N the canned fish market of the United States Alaska salmon meets many competitors. s Canned California sardines often retail in America as low as §¢ for a pound can. Canning of tuna, fished off the coast of Mexico and Central Amer- ica, is a large industry. Mackerel is now canned in an- nually increasing quantities in Cali- fornia. Canned mackerel is also cheaper in the U. 8. than Canned Salmon. ' Alask#’s Salmon industry has been quick to protect the Territory’s chief product against 'this competition. In a smashing campaign of over 84 mil- lion magazine messages to American housewives this year, the high quality of Alaska salmon is being advertised. The Industry isselling America on the quality of Alaska’s Canned Sal- mon because on price alone salmon can’t compete in America with other canned fish Alaska’s Canned Salmon must reach American housewives at peak quality. The quality of Canned Salmon is governed largely by the lapse of time between ocean and coutainer, The Industry makes a strenuous effort to seé that nothing but fresh fish — fish in finest condition — are canned. EX This policy helps to protect em- ployment and prosperity in the Territory. ‘What Canned Salmon advertising will - accomplish for Alaska €Canned Salmon advertising to U. S. swomen is paid for entirely by the Canned Saimon Indus- try. Its purposes include the following: 1. Tt will seck to safegiard fhis Alaska industry against the competition from other food produets in America. . It will seek to stabilize América’s’ demiand for this Alaska product at fair prices—so that good wages may be paid to Alaska .
