FROM COAST
 SAY SEWARD IS QUIET

Recent arrivals from the coast bring the report that Seward is very quiet this summer in conse- quence of the recent closing of Alaskan Engineering commission branch offices and the diversion of freight shipments direct to Anchor age. lt is also claimed that pass engers arriving at Seward, enroute to Anchorage, are hustled on to trains immediately upon their ar rival, affording little or nc time to see the Gateway City or to leave any money there.
 Residents of Seward. however, look forward to a busy winter in consequence of the awarding of the mail contract to the Alaskan En- gineering commission. The Anchor age harhor will be icebound soon, and then all boats will be compelled to discharge cargo at Seward and land their passengers there.

be prepared to pay prices that will include reasonable profits. The meaning of the message is not ex- actly clear, but we suspect the gov ernor means to warn us that prices are not going down immediately.
 There never has been any objec- tion on the part of consumers to reasonable profits, and we do not believe there ever will be, provided the profits go into the pockets of those who produce the food. It is the non-producing middleman who is doing the gouging, through a sys- tenn of price manipulation, who holds the producer down and holds the consumer up. Reasonable pro- fits, applied to a succession of inter- mediate transactions, are not reason able in the aggregate, and some means should be found to eliminate them. The sooner consumers can deal directly with producers, the sooner profits will become truly req sonable, and production normal. In the meantime, we are warned to be prepared for further gouging.

A YEAR OF STRIKES.
Approximately 3,5O0,00o worker:

Approximately 3,50O,000 workers were affected by labor controver- sies, strikes and lockouts in the United States during the Govern ments fiscal year which ended June 30, it is estimated unofficially on the basis of reports now being pre- pared for Director Hugh Kerwin, of the cancellation bureau, Department of Labor.
 The reports when completed will show that the bureau was asked to mediate in total of 800 cases in- volving approximately 1.055,200 workers. Kerwin believes. or about half of the number involved during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1919.
 This bureau has a record of only about one-third of all the strikes which occur" said Kerwin. Under the law we cannot act unless invited On this basis the total number of workers involved during the 1919 fiscal year was 7,044,120, of which the cancellation bureau handled l.7s0 cases. The estimate for the fiscal year just ended. therefore, would show 50 percent reduction over the previous one. It is. of course, impossible to know exactly until we have completed our tabulations,' said Kerwid. lH
 The unofficial estimate for 1920 indicates that workers lost roughly 5,000,0OO in wages, assuming an average wage of S5 and a total of ten days lost for each Strikes which do not continue at least ten days are rare, government reports show.
 The loss to employers would be about s700, 100000 in value of pro duction curtailed if wages represent one-quarter of the value of the product.
 The steel strike alone is estimated to have cost the workers approxi- mately s3,oOO,O00 a day in lost wages. Wage losses of the outlaw railroad strikers are believed to total nearly as much as those of the steel strikers.
 The conciliation bureau now has p mediators at work in all parts of the country.
 Strikes are not breaking out as fast as year ago." said Kerwin. But they're much harder to settle now than formerly. It seems as though workers now wait to make sure they have what they consider perfect grievance before begin ming strike. But once out, they seem determined to stay out until they win
