Alaska’s canned salmon pack for 1932 was about 62 per cent of the total world pack of that product. Out of 8,484,011 cases producsd by the world industry, the packers of the Territory produced 509 cases. These figures are revealed in the Service Bulletin, issued by the United States Bureau of Fisheries for the current month The world pack was the smallest in four years. In 1931, the world pack was 9018121 cases; in 1930, 10,438,645 cases; in 1929, 10,046,162 cases. Out- side of Alaska last year other sections produced as follows: Pacific Coast States, 654,460 cases; British Columbia, 1,081,031 cases; Japan, 247251 cases; Si- beria, 1,246,760 cases. The Pacific Coast States pack was 51 per cent less than that in 1931 and 38 per cent less than in 1930. In fact it was one of the smallest packs in the last half-century of the packing industry in this country. The Alaska pack fell off but three per cent from 1931 and was four per cent ahead of that of 1930. The pack in British Columbia was 58 per cent more than in 1931 and 51 per cent less than in 1930 That in Siberia was 10 per cent more than in 1931 and 29 per cent less than in 1930. The pack in Japan was 46 per cent less than in 1931 and 35 per cent less than in 1930. It is apparent that tne Alaska packers, by virtue of their production, in terms of quantity, are in_positiop i they ean get together to control the canned salmon market. In any normal year, their production is more than that of all other salmon canning countries combined. The superior- ity of the quality of their pack is widely known to be even more pronounced than it is in mere quan- tity. They have everything in their favor as far as natural conditions are concerned. But this ad- vantage can be, and many authorities emphatically claim has been, nullified by a lack of a cohesive and uniform policy some of the largest of the packing concerns. now the great need for the local packers seems to be the appearance of some leader who can iron out internal differences and get the various elements to work together as a unit. Unless this is done, the industry will continue to be unprofitable for superior failure or irregularity | d Business Offices, 374. | of marketing on the part of| Right | most™ of ‘those engaged in. it, itself, which is as vitally interested as the packers are themselves. and the Territory, in its prosperity by Percival VALIANT DusT Christopher Wren -u.!nu GESTE® THE CHURCH TO THE RESCUE.

It is that ki attitude that would keep it there even though it wrecked the nation and delivered it into the hands of the racketeers. It led to hypocriey sovernment and will just as surely duplicate it in the church of which Bishop Mouson is an outspoken leader. in C PUTTING MEN BACK TO WORK. Within a few months, from one-half to two-thirds of the nation’s enforced idle will be back at work. That, at least, is the confident belief of Senator Robert F. Wagner, New York Democrat, whose labor bills are regarded as representing the views of the Roosevelt Administration. In a recent statement to the press of the country regarding the public works program he is sponsoring in the United States, he said: I see this country surely returning to better conditions. With the mobilization of private industry, the program now being worked out in connection with the Govern- ment's proposal for a vast expenditure of public works, an army of workers will soon be back in employment. I see between 6,- 000,000 and 7,000,000 people again in re- munerative employments in the next eight months if the plans now under consideration are enacted. All we need to do is to have fortitude and patience, and this the President has to a very great degree. I expect to see his plans prime the economic pump, and add the necessary stimulus to bring us to the road | of ecopomic recov I am hopeful that the domestic program will be well under way in the next few weeks, and that negotiations with foreign nations will bring about agreements which will restore our foreign trade, so necessary to complete economic recovery in | the United States. With 5-cent cigars alread\ here and 5-cent beer | coming soon, many ci ns are convinced that both prosperity and happiness are just around the corner. | —(Chicago News.)

Miskeen stirred the brew more, and then hurried with laden, tray to his master's room. When Hassan el Miskeen entered, he found his master seated cross- legged upon a divan, a bottle of brandy and a glass upon a low table by his side. Seated opposite to him, lolling in comfort, smoking a cigarette. Raisul smiled enigmatically. “Put the coffee beside the Sidi,” ordered Jules. And having obeyed, Hassan e! Miskeen departed from the room and sat himself down within sight of the door to watch and wait. Would that human devil actually die there in the room? Might Has- san be called, to go quickly for help, and looking into the room, might he actually see him contort- ed and writhing in the throes of |death; with his own eyes see him |dying there in dreadful agony, even as he had caused so many others to die in agony?

Jules poured himself a generous imeasure of brandy. “Allah,” he said, “that funny,” and smacked his lips and clicked his tongue doubtfully. “Brandy wrong, or your liver?” smiled Raisul, still stirring the un- tasted coffee. | | “My 1liver's all ri” observed Jules, who suddenly seemed a lit- tle drunk. “So’s the brandy,” replied Rai- sul. “Try it again.” | Jules Maligni tried it again. “Snasty,” he said. “Bin in boil forth | a tiny amulef-box. | And smacking his lips, Hassan el | once | he asked, nodding} “Rather.
