Queer Names
“Odd names your towns have”,
commented the Englishman—
■ “Wehawken, Hoboken, Pough
i keepsie, Oshkosh.”
“I suppose they do sound
queer to English ears”, the Am
erican agreed thoughtfully. "Do
you live in London all the
time?”
“No, indeed,” said the unsus
pecting Briton. “1 spend part of
my time in Chipping Norton and
divide the rest between Biggles
wade and Leighton Buzzard.”—

Alaska product in fight
to hold American markets
Salmon industry facing competi
tion in U. S. from other kinds of fish
canned outside of Territory. High
quality of Alaska Canned Salmon
is vital weapon in holding markets
IN the canned fish market of the
United States Alaska salmon meets
many competitors.
Canned California sardines often
retail in America as low as 5^ for
a pound can.
Canning of tuna, fished off the
coast of Mexico and Central Amer
ica, is a large industry.
Mackerel is now canned in an
nually increasing quantities in Cali
fornia. Canned mackerel is also
cheaper in the U. S. than Canned
Salmon.
Alaska’s Salmon industry has been
quick to protect the Territory’s chief
product against this competition. In
a smashing campaign of over 84 mil
lion magazine messages to American
housewives this year,the high quality
of Alaska salmon is being advertised.
The Industry is selling America on
the quality of Alaska’s Canned Sal
mon because on price alone salmon can't
compete in America with other canned
Jish.
Alaska’s Canned Salmon must
reach American housewives at peak
quality. The quality of Canned
Salmon is governed largely by the
lapse of time between ocean and
container. The Industry makes a
strenuous effort to see that nothing
but fresh fish — fish in finest condition
— are canned.
This policy helps to protect em
ployment and prosperity in the
Territory.
What Canned Salmon
advertising will
accomplish for Alaska
Canned Salmon atlvertising to V. S. women is
paid for entirely by the Canned Salmon Indus
try. Its purposes include the following:
]t It will seek to safeguard this Alaska industry
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.
3. It will, if successful, help make it possible
for the Industry to continue its support of
the Territorial government through tax pay
ments. The Canned Salmon Industry in 1933
(last year for which records arc complete)
paid 77% of all taxes collected by the Terri
torial government.
4, It will creute interest in Alaska and its re
sources and help to bring more people to the
Territory.
5, In will guard the future of the Industry —
protect the future of the thousands of Alaska
people who derive ineonie directly and indi
rectly from the canning of Alaska salmon.
()t Alaskans cau help by serving Canned Salmon
regularly in their own homes.

Coast Guard Has
Defeated System
Of Rum-running
(Continued From Page One)
their cargo of contraband liq
uor.
Rum running became so great
along the coast that congress vot
ed the ccast guard more money
for cutters. The new boats could
move more swiftly than the rum
schooners they were trailing, so
there finally came a month in
1929 when the schooners had
practically disappeared.
New Fleet Elusive
But in their stead came a new
hovering fleet that was more dif
ficult to defeat. Bootleggers had
bought low-lying engined boats
which were difficult to see and
catch. Their numbers rose again
until March, 1933, the month of
| the bank holiday, when the rum
fleet dropped again. Perhaps, says
the coast guard, there was less
money for liquor.
Then came repeal. The fleet
fell off farther. But then the pro
| prietors thought of a new cargo.
. For the most part, the runners
; had carried Scotch whiskey dur
; ing prohibition. Now they turned
! to 190 proof alcohol.
By August, 1934, the coast
guard was again trailing and
watching night and day Secre
tary Morgenthau, of the treasury
department under whose direc
tion the coast guard works, de
cided to wipe out Rum row. He
called a conference of all his law
enforcement units, and out of it
worked a plan to co-ordinate
coast guard, customs agents and
; the alcohol tax unit.
A small land-sea army of de
tectives was pitted against the
alcohol runners. Coast guard trail
ed the boats ofT-shore and patrol
led the favorite dumping spots.
The past few peaceful weeks
seem to say that Rum row at last
admits defeat.
