The human element in salmon
canning is becoming more effi
cient, according to findings at
the National Can nor s’ Association
fifth annual Canned Salmon Cut
ting Demonstration held at Sea

of the fish canned is largely de
pended upon natural conditions,
the final pack quality is equally
dependent upon the "workmanship
and care in, the canning operations
the judges pointed out.
More than 100 cans of salmon
representing all varieties and all
American packing districts were
examined and judged at the cut
ting which was attended by over
500 cannery superintendents and
other key employees in the pro
duction division of salmon indust
ry.
Following the cutting and judg
ing, reports were made at an af
ternoon meeting on the qualliity
and workmanship of the 1937
pack, by varieites. Judges on Al

Mr. Harvey discussed revised
plans for federation inspection of
the pack and >also told of his ob
servations in Alaska last season.
He noted improvement in sanita
tion methods and use of hypo
chlorites, and in the emphasis on
getting fish to the cannery in the
shortest lapse of time.
Mr. Dybwad spoke on the use
and value of hypochlorites in the
canneries and fish boats.
According to the National Can
ners’ Association the purpose of
this cutting is to permit the can
nery men to observe for them
selves the quality and results of
thc-ir season’s work. This event
is considered to have a strong
beneficial effect in improving the
quality and workmanship of the
annual pack.

with a banquet at which Ament

M. Brennan, general manager of
