Salmon Campaign
Promotes Alaska’s
Largest Industry
Seattle, Washington, May 4—
The danger to the Alaska salmon
industry and to Alaska itself from
foreign competition and from
cheap domestic varieties of fish
was pointed out recently by J.N.
Gilbert, vice-president of Alaska
Pacific Salmon Company.
“Alaska canners must compete
not only against the low prices of
Japanese and Russian salmon,
but against canned fish produced
from fish caught in the waters off
the southern coast of the United
States and for which the fisher
man received last year about V2C
per pound as compared with an
average price per pound for pink
salmon in Alaska over three
times as great,” Mr. Gilbert said.
“There is only one sound way of
meeting this outside competition
and protecting our home industry
and that is by extending our i
markets.
“It is this function, vital to the
very life of the industry and to
thousand of families in Alaska
whose livelihood depends on
wages from the salmon industry,
“Meal - balancing”
with Salmon
Good news for housewives! Nutritional
authorities find Canned Salmon one of our
richest sources of many vital food values
O OTHER food contains the same
variety of important nutrients
found in salmon, report food author
ities whose findings are featured in
current Canned Salmon advertising.
We need every day, these experts
say, the great food factor protein. It’s
protein that gives us staying power.
Rebuilds muscles and tissues. Salmon
is a principal source of a high grade
protein which man must eat regu
larly in order to live.
The calcium and phosphorus in
Canned Salmon help keep teeth and
bones sound, healthy. Salmon sup
plies energy and iodine, the goitre
preventive.
Add to all this Canned Salmon’s
content of the rare "sunshine” vita
min D and the''protective” vitamins
A and G!
Actually, Canned Salmon alone
contains so many of the food essentials
that when combined with even the
simplest other foods, it becomes the
nutritionally balanced meal author
ities urge everyone to eat regularly.
The Canned Salmon Industry is
publishing these facts in advertise
merits reaching millions of families
throughout the country.
Alaskans can help by serving
Canned Salmon in their own homes.
As millions begin to understand
the true healthfulness of salmon,
they will buy Alaska salmon more
often. And whether directly or in
directly, every Alaskan will benefit.
What Canned Salmon
advertising will
accomplish for Alaska
Canned Salmon advertising to U. S. women
is paid for entirely by the Canned Salmon In
dustry. Its purposes include the following:
I, It will seek to safeguard this Alaska Indus
try against the competition from other
food products in America.
2_ It will seek to stabilize America’s demand
for this Alaska product at fair prices — so
that good wages may be paid to Alaska
workers.
^ It will, if successful, help make it possible
for the Industry to continue its support of
the Territorial government through tax
payments. The Canned Salmon Industry
in 1933 (last year for which records are
complete) paid 77% of all taxes collected
by the Territorial government.
^ It will create interest in Alaska and its re
sources and help to bring more people to
the Territory.
It will guard the future of the Industry —
protect the future of the thousands of
Alaska people who derive income directly
and indirectly from the canning of Alaska
salmon.

wlvch the industry is undertak
ing at the present tine through
a continent-wide advt 1 tising pro
gram. The campaign, presenting
the high food values and many
uses for canned salmon to the
widest possible audience, tends to
steady prices, to prevent disaster
ous breaks, to stabilize the indus
'try through the Territory.
“The salmon industry in the
'Pacific Northwest givt-o employ-1
ment to from 25.000 to 30,000
people. The bulk of its earnings
goes into labor, supplies, trans
portation, and services on the
Pacific Coast. The industry is the (
(chief support of other Alaska in
dustries like logging, and mill op
orations, ship yard, coal mines,
etc.
“ From six to nine million dol
lars goes for wages alone. An
even larger amount goes for raw
fish, boats, gear, and other fish
1 ing expense. The salmon indus
try is Alaska’s heaviest tax-pay
er. Because it is subject to regu
I lations of the Bureau of Fisher
j ies. Food and Drug Administra
tion, and others, the expense of
doing business in Alaska is very
high. Safety for the industry &
for the wage-earners lies in build
ing a market for Alaska salmon
—a market which will grow so
consistently and steadily that the
industry can afford to maintain
its extensive operations through
the Territory. I believe that the
citizens of Alaska will realize
this fact and extend their full
cooperation to the industry which
provides the most important sin-.
gle source of revenue to the resi
dents of the Territory.”
