BRIGHT AND NEWSY LETTER FROM MSEAT'rL LECORRESPONDENT
 DEALING WITH ALASKA AFFAIRS

f aid in the settlement of the country and developing traffic for the railway by publishing literature or spending money in aiding settlers to locate on the land"
 The volume of commerce for Alaska is larger than that of any other sec tion of the world. Figures for 1919 show approximately $1,000 for each inhabitant. During 1919 24,373 peO- pie were added to the population while 23,902 left. In the two preceding years 13,000 more left than came in. The balance of trade for the year reached $31 ,OO0,O 1000. Total imports for the year amounted to $38,957,259 and total exports were $7O,695,O8 Gold and silver shipped to the states was $8,696,139.
 c. F. Caldwell, president of the Utica Mining company of Slocan, B. C., has been in Seattle on his way to Alaska. He will go to Hyder to formulate plans for the construction of a railroad twenty miles long from Hyder to Stewart, just over the Can adian line.
 Major c. E. Dole, head of the pur- chasing department of the Alaskan | Engineering commission, announces that 500 men will be sent to Alaska this month to work on the Alaska rail way construction. The first contin- gent will be sent on the steamship Victoria which will make a special voyage carrying large quantities of material and supplies for the terri torial railway.
 Active work is under way in fit ting out the fishing fleet for Alaskan waters. Most of the Southeastern Alaska canneries expect to decrease their pack from one-tkird to one-half from normal. Alaska salmon packed last year wa 4,s592,201 cases, the oIId11SSI SluC0 1Sl0.
 Thursday, April 8 was a busy day with the Alaska Steamship company, seeing four of the ompany's big steamships sail for the north. A large part of their cargos will be can- nery supplies for the opening of the Alaska fishing season. The Alameda will make all of the regular ports except Anchorage The Steamship Victoria is making a special trip and will go as far north as Unimak Pass with cannery hands and supplies. The freight steamer Latouche will make the same ports as the Victoria with freight only. The Redondo will call at Southeastern Alaska cannery points with men and supplies. On the Ala meda will be large crew for the San Juan Fishing & Packing com pGny's cannery near Latouche. Owing to the ice in Cooks inlet the sailings for Anchorage have been postponed until later in the mouth.

screen of bookkeeping and legal de-
vices.
Business is Profitable.
"Anthracite is an extremely profit
able business, but the profits are
taken in the transportation and sales
end of the business. The rates Of
Transporting anthracite are such that
the net income per ton carried is
considerably higher than that for any
other class of freight, while the an.
thracite roads, thanks to the financial
manipulation just described, are able
to justify these rates on the basis
OF apparent costs. The conclusion is
inevitable, therefore, that the anthra-
cite combination has chosen the
transportation department an tho
strategic point at which profits may
be most unobtrusively drawn off. The
chief profits have been distracted
through the railroads as a channel.
In other words, the division Of the
price of anthracite between WAGES,
other costs, and return to capital is
not what it appears to be ~ the re-
suit Of q mere study of the accounts
OF the producing corporations. In
determining this division profit must
DO considered in terms Of the entire
return to legitimate investment in Ill

MAKES b0TCH OF
LABOR QUESTION
Congress Passes Law and De-
paftment Of Justice Rules
Against Customs Employees.

WASHINGTON, July s.-The Ma
tienal Federation OF Federal En-
ployes asks the president to remedy
wage conditions of openers and pack
customs service. In their letter to
the chief executive the trade unions
lists show the bungling manner in
which congress handles the so-called
labor question"
Ten years ago congress ordered
that the pay of laborers employed In
the customs service should be $40
q year. Since then the term labor
err has become obsolete because of
it's general misapplication. Employees
doing skilled and semi-skilled work
are now classed as "laborers," with
congress oblivieus to changed condi-
tons.
The last congress voted 100000
Tor Increases to custom service en-
ployes but because the openers and
packers are classified as "laborers"
they must stay under the 1909 limit
OF $S4O g year, and will receive no
part of this increase.
The National Federation of Fe<
eral Employees urges the president to
issue an executive order transferring
these customs "laborers'' from the
statutory class of employees to some
appropriate classification on a lump
sum payroll. thereby bringing them
financial relief.

tionary employers, it is always bit
terly resented by the working men.

COSTS $4,000 TO TRAIN
CRIPPLED WAR VETERANS

One of the finest things about the
recently enacted legislation for the
rehabilitation Of persons disabled in
industry or otherwise. says the board,
is the fact that the process Of re-
IL regarded as a public
obligation. The training is free, just
as the public schools are free. There
is no clause which says that the ben
eficiary must give proof that he can
not afford to pay for the training.
Under the congressional act, the
federal board will educate disabled
veterans and pay them during the
educational process In the case OF
the injured in industry or othtrFtss
the various states will have jurisqic-
ton. The government will give to
the states one dollar for every dollar
3 appropriated for this purpose by fhe
states. The federal board will act in
supervisory capacity over the tate
boards that a uniform and practical
system of education may be devel-
oped.
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1920-07-10

This fact is exceedingly important.
For in it is concealed the basis upon
which the anthraeite combination
just6ies high prices and low wages.
1t is really the channel through which
the cost OF financial juggling and un-
wisdom is passed on to the consumer.
1t also serves to block requests for
adequate wages.
Where Profits Are.
"l7o This brings US to a very i'm
portant conclusion which should in
fluence the board in it's proceedings.
The profits Of the anthracite indus
try are to be found in the profits
of the anthracite railroads and in the
profits of the sales companies con-
trolled by their stockholders. TO
these must be added the millions of
dollars which 80 each year to those
who hold the tens of millions Of
bonded Indebtedness which have re-
suited from the financing Of the in
dustry.
The point which we wish to make
is that well-defined process exists
by which the profits of the anthracite
industry are successfully concealed,
high prices being explained by appar-
ent high costs. The losses of the rail-
road coal companies are written into
the cost Of transportation through
advances without interest," and
through the funding operations which
impose large fixed charges upon the
railroad depart1n ent. The high freight
rates which such inflated transporta-
ton costs seem to justify are written
into the cost Of anthracite and serve
to bridge the gap between the mine
cost and the high prices which pre-
vail.
How Stock Is Watered.
This financial policy has furnished
basis for heavily watering the
capitalization of the various parts Of
the industry.
1T has furnished large returns as
interest on bonded indebtedness.
But especially it serves to blind
the public which is vainly trying to
find the cause of high prices. AS we
have already explained the real profits
Of the anthracite industry are thus
piped Oft below the surface in terms
which the public does not associate
Will JuS VtOUl&zM Oh 4uIIldCltS. we
might here call attention to the fact
that while the margin shown by the
production companies for the year
1918 If reckoned on 90,00O,O00 tons
would show a profit to the coal COM
panies OF something over 100000,
the profits which the anthracite rail-
roads made out Of the transp Grafton
OF the commodity when added to the
charges attributable to funded debts,
ETC., and to the profits of the railroad
sales organizations would probably be
found to total nearly seven times that
amount. These are the profits which
are large enough to absorb the in
creases which the anthracite workers
are requesting.
"And it 10 just the fact that the
policy OF diverting the profits of an
thacite while it is in transit service
as q means to blocking the request
for wage increases that makes it Of
special service to the anthracite roads.
For 1t makes possible the claim that
the industry cannot pay wage ad-
vances. In other words the system
presses UP to, squeeze the consumer
and down to squeeze the wage Garner,
by dtverting profits at, a point where
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1920-07-10

every legislative body should take
steps to eliminate this basis for de-
cept1on. The anthracite system is knit
into 4 single great monopoly by inter-
stock ownership, by interlocking di-
rectorates, by informal conferences,
and especially by the engrossing con-
troll OF the great New York banking
combine headed by j. p. Morgan Il
Co. Four members Of the inner circle
through directorships companies ship
ping over Is per cent of the total
anthracite tonnage. This means a
close community Of financial interest.
1t means that declarations OF separ-
ateness are mere fictions. It means
that, by and large, all the profits and
interest charges flow into the same
great profit reservoirs which can and
should be drawn upon to afford the
workers in the industry a living
Wage."
