LONGSHOREMEN'S UNION AND IIGH TRACE C',
 HAVE DISAGREEMENT

In an Interview for the Nugget by President Ben Nygren and Sec retary Rasmussen of the Federal Labor Union as to the disagree ment existing between the union and the Nome Lighterage Com pany in the unloading of the freight from the freighter Oduna, the above mentioned officials stat ed in substance:
 "The trouble arose Sunday ev- ening when lighters loaded with piling and timbers were lowed into Snake river for use in construction by the Alaska Road Commission for the revetments along the banks of Snake river. when the four barge men were taken of and other men used to unload the lighters in connection with teams. :"
 The officials state that it has been a standing rule for over twenty years that the four lighter men are engaged on lighters from the time they go to work until the cargo has been discharged. a foundation for itself, and in a without any notice or arrangement With the union. and it is this old established rule and principle that the union men are holding out for. the matter of wages not being an issue.
 On Sunday evening the union ! hAid meeting to discuss the mat ter pro and con and it was de cided to stand pat on the enforce met of the old law of four men being employed in discharging the lighters, and decided to maintain a lockout.
 In the meantime the lighterage : company was informed of the ac- i ton Of the union but refused to acceed to keeping four men on the lighters during the unloading and as a consequence the union still maintains their lockout"
 The Lighterage Company, when asked by the Nugget if they wished to make a statement for publication. declined. stating that they did not think it necessary as they were lightering the freight from the vessel without any hitch by the use of native help and others.

It is planned that each lodge take care of the head. stones or headboards in their par ticular plots and any other work they care 10 take upon themselves but the general work and procure ment of material would be done comparatively.

LAND SPECTATORS
USING BAD CHECKS
Flood of Worthless Paper
Dampens Enthusiasm of
RockaWay Traders.
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK. August 5.-A flood of
worthless checks returned by Rock
away banks yesterday dampened the
enthusiasm of the thousands of specu-
lators trying to become rich over
night through the land boom, which
started two weeks ago, when an ordi-
nance assuring Rockaway a 81, 500, 900
municipal boardwalk was passed.
Bankers estimated that from 500
TO 1000 bad checks were being re-
ceived daily, and banks are employing
extra clerks to trace this paper. Real
estate operators fear many contracts
will be voided because they were
originally f1oated on worthless checks.
There is also considerable skepticism
as to whether there is enough capital
to take care of contracts running into
millions of dollars.
In the early days of the boom, un-
certified checks We're accepted as first
payments on lots as prices climbed

peared on corners and whole COM
munities plunged into frenzied finance.
"kiting" Is Common.
Many of the earliest plungers de-
lfberately gave checks for which they
had no funds in the hope that they
could quickly resell and cover them.
The trend of prices is said to be to-
ward higher levels, but spectators
are demanding certified checks or cash
as first payments, and many who

started with a "shoestring" found
their paper profits turned into losses.
Unless the boom collapses, 1t is
probable that 10000 persons living in
bungalows on the ocean front, will
soon have to seek other homes. Real
estate men say that vast seaside re-
sort will follow the emile boardwalk,
and that the "bungaleers" will go.
Meanwhile, hundreds of them are try
ing to ride to fortune on the specu-
lative wave, and have dropped Sum
mer sports for amateur craftsmanship.
While huge paper profits are com
mon, few spectators are assured that
they will really collect the prices they
have contracted to receive for land
and the real estate agents who are
collecting commissions are among the
few to whom profits are assured.
