JAPANESE STEAMER
 LOADING RA|LROAD's
 SAL vAACED MATERIAL

The Alaska Railroad cOffers are enriched today by the neat sum of $43,000, reports Colonel Otto F. Ohlson, general manager of the system, who arrived in Seward last evening from his Anchorage head quarters accompanied by Mrs. Ohl- son. This sudden increase ill wealth is due to the disposal of 4,500 long tons of salvage material the major ity of which dates back to the lni tial days of the roads construction.
 Colonel Ohlson's trip to Seward at this time is for the purpose of personally attending to the duties connected with transferring che material from the railroad to the big Japanese steamer Taiyu Maru which arrived in port this morning from the south.
 Loading will be accomplished by the railroad magnet and cranes as we'll as the steamers equipment. It will be recalled this magnet load ing crane was one of the first pieces of equipment General Man ager Ohlson purchased upon as- suming charge of the system.
 The idea now, the Colonel stated, now that the Anchorage yards are cleaned up and in tidy condition, is to build a retaining plant where all salvaged material will pass thru and, after sorting, either repaired and returned to stock or gathered for disposal The sum received is entirely net above the cost of transporting and loading.
