CLUB PROTESTS;
CANNERY PLANS
MAY STOP FISH
Local Organization Joins Fairbanks
In Opposing Plant On Lower
Yukon River.

Fairbanks, Alaska, March &c, 1915
At the request of the Fairbanks
Commercial lclub, the local CONNER
cial club has forwarded a wire to
Delegate Sulzer protesting against
the establishment of a cannery Oh
the Yukon river near Andreofsky, by
the Carlisle Packing comapny The
matter was brought to the attention
of the local organization at the last
meeting and Secretary Joseph was
instructed to take immediate action
/ 1t will also be noted, in the letter
from the Fairbanks club, that the
efforts of the Nenana Commercial
club to promote cooperation be-
tween the two organizations is bear
ing fruit, the Fairbanksans having
welcomed the opportunity to act
with Nenana in matters concerning
the development of the Interior
country.
The letter from the Fairbanks or
ganization is as follows:
Nenana Commercial Club, Nenanna,
Alaska. /
Gentlemen:-Your letter of Mar. !
18th was received in due course, and |
the executive board at its session !
today instructed me to thank you for |
the courtesies extended, and to say
that they look forward to that har-
monious action that is so necessary
if we are to realize lasting benefits
from our endeavors for the public
good of Alaska generally and the In
terror especially.
Acting on your suggestion for
uniformity of action on subjects of
general interest, | am instructed to
call the following to your attention
and request action by your board if
it meets with your approval.
I'VE have this day sent the fol-
lowing telegram to Hon. Charles A.
Sulzer

River now being fed by government
account cannerys catching all fish
in this stream
while perhaps the establishment
of one cannery on the lower Yukon
would not make much difference, it
follows if this cannery
is success others will be built, and
eventually the salmon will be cleaned
out as they are coming up river to
spawn. The natives rely almost
wholly on the fish supply for main
tenance. A member of our club
who just came in over the trail,
talked with a government agent in
charge of supplying the natives of
Copper river with food, who told
him that the natives of that river
were unable to catch their accustom-
ed supply of fish and had none for
themselves or their dogs, for the
reason that cannerys had been es.
tablished near the mouth of the
stream and practically no fish got

that action be taken and would be
glad if your club would join US and .

HEARING SET FOR AUGUST 10

Atlanta, Ga, July 1.-THE Geor-

ust IS as the date for hearing the pc
tition OF the Macon Railway and
Light company for an increase of
rates in street car fares. The fare is
now five cents, and the railway COM
pany wishes to increase it to six cents.
The mayor of Macon and the city
council have waived their contract
right to the five cent fare, and are
leaving the matter entirely at the dis
erection OF the railroad commission.
The railroad commission already
has under consideration the petition
OF the Georgia Railway and Pow
er Company to increase power rates
and trolley fares, and it is expected
that its decision will be announced at
an early date.

DISTRIBUTING THE SUGAR

Atlanta, Ga, July 12-"How do we
stand on sugar" The question must
be answered every day for the next
SIX months by every consumer and
thousands OF them are now being
propounded to the Office of DR.. A. M.
Soule, federal food administrator.
In answer to similar query a men,
Der of the English parliament said,
There is no prospect of any i'm
provement in the national stocks of
sugar so long as the war continues. :"
There is no such tinality about the
American sugar situation, but this
calm acceptance of facts goes long
way IN solving war problems. Ameri-
ca, England, France, and italy depend
mainly on Cuba for sugar. This means
that so long as the war continues it
is likely that the Allies will be on a
meager sugar ration and America on
short allowance
An Improvement in shipping con-
dltions would of course relieve the
situation but distribution from now
until the new crop comes in must be
based on the sugar in sight and not
on probable supplies. Facing the facts
the Food Administration has restrict
ed the allowance of sugar in less es-
sentlal food products in order to
maintain monthly ration of three
pounds to consumers and provide
sugar for both commercial and home
canning
In the plan of distribution which
was put i'll force July l, manufacture
ers of candy, soft drinks, tobacco,
wine and such less essential products,
were cut to 50 per cent and Gamers
OF fruits and vegetables 100 per cent.
No sugar can be sold to manufacture
'erS. to retail merchants or to propri-
etors of eating places except on GER
+ificate from the local Food Admin
istrator indicating the quantity that
may be bought.
The householder is on honor to ra-
ton his family to three pounds a
month per person and is urged to CO.
operate with the Government in fair
distribution of sugar supplies. II the
sugar is available, home Gamers can
obtain more than the Is pounds al
lowance for canning on approval OF
local administrators.
With the hearty cooperation of the
public the Food Administration ex-
poets to avoid any serious scarcity of
sugar for home consumption. The
situation calls for a cheerful accept
ance of facts and an all round recip-
rocity on sugar, reciprocity between
nations, between consumers and man
ufacturers, and between the American
public all around and the Food Ad-
ministration. Common sense and re-
ciprocity all around will bring us to
the end of the year without an en-
barassing shortage.
