“Next tT the Largest Store in Town”
. . . and about the longest
I Cordova businessmen and
| chamber of commerce members
I are looking with satisfaction on
the record of the halibut deliver
ies in the community, the Cor
dova Times reports in a recent
issue.
“For 7 or 8 yeais,” the Times
said, “the chamber sought to
obtain a cold storage operation.
Those who were lukewarm to the
idea held that the price diiferen
tial over that paid in southern
por s would be unattractive to
halibuters and they would prefer
to make the long run to Prince
Rupert, B. C, or Seattle, even
at a great additional expense ’
The Times article continued:
“A token cold storage opera
j tion here last year and operations
■ thus far this year, although
somewhat on an experimental
^ basis, has proven without a
i doubt the anti cold storage strat
egists were just about 100 per
cent wrong.
“The halibuters apparently
look with considerable favor
upon Cordova as a port in which
to sell their fish. They eome in
with a load, take a day or two
to rest up and purchase fresh
supplies and are off again foi the
nearby banks. The short haul
and the convenience of being
near a supply point seemingly
suits their ticket just about
right — especially among the
smaller boats.
“Figures to the middle of June
[ show that more than 400,000
; pounds of halibut have been
delivered to two local cold stor
age plants—Joe Blestrieii Cor
dova Fish and Cold Storage Co.,
and the H. M Parks Co
“One manager, in answer to a
query, expre.-sed enthusiasm for
cold storage tere. He said if ade
quate shipping facilities are
maintained between Cordova
and the States so the holding
rooms can be kept reasonably
clear there should be a continu
ing development of the indu-try
With enlarged plarns he envis
ioned Cordova becoming the
equal of any port in Alaska
“Nineteen boats have been
delivering to the two Cordova
plants, 3 others have been li
censed for halibut fishing, and
3 have been fishing the nearby
banks for the Valdez cold storage
concern.
Cold storage operators say j
they receive wires and other com-1
munications almost daily from
halibut boats all along the coast,
inquiring whether Cordova cold
stoiage will accept t.beir catche3.
“Many of them have express
ed a desire to base hei'e and
bring their families,” the Cor
dova Times »aid in conclusion.
