j5 Firms Apply
For ProceHsilifj
ASasLn Soil I Skins
i WASHINGTON (/PI—Five firms,
1 including one in London, England,
met the Nov. 1 deadline for sub
j mitting proposals for processing
and selling Alaska seal skins for
| the government, the Interior Dept.
| announced Monday.
The list included Fouke Fur Co.,
j formerly of St. Louis, Mo., and
1 now of Greenville, S.C., which
1 handled the furs for 40 years.
; Fouke's contract was canceled, ef
| fective last Dec. 31, with the In
terior Dept, giving as one reason
the company’s decision to move
from St. Louis without prior notice
to the department.
The department said it will be
some time next year before nego
tiation of a new contract can pro
ceed.
Eleven firms and individuals had
requested raw seal skins for ex
perimental use in developing an
adequate process for processing
the skins into finished luxury furs
but only five proposals to process
and sell the skins were received.
The prospectus which was sup
plied interested firms and indi
viduals listed four steps in the
specifications — preliminary pro
cessing the skins from the cured
stage to finished luxury skins, de
veloping the market, and selling
the finished skins at public auc
Proposals for more than one
operation were received from
Pierre LaCelde Fur Co., St. Louis;
Supara, Inc., Chicago; Fouke Fur
Co.; C. W. Martin & Sons Ltd.,
London; and Jonas Bros, of Seattle
and Alaska.
Three firms interested in con
ducting the auctions only filed
proposals: New York Auction Co.
(Minnesota) Inc., Minneapolis: New
York Auction Co., Inc., New York;
and the Seattle Fur Exchange,
Seattle.
