Salmon Advt. Is
Help to Tourist
Travel Alaska
SEATTLE, June 12—That the
United States is now definitely
emerging from the depression &
leaving hard times behind is the
belief of L. W. Baker, Traffic
Manager of the Alaska Steam
ship Company.
Baker bases this belief on the
fact that people are now spend
ing a great deal more for the ex
tras of life than was the case two
and three years ago.
''More money is being spent
for amusements and for travel to
day than has been spent on these
things for a number of years.
People who either have not had
the money for the luxuries of
life, or have been afraid to spend
money on things not absolutely
necessary seem to have more
money now and to feel a greater
confidence in spending it for the
things that make life more pleas
ant,” Baker said.
“This is a common phenomona
when better times come back.
People find their amusements
within the home during hard
times, but as money becomes
freer, they spend more on out
side amusements, and on travell
ing for pleasure. This tendency
first began to show last season in
the tourist travel to Alaska,when
this travel reached its greatest
height since 1929. Advance book
ings for this tourist season are
the largest in our history. More
people will see Alaska and the
scenic beauties of the Inland Pas
sage this year than ever before.
More people will carry home with
them memories of Alaskan nat
ural beauty, and the Territory's
interesting and unique industries
—salmon fishing and canning,min
ing, and logging than any other
year in Alaska’s history.
“Alaska, too, will benefit from
the money spent by these tourists
for lodging, food, souvenirs, and
other pleasures in the Territory.
Many sections of the United Sta
tes annually spend large amounts
of money to attract “Tourist
crop." Alaskans realize the val
ue of the tourist to the country,
and do everything they can to
make visitors happy and comfort
able.
“The greatly increased interest
of American tourists in Alaska
can be attributed to a number of
factors,” Baker continued. “Un
settled political conditions in Eu
rope have undoubtedly helped.
More advertising of Alaska by
steamship lines, and railroads
have accounted for some of the
pick up. Advertising by the
Canned Salmon Industry in week
ly and monthly magazines in the
States, has also done a good deal
to publicize the romance of Al
aska among the members of the
family who frequently are the
most influential in making up
the travel itinerary, the house
wives."

Alaska’s Salmon Rising
in U. S. Favor as
Delicious, Nourishing Food
Industry’s advertising in States gets more
housewives to buy Canned Salmon at fair prices per
can. This helps almost every family in Territory
ASKA knows Canned Salmon as
a food that’s good to eat — and
healthful; but the Territory can
consume only a fraction of our an
nual salmon catch.
Only through building up the out
side market—in the U.S.—can Alas
ka’s Number One Industry forge
ahead of competition from other
parts of the world—keep on pay
ing its large share of taxes here—
and offer stable employment to
Alaskan workers.
Alaska people know the Industry
is conducting a great advertising
campaign in the U. S. As a result
of this advertising — now in full
swing—Canned Salmon is growing
in favor among U. S. families.
U. S. women who have learned
the nutritious, life-sustaining values
of Canned • Salmon are serving it
often. And these American house
wives are now buying more of
Alaska’s food-delicacy from the sea.
You and your family share, di
rectly or indirectly, in the benefits
brought by this stability in the
Canned Salmon Industry.
More demand tor Canned Salmon
means more stable employment —
more money spent tor equipment
and services here in the Territory.
You can help the good work by
serving Canned Salmon often in
your own home.
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:
Ja 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.
2 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.
g 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.
