INDUSTRY LOOMS
The building of a breakwater shelter for small boats
in Resurrection Bay means a new fishing industry for the
Port of Seward, in the opinion of fishermen who started
mild curing here this summer. Protection from the South
winds is essential, and with that furnished this port will
be a home port for much craft now steering clear because
of uneasy anchorage.
It is comfortable to reflect that enough money has
already been appropriated by Congress for half of the
proposed rock dike that will extend out into the bay and
behind which fishing boats will ride easily at anchor.
Seward has been assured that a total of approximately
$160,000 will be spent on the work
Fishermen are looking eagerly forward to the con
struction of the breakwater as it means untold things
for Seward in becoming one of the great fish ports of
Alaska. They are hoping that the work will start early in
the spring because they are prepared to follow up with
money and plants to take care of the new angles of the
fish business in Western Alaska.
Seward is already equipped with one of the major
freezing plants of Northern waters. There are nearly
300 small boats, manned by a thousand men, operating
in these and Westward waters. A safe harbor for these
ouats will add greatly to the business of the local plant.
It has been demonstrated that mild curing of salmon of
fers big possibilities here. It is not too much to prophesy
that crab and cod will be sent out from this harbor. The
outlook is so good that one fisherman says he will be back
next summer to establish a plant of his own, and on the
assurance that the breakwater will be built, will have all
the capital he needs for his operations on a large scale.
Custom is what makes it so improper for a man to ap
pear in company with his suspenders showing and perfect
]y proper for his wife to go around with her garters vis
ible as the sun.
The richest mines in the world are those which carry
large bodies of low grade milling ores.
DuPonts have forbidden the use of mechanical cigar
lighters in their plants. Must be afraid one of them might
really light sometime.
Wars may disrupt the world and nations fall, but the
precious metal is always the same.
There are unlimited opportunities for plain and fan
cy liars this summer-with fishing and golf and politics.
Mines have been the foundation of fortunes.
An exchange declares that women’s bare knees are a
crime. And there are a good many accessories after the
fact.___
