David and April Hilton Sykes, Publishers Letters to Beware of bogus job info kits To the Editor: Those of us affiliated with the Alaska Highway Pipeline Project and concerned about the appearance of ads around the country which purport to sell information that will enable a person to land a "high paying job" on our project. We would appreciate your cooperation in warning readers in your area that some of the information con tained in these so-called "job information kits" is mislead ing. To begin with, our current project schedule calls for pipeline construction to com mence in 1983. As a result, we will not be doing any sub stantial hiring until at least 1982. Even then, most hiring will be done through execution contractors who will be an nounced at the appropriate time in the "Alaskan News line," our monthly newsletter, and through press releases. In addition, detailed in formation concerning the terms and conditions of em- ployment and the selection of those contractors who will perform the field construction of our project is not available What's your opinion? , ... i . ";""' - AM 1 J t y:-. Question of the week : "Do you think 1981 will be better than 1980 was?" "I'm hoping so, "says Lydia Wilson. Heppner, "because the last year has been an awful one - pay and everything. I think us old folks should have a little more than we're getting."

Holland, Jr. , a native of Heppner, is included with 285 students in the fall quarter dean's list at Oregon Institute of Technology in the Editor pipeline at this time. These matters will be the subject of federal and state regulations, col lective bargaining agree ments, and competitive bid ding practices. Further, much of the mater ial in these "job information kits" is available free from a variety of sources, including the State of Alaska's Depart ments of Labor and Com merce. No other distributions are authorized or sanctioned by the sponsor companies for the project, except through legitimate media outlets such as your publication. Therefore, we would ap preciate any effort on your part to caution readers in your area about these "job inform ation kits". It would be a shame to have people throw away good money on these materials or to add to Alaska 's long list of unemployed per sons because of them. Your interest and coopera tion in this matter are appreciated. Peter W'.
