Work of clearing is being carried forward by the transient workers. Com munity canning centers are planned this summer so that the housewives will be able to can the various ber- ries and vegetables for the winter. There is an abundance of raspber- ries and blueberries in the valley.
 Some of the farmers already in the valley have applied for ad- mittance to the colonization pro- gram and will be taken in as the program develops.
 Little Dissatisfaction
 There is but little dissatisfaction Miss Forrest reports, the few cases being confined to problems that can be worked out on the project. A few families may have to be re- turned to the States due to physical shortcomings for such a venture, one child already having been sent south for medical attention at an orthopedic hospital. Transient workers who walked off the job to Anchorage a short time ago have been sent outside by their organization because of failure to live up to regulations and discipline of the camp, she said.

 Karnes Describes
 Anthony Karnes, Territorial Com missioner of Education who return ed today from a two-weeks' trip to the Westward, told of conditions in the Matanuska Valley. where the nations newest colonization plan is under way.
 There may be talk of discontent from Palmer, but I didn't see much evidence of it while was there, ? Karnes said. "A few disgruntled persons can stir up lot of noise. As far as I could ascertain, the project is making progress and the colonists, as whole, seem happy. 7

AS an EZRA executive she rep resented the Alaska Rural Rehab- ilitation Corporation also on her mission.
 Colonists operate the mills and they are doing a fine job of it, she reports. They have the enthus- iasm and determination to win, she found, and everything points to their ultimate success.
 Pioneering Spirit
 These men and women have the pioneering spirit" Miss Forrest, who got to know most of the settlers personally. said They are de- termined to go ahead and take from the soil of the Matanuska a livelihood. They are all working hard and effectively. Under the guidance of some more familiar with Alaska conditions they are forging ahead and by winter all of them will be prepared

CHAIN TELEGRAM
 FAD RESULTS IN
 SUIT, LARGE SUM
Informer' Brings Case Against Company for
 Over $3,000,000

TRENTON, N. J., June 20.-The New Jersey chain telegram fad, seized upon by it's participants as sWitfer road to riches than the chain idea in it's humber letter form, has brought a $3,600, ,00C State Supreme Court suit to the doorstep of the Western Union Telegraph Company.
 William F. zwirner of Merchant vile is suing the telegraph company as a common informer" under a rarely invoked State gambling law zwirner seeks $2,000 for each of 1900 telegrams he alleges were sent from Camden during nine days of this month. He contends that on each of these telegrams transmit ting $2 the telegraph company re- ceived 5l cents toll and money transmission charges.
 The Court of Errors and Appeals recently upheld provisions of the statute under which Zwirner has brought suit. The law provides that the informer shall receive half the sum of the judgnsent-the other half going to the county.
 zwirner alleges that the Western Union Telegraph Company oper. ated lotteries in sending chain tele- grams. Another informer recently won a judgment of $4,000 agains a dog racing track.

CHARGES MADE BY COL0NISTS
 NOT RECEIVED
WestbrooR Says Only One Complaint Received
 Statement

WASHINGTON, June 20.-Law- renee Westbrook, Deputy Admins trator of EZRA, who is handling the Matanuska colonization project said he has received only one com- plaint from the colonists.
 One load of lumber has been delayed in arriving but we are mak- ing every effort to complete the settlement as soon as possible de- spite unavoidable delays in building cabins and other structures" said Westbrook.
 The colonists are much better off already than they were in the states where they came from con- cluded Westbrook.
 The above statement was caused by the Associated Press dispatch from Palmer, Alaska, in yesterdays Empire, which said Patrick Hem mer and Mrs. M Sandvik, colon ists, who said they represented 40 others, sent complaints regarding the Matanuska project conditions and asking for an investigation. The dispatch also said:
 Tt is asserted the cabins are not being built, wells are not being dug and no preparations are under way for a school. There is not sufficient medical aid and available roads are not being built into the tracts as promised. The prices at the com missary are higher than at the Palmer store"
 LITTLE SYMPATHY
 LANSING, Michigan, June 20.- Complaints from the Matanuska Valley colonists aroused little sym pathy at the Emergency Welfare headquarters.
 Roswell Carr, Director of Rural Rehabilitation, who directed the enrolment and transfer of the Michigan party of colonists, said the members went into the scheme with their eyes wide open"
 Carr said complaints are to be expected as the pioneers are enter ing new land and facing unavoid- able hardships He said they were told before they started they would be expected to buy their food and clothing with the Government loans but complaints about food prices are understandable
