JOHNSON, SK2, Extension 706 IMMEDIATELY
to arrange for pack out dates and ship

Adak!s requests to MSTS for cargo space
are*based on known cargo available for
shipment. We can get the cargo space
if you let us know what you plan to do,
POV?s are shipped on a space available
basis, thus those attempting a last
minute shipment run the risk of having
their car left behind. If you are try
ing to sell your car you still should
book space with JOHNSON so in case it is
not sold it can be shipped. If it is
sold notify us and your shipment request
will be cancelled, as for HHG*s pack
out dates, there are still a few days
left in August, if you have orders and
have not seen JOHNSON do so IMMEDIATELY.
RETURN OF HIGH SEAS SAIMON TAGS
The tagging of salmon on the high
seas will be continued in 1961 on an
expanded scale, and the Fisheries
Research Institute^ Univ ersity of Wash
ington, College of Fisheries solicits;
the continued cooperation of all Adak
personnel in returning tags and recovery
information. High seas tag returns are
m very valuable in predicting salmon runs
and in our negotiations with the Japan
ese,
rosters are now on display at the
Post Officer which give details on the
return of tags and it should be noted
that while there will be no $25*00 re
ward for return of tags as last year,
the Fisherman^ Union in Seattle is
going to have a $300 cash drawing for
High Seas Salmon Tags turned in prior
to September 15th and you may win. No
record of a salmon being caught with a
tag during the last Salmon season on
Adak was made but anyone catching one
this year is requested to contact the
Editor of the ^dak SUN,
POSTERS ON RESTRICTED AREAS FOR FISHING

EDITORIAL June to- September: The Care
less Season.
One of the greatest pleasures any man
can hope to achieve is complete relax
ation—the total absence of nervous
strain and tension. We live in a world
of speed and noise and tumult. Comes
summer and we make plans to get away
from it all—but in too many cases the
planning generates new pressures and
drains on our energies.
On Adak we take to discovering the
backroads and places which have be en
blocked off for the winter. Unfcrtun —
ately 3 we sometimes tune our exhiliar—
ation with a oheaviar foot -on the accel
erator which leads to costly accidents
and untimely and unnecessary death.
The speed limits and traffic control
set on Adak is a result of many years
of study and experience. The conditions
of our roads (especially in the back
country) are of such that it is not
safe to exceed the speed limits UNDER
aNY DGNDITIONS. In fact the more pru
dent drivers who know will tell you it
pays to go under- the spped limits-it
is better for your cars conditioning &
your own protection as well,.
