TO THE VOTERS OK NOME 1
AND THE SECOND DIVISION
Due to a death in the family, my presence 1
is required in California for the next several I
I months. I will therefore be unable to return to I
my home at Nome in time to actively participate
in the Primary Election of April 30th.
As I again seek reelection to the House of
Representatives of the Alaska Legisllature, I
again ask your support at the polls. As in the past,
I have no axe to grind, am not beholden to any
special interests, and will continue, if reelected,
to serve the best interests of the majority of our
people.

Canned Salmon
Ads to Appear
In Color 1940
Sales of canned salmon in re
tail stores throughout the United
States will be stimulated during
early summer months by the ap
pearance of more than fifteen
and a half million advertisements
in color in leading national house
hold magazines, according to the
advertising committee office of
the Canned Salmon Iudustry.
The first gun in the summer
campaign to clear distributors’
warehouses of salmon in advance
of the 1940 Alaska pack will be
a color advertisment in the June j
issue of Ladies’ Home Journal, |
: which boasts the largest circula
i tion of any magazine in the
world.
This advertisement will offer
an attractive cold salmon platter
for warm weather meals. The
j rich food values of canned sal
mon will be dramatised by ai
chart device which will tell mil j
lions of women readers of sal
mon under the headline: “Here
science pictures for you .the great
food values of canned salmon.”
Similar advertisements will ap!
pear in McCall’s magazine and
True story magazine.
In July issues of Ladies’ Home,
Journal, McCall’s and American |
Home magazines, more advertise
ments emphasizing health bene-1
fits of canned salmon meals will1
be published.
June issues will reach approxi;
mately eight million homes. In !
July magazines, advertisements;
of canned salmon will go to
more than seven and a half mil
lion homes.
To help retailers sell the sal
mon in their stores, the salmon
industry will also supply them
with specially designed store ban
ners calling attention to the del
icious meals that may be prepar
ed with canned salmon.
