More Jobs for Alaskans
IT’S A FACT that the Canned Salmon Industry provides more job- lor
Alaskans during the fishing season than any other industry does. It’s al-o
a fact that the packers hang out the “Help Wanted'’ sign at other times
of the year. Each fall and spring, hundreds of men are employed in the
maintenance of canneries and other equipment; furnishing construction
and box shook materials, wire netting, supplies the Industry needs to
operate. Thai’s why good times for the Salmon Industry mean good times
throughout Alaska.

Approximately 1500 grocery
salesmen calbng on retail stores
