Your Part
in Keeping Canned Salmon
Ahead of Competition
QUESTION: How can Alaska people share the responsibility
with the Salmon Industry in keepittg Camted Salmon ahead of
competition in U. S. markets ?
ANSWER: Although the Industry’s advertising can influence Amer
ican housewives to try Canned Salmon, it can’t make them repeat
unless they're satisfied with its goodness.
Sardines, tuna, mackerel caught and packed outside the Territory
are cheaper foods. On price alone, Canned Salmon can’t compete in
America with other canned fish.
Thus, producing fine quality Canned Salmon is this Industry’s first
responsibility—in which Alaska people have a real share. Canned
Salmon from Alaska must be just as fine as the advertising says it is!
This is a vital requirement that everybody in the Territory should
remember—especially now, at the start of the salmon run.
Salmon canned while fresh makes the best pack. The fish must be
moved swiftly from the water to the cans. And special care must be
given to the in-between steps.
For only in this way can the Salmon Industry assure U.S. women
that the Canned Salmon they get conforms to the highest standards
of purity, freshness, nutritive value.
Only in this way—with advertising support — can the Salmon In
dustry achieve its aim. To keep and expand its hold in American
markets ... to help bring more money, better times to Alaska ...
and do its part in protecting the future economic security of people
in the Territory.

The Washington
News-Letter
One thing must be admitted re
garding the discussion as to wnat,
if anything, should be done about
recasting the Supreme Court:
everybody is having his say, rang
ing from experts on both sides,
down to thuse who do not have a
very clear idea what it is ail
about. All of which reminds
one of the old colored man who,
when asked whether the frog was
an amphibious animal, replied:
‘Deed he is, Mr. Smith, awful am
phibious.
The situation has not progress
ed beyond the point of general
discussion, airing of views and
offering suggestions. The Presi
dent’s stand is well known. Boil
ed down to few words it Is. More
justices, and do it now. A more
moderate course, tending in the
same direction, is put forward by
those who hold that, although
changes may be desirable, consti
tutional amendment is what is re
quired. The latest plan to be
put foward is an eighteen year
term of service, treminated in any
event when the age of 70 years is
reached.
Mr. Justice McReynolds, whe
ther speaking for himself or for
the entire court is not known,
has broken the silence that the
court has maintained heretofore
regarding its own destiny and
functions. His attitude perhaps
is included in the statement that
the Supreme Court is the balance
wheel of the national timepiece,
and that it is well to be reason
ably sure of consequences before
adopting any radical change, in
courts or in anything else.
Finally there are the extreme
views on both sides. Upon the
I
I one hand, it is fundamentally
wrong to leave the affairs of the
jland in the hands of a group of
old men in their dotage: or if that
I statement does not fit in with
lone’s ideas, there is the assurance
that it is had business to substi
tute exuberance for wisdom. In
any event, a good fight is on, and
! those who like excitement are
getting plenty of it.
High above the noise of battle
comes a buglp blast from the
Chairman of the Board of Gover
nors of the Federal Reserve Sys
tem, who is quoted as saying that
what the country needs is higher
taxes and more of them. Mem
bers of Congress who have spok
en on the subject seem to think
that a tax increase is something
about which it is well to go slow
ly and do some careful thinking
in advance. The court issue will
be forgotten after a little, regard
less of what may be done about
it, but a tax boost sticks a long
while in the public mind. It is ^
well that Congress do some think j
ing in advance and thereby make!
it unnecessary for the taxpayer
to have the last, best and after
all, the most potent think.

Billy Lewis and
His Pet Pigeon
"Goofy-Tops
What boy, who does not like
a pigeon as a pet. Billy Lewis
is training “Goofy” to be a radi
ator cap on his automobile. The
follow.ng story is reprinted from
a Seattle paper, name not known
and is as follows:
If you see a streamlined auto
mobile traveling through the
streets of Seattle with a stream
lined pigeon perched on the rad
iator cap—that’s Goofy. And the
shiny-eyed boy watching the
pigeon will be Billy Lewis.
Two months ago Goofy was just
another pigeon, but today he’s
well on the way toward becom- j
ing a radiator cap decoration.
Goofy's in training and his 8
year-old master, Billy Lewis, says
he trains well. Billy doesn’t
care whether Goofy turns into a
radiator cap, particularly, but the
pet pigeon dotes on sitting on
automobile hoods.
That’s the way Billy and Goofy
first met. Goofy was perched on
the ho d of the automobile that
Billy’s father drives, when the
machine was parked one day at
the University of Washington.
Billy tried to shoo the pigeon
away. But the visitor stayed, sit
ting tight all the way from the
campus to 1220 38th Avenue N.,
where Billy lives.
“We invited him in, and he had
some grain." Billy says. "Then
we let him go. But he didn’t go.
He’d fly around, but he always
came back.”
Goof.v sticks by Billy’s side like
glu< . Me perches on his young
master's shoulder, arm or head.
Billy built a cozy little apple box
home for his pigeon pal, but Goo
|fy spurns it. He lives in the
eaves, the traditional billing and
cooing zone for all good pigeons.
