WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.-Finnish Minister to the U. S.

 This circumstance led to specu- lation in diplomatic quarters as to whether Finland might be at least putting out a feeler for possible peace terms.

SEASONAL WORKERS
 AUGMENT ALASkA'S t SUPPLY OF LABOR

sAlaska's labor supply is being somewhat augmented by workers who have been employed in can neries and other seasonable occupa- tions that have now closed down for the year, according to R. E. Barnes, Acting Director for the United States Employment Office in Alaska.
 Seven workers arrived during the weekend from Petersburg, who inn mediately upon reporting to the U. S. Employment office were referred to the local sawmill where they were given work, he said.
 The U. S. Employment office is making an effort to contact all seasonal workers in an effort to shift them to defense and other essential work within the Territory, MT. Barnes said.
 All workers who are being laid off seasonal occupations are re- quested to contact the U. s. Employ ment office in the area in which they live where they can be assured of immediate work, he stated. It IS hoped that workers in seasonal oc- equations will remain in Alaska to help in the vast amount of con- struction work now underway rather thap leave the Territory this year for vacations or seek work elsewhere, MT. Barnes said.
 In addition to the workers from Petersburg, three men arrived from Cordova who were referred to the U. S. Employment office to de- fense project in this area.

Ellen Repp In Concert
 In Seattle

Through the songs of Grieg the beauties of subjugated Norway were brought poignantly to mind last evening by those who listened to Ellen Repp, contralto, a descendant of this race, at The Metropolitan says the Seattle Times of Scptem- Der g. A resplendent, titian-haired Viking-like person in her gold satin gown, she sang a benefit for those men in Camp Little Norway, at Ottawa, Canada, who are training to be flyers in order to bring back freedom to their country.
 Sincerity and simplicity charac- terized her program, devoted large 1 ly to Grieg in deference to those many persons present of Norwegian descent, but scattered here and there with classic, romantic and modern numbers
 The Seattle Times music critic, who signs his articles By B. G." in special writeup said:
 While not at her best, Ellen Repp's performance at the Metro politan Theatre last night, spon- sored by the Washington State branch of the Camp Little Norway Association, did not lack excellence in every part. Warming up slowly on her first group of Norwegian songs and Voice di Donna aria from La Gioconda," by Ponchielli, she found her pace and sang Wolff's "Faden" with beautiful re- straint. Strauss "Befreit" conclud- ed the second group, after which she sang her first encore. Ortrud's s Curse" from "Lohengrin.' This is the first time Miss Repp has sung Ortrud in public, and upon (the mention of it by friend back stage, she remarked laughingly, Well, it's loud, anyway"
 She charmed her audience with a group of selections from Grieg' $ "Haughtussa Cycle" as she ex- plained in her rich voice the stories told in the songs Their varied moods gave her the opportunity to display the sense of dramatic in- depreciation she possesses. "Kom Kjyra," the Norwegian Echo Song, was her next encore and could scarcely have been better for tone quality or expression, although some of her earlier songs required that her voice be used too much in the upper range, where it was not always true.
 Favorite of the last group was the Negro spiritual, City Called Heaven arranged by H. Johnson. Miss Repp catches the spirit of abandon and humor in these folk songs, mirroring them in her voice, singing with a twinkle in her eve. She sang a second later as an en- core, 'Massa's and MisSus' Dyin'"
 The feeling that her breath con- trol was faulty on occasion was forgotten in her last encore, Dan ny Boy" so often sung that, to be appreciated, it must be sung excep- tionally. It was, as she created a mood around it and filled it with her mellow tones. That was her last song; it tasted like more.
 Miss Repp was fortunate in hav- ing MT. Arville Belstad as her &C., companist, for he gave her the support and background expected of a competent musician.
