The annual trimming of forces in 1
the employ of the Alaskan Engi
neering commission is in full swing. |
The weekly force report of the past:
several weeks has indicated a steady |
curtailment of work, and last week j
the force reduction was given a big
boost by the closing down of the
dragline camp south of Healy, where j
frost conditions necessitated a sus-1
pension of activities.
The force reduction is now being
carried to the other camps along [
the line, every day adding to the j
number of unemployed in Nenanaj
and Fairbanks. Practically all the
section men on the Tanana Valley
and Nenana-Fairbanks lines have
been laid off and the next few days,
it is believed, will find the sections
south of N'enana equally deserted.
; The section foremen will be re- j
; tained and will do track walking
| during the winter, in addition to
i their other duties.
A section foreman and six men
! are still on the payroll at Fairbanks,
| and another gang will continue work
; at Section One, north of N'enana,
| until a rock slide in that neighbor
j hood has been made safe for winter.
(
As a result of the early release
i of the men, many of them have left
or are preparing to leave for the
coast, where there is said to be con
siderable work still in progress.
Aside from a little prospecting,
there will be no work done on the
Tanana and Xenana permanent
bridges this winter. The cement j
which was to have been shipped to |
X’enana during the summer for this
work was diverted to the Anchorage
division, with the result that the
commencement of the work will be ,
delayed another year.
