OFFICIAL BULLETIN TO ALASKA VOTERS
Alaska's Salmon Canning
I ndustry frankly answers
your questions about
traps and the future of
our canneries
Whether or not Alaska’s salmon canning industry can continue
to operate all its present canneries if salmon traps are abolished
by your vote on October 12th, is a serious question.
Salmon canning is our business and you may be sure tKat we
will not close any canneries that can be operated profitably.
But it is only fair to tell you that we now get 50% of all the
salmon we process from trap fishermen. Abolish traps and you
surely deal our raw supply sources a heavy blow. While other
sources of supply might be found, the immediate effect would be
a shortage of fish for cann r es.
Our analysis today indicates that
approximately 25 large canneries
would have to shut down if traps
are abolished
To cannery workers, fishermen, Alaska in general and our in^
dustry, this could create an economic crisis. We of the industry
surely do not want that. We doubt if anybody who works in the
industry^wants it. But, we repeat, today we know of no way to
avoid closing canneries if traps are abolished.
It’s your vote. Vote as you think best, of course! But let
there be no guess work about the effect of abolishing traps. Such
action would close canneries and cripple the entire salmon industry
of Alaska!
