lG PRINCE WILLIAM SOUND CANNEPIES TIC GIVE WORK TO 2,5Oc PERSONS THIS YEAR

With the fishing season less than a week away, 16 eanneries in the vicinity Of Cordoya on the Prince William Sound are pre- pared for the annual harvest from the seas.
 It has been estimated that practically 1.500 persons will he employed at the cannerios them selves this season in addition to from TOO to 1000 fishermen who will do the actual harvesting Of the "crop."
 Additional machinery and equipment has been installed by ! number of the canneries so that they will be able to handle practically any run of fish that could come. With even a normal run of fish the pack this year should be larger than it was in 1927, but if the predictions of old timers are fulfilled the run this year will far exceed that of the past few seasons.- Cor dcva Times,)
