NEW
TRANSPORTATION
PICTURE
YjfE
rather
imagine
that
the
possi-vii
bility
of
a
pulp
and
paper
mill
-;ng
established
in
Ketchikan
has
ir
ed
considerable
talk
in
Seattle
hipping
circles
already,
says
the
Ketchikan
(Alaska)
Chronicle.
The
carriers
won't
want
any
development
occurring
that
tends
to
divert
cargo
from
their
established
coastal
operations.
Yet
it
is
well
known
that
the
U.
S.
forest
service
in
its
years
of
surveying
and
planning
for
pulp-paper
production
has
figured
on
us-in"-
the
Canadian
National
Railways
railhead
at
Prince
Rupert
as
the
spearhead
into
the
rich
midwest
newsprint;
and
paper
market.
.
The
advantage,
of
course,
is
that
under
equalized
freight
rates
now
governing-,
the
midwest
market
can
buy
from
or
ship
to
Rupert
for
the
same
rail
tariff
as
to
or
from
Seattle.
That
means
that
the
establishment
of
a
car
ferry
between
Rupert
and
Ketchikan
would
give
us
close
to
terminal
rates,
which
Seattle
cannot
hope
to
offer.
Then
most
of
our
fresh
and
frozen
fish
would
go
out
through
Rupert
and
a
large
part
of
the
wholesale
business
of
Alaska
would
come
in
through
Rupert,
with
warehouses
probably
being,
established
in
Ketchikan
instead
of,
as
at
present,
Seattle.
That
would
mean
much
to
the
First
City.
We
don't
pretend
to
know
the
shipping
game
but
if
its
operators
are
smart
turkey
they
had
better
set
up
some
high'ly
attractive
rates
for
transporting
paper
out
of
Alaska.
Not
that
we
want
to
see
the
car
ferry
project,
which
has
been
a
dream
for'
so.
long,"
face
an
early
death.
We
simply
are
weary
of
Seattle
being
shortsighted
in
its
dealings
with
Alaska.
Officials
of
the
Alcoa
Mining
Company,'
which
now
has
about
5(J
persons
at,
yprk
at
Edna
Bay,
plan
to
contract
with
Foss
Tug
and
Barge
or
a
similar
barge
operator
to
carry
limestone
rock
"from
the
Edna
Bay
quarry)
which
i
being
developed
rapidly,
to
markets
in
Oregon
and
Washington.
Yet
the
three
existing
carriers
need
the
return
load
such
things
as
limestone
and
paper
would
provide.
It
should
be
possible
for
them
to
create
a
rate
structure
to
handle
tthis
cargo
and
make
a
little
on
it.
If
they
can't,
of
course,
they
may
open
the
way
to
creation,
of
new
shipping
facilities
such
as
the
car
ferry
to
Rupert
that
will
revolutionize
the
entire
Alaskan
transportation
picture.
This
revolution
not
only
would
bring
railroad
cars
into
Alaskan
ports
for
unloading
and
reloading
but
it
also
would
let
tourists
drive
the
grounds.
"Keep
off
the
grass"
signs
were
also
moved
from
the
lawns
and
scattered
about.
"There
is
no
particular
objection
to
outdoor
recreation,
particularly
since
we
are
so
close
to
the
Civic
Centre,
but
we
do
think
the
young
people
should
be
careful
about
the

DECISIVE
ACTION
PAYS
OFF
action
had
at
least
deferred
DECISIVE
another
serious
industrial
tie-up
in
the
United
States
at
the
end
of
the
week
when
the
Brotherhood
of
Railway
Trainmen,
at
the
eleventh
hour,
postponed
their
nationwide
walkout.
President
Truman
had
taken
over
the
railways
of
the
nation
and
called
on
the
Army
to
assist
in
operating
them
after
the
railway
managements
and
the
unions
had
failed
to
compose
their
differences.
Meanwhile
the
truce
in
the
soft
coal
miners'
strike
has
entered
the
second
of
its
scheduled
two
weeks
and
the
coal
miners
are
due
to
walk
off
their
jobs
again
this
week-end
unless
an
agreement
is
reached.
No
doubt,
if
such
an
agreement
is
not
reached,
the
President
will
take
action
on
the
mines
similar
to
that
which
staved
off
the
railway
strike.
Similarly,
there
are
signs
that
government
action
in
connection
with
the
British
Columbia
timber
workers'
strike,
most
serious
current
industrial
tie-up
in
Canada
today,
may
likewise
lead
to
an
arrangement
for
ending
the
now
five-day-old
strike.
The
week
thus
opens
with
a
much
more
pleasant
outlook
as
far
as
the
industrial
picture
is
concerned
unless
we
are
inclined
to
worry
about
the
implications
that
may
be
involved
by
the
failure
of
the
two
sides
to
industrial
disputes
to
be
able
to
settle
their
differences,
thus
paving
the
way
for
the
virtual
nationalization
of
industry
in
order
to
keep
it
going.
We
seem
to
be
getting
nearer
to
socialization
all
the
time
whether
we
like
it
or
not.

devoted

quoted
specific
examples
where,
by
the
use

of

could
be
established.
They
could
then
be

The
success
of
the
scheme
was
being
more
and
more
widely
recognized
by
re
turning
veterans
who,
by
reason
of
their
four
or
five
years
away
from
civilian
activities,
were
In
a
splendid
position
to
know
its
value.
It
was
agreed
by
the
committee
that
the
place
for
much
of
this
counselling
was
In
the
High
Schools.
Trained
counsellors
familiar
with
local
condi
tions,
Industries
and
possibilities
could
be
of
inestimable
benefit
to
the
boys

of

In

to
an
enquiry
from
the
local
committee,
H.
A.
Jones,
Director
of
Technical
Education
for
the
Provincial
Department
of

sitated
that
it
was
hoped
to

was
expected
soon
and
the

would
be
Indicated.
A.

Crawley
of
the

was
present
In

to
the
invitation
of
the
committee.
He
said
he
was
very

in
the
matter
of
naming
apprentices.
There
was
a
worthwhile
future
for
the
lad
who
was
willing
to
learn
the
tiade
thoroughly.
The
matter
of
W3ges
paid
was
certainly
an
im
portant
consideration
but
for
the
early
part
of
the
tralnln
ihe
lad
should
not
expect
the
wages
of
an
Improver
or
Jour
neyman.
Increases
would
be
given
as
the

showed
iin
provement
and
increased

J.

also
emphasized
