FAVORS
LABOR FOR ALASKA
That the beginning of activities in
connection with the construction of
the government railroad in Alaska
will attract laborers from all parts
of the United States and Canada is
certain. There is great danger that
the country will be overrun with idle
men unless the government steps in
and forbids transportation companies
bringing the men north unless they
can show that they are not dependent
upon securing immediate employ
ment.
A gentleman now in Valdez has
received a letter from a contractor
who formerly operated a big con
struction crew on the National Trans
continental railway in Canada, In the
Hudson bay district. This man
stbtes that he hajs employed hun
dreds of Russians on contract work
in that section which he believes
presents simliar conditions to those
in Alaska. He says that the Russian
laborers make only about $3 per
week at home and are well satisfied
with the wages the average contractor
in America will pay them.
To quote the contractor: “They are
working conditions as they have not
been spoiled by coming into contact
with labor unions, but they excel the
world for energy and endurance in
a cold country. They prefer piece
.
work anil will labor every hour while
not sleeping. Am confident my gang
of Russians would be a success in
building the Alaska railroad.”—Valdez
Miner.

NO FRIVILOTIES III
[ MUNICH CARNIVAL
AMSTERDAM, Jan. 26—(Corres
pondence of the Associated Press)—
On the eve of the annual Munich Car
nival, a proclamation issued by the
military commander of Munich, Gen
eral von der Tann, urges the aban
donment of “frivilous entertainment
and dancing.” It says:
“Everybody is entitled to relaxation
and recreation, but both must accord
with the gravity of the times. That
is what our soldiers at the front would
demand of us; therefore no dancing
or any other amusements during the
coming carnival. The commander
trusts that the sound sense of the pub
lic will render unnecessary a specific
prohibition.
"Attention is drawn also to the
frivilous films, generally of French or
English origin, which are displayed
and concert programs are often so
compiled as to suggest anything but
that we are at war. The public takes
pleasure in afternoon 'coffee concerts'
which unfortunately are increasing,
and in frivilous operattas and danc
ing.”
