New Method of Fish
Preserving Uses Sea
Water Instead of Ice
VANCOUVER, B.C., 1AV-A new
method of preserving fish in re
frigerated sea water instead of
ice has been successful in tests
being conducted on British Col
umbia’s coast.
Officials of the Pacific Experi
mental Fisheries station here re
ported 20,000 pounds of blueback
salmon unloaded in Vancouver
'after being ke^t in cold sea
water were “in excellent con
dition.”
However, the officials added
the method has not yet been
proven commercially practicable.
They said cost of installing equip
ment and methods of handling
fish were still being studied.
A spokesman for B.C.* Packers
Ltd., said widespread use of the
method would mean a “drastic
change” in the system of fish
handling. However, he said the
company believed the new meth
od would probably improve the
quality of the fish.

CAB Rules No
Fare Reduction
U. S. - Alaska
WASHINGTON, WV-The Civil
Aeronautics Board ruled Friday
that the four lines flying between
Alaska and the United States may
not effect a proposed general re
duction in passenger fares.
The board ruled al9Fo that there
should be no fair differential be
tween the more luxurious service
provided by lines using DC-6B
aircraft and those using DC-4
planes.
The CAB ruling fixed minimum
fares on principal U. S.-Alaska
flights which are the same as
those now in effect except for a
slight reduction in the tourist rate
between Seattle and Ketchikan.
The “just and reasonable” mini
mum one-way fare on this run
should be $43, the board said.
A principal issue in the case,
which has been pending more
than a year and a half was the
contention of Alaska Airlines,
whose DC-4 service competes with
Pan American World Airways’
DC-6B service between Seattle
and Fairbanks, that the DC-4
fares should be lower.
By a 3-1 decision, the board
ruled that no differential was
warranted.
, In a dissent, CAB member Jo
seph B. Adams declared the effect
of the majority decision would
make Alaska Airlines’ position
“untenable in the competitive Se
attle-Fairbanks market.”
Adams declared CAB’s fare pol
icy should be sufficiently flexible
to recognize that the less modern
planes can perform useful service
but should not be expected to
command the same fare. He said
the public is willing to pay for
“an obviously more valuable and
attractive service.”
Transportation Strike
Ends in Los Angeles;
Union Wins Benefits
LOS ANGELES, (*>—1The clang
of trolleys and the roar of buses
echoed through this city’s streets
today for the first time in 34 days
as the longest transit strike in
local history ended.
Operators voted 1,152 to 493 at
a haass meeting yesterday to ter
minate Los / Angeles’ costliest
transportation tie-up.
The strike, which forced 900,000
daily riders to find other trans
portation, cost bus and trolley op
erators an estimated $710,000 in
lost pay, and the Los Angeles
Transit Lines $2,345,000 in lost
revenue.
The union members approved
a boost of 14 cents an hour in
three steps within a year. There
is also an escalator clause, effec
tive the second year; paid holi
days, four weeks vacation after
25 years, paid life insurance, and
minor changes in working condi
tion. The pact is for two years.
Operators, who have been re
ceiving $1.91 hourly, returned to
work at $1.97.

U. of Alaska Best
For U.S. Students
Now in Alaska
Students from the United States
who are earning tuition money
this summer in Alaska could use
these funds to the best advantage
by remaining in the territory and
attending the University of Al
aska.
Dr. Neil W. Hosley, University
of Alaska dean, pointed this out
recently. He stated tuition and
other costs are lower in man}'
cases at the University of Alaska
than at institutions in the United
States. Because the University of
Alaska is a smaller university
with a comparatively large staff
of highly qualified professors, stu
dents receive individual attention
they cannot get in larger schools.
Dr. Hosley said another reason
many non-Alaskans are coming to
the “Farthest-North” university
is that the board of regents auth
orized the registration of students
from Oregon, Washington, British
Columbia and Yukon Territory
on the same tuition-free basis as
for Alaskan students.
He added that enrollment of
students from high schools in the
States as fall semester freshmen
has broken all records.
“Short vacations during the
school year and the resultant ear
ly closing of the university give
University of Alaska students a
real advantage in obtaining Alas
kan jobs for the summer,” Dean
Hosley concluded.
* PLUTOCRATIC PUPS
A dog moved into a very exclu
sive neighborhood and struck up
a friendship with the pup next
door. The old-timer took the new
comer for a walk to “meet the
boys.” He introduced his new
friend with, “I want you to meet
Andre, Pierre, Henri, and Antoine
—friends this is my new neighbor
Fido.
“Fido?” sneered the aristocratic
canines, “How ordinary! We could
never associate with a low crea
ture named Fido.”
“Don’t get this lad wrong, boys,”
said the friend who had intro
duced him. “He spells his name
P H-I-D-E-A-U.”
