With the establishing of several
engineering camps, stores and othei
work parties’ camps, and the letting
of contracts for commencing aggres
sive constriction work on the Fair
banks line as soon as possible, i1
was found that a temporary tele
phone line was an absolute necessitj
for the smooth working of the sum
mer’s construction program. It is
being daily demonstrated that the
only line now existing is woefullj
inadequate to handle the volume oi
business being transacted over , this
line.
An extra line was strung across
the river last week and workmen ar<
now busy extending the telephon*
service on the temporary line to th<
various engineering and other camp:
and stores toward Fairbanks.
It is expected that camp 423
which will be the headquarters o
Resident Engineer Kestly, will D<
reached with the new’ telephone lim
in a few days and regular servic
established; and that by the timi
frost conditions will permit of activi
construction operations being com
menced, all camps will be connecte:
up with headquarters office iq Xe

through business with Fairbanks.

OFFERED NENANA
BONO SELLERS
i The sale of Victory loan bonds
commenced today in Nenana, and
although, so far, only a few bonds
have been sold, it is expected that
by the end of the day several more
will have been disposed of. The
drive will last from today until
Saturday, May 10, by which time,
it is confidently expected, that Xe
| nana will again go “Over the top”
jand, as on all previous Liberty loan
I campaigns, oversubscribe her quota.
The sale of Victory loan bonds
| at the office of the special dis
bursing agent of the A. E. C. was
; started off by Albert Lundborg,
,! who invested $1500 in these securi
. I ties His example was followed b>
, i many others, and by two o'clock
. | this aafternoon over $3,000 hac
' been subscribed.
The amount of the issue of the
Victory loan is four and one-hali
i billion dollars, of which $954,90C
has been alloted to Alaska, with
X'enana’s quota fixed at $38,150
The bonds bear interest at the rate
of 4%'' as from May 20, 1919
maturing on May 20, 1923. Bonds
! may be had on payment of the
\ whole amount down or on the in
stalment plan as before. The pur
chase of bonds on the latter plan
: is made easier by being spread over
i a longer period than heretofore.
The Ladies' committee, of which
' Mrs. Carl Schmidt is chairman, will
again canvass the town and out
: lying districts, and as the ladies
; have alwavs been foremost in mat
,
ters of patriotic endeavor, it is
1 certain that the results achieved
by them will materially aid in plac
ing Xenana again to the forefront
by oversubscribing its quota.
The names of Mrs. Schmidt’s
committee will be announced to
morrow, as this cannot be done to
day, owing to the absence from town
1 of Frank Doner, special disbursing
agent, who has charge of the loan
campaign in this district.
As an incentive to the efforts
of those who will be engaged in
getting subscriptions locally. Gov
ernor Riggs has wired the local
Council of Defense that two Ger
man helmets will be awarded to the
two securing the largest amount of
'subscriptions. He has requested
that the names of these two be sent
to him so that the helmets could
be forwarded to them direct.
The message from Governor Riggs
to the local Council of Defense,
relative to the German helmets, is
as follows: “Your district has been
allotted two German helmets to be
given to the best two individual
workers in securing subscriptions to
the Victory Loan.
“Give this all possible publicity
and advise me by wire the names of
persons who rendered best work,
and the helmets will be forwarded
direct to them from this office.”
