t ON THE BALLOT in the Oct. 12th election there will be a referendum on “the practice of fishing by means of traps should
: be continued or . . . should he abolished.” To abolish traps, we believe, would amount to confiscation and would permanently
injure the Territory of Alaska.
f
DOES IT REALLY MAKE
; SENSE?
Alaska needs money to develop the Ter
ritory’s many resources. Over the years,
$100,000,000 has been invested in sab
mon fishing operations.'
Now, some people are urging you to
"cripple or completely strangle that in
dustry by destroying salmon traps*
which provide about 50 per cent of all
raw salmon.
>■
Does it make sense?
If Alaska is to grow, prosper and
f attract new industry, the investments
now here must be given a reasonable
| guarantee that they will not be destroyed
|t by confiscation. ,
VOTE TO
CONTINUE TRAPS!
Here's why YOU Should
VOTE to CONTINUE
TRAPS:
1. Trap* mean jobs—not just for 45 days but for
tlx to nine months for approximately 4,000
people, mostly Alaskans.
2. Traps are the best means of conserving
Alaska’s salmon.
3. Traps pay taxes. Without them the Territory
would have to levy additional taxes on du
other Alaska businesses and individuals.
4. Traps, together with mobile gear, allow oaa
neries to operato efficiently. Without traps,
at least 25 large canneries would close down
because they would be stripped of their de
pendable supply of salmon—thousands of men
would lose their jobs._jv ^ . u: J
5. Traps are vital to Alaska’s economy. Confiscate
them and you undermine the Territory’s sta
bility. An unstable region cannot develop a
diversified economy.
6. Traps so stabilize the entire salmon industry
that they make it possible for packers to pay
fishermen maximum prices. Confiscate traps
and you cut dowti these earnings. Nobody
gains—everyone loses.
7. Traps are vital in maintaining U. S. world
leadership in the canned salmon industry. Con
fiscate them and you so weaken America’s posi
tion that it will be possible for Russia, utilizing
U.S. built floating canneries, to seize this prize
in world trade. The Japanese demonstrated,
in 1937, by their operations in Bristol Bay,
that such floating canneries constitute a real
threat.
8. Traps represent large investments in venture
capital. Confiscate them and you discourage
other industries from investing in Alaska’s
future.
9. Traps provide healthy competition. Confiscate
them and you establish a gear monopoly in the
catching of salmon.
10. Traps, seines and gill nets—ALL THREE
TYPES OF GEAR ARE ESSENTIAL to
maintain Alaska’s canned salmon pack. Vary
ing conditions in the Alaska fishing grounds
make it economically feasible to fish certain
areas to full advantage only by means of traps.
