MORE ApPRENTIrfS
 NEEDED IN ALASKA
 FOR SKILLED WORK

There are twice as many re- quests for skilled workers as there are for unskilled workers accord ing to facts presented this week to the Territorial Apprenticeship Board by the Alaska Territorial Employment Service. ATES also told the Board that this ratio rises to a point in the fall sea- son where there are three times as many requests for skilled over unskilled.
 The Board, which is attempting to revive the apprenticeship pro- gram in Alaska, was also told that as a result of these requests and the shortage of skilled workers here, it is often necessary to go outside the Territory in order to fill em- ployment quotas.
 In hopes of stimulating the pro- gram, the Board decided at the meeting to attempt to secure em- ployment for apprentices on var ious government construction pro- jects within Alaska. It has also taken steps toward the consolida- , ton of local apprenticeship boards. It recommended that the Building Trades Apprenticeship Council and the Miscellaneous Trades Council in all towns merge so that the program is more heav- fly concentrated on it's entire ob- jectives and is not divided in it's efforts.

ton of Alaska Steamship and
 Northland.
 The interim agreement restricts Alaska Transportation and North land to serve Southeast Alaska and Alaska Steamship to serve Western Alaska Alaska Trans portation contends Northland vio- lated this.
 J. A. Talbot, Alaska TranSporta- tion's agent at Ketchikan, testified that during the last summer, af- ter he had agreed with cannery managers his company would take
 out their salmon pack, they noti- fled him at the last moment that the business had been given to Alaska Steamship.
 He charged Alaska Steamship brought pressure upon the can- nery owners to force them to use its service. He testified some can neries also had branches in West Tern Alaska, served by Alaska Steamship, and said in one in stance the manager of an Eastern
 Alaska Cannery was told by Alaska
 Steamship if he did not ship by
 it his workers would not te taken
 out at the end of the season.
 Gilbert S. Skinner, President of Alaska Steamship denied his company had used any influence to
 cause the Southeast Alaska cannery managers to refuse Alaska Trans
 portation business.
 Norton Clapp, President of Alaska Transportation, and other officials
 of the company urged the Com
 mission to set aside the interim operation agreement, require North land to consolidate with Alaska Steamship and permit operation of the two to all parts Of the
 Territory

 Monopoly Talk Tiresome
 Jackson replied he was tired of hearing a lot oI talk about the Se- attle lines being a monopoly and added:
 When we arranged the interim servIce to Alaska we tried to get other companies to start service Io Alaska and not single one would do so. Only the Seattle lines were interested
 T am going to defend Seattle for there has been a lot of loose talk about it being a monopoly. think a lot of unjust criticism has been heaped on the Seattle com panles. I want to see the service improved to Alaska and there has been nothing and is nothing now to prevent Portland, Ore, San Fran cisco or Los Angeles firms enter ing the Alaska trade to do so If they wish"
 Prior to the Governors testimony Norton Clapp, President of Alaska Transportation Company urged that his company be permitted to serve all Alaska.
 During Maritime Commission hearings this week Commissioner Joseph K. Carson asked shipping companies to submit a plan for es- tablishmsnt of a permanent ship ping service to Alaska.
