Two vessels will bring 7500 feet of lumber and other building material to Seward with Wothchargees due on the ground in weeks. The town lacks roofs and lodging as construction slows from material shortages. Officials warn that without rapid home and business building the town risks a damaged reputation as Alaska’s promising center. Citizens in good standing risk jury duty at Valdez.

He notes steamer Edith carried 210 tons of steel and six cars for Alaska Central at Seward, yet reports link cargo to Valdez. The feud centers on which town benefits from Alaska trade and rail plans.
