BUILT BY GOVERNMENT
CONNECTING STEEL
A telegram was received by the
engineer in charge of the Alaskan En
gineering Commission here, instruct
ing him to put on a force of 100 men
as soon as possible for the purpose of
constructing a good serviceable
wagon road connecting the end of steel

on the coast division, at Indian creek.
The instructions contained in the
telegram referred to indicated that the
work alloted to his division on the
wagon road, was to be from the end
of steel at mile 365 (Lignite) to Carlo

distance of about 35 miles. It is ex

point, and it is expected that the steel
will be laid on it In the course of the

GREAT BRITAIN CLAIMS
TRADE SOUTH AMERICA
BONDON, June 21 (by Associated
Press).—Belief that Great Britain can
have the trade of South America for
the asking' despite the competition
which the United States has built up
there during the war, was expressed
by Gordon Ross, formerly financial edi
tor of the Buenos Aires Standard, In
an address he delivered here recently.
Mr. Ross is quoted as saying that there
Is in some South American republics a
jealous fear of the extension of the
influence of the United States and he
repeated the statement that It had
been cynically said in South America
that the Monroe doctrine meant not so
much "America for the Americans” as
“America for North Americans.”
Mr. Ross told his hearers that Brit
ish neglect of advertising in South Am
erica had an important effect upon
their trade; that it was important that
catalogues should be published in the
language of the people and that prices
should be quoted in the currency of
the country.
