Support Urged For
Fishing Industry
(/P)—A government price sup
port program for the U.S. fishing
industry was advocated today by
the CIO international fishermen’s
union.
The delegates in a resolution
yesterday urged all union mem
bers and affiliates to back up the
convention’s appeal for a price
support policy.
They acted after Paul Pinsky.
research director for tthe Cali
fornia state CIO council, told the
convention that the retail price of
fish dropped irine per cent last
year, compared wt.h ar. average
two* ’ per cent decline for other
foods;
Pinriky said the outlook for the
consumption fish this year was
not sd good. This, he added, was
because.of a decline in evport due
to dollar shortages in other coun
tries.
Robert Mayokok, Eskimo artist
who is wintering in Nome, has a
feature story in the February
issue of the Alaska Sportsman
which will be on sale in the local
news stands soon.
SHRIMP FISHING STARTS
i
Natives have been fishing
shrimp of good size on Bering
sea this week, as heretofore has
' been found when crabbing is
good.
A sample was shown to Robert
Baker of the Fish and Wildlife
Service, who is here from his
headquarters at Kotzebue. He has
made arrangements for Peter
Johnson to use the shrimp and
crab traps which were left here
last fall by the service for ex
perimental purposes.
Mr. Johnson will save samples
of his catch and make a record as
to where the shrimp were found.
To finance the start of the pro
ject, the Bering Sea Club and the
Nome Bottling Works made a con
tribution which might be a start
on a winter industry should it
show possibilities of development.
TONASKET, Wash., (/P)—Trip
let boys were born yesterday to
36-year-old Mrs. Roy Walker,
wife of an Okanogan machinist.
The couple have no other chil
dren.
The three youngsters weigh 5 j
pounds, 9 ounces; 4 pounds; and'
3 pounds, 12Vz ounces. They were
placed in an incubator at birth.

tion, he said. It connects with 300
private radio and telephone sta
tions already operating in Alaska.
The work also will tie in, he
said, with the $80,000,000 four
year program to rehabilitate the
Alaskan railroad; a big road ex
pansion program and the civil aer
onautics administration’s $8,000,
000-a-year plan for air port devel
opment at Anchorage and Fair
banks.
The general said skilled tech
nicians “resent living and work
ing” in buildings inadequate to
protect them in temperatures
sometimes 70 degrees below zero, j
Refusal of men to reenlist and
face hardships that could be aver
ted, the general added, creates an
expensive personnel turnover.
He called it wasteful to house
expensive equipment in inade
quate buildings.
He proposed expenditures for
residence and equipment building
at eight Alaskan stations as fol
lows: Northway $362,000; Cathe
dral Bluffs $337,800; Big Delta I
$308,500; Anchorage $721,300; ;
Fairbanks $794,500; Skagway$78,- |
300; Naknek $378,000; and Haines
$18,800.
The army engineers also asked
for $1,156,000 for the next big
step in plans to improve the har
bor lit Nome.
Col. W. E. Potter, acting assis- j
tant chief of engineers for civil I
works, said money is needed to
complete a sea wall and deepen
the channel of the "very impor
tant" port.
Col. Potter also recommended
that $750,000 be released for work
for providing a safer channel
through the winding Wrangell
.narrows.
"It may interest the committee
to know that this channel was
used during the war for safe
transit of ships to Alaska," he
said.
