Business Outlook
For Alaska Good
Says Seattle Man
(Special Nugget Service)
SEATTLE. July — The Alaskan
business outlook for the next 12
months is an excellent one, ac
cording to Fowler W. Martin, vice
president of the Pacific National
Bank of Seattle, who has just re
turned from a five weeks’ tour
and survey of business conditions
in the Territory.
“Mining activity of all kinds is
greater than it has ever been”,
Martin declared. “The fisheries
anticipate a good year even
though a record breaker like last
year is not expected. Tourist trav
el is expected to surpass even
last year, and this will bring a
large amount of business to mer
chants in Alaska”.
The banking executive pointed
out that the record breaking sal
mon pack last summer resulted
in more money in circulation in
the sea coast towns of the Ter
ritory, with considerable bene
fits to the merchants. Not only
was their trade increased, but
cash trading improved and the
body of Alaska merchants arc
believed to be in better financial
condition now than for some time
past.
“With the mining industry in
for a boom this summer, with a
normal production year at stabil
' ized prices in sight for the salmon
packing industry, with the mer
chants in better condition than
they have been for several years,
and a bumper crop of tourists ex
pected during the summer season.
I blieve a prediction of a good
year for Alaska is amply justified’’
j Martin said in discussing his busi
ness findings.
“Every visit to the Territory
i increases the pleasure derived
from the beauty of its scenery”,
he continued. “This was my four
th trip to Alaska, and I believe I
saw more of it this time than ev
