THE WORKERS ARE SATISFIED
In certain areas to the Westward, the fishing season
has been fairly remunerative, but in others, not so good, j
But, reports an arrival on the mail steamer Starr,
whether the working season has been good or bad, the
canneries are standing back of the deserving inhabi
tants, as they have always done, extending almost un
limited credit to those who may be in need during the
coming winter and in keeping wages at the past high
Alaskans are slowly beginning to realize that con
trarv to propaganda broadcast for years, the big can
nery interests in the Territory are not such villains as
they have been painted but 100 per cent humanitarians
insofar as their employees are concerned; they purchase
everything possible in Alaska and employ everyone in
their immediate area who wants work during the season
of operation and pay top-notch wages.
If the season is a failure they pocket their losses
without a murmur—like the good sports they are. If
the season is profitable, more money is expended in im
provements as well as increased taxes paid to the Ter
ritory.
It’s as plain as the paper on the wall; without these
big interests in the Territory, Alaska would be in a
H-of a shape, financially and economically.
Alaska needs many more big interests which meas
ure up to the standard of the Alaska fish canning inter
ests.
Another well known railroad executive of the Unit-1
ed States, T. W. Evans, vice president of the New York
Central-Chicago Railway, was a visitor in Seward Fri
day. He thinks Alaska is a most interesting country |
and returns home, with Mrs. Evans and son Wallace, |
firmly convinced that Alaskans are the most hospitable
people on earth. Yes, he played golf while here.
M. Francis of Paris has recovered his stomach, al
though it will never be of any practical use to him. The
organ was removed during an operation, after which it
disappeared. He employed detectives to find it, which
they did in the laboratory of a local physician, who had
taken it for professional study.
Another year is passing without a game warden be
ing appointed and stationed in Seward. Warden George
Nelson goes to Cordova; there is one at Kodiak, an
other at Anchorage and one on half-part time, or some
thing like that down on the Kenai. We’re slightly
peeved, Alaska Game Commission; watch our smoke!
There were so many vessels in port Friday that
there actually was a congestion of traffic, especially
around the government dock. Three steamers had to
pull out to make way for incoming ships.
Just a few more months and then the popular indoor
sport of filing for the 1932 Territorial Legislative race
starts. The political pot has begun to brew.
King Cove has been issuing an evening radio bul
letin entitled, “King Cove Daily in Southeast Odor.”
Do they can whales over there?
If the home folks don’t boost the home city, nobody
else will do it for them.
It wiill soon be that time of the year when slickers
will be popular for evening w’ear.
