“The House That Quality Built” f
A REAL GOOD JOKE
A proponent of the trap sysU>
of Alaska says in his paper of recent
issue: “A good run of dogs salmon
will mean that between $30,000 and
$40,000 will be paid out in Peters
| burg to employees and to local fish
ermen, to say nothing of the case tax
which will revert to the city and the
increase sales of light power and
water from the municipally owned
utilities.”
Doggoned if the rain and salmon
didn’t fool'em. The fishermen have
worked these several years for the
pleasure of working, in many in
stances running bills with local busi
nets men just for the joy of putting
in eighteen and twenty ho^irs chas
ing salmon long since picked up by
the traps. We didn’t know that fish
ermen could make so darned much
money and spend it in building in
towns and communities. We tho’t
tin1 traps and canneries were built
iug tin the darned country. By heck,
wc. were so darned ignorant that we
did not know all this stuff about
resident fishermen building up Alas
ka. And to say the least, we began
to think Alaska was nothing hut a
place for Seattle to get its dividends
and Alaskans only here to take care
of the few buildings during the win
ter time. By Heck!
‘‘$30,000 and $40,000 will he spent
ir. Petersburg by fishermen and em
ployees” Read that line a couple of
times and then put that bunch of
gray matter working and multiply
| the spending power of adequate earn
ing power and see what it will de
velop in Alaska.
We assert that no Alaska paper
will he whining about mailorder
houses and will have enough to in
sure a profitable margin on the blue
side of Ills ledger, if seiners wer-'
given real earning power.
DISEASE OF POVERTY' PROVES'
LESS DEADLY
-o
Tuberculosis, which has been call- j
a “disease of poverty” is decreas
ing among American workers.
Statistics collected by the Metro
politan and published by them in the
March issue of the Monthly Labor
Review of the Department of Laboi,
shows:
The tubercular death rate among
industrial workers is higher for the
country as a whole than among the
rural population.
However, the decrease has been
more marked in the cities than >n
the country districts. For example,
in California in 1910 the death rate
among city workers was 225 per 100,
000 of population. This had drop
ped to 126 in 1925. For the rural
population the rate was ISO in 1910
and 163 in 1925.
The greatest number of deaths
among workers occurs during the
perk of their working efficiency, or
bofween the ages of 20 and 45.
From 1911 to 1913, 20.5 per cent
of the deaths among gainfully em
ployed white males were due to tu
b' reulosis. This had decreased to
13.4 per cent in 1922-1924.
Metal miners suffered the most,
and this is the only occupation which
dees not show a decrease in the pe
ri id studied. On the contrary, it
reveals an increase
NO CORNER ON HEALTH
No race, white, biack red or yei- J
’ow has a corner on health. All have 1
physical disabilities or defections, j
A recent survey of 4700 school cliil-|
i
drea in the public schools of Wash
irgton, D. C., schools shows that 91
per cent were physically defective.
The postponed meeting of the
Community League will be held a:

eight o’clock. Hostesses Mrs. A.
Xoreide and Mrs. P. Cornstad.
