pWA Powerless to Give Resi- 'dential Preference to Applicant
 Workers

In order that Alaska residents would be assured of having more definite employment opportunit- ies, Delegate Dimond recently re quested Administrator Ickes of the PWA, to have provisions made for the first offers of work On public works projects to bona f1de residents of the Territory.
 The reply stated that under the Public Works Administra- tion Appropriation Act of 1888 Requirement. cannot be made in awarding of contracts that res idential preference be establish ed in employment of workers on projects. It was said, however, that they do encourage the em- ployent of local worknen as far as possible"
 While the Delegate has consist ently sought to help all resident workers of Alaska in obtaining employment in Federal under takings, his request in this parti cular instance was based on a pet ition signed by number of resi- dent working men of Anchorage who asked that a certified list of resident applicants for work be established and that employment on Government projects be made from the list.

Fishery Products Laboratory
 Asked of Congress by Dimond

A bill introduced in the House on June g by the Delegate would authorize an appropriation of S50,00O to enable the Bureau of Fisheries to establish fishery products laboratory in the Ter ritory.
 Under the provisions of the bill the Bureau of Fisheries is authorized to cooperate with the Fisheries Experimental Commis- sion of the Territory, as well as will municipalities, agencies, or ganiZations, or individuals, in working toward the purpose of the Act. It stipulates that $20, ,000 of the appropriation authorized shall be construed as the Federal participation for matching the like amount which was appro- priated by the Territorial Leg islature in 1937 for such use. This is particularly in line with the suggested plan that has been un- der consideration for some years to establish a fishery products laboratory at Ketchikan.

McDuffee, Quartz Miner Brngs Cleanup To Nome

Developing one of the best quartz possibilities in the Nome section is Ralph McDuffee, vet eran hard-rock miner, who came to town the other day with a sizable cleanup, from his claim located g miles up Snake River, at Silver Creek.
 Operating a fve-ton mill, he has opened up a two hundred foot tunnel off of a 40-foot shaft, and has obtained ore running from $1O0 to $250 per ton, with about 75 percent saving in the milling.
 His plans call for a continual ton of development work this season with the present mill, and the installation, possibly next year of a larger mill, which would handle the ore at a great CT profit and less expense. He also expects to lengthen the drift to about a thousand feet and lower the shaft to about 100 feet.
 Quartz is Macs" life, and if anything can be made of the pre- sent development, he is the one to do it. What Nome needs is greater development of quartz prospects, for steady employ ing of labor during the entire year.
