GOVT.RAILWAY
IS IN NEED OF
MOREMONEY
ANCHORAGE, Feb. 26.—If the gov
ernment decides that in order to
lessen the industrial shock incident to
the sudden transition of the country
from a war to a peace basis public
work should be undertaken to pro
vide employment for returned sol
diers, then, in such circumstances, the
federal railroad in Alaska, according
to high officials, should be given spe
cial consideration. It is an enterprise,
they argue, not in contemplation but
in progress of construction, and to
conduct the work on a more extensive
scale now than was originally planned
would not add to the ultimate cost,
but would merely hasten the road’s
completion.
With a view of placing honorably
discharged army men in necessary
1 governmental work, William C. Edes,
chairman of the Alaskan engineering
commission, is supporting the pro
posal that congress make an extra ap
propriation for construction activities
on the railroad during the 1919 sea
son. The amount of $4,000,000 re
mains of the original appropriation al
1 lowed by congress for the building of
the line. Besides this sum, an addi
tional amount of several million dol
lars could be used to great advantage
next summer.
Former employees of the commis
. sion who enlisted in the army and
■ who recently were discharged are con
' stantly returning to Anchorage, and
1 these are only the advance guard of
■ the host that will come later.
At present the railroad job is re
■ duced to small proportions. To ex
i pand it to its former working strength
and thus provide employment for a
; material number of the men that left
it to join the colors, congress, declare
■ officials in charge of the work, should
make, besides the regular allowance,
1 an additional appropriation.

season, “The Flame of the Yukon,” at
8 o’clock at the Empress next Mon
day. This is essentially an Alaska
play, depicting life in the great placer
mining camps of the Northland, and
1 is filled with thrills and sensations.
In “The Flame of the Yukon” one gets
a better conception of the free, open
life in Alaska. The complaint of most
motion pictures which attempt to por
tray mining -scenes is that they are
not true to life. It is said that the
picture that will be presented Mon
1 day night overcomes this objection,
1 in that it gives a most real portrayal
of the wild frontier life in the North
land. It is a vivid replica of the early
