NENANA WELCOMES CROWD
 OF SHRINERS FROM COAST

* Nenana smiled with Nile" yes terday, during the brief stay in town of the Shrine excursionists, enroute from the coast, headed by Potentate Caldwell, of Seattle, to hold cere- monial at Fairbanks. There was large delegation at the depot to welcome the incoming passengers, and local Shriners and the public generally did everything possible to make the stay of the visitors an en- joyable one.
 A special train, appropriately de- corated, took the excursionists to the bridge site, where they were shown over the works by Shriners Hansen and Jones, of the railroad building organization.
 The excursionists left for Fair banks on the regular train, their number having been materially in- creased by the Nenana delegation which journeyed to the upper town for the ceremonial and the pubic celebration and baseball series.
 The Shrine officials who came all the way from Seattle 10 put on the "big show" at Fairbanks tonight, include Potentate Hugh M. Cald well, former mayor of Seattle; Capt. John Rex Thompson, past potentate; Recorder Frank Lazier. There were a number of other Seattle Shriners in the party, some from various towns along the coast and more than one hundred from Anchor age. The visitors will return to Nenana on Tuesday and will be entertained during the afternoon with a ball game between the Nenana and An chorage teams. An effort is being made to hold the train over until midnight, in which event a dance will be arranged in honor of the occasion.
 A movement is on foot today to run a special train to Fairbanks tomorrow, in order that Nenanaites make take in the ball game and auto race. But up to the hour of going to press, it had not been definitely ascertained whether the required number of tickets could be disposed of. Abe McCord has the list at the Simson Leader" store, and all desiring to make the trip are requested to let Mir. Me Cord know as soon as possible. He has about thirty names on the list now.

MT. and Mrs. Herman Anderson returned to Nenana yesterday, af- ter an absence of several months in Seattle, where Mrs. Anderson was under the care of Dr. Horton for an injured knee. She returned to Nenana greatly improved, but it will be many months before she can hope for complete recovery.
 Asked regarding conditions in the Spirit City, Mr. Anderson said he had found building boom in pro- gress when he arrived there and the city very prosperous. There are idle men there of course, he admit ted, but there is work for every me chanic who wants to work, and the wages are good The work being done now, he explained, is the re- suit of long inactivity during the after-war depression. The work was put off from year to year, but now everyone apparently, is anxious to repair and build, with the result that there are not skilled workers enough to do it.
 MT. Anderson bought ranch on the Raging river while he was out and will transform it into a resort for auto travellers. The place, 12O acres in extent, is about 36 miles from Seattle, and close to the Sun set highway. The place is ideal for camping.
 Miss Valentine Anderson, daught- CT of MT and Mrs. Anderson, is living with her sister in Seattle and will attend the university this winter.

Will Support Railroads

The President told Congress and the nation that he had resolved to use all the power of the Govern ment to maintain transportation and sustain the right of men to work.
 Speaking of the rail strike, the President declared that trains had been deserted on the Western des- erts in a manner that revealed cruelty and contempt for law on the part of some of the railroad employees, who have conspired to paralyze transportation"
 Declaring that the striking unions in some cases, had not held their men to strike law observance, the President asserted that there is a state of lawlessness shocking to every American conception of law and order"
 The President announced it as his intention to invoke the civil and criminal laws forbidding conspir- acies which hinder interstate com merce. -.":. :.. ".:.
 In conclusion, the President said, Ut is fair to say the great mass of organized workmen do not approve but seem helpless to hinder these conditions that obtain in free Ameri- ca"
