Freight SurChargeS
 To Be Cut

WASHINGTON War risk in surance costs and wartime freight surcharges on shipments to and from Alaska are being continually reduced, 9 Maritime Commission spokesman said this week. But. he added, there will be no wiping off of these additional costs "in one fell swoop" There may still be some Japanese mines or war wrecked derelicts floating around the Pacific, he explained.
 However, there has been a downward trend for some time and these reductions may be ex- peeted to continue.
 The government has been out of the war risk insurance business since last July when the private underwriters undertook to handle the whole job The government had stepped in merely because the private companies were not set up to take the whole load at the start of the war.
 The surcharges were put on to compensate for higher operating costs. As these costs decrease. re- ductions in the charges may be expected

NOTICE

There seems to be a misconcep- tion around town that l am avail able on minutes notice to saly- ice plumbing, oil burners. refrig- orators and electrical equipment This is all wrong.
 I made an attempt for eight and one-haf years to maintain a bus mess in these lines. but either the products that l represented. or my self, or both were not sufficiently appreciated to make il possible for me to make a living. There fore I was forced to close out my business and go to work for wages in order to pay off indebtedness which I incurred for reasons that would not do credit to the munich pality, or look very good in print, so, just let us say that I went broke.
 There is no question that Wran- gell does need a service of this kind, but in view of the fact that I was not given a chance to make it when I offered this service, there is no reason why I should continue to take care of equip ment that needs servicing now.
 It is three years ago last May since I closed out my business, and I have been all this time paying off indebtedness on that business out of wages earned working for Mr. Brueger. I am at present em- ployed seven days q week ill q year, around industry, where all the work that I am physically able to put out is required of me. Therefore, it is impossible for me to take on any extra work around town With the war over now, l believe that some good man could be induced to come to Wrangell.
