Columbia Brewery
J
Has Much to Do
In Alaska
That the Pacific Northwest can
definitely attribute to Alaska a
generous part in the upbuiIding
of its industries, is the opinion of
Harry R. Lawton, vice-president
of Columbia Breweries, Inc., at
Tacoma, whose visits to Ala-ska
will be recalled by his many
friends.
"Our Alaska business has con
tinued to double and treble, and
as a consequence we have, in the
fiV|? years since beer came back
completely rebuilt and expanded
our original plant of 20.000 bar
rels capacity to a thoroughly
modern, reinforced concrete and
steel million-doilar brewery, co.v
ering approximately one city
block.
"The Alaska business, respons
ible in substantial measure for
this development, comes not only
from Nome but from every city
of consequence throughout the
Territory, as well as from the
most remote trading posts and
mining and fishing centers.
“During the five years beer has'
been back, Columbia Bf weries,
Irnc., brewers of Alt Heidelberg
beer, has expended $1,753,000 in
payrolls: $3,500,000 in taxes, the
tax bill for 1937 alone approxi
mating $900,000; $2.408,OOO in the
purchase of materials and sup-!
plies; and $1,000,000 in plant and
equipment.
“We would be ungrateful if we
failed to acknowledge the part
played in this development bv
our customers and flribnds thru
out the Territory.”

TWO Kinds of Claims
.. It is very important to distin
guish between a lode and a pla
cer deposit. If a deposit is lode,
it should be staked as a lode
claim: If it is placer, it should be
staked as a placer claim. If both
a lode and a placer deposit are
found in the same area, it should
be located as both a placer and
a lode claim.
