Cold Storage Firm
Gets Big Order
(Continued from Page 1)
Burns and Wilmans operated The
Trading Bay Packers Cannery at
West Forland, and still own it.
In spite of the many obstacles
encountered, the company reported
a successful season. Many people,
including fishery men from other
parts of the Country, had believed
the cold storage plant could not be
placed in operating condition this
year.
Both compressors had to be re
built, pipe lines repaired, and many
thousands of feet of lumber and
other materials had to be used to
put the plant in shape. At present
a new cold room with a capacity
of a half million pounds is being
installed.
Eleven different boats brought
fish into the cold storage plant,
some of them from the Petersburg
fleet. Mr. Pege is confident that as
soon as the small boat harbor is
completed there will be more fish
ing in the Seward area.
Scrap fish, that salmon canner
ies can not use. can be processed
at the local plant. All four part
ners feel that there are enough
fish, and in sufficient variety, to
keep a fishing fleet operating out
of Seward the year around. These
fishermen would make their homes
in Seward and be an economic
asset to the community.
The people of Seward are urged
to visit the cold storage plant any
time. Mr. Pege said he wants to
remind the people that it is theirs,
and they have a right to look it
over.
He expressed the opinion that
the citizens of tiie town will be
grateful to Mr. Brownell for his ef
forts in securing the plant for
Seward.

Police Warn
Against Burglars
City police today issued a warn
ing to businessmen to bank their

At this season of the year many
transients are likely to turn up in

may attempt to get money the
easy way.
Night lights should be left burn
ing in places of business, and all
entrances should be securely
locked.

The State of Washington Went
Through The Fish Trap Fight In 1934
“The biggest catch of Sockeye Salmon in
Puget Sound Since 1917 occurred in 1946, and
the biggest catch of Pinks in Puget Sound
since 1917 occurred in 1947.
“We credit this to the elimination of Fish
Traps and the nefarious politics that control
them.
“The citizens of Alaska are to be congratu
lated on their move to abolish Fish Traps in
the Territory.”
