JAPAN CONTROLS COD
FISH MARKET OWINC
TO LOIAI FISH TARIFF
i The extreme difficulty of mar
; keting Alaska cod Ash at a profit
i is painfully apparent when those
! engaged in codfishing in Western
i Alaska along the Aleutian islands
I complain that they are unable to
j sell their fish at a profit.
This unique situation is attrib
j uted to the low tariff on the fish
i and the fact that Japan floods the
Pacific coast markets at selling
prices that Alaska fishermen can
not compete with.
Tense with apprehension of in
creased taxation, the Ketchikan
Chamber of Commerce has passed
resolutions and forwarded them to
officials in Washington, protesting
against a sales tax or any addi
tional burden on canned salmon.
Ketchikan is the greatest sal
man canning district in the world.
One-half million cases are canned i
in the city, or within two miles of
it, every year. Another million or
more cases are canned within a
radius of 50 miles.
The salmon canning industry in
Alaska represents an investment of
approximately $75,000,000 with an
annual production of about $30,
000,000.
Ketchikan, however, does favor
a duty upon the importation of
pulp and newsprint “at such a
rate as will insure the early utiliz
ation of Alaska forests for the
manufacture of paper and news
print.
A movie picture company, in
which will be Johnny Weissmuller,
swimming champion, will leave for
Alaska in July or August to take
pictures for a feature talkie.
It was reported Thursday that
the ice in the Fairbanks slough;
went out shortly after 2 o’clock in j
the afternoon. The Tanana River j
ice generally goes out within 10 j
days after the slough.

BETTER TIMES ARE COMING
Don’t be Discouraged!
Don’t lose the will to win-don’t join the pessimists who
see naught but disaster ahead—
During a previous depression, the government had to is-*
sue paper “Clearing House Certificates” as a substitute for
money. Conditions were just as bad, only we have forgotten.
Prosperity has always followed bad times—this is one of the
laws of business cycles.
Now is the time to substitute the word “Reconstruction” for
“depression.”
Don’t be discouraged. Lend a hand to reestablish confidence.
America will see this through and emerge victorious.
Better times are coming!
