GOES INTO COURT
Anchorage, Oct. 9.—Hildur Swan
sou was awardde judgment for f 250
against Hazel Brlttou in United
States Commissioner Leopold Da
vid's court. The suit was the re
sult of a disagreement between the
two orer the division of the grand
prize of |600 given by the Daily
Times In its subscription contest,
which waa won by Miss Britton.
From the evidence produced In
court It appears that e, Becret
agreement had been entered into
between the two glrla whereby they
were to work together for Miss
Britton's success and divide the
money equally,
Mfes Swan#on In her complaint
alleged that Miss Britton after
having won the prize refused to
carry out this agreement. Miss
Swanson's contention that she was
entitled to half the award wae sus
tained by the court.
Miss Britton, who worked for the
Alaskan Engineering commission,
has resigned her position and hafl
gone to Cordova.
Commissioner Riggs has caused to
be announced from Alaskan Engi
neering headquarters Bt Nenana the
statement that the July payroll of
the commission was the largest of
any month since work on the in
terior end of the railroad was com
menced. _ The ftiures issued show
that the' general payroll called
for the expenditure during July of
$69,268.80 and that th< sum of
411,851.10 wa$ expended on worJc
on the Tanana valley railroad and
to government railroad contractors.
