“Food Supplies
Not Critical In
Alaskan pities”
(Continued from Page One)
“emergency” in Alaska.
“There is no emergency in most
cities in the Territory,” declared
one official. “And there won’t be
for many weeks in many towns,
many months in others.”
Much of the air-freight business
to Alaska now consists of machin
ery and parts, mail-order goods,
dry goods and beverages.
Arthur G. Woodley, president of
i Pacific Northern Airlines, said his
firm has not yet had calls for more
space than could be supplied
quickly.
Some produce firms are charter
ing small boats to carry cargo
northward, while others are con
tinuing use of airfreight as they
have the past several years.
Suppliers pointed out the relief
ship Square Sinnet will be far less
than half loaded when it sails for
Nome and other Norton Sound
ports.
Nome, (^P)—The Nome Nugget
quoted a local merchant today as
saying last night's sailing of the
Square Sinnet from Seattle with
only half a load is "foolish."
Under special agreement of
striking CIO longshoremen, the
vessel was loaded in Seattle as a
special "relief" ship for Nome and
the Norton Sound area.
The un-named merchant made
. these complaints: Suppliers in the
States were unable to get mer
chandise to the ship because of the
rail embargo and the short notice
for placing orders; supplies from
Portland, Ore. and the south were
held up by the rail embargo on
shipments to struck ports. He
charged that those conditions
showed arrangements had not been
made except for Puget Sound area
suppliers, particularly of Seattle,
and expressed the belief many
items will be short or completely
out this winter in Nome.
An Alaska Steamship company
official expressed the belief earlier
this week that orders for the ‘‘re
lief ship” were low because the
western Alaskans laid in supplies
during the summer, after getting
long advance warning on the
strike prospect.
