 The engineer, who jumped just before the locomotive crashed the wall, said the throttle apparently stuck and the engine, a narrow gauge "dinky." jumped the track and plunged into the nearby office building, where Martin was seated.

 CHARGE OF
 LOCKOUT
Declare Alaskan Workers Being Fired" from
 Jobs-No Cause

Maritime Federation of the Pa cific conventioners, meeting yester- day afternoon in Miners Hall, ex- pressed vigorous and unanimous opposition to what they charged was gross discrimination" against CIO unionists and Alaskan resi- dents on the Kodiak and Sitka naval base projects.
 Alaska Delegate Anthony J. Di- mond's gradual elimination of fish traps bill was voted Maritime sup port with certain amendments.
 Discussion of the alleged discrim- ination against the CIO union and Alaska residents on Navy projects brought to light hitherto unpub- licized strike at Kodiak wharves last fall.
 Union men said, in attributing to this case the origin of the Mari times fight to gain flair treat ment" on the projects, that "AFL longshoremen organized at Kodiak last fall and broke the ILWU picket line at the docks and CIO workers haven't had any work there since the eighth of October. :"
 Bringing of the Navy base ques- ton to the floor brought with It a storm of discussion condemning contractors of the projects.
 Labor Breakup Charge
 It was said "a contractors spokes- man announced himself for the AFL alone-spoke for the Navy without authority-at Sitka, over 200 Alaskans have been fired with out adequate cause, due to AFL agreements-this is employer-ln- spired by canned salmon industry to break up organized labor in AL aska for this coming season"
 In passage of resolution con- demning the contractors on the Navy projects, Federationers took stand against hiring halls only at Seattle, Sitka and Kodiak and asked that hiring be done through all Government employment of- fices without discrimination, that medical examinations be given at port of hiring instead of at job alone, to obyiate needless trip and expense in case of medical reasons for exclusion from work, and also that Alaskan workers be given same rights as to transportation pay

JOIN THE ARMY


years, the war department is en-
treating young men to join the army.
By billboards, radio, movies, every
conceivable publicity device, even
including paper matches, the depart
ment is spending S28 a head to get
recruits for the fighting forces.
And this will continue, regardless
of the new CONSUMPTION measure.
This recruiting is for the regular
army, to bring it up to a strength of
$4,000. Consumption, on the other
hand, aims to get roughly a million
men for one-year training period,
to form trained reserve.
The publicity drive is getting re-
suits. 1t yielded 23,444 in June, a
new record for peacetime. The July
figure surpassed the June figure, and
August, in turn, surpassed July.
The cost of S28 a head for enlist
ments is low compared with other
years. In 1880, the department paid
$50 for each recruit; in 1881, the
figure was S66. Today recruiting is
on mass production" basis, also
lot of the publicity is obtained
free of cost.
For instance, express trucks, rail-
roads and chain stores are carrying
posters free of charge, while $50
trade associations are making a
gratis display of preparedness slo-
CANS Radio stations are donating
free time for transcribed "join the
army" programs, and $4,000 bill
boards are pasted with recruiting
posters at half price.
Most novel device is the mobile
recruiting station, truck and trail
er specially designed to carry re-
cruiting sergeant and staff about the
countryside, park in the town
square, and sign up youngsters for
the army. Twenty-seven mobile
stations" are built or building, two
or three for each corps area.
Result is that voluntary enlist,
ments are proceeding at the rate OF
about 5000 a week, which should
mean that the regular army will fill
its quota OF 375, 900 men before snow
flies.
