A GOOD OMEN
As if awaiting the arrival of the Senators and
other distinquished visitors to Seward today Old Sol
burst forth in all his splendid rainment, touching the
peaks of the mountains with glistening darts of sun
shine then later, flooding Resurrection Bay and Seward
with its warm rays.
EXTREME CLEANLINESS
Some years ago there was prejudice against all
sorts of canned fish. The belief was that the processes
of preservation were often unsanitary.. This prejudice
should not obtain with respect to Alaska salmon for
from the time they are taken from the sea until sealed
in tin, they are treated with the cleanest sort of mach
inery and workers wearing gloves.
A prominent New York City laboratory expert re
cently inspected Alaska canneries and products at the
conclusion of which he remarked; “No food excels in
sanitary recommendations the product of Alaska.”
INDICATION OF DECADENCE
War has been opened upon obscene films, which
are being bootlegged and reproduced at private show
ings. That is has grown to a point where it has to be
suppressed is an alarming sign of decadence. A brilliant
writer once prophesied the outcome of a decisive battle
in a way contrary to all odds, expectations and compu
tations. Her forecast proved true, and when asked for
the facts that had guided her to her conclusions, she
said that no army could win, whose officers covered the
walls of their quarters with indecent pictures.
The Port of Seward is taking on all the appearance
of a bustling seaport of real magnitude with the arrival
in port today of the two destroyers, the Wasmuth anc
Perry, the SS Aleutian, SS Redondo, SS Admiral Wat
son and the geodetic survey ship Westdahl.
