THE COST OF A CASE OF
 SALMON


 published on January 10th, we are informed that the cost of a case of salmon is as follows: "Fish 27 per cent; salt, labels and lacquer, 2 per cent; cans, 25 per cent; box shocks, 3 per cent; cannery labor, 25 per cent; fuel and oil, per cent; freight, per cent; insurance, 4 per cent; taxes, 3 per cent" If you were to add all of these figures to- gether you would find that it adds up 100 per cent. In other words, there is no allowance whatever for profit. So that if MT. Alaska Packer is to be believed, he is operating canneries here for the sole purpose of keeping us employed and alive; no allowance made for storage, which equals 5c per case per month; no allowance made for selling the goods, which amounts to per cent; nor is there any allowance for the little matter of financing a seasons pack, which will run from 8 per cent to 10 per cent at least.
 In other words the person who wrote the articles is special writer, inexperienced in this line of business, and who has overlooked expense items that cannot be evaded. He was careful enough to add the percentage of figures so that he ac- counted for 100 per cent, but how can he escape storage, finance and selling cost?
 In the matter of taxes, the spe- cial pleader of the Alaska Packers credits himself at per cent, but as matter of fact the tax on the model canner, which he seems to be discussing, is only 1Oc per case Territorial tax on reds, and 4c ad- ditional tax imposed by the Federal Government. This makes a tax of 14c per case. The selling price be- ing $9 per case, the tax is 1 1-2 per cent. The additional tax based on net income is not included, for the special pleader is not figuring any profit.
 Take the item entitled "box shooks." The price paid for box shocks, fob. any factory in Alaska, is 2Oc per box. The special pleader takes credit for 5 per cent, so that case of reds, according to his figure, amounts to 45c. The objec- tion will be made that we are fgur- ing on the basis of red salmon, whereas the special pleader is talk ing about pinks. Our answer is that the special pleader should indicate the class of salmon OH which he is figuring, otherwise the advertise- ment, which is published for the purpose of informing the public" :" becomes nothing more than a piece of rank deceit. This is a fair re-
The Alaska fisherman., 1925-02-15

we nave CI1cu CO secure lfOIu CHo Territorial Treasurer exact figures on the net income of a large num- Der of canneries in Alaska. We were refused this information. How ever, in law case which originated in 1919, at which time the cannery refused to pay the Territorial tax, we found that as a matter of court record that the profit of the Annette Island Packing Company for that year was $121, ,0OO; that the total expenditures were about $40, ,OOO; that the total labor charges amount ed to $35,OO0, and that their salary account totaled $48,OOO. A compar- ison of the last two items is very significant. The estimated cost of this plant is $25O,OOO, so that the profit here listed amounts to almost 50 per cent. Please bear in mind year but average year with this cannery.
 The special pleader of the Canning Industry in his figures allows noth- ing for profit.
 We can only say in closing, "What doth it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul"
 Regarding the above discussion the Alaska Packer may say that the percentages that enter into the cost of a case of salmon indicate lott to the total cost. For instance, the cost of fish is listed at 27 per cent, and hence this 27 per cent refers to the total cost, so that if the total cost was $4 a case, the raw fish would amount to $1OS.
 This manner of figuring, however, only makes the deception of the Alaska Packer ali the more griev- GUS, for we ar, 1ct informed what the average cost Dcr case is. Jn- less we are informed what the cost is as it relates to the selling price, resident Aalskans should withhold their tears of sympathy. For eX ple' If the total cost only amounts to $2 per case for pink salmon, there would be an average profit per case of $40, which would give the canner a profit of 100 per ceht on the money used. How then can any one feel sorry for business man who makes a profit of 100 per cent?
 In t;ic case of red salmon, where the selling price is S9 per case, the profit would amount to $7, or $50 per cert. It is our opinion that the canners of Alaska are still en- gagged in the old game of fooling the public, and that even now they are not giving us the facts, although

the ship will touch Havana, Haiti
and the Virgin Islands. This cruise
will be watched with much interest,
as she is going into the West Indian
hurricane area. During the cruise
from which she just returned from
Bermuda, the constant pitching and
rolling caused the breaking of the main
steam feed line, and there is a fear
that the vessel may run into diff
culties If she should meet with heavy
storm in the West Indies.
