i An Open Letter From
! IV. R. Wassenkari
I Dear Editor:
Southeastern Alaska Seiners
settled for the following fish
prices: pioks 20; cohoes 42; reds
53; chums 22; springs 1.76. In
addition 1 and a half cents for
delivery to canneries and 800
fish per man in event limits are
established.
Cordova district; kings, reds
! and cohoes, escalator increase of
10 per cent over last year. On
pinks and chums 13 and a half
16 and a half respectively, which
. is higher than the 10 per cent
i granted on other species.
Cook Inlet district: 20 to 33
and a third Der cent over last
year.
Independent seine caught
pinks 10c, and 1-3 less for com- <
pany gear. i
Most of the districts in Alaska J
are still under valid war duration
agreements and could not be j
negotiated but were granted the j
10 per cent increase over last j
year based on the increase of |
cost of living.
I Only other noticeable gain was j
I won by the Bristol bay resident ^
cannery workers IFAWa local j
No. 46.
They have a thorough agree
ment signed with the ASI with
the following pay scale: Classifi
cation A hourly pay $1 35, over
time $148, penalty rate $1.60.
Classification B $1.21 & $1 50.
The above scale on a basis of
board and room furnished. When
not furnished workers are to re
ceive an allowance of $3 per day.
Free transportation to cannery
and back to place of embark
ation
This is the first step by IFAWA
in tne elimination of inequalities
between resident and non-resid
ent cannery workers all over
Alaska. It is the aim of IFAWA
to get the resident workers on
equal basic pay with non-iesid
ent cannery workers.
Next year all the agreements
of ah the unions involved in the
salmon industries will be negoti
atab'e, therefore all unions in- j
volved should be in a positior
to participate in the Joint Strat
egy committee of the Alaska
Fisheries Unions where all the
demands of all the unions will be
co-ordinated to conform with
1 one another so that a uniform
wage structure can be formulated
to govern all phases of the Alaska
Canned Salmon Industries.
