Michigan in
Washington
BY Esther Wagner Tufty


Three signs OF a general stiffen'
ing in the Administrators attitude
against labor strikes in national de-
Tense industries are most apparent
in Washington.
First, the Presidents speech with
its advertisement to labor TO avoid
strikes. 1t was not lost on the
President-or the radio listener
that the greatest applause was CIV
en- his plain words to labor.
Second, the appointment OF a
Mediation Board to do nothing else
but settle disputes between labor
and management.
Third. National Production Chief
Knudsen's admission that his
optimistic prediction OF no major
labor trouble was premature.
Also his sanction of "coollng-of'
period, established by legislation
or agreement, while the national de-
tense work goes on, uninterrupted.
When Knudsen was asked at his
last press conference what he con
sidered the predominant cause Of
the strikes. he answered. First,
organization efforts; second, juris-
dictional disputes; and third, and
less frequent. wages and working
conditions
Big "Bnl' Knudsen has a ma.
tional defense map that is his pride
and JOY. A bright headed pin
marks every project and more are
added every day. Boyishly he said
They told us to move westward
and this shows We are doing it,
pointing TO a cluster OF pins in the
Michigan area.
Only a widespread will do the
Job, he is convinced. The big COM
panies got the first contracts be-
cause they were ready. to start, not
because We were playing fayorites,
he said. Each OF these have many
eub-contracts and they'll have more
as the demand increases for ma.
tional defense materials IL is pre-
diCted. An inver,0rv OF all existing
plant facilities, now in progress vii
result he hopes in the desired wide
spread.

Knudsen jokes and observations

5ATk0 HAS STORY IN ALASKA SPORTSMAN REGARDING FUTURE

A new three-room house will be ready for occupancy by Capt. Paul Satko and his family this coming spring. and another problem will then confront the Modern Noah what to do with the "Ark?'
 In the new issue of The Alaska Sportsman magazine, the April num- Der, Satko has written the story ot his adventures and problems since arriving safely in Juneau last June from his 4,O00 mile boat trip by land and sea from Virginia, and his present outlook for the future.
 Chiefly. the attentions of the Vir- ginia welder and his family have been confined to becoming settled. This problem they solved by select ing a homestead in the Eagle River Valley, north of Juneau, clearing land, and beginning construction of permanent home. The building Wi! be log structure, 20 feet by 90 feet | in size.
 The family will move ashore as soon as the house is finished, Sat ko says, and their long stay aboard their home made boat will be ended permanently But what to do with the Ark, Satko does not know. Next on his program, he says, is to culti- vate his land and raise produce foi himself and his family alld fol housewives in Juneau.
 Easily The Alaska Sportsman nest colorful issue to date, the April ssue also contains story of fish ing for cannibalistic cutthroat trout deer hunting story, an article about wolf trapping by Govern ment trapper, and another in tine ;eries of articles entitled "The Arc tic Trail" by Peter Dow.
 Particularly striking is the cover oi the April issue, full-color scene of Mendenhall Glacier with ice-skat. CTS on the lake in the foreground The photo is by Maxcine William: of Juneau.

WARREN EVELAND
 VISITS ANCHORAGE
 ON INSPECTION TRIP

Returning on the Alaska from Anchorage where he made a rou- tine inspection of the Territorial Health Department Laboratory, Warren Eveland, Laboratory Direc- tor, reported the Anchorage depart ment swamped with work brought about by the tremendous activity of the boom city.
 Nearly everyone is well aware of the crowded conditions but the actual scene is inconceivable until one has witnessed it." he said. Peo- pie are living in garages, sheds just anywhere to get a roof over their heads. Numerous small shacks have been built along the high way and, although nearly all are incomplete, people are living in them.
 With all the workmen on the base, 6,000 soldiers and more ar- irving all the time, the city is over- flowing, he stated.
 A full company of military DO. lice is housed in the old post office building. They patrol the streets 1T cooperation with the city police taking responsibility for the mili- tary population.
 Eveland reported Sanitariar Lloyd Merely recovered from se- we're attack of measles and is bus, at work. MT. and Mrs. Morley were fortunate in obtaining an apart. ment in new building which stil is partially incompleted. Mrs. Nor ley is working in the bank.
 MT. and Mrs. Fred Axford have built small cottage in which they are living in although they stil have much work to do on it. AK. ford is working for the Columbia Lumber Company and Mrs. Axfort is employed in a drug store.
 Until the major work program or the base starts in April, few mcr are being hired and some are bein. laid off. Workers are being dis couraged from going to Anchorag, owing to the total lack of hous mg, according to information picket up by Eveland.
