Gov. Parks, in Annual Report
Looks for Huge Gain in
Current Year.

BY the Associated Press.
The annual report of Gov. George
Parks Of Alaska, made public yesterday
by Secretary West, noted reduced sue
cess Of mining and fishing operations,
the principal industries in the Territory
Judged by investment and value of pro-
duction, but said that in view of the
poor year for salmon the industrial
conditions and the economic situation
were in general as satisfactory as
could be expected"
0l8,034 to $50, ,962 061 while imports in
creased from $4,000, ,902 to $50, 1895, ,456.
The export drop was aScribed to the
falling off in production of the salmon
fisheries and, to a less extent, the de-
crease in the mineral output.
The fishing catch thus far this year
indicates that the total will exceed all
expectation" the report said, expressing
belief that the present policy of the
Bureau of Fisheries is sound and will
result in the perpetuation of the salmon
fisheries. The outlook for an early de-
velopment of the pulp paper industry
never has been more encouraging" the
report added.
The value Of fisheries products for
the year was placed at SAC, ,163, 900, COM
pared with 1869 1872 the previous year
and the value of minerals was S14 ,404,-
600, compared with SIT, 664, 800.
Under the territorial laws which pro-
vide that not more than 30 per cent of
road funds may be expended for the
construction of aviation fields, So land
ing fields have been built, the governor
reported, making it possible to give air
transportation to most of the important
interior localities.
