In an effort to perpetuate salmon runs in Territorial waters, the Alaska salmon industry established the Univere sity of Washington Fisheries Research Institute five years 2go. The University’s Institute is financed by salmon packers. It is an entirely independent, scientific research organization. Working under the direction of Dr. William F. Thompson, who is an internationally recognized authority, the Iastitute carefully studies the habits of the salmon. The objectives of these studies are to promote the proper perpetuation and efficient use of the supply of fish. The research program of the Institute complements studics being made by the Fish and Wildlife Service. These studies are supported on an annual basis by salmon packers of the Bristol Bay, Westward, Kodiak Island, Southeastern Alaska and other districts, who assess themselves a fixed amount per case of salmon. Members of the industry have allocated nearly a million dsliars to the Institute since it was established at the University in 1946.

But this aircraft carrier is only a light- weight compared to some of the towering dread- naughts that make the U. S. Navy the mightiest in the world. Your navy is in there slugging every minute, doing its job to defend you and all of the things you hold dear. But remember, defense is your job, too! And one of the best ways to do your job is to buy U. 8. De- fense* Bonds. You’ll be helping your country and at the same time you’ll be making the soundest in- vestment on earth today. For U. S. Defense Bonds are as safe as America! The U. S. Defense Bonds you buy give you personal financial independence Remember that when you’re buying Defense Bonds you’re building a personal reserve of cash savings. Money that will day buy you a house, or educate your child¥en, or support you when you retire. Remember, too, that if you don’t save regularly, you don’t save at all. So go to your company’s pay office—now— and sign up for regular Defense Bond purchases through the Payroll Savings Plan. In this plan, you may save as little as $1.25—or as much as you want—each week. If you can save just $7.50 weekly, in ten years you’ll have bonds worth $4,329.02 cash! You'll be helping protect America —and helping your dreams come true. *U. S. SAVINGS BONDS ARE DEFENSE BONDS BUY THEM REGULARLY! The U. S. Government does not pay for this advertising. The Treasury Department \ thanks, for their patriotic donation, the Advertising Council and The Daily Alaska Empire
