You and each of you will please take
notice that by an Order of the Court,

LABOR PROBLEM
IS SERIOUS
Section Crews Must Be Used for
Ballasting Because of
Shortage
Men for grade, station and section
crews are in great demand on this di
vision of the United States railroad.
R. J. Weir, engineer in charge, now
has 750 men employed on this division
and said this morning that he was
employing all comers, and that there
is no excuse for any man in this part
of Alaska being out of employment.
Ballasting of the line between Sew
ard and Mile 12 will be commenced
soon and it looks as though it will be
necessary to use the section crews
from all along the line as there are
no other men available.
