Death Takes Salmon Executive
SEATTLE, — W. F. Coulson, j
assistant to A. I. Ellsworth, ex
ecutive secretary to the Canned
Salmon Industry, died in Seat
tle Tuesday morning May 30.
from a heart attack
Aocompanied by his wife, Net
tie, Coulson was about to board
a special boat for a Memorial
Day excursion to see the King
and Queen of England at Victoria
B. C. He was stricken before the
boat left the pier, and died in
stantly.
Employed by the Canned Sal
mon Industry’s advertising com
mittee, Mr. Cou Ison's duties were
mainly financial and accounting,
as well as to supervise it he dis
tribution of advertising display
material throughout the United
Stales.
Commenting on Mr. Coulson’s
long and colorful career in the
Salmon business, Mr. Ellsworth
said: "I have known of Bill’s
connection in the Salmon busi
ness since 1910. He worked exten
sively both in Alaska and Puget
Sound where he had a host of
friends. Numbered among his
closest friends was Alf M. Lan
don, republican candidate for the
presidency of the United States,
a boyhood friendship which con
tinued through the years.”
Mr. Coulson is survived by his
widow, a son, W. F. Coulson Jr.
of the U. S. S. Augusta, now sta
tioned at Shanghai, two brothers.
Fred of Harper, Kansas, and Ar
thur of Braidentown, Florida.
Diesel Engine System must be
Kept Clean in Order to Insure
Good Working f'onditions
The Fishing Gazette in an ar
ticle on the necessity of keeping
clean the Diesel engine system,
says dn part:
Piston rings are of the great
est importance in a Diesel en
gine. A whole lot of money has
been invested in developing pis
ton rings and a whole lot of mon
ey has been spent on piston
rings. No one condition can be
blamed for piston ring failure
but clogging of the rings is a
big reason. Excessive tempera-1
ture of the top rings as a result
oif combustion gases leadsto de
composition of the lube oil on
these rings and formation of
carbon deposits which clog the
rings in their grooves and cause
cylinder scoring or possible seiz
frig of the piston. The ring must
move in its groove, otherwise rot
gasses will leak past the rings.
Stuck rings can be removed
from the piston by soaking the
piston in kerosene for several
hours or boiling it in soapy water
several hours. If the rings are
badly burned into ,the grooves
they must be broken out by
using a short length of brass rod
and a hammer. Do not chisel
them out as you might damage
the grooves. The rings can be
wiped clean with a cloth. Do not
use waste. The use of waste is
not good in cleaning Deisel , en
gines as there are many fine
holes and oil ducts which may
become clogged by the smallest
amount of the waste clinging to
them.
Every fuel oil system and ev
ery lubricating oil system for
every Diesel engine must have
sufficient filtering and straining
units to protect the engine. It
is a good plan to use duplex fil
ters (two strainers together) so
that one can be cleaned while the
other is in use, so that the flow
is not stopped.
We wonder is any fisherman
ever cleans out his fuel tanks
and piping system in his boat.
After the tank and piping lhas
been drained a light liquid, such
as gasoline or kerosene, should
be used to clean out these tanks
and pipes and everything drain
ed out of the system at a drain
cock which should be located at
the low point of every system.
The longer sediment remains
without being removed the hard
er i)t becomes and the longer and
more costly the job of removing
it.

$10,000,000 for Alaska Business
I
I
I ^ ■ I
IN JUST ONE AVERAGE YEAR the Canned Salmon Industry brings
over $10,000,000 to Alaska. This is money paid directly for local labor,
lumber, wire, cannery supplies, taxes. It is money which benefits not
only Alaskan fishery workers and workers in other industries, but also
Alaska’s professional people and merchants, whom it reaches in the form
of trade for services and goods. Thanks to the Salmon Industry, Alaska
prospers.
THAT MILLION DOLLAR LOOK! While Doris Duke Cromwell, oft-called “richest
girl in America," inspects the handiwork shown by Mary Drillon at the metropolitan junior achieve
