CANNERY CREWS WILL
RETURN EARLIER THAN USUAL
Ous Borgen, one of Seward’s pro
gressive merchants, is in town today
on his way home from a trip to Pa

the cannery crews and outfits will be
shipped north a month earlier than
usual, the packers anticipating a big'
season. "Most of the Alaskans I talk
ed to are going to return this spring,” I
said Borgen. "While there may be a
scarcity of skilled help there will be
i
plenty of laborers for all classes of
work in the territory."
