At the close of operations of August 10, the salmon canneries of Southeast Alaska had a pack of l. 541 900 cases of all varieties it was announced today by Henry O'Malley, United States Commis- sioner of Fisheries. The feature in the pack was the unusual propor- tion of red salmon in the district, 150,292 cases being reported.
 It will be about two weeks be- fore the end Of the season. No estimate was made on the total pack
 The pack by varieties as an- nounced by the Commissioner fol- lows: Kings, 6.537; reds, 150,292; pinks, 1,126,305; chums, POS, ,795; echoes, 1,473 cases. In addition to these figures, two canneries had not reported their packs which, it was certain, would boost the total to above 100000 cases.
 The pack in the Juneau district, with three plants unreported, was 732,128 cases, and it was expected the final figure would exceed 800,- GOO.
 The Ketchikan district, which closes Friday evening, on August 10 was within 50,Q00 cases of the 1928 pack on the same date.
 The area around Union Bay, Ka- saan. Scowl Arm, Moira Sound and Chomley was but 25,000 cases short of last season.
 On the west coast of Prince of Wales Island the pack last Satur- day night was 90,093 cases as against 46,369 at the same date last year
 At the end of this week commer- cial fishing will be closed in all except two districts-the North and South Prince of Wales Island areas. It closes in the former August 20, and in the latter on August 24.

SALMON PLANTS IN s. E. AL ASKA HAVE BIC PACK
C'Malley Announces l. 54l ,000 Cases Packed
 Up to Last Saturday

The 1929 Alaska salmon pack probably will aggregate between 1,750,000 and 5,000,00O cases of all the several grades of fish, accord ing to statement made by Com missioner of Fisheries Henry O'Mal- ley, to the Chamber of Commerce today. He predicted that the South east Alaska pack would reach g. 000,000 cases.
 This, he added, while not a big pack, is fair and is highly satisfac- tory following the dismal failure of 1927 when the Bureau of Fisheries closed down commercial fishing considerably ahead of the original closing date.
 He reviewed the several sections briefly. The KarIuk River red run and Cook Inlet generally were the only areas where conditions were unsatisfactory.

Sargon's Fame
Spreads Over
Entire Nation
New Scientific Medicine Proclaim
ed Greatest Medicine of All Time
BY Tens of Thousands Who Have
Taken 1t.

Never before, perhaps in all his
tory has the demand for a pro-
prietory medicine ever been ap-
proched the wonderful record that
is now being made by Sargon, the
new scientific formula which has
been accomplishing such remark
able results throughout this Sec
ton. Its fame is rapidly spreading
over the entire country and where
ever introduced, Sargon is the
most talked of medicine in the
country today. Nothing like it has
ever been seen before.
Sargon was first placed on the
market just a little over six
months ago. Its success was i'm
mediate and people everywhere
were quick to recognize in it a
new and epochmaking product
medicine of great power and ex-
traordinary merit. In leading cities
where it has been placed on sale,
it has required from 10000 to
100000 bottles to supply the UNI
a record probably never before
equaled in the history of the drug

that the law is inadequate and
in some respects dangerous.
4. Or we may adopt this new
machinery, enter heartily m
to the task of making its OPP
Grafton successful, secure for
every farm home the last pos
sible cent of advantage to be
had thot it, put at the COM
mand of the farm board every
ounce of our energy and our
strength.
This last plan, in President
Huff's Judgment is "the only plan
at once worthy and practical" But
he says that with distinct reser-
walton that the farmers union
should adopt it "only provided
such a relationship is established
as will give us continuing ex-
istence and positive function"
His conclusion is that "the farm
board should operate from and
beyond the terminal markets only.
It should concern itself with the
central handling Of commodities.
The farm board should not
cross that line drawn through ter
minal markets till the farmers
have been given a full and honest
chance to develop and coordinate
their own organizations and find
they can not do so"
In contrary with that attitude
of "watchful waiting" is the swing
of the cooperative movement. At
Baton Rouge, La, Friday, widely
attended conference of coopera-
tives, after listening to an address
from Chairman Legge of the farm
board, organized national coop
erative council. Eight of the lead
ing cooperatives in the country,
representing 100 C o m m d i y
groups numbering a membership
of more than 100000 farmers,
participated in the preliminary
work of organization. The farm
board was assured by telegraph of
the desire of the new organization
to cooperate, and President Hoover
was congratulated upon the type
of men selected for the federal
farm board.

VACATION, AHoY,
EACETICIoUS cartoonists 5

LyACEIlClOUS cart0onlStS spend
4 a great deal of their time be-
tween June l and Labor Day pic
turing vacations as something full
of sand, mosquito bites and acute
fatigue, c1uttered up with people
wondering why they ever left the
comforts of home to wear themsel-
YES out trying to have wild time
in the wide, open spaces.
The cartoonist may be right.
The point is that vacations, pleas
ant or unpleasant, always accom-
plish their purpose-you return to
home and work with enough ener-
gy and interest to carry you thru
the next 80 weeks.
If you are the sensible sort OF
person who gets real rest for
two weeks, you may come back
with regrets but lots Of pep. If
you are Of the majority, who wear
themselves out climbing noun
tains or driving 500 miles a day,
you may come back without much
pep, but there will be no regrets.
You'll be surprised how fine you
feel the first morning after a good
sleep in your own bed, a bath IN
your own bath tub and meal
cooked on a real stove. Office
work will seem like loafing after
the strenuous program Of vaca-
ton days.
So after all, no matter how your
vacation seems at the time, it does
its work. It provides a needed
break in the years toll. So don't
be too Disguised if you get home
from the lake feeling like the last
rose of sumner, having spent all of
your savings and lost half Of your
camp equipment, to find that the
neighbor's dog has rooted up all
your flowers, and the lawns dried
up and the cat has seven kittens.
You should worry. You've had your
vacation, haven't you?

THE SPIRIT GOES ON

nEATHswe have always with US.
- Those to whom life was emf
nently desirable above all else
have sought in vain for fountains
of youth, for some way, natural
or magic, to ward off the creeping
informities Of age. Others have
simply sealed their minds against
the thought that some day, they
must go as all before them have
gone.
Every week brings the story of
some member of our community
who has reached the fullness of
the years allotted. Every week we
lose an advisor, helper, kindly
neighbor and friend. The old pio-
neers who have seen our town
grow from few shacks on lhe
river bank to thriving and inde-
pendent little city-these pioneers
are leaving US one by one. Their
passing is a sorrow.
Yet the balance of life is main
tanned. There are younger ones
forging up close behind them,
ready to accept the mantle drop
ped from feeble hands. The spirit
of a community exists above the in
dividual personalities that carry
it. We can best do honor to the
dead by carrying on what they
have begun with patience and fore
sight.

WILL co-ops COOPERATE?

From Spokesman Review, Aug. 5
COME leaders of old line farm
- organizations Like the farmers
union and the grange are looking
askance at the momentum of the
cooperatives under the support of
the federal farm board. They are
wondering what the big coopera-
tive movement may do to them and
their organizations.
The Washington Farmer of Au-
gust / gives prominence to let
ted from C. E. HUFF, president of
the National Farmers union to Al
mer McCurtain, president of the
Washington and Northern Idaho
union. President Huff, pointing
out that "every feature of the farm
bureau requires organization to
make it operative" says:
There is bit of irony in
the fact that there is now de-
veloping a tendency to treat
the farm organizations as Of
no Importance and the cooper
atives as representing an hon
est but puny attempt to meet
a great need. Whether this
propheses the development of
a big national program, into
which present cooperatives are
to be merged and lost and in
which no place at all is allow
ed for farm organizations, re-
mains to be seen. Such pro-
gram would mark the final
tragedy of the farm if it sue
ceeded.
President Huff canvasses var
ious attitudes that could be take1
by the farm organisations:
1. There could be surrender,
withdrawal
2. There could be nonpart-
icipation, refusal to cooperate.
8. We could oppose, saying

The Radio Corporation of Amer

reached an accord looking to a
merger of the two companies, it
was announced today.
The announcement was Issued
simultaneously by the Radio Cor

II followed several days of rumors
that an actual merger of the two
concerns was about to take place.
A merger of these two companies
would bring together the extensive
radio system of the Radio Corpora
tion, which operates to numerous
foreign countries; the vast MacKay
system Of cables across both the
Pacific and the Atlantic, the Postal
Telegraph Company's land Morse
telegraph lines. the All-America

legal, but the statements say the
companies expect the law to be
changed.

Police persecution is increasing,
"Cossacks" are being massed here,
and the organizer of the National
Textile Workers Union, Clarence
Nicholson, has been arrested and
fined. But the strikers stand firm.
The strike started March 81 over
the discharge of John Gregory, or
ganizer for the National Textile
Workers Union.
$500 Out in Pelser.
The 10000 spindles of the New
England Southern Manufacturing
Co. at Pelser, S. c., were stopped
when $500 workers struck March
rs against speed-up system which
would treble the amount of work
for each employee, and throw many
out of their jobs. The workers were
unorganized. Commissioner Wood

down and conferred with the bosses
as to the best method of breaking
the strike, but the workers refused
to listen, and they won the strike
