administrator, yesterday cited figures
given by Gov. ALT M. Landon to deny
a. complaint that the works program
was creating a shortage Of skilled la
bor in the construction industry.
The contention was made by Edward
J. Harding, managing director OF
the Associated General Contractors OF
America, Inc, who asserted the
shortage was acute and artificial"
Referring to Landon's speech at
Chicago Friday night, Hopkins said
the w. P. A. was employing about g.;
100000 persons at time when the
total unemployment is estimated by
the G. o. P. candidate for President
at 1000, ,000."
Relatively few skilled workers
sought employment on the works pro-
gram" Hopkins said, for as a class
they were far better able to care for
themselves than the unskilled. The
1880 census showed 1919 per cent Of
industrial workers to be skilled. The
portion of skilled workers employed
by w. P. A. has been little more than
half as high, in relation to the total
number"

owner, and the cruel necessity t,
which he had been driven.
i On the trail the dog kept a eau
tious distance, but it drew close
under cover of the darkness when
they camped. Maitland cut off a
strip of frozen meat and threw it
out in the snow, at the rim of the
freight. The strip vanished in a
fash of wet fangs. So did several
more, without visible effect of its
aloofness, except that it no longer
snarled when it evaded Maitland IS
approach. He called it Rusty" be-
cause of its miscolored fur.
After a days log cutting at the
place they had chosen for a winter
camp, Speed left Maitland to trim
timbers for the cabin, while he took
the team up to Tagish and hauled
down the more necessary part of
their outfit.
They set up the cabin walls, and
whipsawed the softer spruce into
lumber for the floor and fittings,
laying aside the best wood to sea-
son for the boat.
In the midst of this work they
were interrupted by surprise visit
from a mounted patrolman.

corporal stiffly. 1t was their first

was a tall, raw-boned, fresh-colored
