DON'T VOTE YOURSELF MORE TAXES Since 1913, the salmon industry has paid $20,700,000 in taxes to the Territory of Alaska. This is 55 per cent of all taxes collected. Traps, which provide half of all salmon, contributed heavily to this tax burden through trap licenses, tax on excess trap catch, per case tax on fish caught in traps, Alaska sales tax on fish packed from traps and Territorial in-, ,come tax., , If traps are confiscated, where is the lost tax revenue going to come from? . The answer is simple: Alaska res.i-‘ dents are going to have to dig down In their pockets and pay more taxes. That’s why you serve your own interest when {you vote to keep traps.. VOTE TO CONTINUE TRAPS! Here’s why YOU Should VOTE to CONTINUE TRAPS: ¢ 1. Traps mean jobs—not_just for 45 days but for six to nine months for approximately 4,000 people, mostly Alaskans. 2. Traps are the best means of conserving Alaska’s salmon. - 3. Traps pay taxes. Without them the Territory would “have to levy additional tazes on other Alaska businesses and individuals. 4. Traps, together with mobile gear, allow can- neries to operate efficiently. ‘Without traps, at least 25 large canneries would close down because they would be strip) of their de- pendable supply of salmon—t ousands of men would lose their jobs. 5. Traps are vital to Ala: economy. Confiscate them and you undermine the Territory’s bility. An unstable region cannot develop a diversified economy. 6. Traps so stabilize the entire salmon industry that they make it possible for packers to pay fishermen maximum prices. Confiscate traps and you cut down these earnings. Nobody gains—everyone loses. 7. Traps are vital in maintaining U. S. world leadership in the canned salmon industry. Con- fiscate them and you so weaken America’s posi- tion that it will be possible for Russis, utilizing U.S. built floating canneries, to seize this prize in world trade. The Japanese demonstrated, in 1937, by their operations i Bristol Bay, u‘;n such floating canneries contitute a real threat. 8. Traps represent large investments in venture capital. fiscate them and you discourage other industries from investing in Alaska’s future. X ‘faps provide healthy competition. Confiscate them and you establish a gear monopoly in the catching of salmon. 10. Traps, seines and gill nets — ALL THREE TYPES OF GEAR ARE ESSENTIAL to ;::inui-; Alaska’s c‘;nned ul.\l;:’ ‘r:k Vug- conditions in the Alaska grou: make it .ecnnonicllly feasible to fish cen:ir: areas to full advantage only by means of traps.
