WINTER WHEAT
CROP PREDICTED
NEAR RECORD SIZE

WASHINGTON, April 11-tR-
The government today forecast this
years winter wheat crop will be
CT near-record size if growing con-
ditions continue favorable until
harvest time.
This forecast-made by the Agri-
culture department - raised the
possibility of prewar production
controls on the 1850 crop to pre-
vent bigger wheat surplus.
Such controls, if invoked, would
include planting allotments and
marketing quotas for individual
growers.
The department said conditions
April l indicated a winter wheat
cop of 1,0l9,686, 900 bushels. The
record is 1,O6S. 048,OOo in 1947 The
crop has averaged about 726,000, 900
for the past ten years.

TAKES OFF
LAST TRIP

CHILMARK, Mass, April LIZ
-Martha's Vineyards last whaling
skipper, Capt. Ellsworth L. West,
died during the night in his seth
year.
Capt. West began whale hunting
at II and was master of his own
vessel at rs. He made many voyages
to the Arctic chasing the bow head
before the gold rush of 98 at
tracted his attention.
He purchased the revenue cutter
Bear from the government and
carried gold seekers from San
Francisco to, Alaska He generally
was credited with making the first
charts of the inside Alaskan pas
sage and also with opening the
first coal mine in Alaska, from

OUTSIDE WORKERS
BYPASS JUNEAU;
NO LABOR FLOOD

No flood of outside workers has
bit the labor market here, Gus H
Gissberg, manager of the Juneau
office of the Territorial Employ
ment Service said today.
Workers aboard Westward bound
yessels have come ashore to in
luire about job possibilities, he
said. They evidently stayed by their
ships when they learned of the
Employment situation here, and
went on to flood on the Anchorage
market.
Employment is beginning to
loosen up a bit, after the stiffest
winter in many a season, Gissberg
said.
Private and governmental con-
struction work will bring openings
Tor a number of skilled and UNI
skilled laborers within several
weeks. Construction on the new
Community Building has employed
good sized crew, and with the
beginning of road work, there will
oe reasonable number of work
openings, Gissberg said.
Civil engineers with highway ex-
perience are in particular demand
~ the Public Roads Administration
and the Alaska Road Commission
Tor work throughout the Territory
Engineering aids will also be needed
ater on, he said.
Occasional openings are available
Tor deck hands on government tugs
going to the Westward.
On the feminine side of the en-
rloyment picture, there is an
almost continual demand for ex-
perienced stenographers and senior
clerks, but demand for mattresses
sales clerks is sporadic.
Summing Up the employment
picture here, Gissberg said that
things are picking up very slowly
rom the tough winter. There is no
surplus of jobs available, and still
considerable unemployment.
