RIGGS TRYING TO SECURE BOATS TO RELIEVE SHORTAGE
Governor in Communication with Shipping Board in
 Effort to Get Supplies.

Continuation of efforts to get sup plies to the ports to the Westward by whatever means possible. was an nounced this morning by Gov. Thomas Riggs, who for the past two days has been in communication with R. H. Semmes, head of the Operating Division of the Federal Shipping nard, general manager of the Alaska Steamship Company. That the Ship ping Board may take a hand in the emergency is believed possible from the fact that MT. Semmes asked Gov Riggs to make a survey of the conditions to the Westward, espe cially in Prince William Sound and report him the findings. This was done yesterday by Gov. Riggs.
 Re-route Freighters.
 MT. Stannard was also given a sum- mary of conditions by Gov. Riggs and in response the former wired: If the strike is not settled prior to return of our freighters Redondo and Latouche, will turn around either one or both at Juneau to carry sup. plies to the Westward"
 MT. Stannard also indicated that early changes for the better were anticipated in the strike situation.
 The Governor asked Mir Semmes IS to the probability of getting Ship ping Board vessels assigned to Alas ka service during the strike as a means of preventing grave conse. quences. He suggested that it is possible to order supplies from Van- couver to come to Juneau via the Ca nadian lines if they will send a freighter, and then have the Re dondo or the Latouche turn around from here, or. a certain amount of supplies can be furnished from Jul neau and Ketchikan. Unless the La touche and Redondo have supplies aboard for Prince William Sound an emergency exists which must be han. dled immediately. Is there any liklihood of Shipping Board steamers
