Anchorage recently. The issue ot lhM
Alaska railroad Record, for February

Lieut. Col. 11. I*. Warren, head of
the supply division for the Alaskan
Engineering Commission with head

Commission and the large quantities
of freight and commissary supplies t
be shipped from Seattle to Anchorage

coming year.
In speaking of the transportation
plans generally Lieut. Col. Wav* u
•aid:
“The most interesting item in The
Alaska Railroad Record this issue
is the circular setting forth the trans
portation agreement with the steam
ship companies. In abandoning the
plans for it* own steamer or ba»-ge

“It seems pertinent to point out
that inasmuch as a steamship fare in
cludes room and board which consti
tut »s about one half the cost of the
service and reduced rate secured is
actually half the transportation into,
that is, it is about equal to a half fare
on the railroad where one pays for his
own berth and meals. Dame rumor to
the contrary notwithstanding the
steamship companies do not intend to
raise them rates.

“Many old commission employees
in the states are planning a return to
ti.uSua. i'ne shipyards of Puget Sound
and Portland have reduced their forc
es to about one tenth the wartime fl;:
ure. The shortage ot cars at the lum
ber mills,, the uncertainty of the *ail
oad situation, and the general feeling
•if unrest in the States all tend to
make old Alaskans and many others
desire to try their luck in the north.
It is believed quite generally that con
ditions in the States will not improve
materially until after the presidential
election.”
