navy, SHI REPORT
FOR THETERRITORY
DROP OF $2,125,162 FROM LAST
YEAR; PRINCIPALLY CANNED
SALMON
l
!
Alaskan commodities shipped to
the States during July had a declared
value of $4,451,423, which was $2,
125,162 less than the value of the
same month’s export business last
year, according tq the monthly state
merit of commerce issued by J. C.
McBride, Collector of Customs. The j
loss was the result of a decline in j
the volume of canned salmon ship- j
ments, and of a drop in the value of
goods returned to the States.
Canned salmon shipped during the
month had a value of but $1,664,102
as compared to $3,402,181 for the
same month in 1926. Goods returned
to the Stlte3 were valued at $172,193,
as against $942,698 for July, 1926.
The difference represents oil drilling
machinary and equipment withdrawn
from the Cold Bay district last year
and taken back to the States by the j
Standard and Associated oil compa
nies.

i Witl\ the exception of these two
| items, the statement indicated gener
i ally healthy conditions existing in
i the several industries. There were
| material increases in the value of

! mon shipments were valued at $584,
154S as compared to $300,422 in July,

,1 jump for the month- Fur exports in- -
i ! creased from $109,268 for July, last
