PROPOSALS TO EE MADE AT
KODIAK FISHERY HEARING
Following is a list of the pro
posals which the Fish and Wild
life Service will announce at
Kodiak, with brief statements
regarding the reasons:
1. Open season, Karluk dis
trict, to be from June 16 to July
15.
2. Open season, Mainland and
general districts, to be from
June 16 to July 15; from July 31
to August 13: and from Sep
tember 10 to September 30.
3. Open seasons, Afognak dis
trict to be from July 10 to July
15; from July 31 to August 13;
and from September 10 to Sep
tember 30.
4. The Red River district to
remain completely closed, it be
ing the intent of the Service to
suspend all fishing for one red
salmon cycle (5 years), the plan
to be altered only if unexpected
rehabilitation of the respective
runs occurs.
5. Alitak district to remain
completely closed except for the
eastern portion of Olga Bay
which will be opened in such a
manner and at such time to per
mit the taking of surplus chum
salmon which are believed to
occur in that area. It is the in
tent of the Service to continue
this program in the Alitak dis
trict for at least five years unless
an unforeseen rehabilitation of
the red runs occur in the dis
trict.
6. Drift gill net fishing to be
prohibited in all of the Kodiak
area.
For those who do not under
stand the reasons for these pro
posals. the following brief state
ments are made. In all areas the
early runs of red salmon have
declined continuously for sev
eral years, and only by a de
layed opening can we be assured
of anything like adequate early
seeding. This can be borne out
by the failure to obtain the regu
latory spring escapement at Kar
luk and Red River, despite early
closures in each district.
The closing of Red River ap
pears to be an unwanted neces
sity. Despite the fact that the
district was closed for most of
the 1951 season, the Red River
escapement will be not much
more than 60,000, or 90,000 short
of the regulatory requirement,
which in itself is less than the
system should receive to assure
the future of the fishery.
Alitak for many years has
been declining in production,
and the 1951 total run has prov
en to be less than 70 percent of
the average for the years 1944
1950 which were extremely poor.
The over-all decline from 1940
to 1951 has been greater than
70 percent, and the escapements
in 1947 were the lowest ever re
corded for that district although
escapements in 1948, 1949, and
1950 fell even lower. Since the
runs of the next several years
will be produced by these ex
tremely poor escapements they
can be expected to be the lowest
ever recorded; it is believed by
the Service that total run in
1952 (and following years) will
not even approximate essential
escapements.
The prohibition of drift gill
nets is proposed only to prevent
the expansion of fishing effort
in an area which already is suf
fering from over-exploitation; a
new fishery connot be permitted
in an area which for several
years has shown an alarming de
crease in abundance of fish.
The eastern portion of 01?a
Bay has built a population of
chum salmon which con provide
considerable numbers of these
fish for commercial purposes
without endangering the stocks,
and it is the proposal of the
Service that these surplus fish
be utilized.

“Honestly, now
aren’t gasoline
prices too high?"
Everyone who can remember what things used
to cost only ten or twenty years ago may well think
of those times as “the good old days.” Recalling them,
and the extreme bargains offered during the depres
sion, people have asked Standard such questions as
“Honestly, now—aren't gasoline prices too high?”
! In answer to a question like that, Standard asks
| you to consider the broad situation. All prices
should be kept as low as possible. But in judging
* what’s “too high,” let’s see what’s happened:
1926 1951
1926 1951
Price comparisons—1926 and 1951
Let’s look back on those “good old days’’—to
1926, a fairly normal year. Since then, most prices
have varied greatly. By 1951, farm products cost
over twice as much as in 1926, groceries and cloth
ing about two-thirds more. But in 1951, gasoline
costs almost as little as it did in 1926—actually up
less than 4^, except for taxes, now 6p to 8p a gal
lon in the West. Most people’s income has gone up
enough in those years so that gasoline takes a far
smaller share of their budget. So gasoline today—
far from being “too high”—is an exceptionally
good buy. See how and why this has come about—
HOW have gas prices been kept from getting
“too high”? Partly through improvement in refin
ing methods, developed by big companies’ research.
We’ve learned to get more gas out of every barrel
of crude. (And it’s better gas; 2 gallons now do
work that took 3 only 25 years ago.)
WHY have gas prices been kept from getting
“too high”? Because there’s intense competition.
To stay in business, all oil companies are always
looking for ways to cut costs of producing, trans
porting, refining, and marketing. We keep finding
them, passing benefits on to you.
I*cL Like to Know . . . Many people write to Standard asking
pertinent questions about the Company. We answer all letters individually,
but some points seem of general interest. We take this way of discussing
them for everyone. If you have a question, we urge you to write in care of:
