SEWARD IS SLOW
Seward business men are not on
the alert as Anchorage, remarked an
oldtimer from the Inlet city who ar
rived in town the other day. He point
out that sometime ago a crew was
working some distance out of town, 35
men to be exact, but on the day fol
lowing arrival at the camp only five
men showed up on the job. “Now if
that had taken place over at Anchor
age we would have kept those other
| five men in town, as well.” the old
timer concluded.
