J SCARCITY Of
MEN CONTINUES
Scarcity of labor on the railroad
continues, thert being places for 300
men on the Central division and over
half of that many here. On the Cen
tral division extra gangs, steel and
section, are now running short and a
number of commission jobs are being
done with insufficient help. There has
been a good sized exodus of railroad
laborers of late, due to their migra
tory tendencies, coupled with offers of
supposedly better jobs elsewhere. The
departure of theso men from construc
tion work left the Commission shorter
handed than before.
There is no trouble in keeping other
classes of help and the Commission is
very fortunately situated with the kit
chen help and the skilled or tomi
skilled trades. The station men and
their laborers arc finishing their con
tracts right along and there is not a
heavy call for these men and those
who wish to take new jobs when they
finish their contracts are being placed.

CAMP AT MILE 83
Construction hedaquarters at Mile
83, where Resident Engineer Secrest
is in charge, had a close call from a
forest fire Saturday. The fire started
in the vicinity of Bird Point, where
deep tundra and dry moss made it
impossible to extinguish the fires
started by clearing gangs, and swept
down the arm and up to the crest of
the mountains, burning over several
square miles.
Phone poles in the burned section
were destroyed and communication
with Anchorage was broken for a tune.

How Easy It Bends—
—that sole of “Hipress”—the won
derful rubber footwear that’s
molded in one solid piece.
‘Hipress’' is made by the new
High Pressure Process — a Good
rich invention and the greatest im
provement of footwear making of
the century.
•r
This process leaves the rubber in
the finished boot springy—live —
flexible. The sole bends freely and
comfortably with your foot. Yet
this rubber is so everlastingly tough
that it Actually Outwears Steel 1
That means no more half-soles
and hobnails—no more repair bills 1
He sure to get the genuine. Look
for the “lied Line ’ Round the Top.”
