CONGRESSIONAL WIBRARY VASHINGTON, D. © SATURDAY T 1 P.M. Edition ¢ by o “ALL THE NEWS ALL THE TIME” SATURDAY 1 P.M. Edition VOL. LXXVIIL, NO. 11,937 Small Start at H "0f Smoked Salmon Plant May Give All-Year Wof!( | which community’s ec-# onomy heretofore, has depended ONjThe skin and few bones left are the summer’s salmon and fishidg|removed and the salmon is sliced industry, now has a small start in| 5 mych like dried beef and canned. Haines, a related industry which may be in operation the year around. Many hands are busy in this smail but important Alaska city, and|a number of Haines people is provid- many iingers are staying crossed, | as work goes forward in a smoked salmon plant which recently com- pleted successful trial runs. The new industry might be said to have sprung from the.beginning | of a community veterans’ cooper- Lative plan after World War II. There-was a coricentrated effort to employ the town’s veterans by es- tablishing new industry. Efforts along several lines did not prove outstandingly success- ful, but some of Haines’ citizens did not give up. Notable among these was Carl Heinmiller, manager of the Port Chilkoot Terminal company He saw the possibilities in a smok- ed salmon industry in Haines. He asked the advice of C. L. An- derson, director of the Department of Fisheries, and, as it proved, ae couldn't have come to a man who knew more of the answers. Smoked Salmon Industry Anderson had gained reputation in the Territory through several projects, among them the crab can- nery in Douglas, and the shrimp in- dustry in Juneau. But the important thing from Heinmiller’s interest was that Anderson had vast exper- ience in tHe smoked salmon busi- ness, and had designed an efficient smokehouse with many innovations that made its use commercially feasible. 2 Anderson says he was in the busi- | ness in Seattle, but didn't think of his plans for the smokehouse until he wentinto government work. He wrote a technical piece which was printed in booklet form by the government and showed the pléns of the smokehouse in detail. Anderson went to Haines and act- @ ed in an advisory capacity in help- ing the small business get started. Anderson says that Haines is ideally situated for the industry, lying betviyan Ps two planned sources of supply—the Chilkat and the Chilkoot rivers—and having transportation outlets to the south- east and to the Interior should the industry grow. Operate Year Around Through using frozen fish, the ¥smoked salmon plant could operate the year around. Financing the pur- chase of enough fish has kept Hein- miller’s project from getting away to the fastest of starts, but optimism has not died. Anderson 5ays there is a small, privately owned plant of similar d¢sign {operating suocensfully in Seldovia. Eight similar plants of An- derson’s design are in operation in the state of Washington. Here is the way the plant will operate: Silvers or red salmon are bought. After cleaning, they are cut into sides, then cured in salt—much like the curing of ham or bacon. Anderson furnished the special| curing formula being used. The! sides are laid flat on screens rack- ed up on a truck whieh rolls into| the big oven, First the moisture| o is drawn off, then the salmon is cured in the circulating smoke of alder or wild crabapple wood. The fish are smoked quite solid. | The Washington Merry - Go- Round (Covy=ight, 1951. by Bell Syndicate, Inc.) By DREW PEARSON ~ W\SHINGTON — Senator Taft let his hair down the other eve- ning at an off-the-record dinner for Republican newgomers to Cong- ress. Under a barrage of questions, he talked like a Presidential candi- date but couldn’t be coaxed into admitting he was one. “Senator,” blurted Illinois’ Con- 3 gressman Tim Sheehan, “when we go to a football game on Saturday afternoon and we see the players running up and down the side- lines, we assume they are about ready to get in the game. You have been running up and down all over the country. Are you or are you not a candidate?” “Not at the moment,” Taft. “Would you be interested in a > Taft-MacArthur ticket?” fired Con- gressman Albert Morano M,Connec- ticut. “No, I wouldn’t, but MacArthur might ke interested in a MacArthur- Taft ticket,” shot back Mr. Re- publican. grinned (Continued on Page 4) J _Haines citizens see great possib- ilities in the new industry, and are hoping year around employment for ed. Anderson points out that there is no way of knowing how well or how fast the plant will grow. But he says a good try is being made, and the success of the plant means a great deal to the Alaskan | community. Politics Starting In States # By the Associated Press Preliminary maneuvers in the | 1052 battle for the Presidency are | shaping up all over at state levels. | At Austin, Texas, a liberal faction of Texas’ usually-split Democratic party gathered at a political break- fast today to hear a speech by Sec- retary of Agriculture Brannan. The goup, calling themselves “Vol- unteer Democrats,” was reported | deeply concerned over the renewed threat of a “States’ Rights Demo- crat” uprising like that which nomi- nated its own ticket in 1948. At Oklahoma City yesterday, Gov. Johnston Murray said he would Ils- ten to the arguments of such South- ern States’ Righters who are talking about a break with the present na-. tional administration, o In the GOP camp, Governor War- ren of California threw down what | amounted to a challenge to con- servative Republicans in his state. At Sacramento, the three-term Gov- | ernor who calls himself a Progres- | sive Republican, said he welcomed |a reported move by party leaders | opposed to his policies to field their }__o\vn delegation at the June Presi- | dential primary. Fishefi Produds To Be Plentiful, Fairly Firm Markel WASHINGTON, Oct. 13—(P—The Fish and Wildlife Service today forecast a generally plentiful sup- ply of fishery products and a fairly firm market for them for the re- mainder of the year. An analysis by Ralph Russell, a commodity expert in the service's branch of commercial fisheries, said that although large supplies ©of meats, including poultry, also will be available, the relatie price levels probably will leave fishery products in a favorable position.

Earlier more than 200,000 persons had swarmed around the couple, waving British flags, shouting ‘and laughing as they passed through small cities between Ottawa and ‘Toronto.

Fleischmann that some “less essential” products using critically scarce copper and aluminum will be “very drastically curtailed.” N He did not specify the items, but they were understood to include good like venetian blinds and house wares of the type in which plasties or other substitutes could be used. But there will be no “death sen- tence orders,” or outright prohibi- tions on the use of basic materials in any such products, Fleischmann said. Find $1-Million Shorfages in Penn.

Baseball Trading Rumors By RALPH RODEN NEW YORK, Oct, 13 — B — Major league teams, especially the also rans, have launched their 1952 rebuilding programs and it appears that one of the most spirited trad- in3z sessions in years is on tap.

Reports persist that the Yanks made a down payment on Garver when they sold outficlder Cliff Mapes to the Browns on waivers during the season. Second base- man Gerry Coleman and four other Yanks along with a 'bundle of cash are supposed to complete the transaction. General Manager George Weiss of the Yanks admitted yesterday i that he had huddled with St. Louis officials for three hours but had reached no agreement on any deals. “There was no deal made,” Weiss said. The rumors also say the White Sox wiil send a number of players including Jim Rivera, a rookie who burned up the Pacific Coast League and cash to the Browns. Rivera played for Seattle under Rogers Hornsby, the Browns' new ‘manager, Meanwhile, the Browns have been stocking up with minor leaguers. They have purchased pitchers Hal Hudson and Johnny Hetki from their Toronto International League farm club and yesterday obtained infielder Leo Thomas from Portland of the Pacific Coast Leagué.

UNEAU, ALASKA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1951 Milifary Pay Boost Proposed WASHINGTON, Oct, 13 — P — A House Armed Services subcom- mittee has approved a bill to raise the pay of everyone in the military services by 10 percent. The measure, however, has only a slim e of adoption at this sessfon of Congress. The Senate Armed Services committee has said it will defer action until January. As originally drawn it would have put a limit of $800 a year on the raises, cutting higher paid officers below the 10 percent. The sub- committee knocked this out. Under the $800 limit plan generals and admirals would have received only a 5 percent increase, colonels and some lieutenant colonels with long service only between seven and eight percent. ‘The ten percent boost under the bill as amended would be extended to all retired personnel.
