For years The Empire has advocated the ade- quate advertising, national and international, of canned salmon, believing that the ‘real market for this delicious food, which properly prepared becomes a real delicacy, has scarcely been scratched. The following editorial, from the Anchorage Timés, shows that other Alaska papers realize what proper ex- Pploitation can do for the salmon market: At last the salmon industry is waking up to the value of publicity. Yesterday's dispatches announced the As- sociated Pacific Fisheries will launch an advertising campaign. Three quarters of a million dollars is to be invested in printer's ink. Doubtless the eampaign will result in the gospel of salmon being spread through ad- vertising channels from ocean to ocean. The great American public and perhaps a good percentage oreign public, will be made salmon s. They will be told of the virtues of ion, one of the most wholesome and essential food. at moderate cost to be found in the world. The campaign means much to .Alaska. It will result, no doubt, in more salmon being consumed. The more salmon consumed the greater the demand—and Alaska as the world’s premier salmon producer will be the major beneficiary. When Alaska salmon industries thrive thousands of people along the vast coastal sweep of Alaska are made thirfty and happy. And Alaska’s salmon is not the only food stuff of Alaska that might be successfully exploited in advertising. Her many other varieties.of fish, hier clams, grabs and other sea foods deserve more publicity. Sea foods contain the phosphorus and cal- cium that make for good sound bone and teeth. Nature demands a portion of such elements in order to give the individual bone and teeth that will endure. Heavy fish eaters have a minimum of tooth decay and bone trouble. Fish should be eaten fre quently several times a week. A fish diet helps take one away from excessive meat diets, notoriously creative of excessive acids and other troubles. Alaska is blessed in her the most invaluable foods can multiply her returns mines of the seas if she will but exploit them more fully. Why should not salmon, cod, herring and other fish from Alaska be popularized as much as tuna so much in demand in every. lunch room and cafe in the big outside world. £%43 The salmon canners hnve caught the spirit—they will win if they persist. The psychology wrapped up in" the mere sug- gestion of “Eat Salmon”—“Eat More Fish" will go a long way to bring added millions to Alaska. The salmon canners are on the right track. More power to them in their great advertising campaign. fish with one of of nature. She from her gold HAL SELBY BACK IN FOLD. For sometime The Empire has welcome Hal B. Selby back into the publishing fraternity of Alaska. Unexcusable procrastination is the only poor excuse we have to offer. Hal Selby has been a consistent community builder during his many years in Alaska. He is constructive, courageous-and progressive. The fol- lowing editorial in his paper the Valdez Miner, is characteristic, and The Empire ‘congratulates the Miner on starting of its Volume Thirty-one and hopes that many more volumes, reflecting its ef- fective work ensue: Last week [rhe Valdez Miner printed Number One Volume Thirty-one. For sev- eral years ,ver a quarter of a century The Miner has stood with the town, taking the bitter with the sweet, and laboring in< defatigably for the upbuilding of the com- munity. While not'the oldest paper in the Territory, it is one of the oldest, and during i publication has recorded many stirring events and-its files’ are repigte with names long since huricd $n oblivien. It has served the town (% zenith and ‘been with it through its hadiz . it has seen firms, and persons wax aud wane, and wither as the grass before the sickle, =~ “ ’ Whether, during its long caréer, it has stood for the best in everything, we know not, but we believe that to its full ability it tried to serve, with no thought of re- ward, other than ‘the upbuilding and ad- intended to An Unw:»e Precedent ¥ (eincinhati Enquirer.) + @neegoes not have to be an enthusiastic admirer of ‘Secretary'Hatold L. Ickes to see an unfortunate precedent in the proposed scheme to “punish him” by denying him the right to handle public work funds. Mr. Ickes’s honesty and ability are in no way involved. The Congress was asked by the President to appropriate a gigantic sum of money for public works. It undoubtedly will comply. A number of Congressmen, however, are piqued by what they consider Mr. Ickes's lack of deference to their political sagacity in planning the expenditure of public moneys. They propose to insert in the appropriation bill a proviso that Mr. Ickes shall not be allowed to allocate or administer this fund. The Congress should not overlook that we have a Presidential system of government, The President is chosen by the: people, ‘and has complete executive authority, except as it is’limited by legislation ‘and court. decisions. He appoints his Cabinet officers. They are responsible- to him. It was the President who asked for $4,000,000,000, and it is he -who is in an appropriation meusur; is.to objett to the President’s policy. . . If there is gnything wro with Mr Ickes, _en,her dishanesty or incompft,ence, thé ¢0n§rc&'{ ist at” hlr erty to -investigate. | If§it “fifds ‘anything- wrong, the President undoub'.edly will make short work of Mr. Ickes. Actually, however, the quarrel is merely a reflection of the irritation which some political- minded Congressmen feel towards a Cabinet member whose mind does not run to party pplitics. The Congress might properly specify, if it chooses, what purposes should be included or excluded in the public works program, and what types of project it wants the money used for. But to object to Mr. Ickes as the Administrator is to hamper the right- ful prerogative of the President to carry out his policies through the men he trusts. responsible for its wise use. To object to, Mr. Ickesiaem!“knm, had been broke, Troubles. (Seattle Daily Journal of Commerce.) “When you get a certain slant on troubles,” says | Robert Updergraff, an Eastern advertising wmer.\ “you discover that they are rather useful after all. They pay about half your salary. “It's this way,” he explains, “whether you are| o the head of a firm, 4 department or even the |Harbor. buy, | ship goods:or keep books, some one could be found| office or plant handy man; whether you sell, to handle the job for about half what you get, wrong, the people who treat you contemptibly, the difficulties that have to be met and overcome.” It takes intelligence, experience, patience, tact and courage to properly meet the troubls of any job. That is why you hold your present position. And it may be the reason why you don't hold a more important one. | In every organiation there are employees whose work, to all outward appearances, could be handled by most any green hand. They. go about their tasks methodically as long as things run smoothly. | But when troubles occur, they are worth all the| green-hands in a city. They know what to do and | how to do it. They are paid for what they know —for their experience—rather than the relatively unimportant routine duties their positions require when things run smoothly. The same applies to those in important posts. Most of them work fairly short hours; they don't become flustered. They know what to do in a pinch—when trouble comes. That is what they are paid for, and their under- standing and -ability would seldom be appreciated and compensgbec they may fail to give due credit for their position| in the general scheme of -things. Mojave Strike Example to Alaska. (Anchorage Daily Times.) Spirited Alaskans will find inspiration in the new gold-silver strike in the Mojave area. Pacific Coast papers are ringing with news o[ the most sensational strike in hard rock since the days of Goldfields and Tonopah. Mining engineers from all over the continent, prospectors and many who know nothing of the| game have flocked into the region by thousands. | There—in the State which was the scene of the the biggest find of the kind yet, has just been made, nearly a century after California first became a mining sensation. And yet some will say all chances for new finds are past in the mining areas of America, Alaska included. | The old story has gone the rounds that young men no longer know the game and will not take | the chance nor take to the game. Yet this new| strike—only 80 miles from Los Angeles, was made | by a man only 32 years of age, a recent college student. . And the property he found and opened | by inteligent application has lain there dormant for | ages, almost in the outskirts of a city of neu.rlyl two million population. And his discovery is| reputed now to have changed hands for $3500,000. | Uncle Sam himself is turning prospector—and | for the first time is backing the American mining industry with a modern mining organization. Mil- lions are to be advanced under the new deal to aid mining. Loans are to be made to mining concerns. Prospectors also are to be assisted. Alaskans should not fail to get in line for their share—and every young man with an ounce of ambition and oldsters still blessed with health and activity will find a great incentive in California’s new strike. . Alaska is not yet scratched, and millions will be |made out of other latent minerals not yet dis- covered. Who will get them.
