EDITORIAL COMMENT.
______I
Considerable enthusiasm
prevails over town oil the co
operateve cannery question.
The New Native has heard
that the people of Klawock
are talking about taking out
stock in the proposed cannery.
This news has been received
with great favor here and
many of the people who have
expressed an opinion hope
that something will come of
this cooperative spirit. A man
from here who can make a
good talk should be sent to
Klawock to interest the peo
ple farther in our plans.
It would be a great achieve
ment for the natives of the
West Coast to unite on this
common industrial plant.
The New Native grew out
of this larger feeling of fell
owship among all natives.
One of the means by which
the people of Klawack and
Hydaburg would become ce
mented as friendly neighbo
rs is the common ownership
of a canning factory.
It is in the activities of life
that we develop the proper
morale. Talk alone is ineffe
ctive'. Association on the job
does more then anything
else to give one an interp
retative sympathy and cor
rect view of social justice.
