It pays the wages of over 11,000 local workers and fishermen. Its purchases of coal, lumber, wire, many Alaska products help other industries to meet their payrolls. Its territorial tax payments help to provide salaries for Alaska’s school teachers and government officials. In other words, the Canned Salmon Industry is actually the Territory’s biggest pay master. _— 4 Above is a picture o DE VALERA IS SEEKING PEACE {Prime Min*i;fer of Irish! | Free State Makes Appeal to U. §. DUBLIN, Dec. 26.—An imr peace conference among the f the warring nations was by Prime Mini in a radio address to the States. After mentioning the sympathy | whicb the people of the United States and Eire have for the peo-) ples in warring r ms, De Valera said: “Knowledge that in modern war, both victor and vanquished have to suffer privations for many | years after the war. They should urge that a settlement be sought now. It is better to seek a settle- ment in good will rather than to wait until exhaustion has forced the war to end. Common sense sug- gests that it be tried now before the war has wrought its full havoc.” De Valera expressed his regret at not having been able to accept President Roosevelt’s invitation to visit the United States last sum- mer. He said he had hoped to come to America to get support for his cam- paign to reunite the six ¢duntries of northern Ireland with Efre.

The Bonneville dam is in the Columbia River 40 miles east of Portland, Oregon. President Roosevelt had said that heavy industries could get low cost power in the northwest, close to rich deposits of ore and that the development of such industries would aid national defense. The aluminum company contract revealed that the company intends to establish a refining plant at Vancouver to work the aluminum | ore. | .

' This district, classed as a military region, is bound with numerous re- strictions. But many of the big | hotels which closed at the outbreak of the war are opening their doors.
