present time just what action can or will be taken with reference to the construction of the bridge, nor will this be possible un- til Mr. Anglers studies are com pleted. However, as soon as Mr. Anglers definite plans and recom- mendations are in the hands of the Commission, and the bridge plans have been approved by the War Department, I can assure you that no time will be lost in starting work on this important project.
 It should be understood that in the construction of bridge of this nature it would be impracticable to secure complete fabrication in suf- ficient time to warrant shipping the bridge material via the river route. In fact, know, from our recent experience in handling the large steel bridge which spans the Susit- ma river at Mile 264, that we will have to work fast in order to get the Tanana river bridge ordered and fabricated in time to ship in over the completed railroad line. The steel mills in the United States are running short-handed, and they have orders booked ahead about one year in advance. At the earliest calculation it would take over a year for the design and fabrication of bridge of this nature.
 Upon approval of the plans by the War Department, and the actu-
