THAT BRISTOL BAY MEMORIAL
Representative Charles Murray of the Third Division,
has offered a memorial in the Alaska Legislature recommend
ing to the federal authorities that the order closing Bristol
Bay salmon fishing be modified to allow all fishermen resi
dents of the area the last two years be permitted to fish.
The memorial is good. Beyond question the people act
ually residents of the Bristol Bay area should be permitted to
fish and canneries to pack such fish as they take.
The salmon will be in no danger of extermination if the
fishing be confined to the resident fishermen. The escape
ment will be sufficient not only for the keeping up of the
normal supply but' under that plan, for it to increase. The
over-taking of fish which may threaten the permanent supply
comes from the hordes of fishermen annually imported from
the States.
The resident fishermen of Alaska have no means of earn
ing a livelihood excepting in fishing. The bread and butter
should not be taken out of their mouths or out of the mouths
of their families.
AlasKa neeas more resident nsnermen and more iamn
ies. The way to get more families—to establish more homes
—is to provide a means for those having the fortitude and a
desire to live in the country to earn their living in it.
The Murray resolution might go a step further and pro
vide any fisherman living in the country a year—or even
domiciled or having his family in the Bristol Bay area before
the first of this year, be given the fishing privelege for the
proposed closed area. In fact, any bona fide resident of the
territory—especially those with families—could be extended
privilege with safety. It is easy enough to distinguish be
tween the cheechaca fishermen who come into Alaska by the
wholesale by ship from Seattle or San Francisco in the spring
and those who live in the territory.
The federal authorities certainly will do the discreet
thing. Bristol Bay’s permanent salmon supply will not be
menaced by extending the fishing rights to the resident fish
ermen at all times. The sooner the fact is recognized the
better—and in extending that recognition, may the authori
ties make every preparation to crack down good and hard
on the outside fishermen who would evade the rulings.—The
Anchorage Daily Times.
Huey Long, after all. may not carry out his plan for
political appointment of teachers in Louisiana, having a
sense of forgiveness of those who taught him.

DID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK?
By Edson R. Waite, Shawnee, Oklahoma
That newspaper advertising will impress a business on
the buyer’s mind.
The only way a near-dead business can be revived or a
live business kept alive is by newspaper advertising.
In these days and times every business concern is facing
the keenest sort of competition and the only business con
cerns that will get ahead in the race for business are those
that bring to their help the mighty power of advertising.
The infallible proof of good merchandise or service is
the demand.
There is absolutely no guess work about advertised goods
and service
The constitnt demand for advertised goods and service
shows they have stood the test
Newspaper advertising gives plain, every-day facts and
that is what the people want..
Nothing approaches newspaper advertising in display,
efficiency and real order-getting appeal.
Of Importance
To Miners And
Prospectors
Of importance to the miners and
prospectors of the Territory is one
of the provisions of the act recently
passed and approved providing that
the Reconstruction Finance Corpor
ation may loan money for the dev
elopment of gold, silver or tin pros
pects. Unlike other loans to indus
try by the RFC, it is not necessary
that these loans be made upon
“adequate" security. The particul
ar paragraph of this act reads as
follows: "The Reconstruction Fin
ance Corporation is authorized and
empowered to make loans upon suf
ficient security to recognize and es
tablish corporations, individuals, and
partnerships engaged in the busi
ness of mining, milling, or smelting
ores. The Reconstruction Finance
Corporation is authorized and em
powered also to make loans to cor
porations, individuals and partner
ships engaged in the development
of a quartz ledge, or vein, or other
ore body, or placer deposit, con
taining gold, silver or tin or gold
and silver, when, in the opinion of
the Reconstruction Finance Corpor
ation, there is sufficient reason to
believe that, through the use of
such loan in the development of a
lode, ledge, or vein, or mineral de
posit, or placer gravel deposit there
will be developed a sufficient quan
tity of ore, or placer deposits, of a
sufficient value to pay a profit upon
mining operations: Provided, that
not to exceed $20,000 shall be loan
ed to any corporation, individual
or partnership, for such develop
ment purposes: Provided further,
That there shall not be allocated or
made available for such develop
ment loans a sum in excess of $10,
000,000.
