Canned Salmon Sales Spurt = After POst-Lenten Season Slump

Spurred by the attractive store display banners and national ad- vertising for canned salmon, in- terest on the part of retail gro- cers is apparently reviving after a slump of several months, a re- port from the advertising office of the Canned Salmon Industry says.
 Easing this opinion on orders received from grocery distribut- ors and retailers for the new col orful salmon store banners offer ed by the industry, the report says that the start of warm Wea- ther in most sections of the coun try is now leading to increased selling effort for cold dish in- gredients, among which canned salmon is a favorite.
 Following the Lenten period retailers apparently lost interest in pushing sales of Alaska's can ned salmon," the report states "The prolonged cold weather throughout the country undoubt

edly retarded consumption of this food.
 "The start of warm weather, and the interest shown by retail CTS in the selling helps supplied by the industry, together with the influence of current colorful salmon advertisements in leading household magazines, are factors that are brightening the outlook for summer consumption of can ned salmon"
 From the orders now being re ceiVed, it is apparent that more than 115,000 retail grocers in all sections of the country are plan ming special selling efforts on canned salmon during the sum mer months. One of the country's largest organizations of independ ent grocers is holding a summer salmon sale this month, and is planning another two week drive late in August.
 "This cooperation with the sal mon fishermen, cannery workers and packers in helping to move canned salmon into consumption is typical of the drives now be- ing lined up by the industry ad- vertising office," the report con- tinues.
 This return of grocer support for canned salmon now develop ing is seen as particularly import ant because during recent months the more economical prlc es on competing canned fish foods such as mackerel and sar- dimes have resulted in large mum bers of consumers switching away from canned salmon to these items.
 The industry advertising pro- gram for this summer has been designed to gain wider housewife interest in cool salmon meals, and to get retailers to feature salmon for warm weather meals, the report points out.
 For this summer drive the in- dustry advertising office is sup plying the country's grocery stores with several thousand dol lars worth of colorful banners to gain retailers support for can ned salmon in preference to com peting food items.

ASSOCIATED PRESS AIR EDITOR DESCRIBED HIS FIRST VIEW OF ALASKA
BY DEVON FRANCIS

Aviation Editor, Associated Press The worst part is the eternal daylight.
 The sun comes up and stays up and you walk down the main street of Fairbanks at midnight in broad daylight, knowing that you ought to be in bed and with no notion whatever of turning in. Things are going on and you don't want to miss them.
 In the hotel room I pulled a coin from my pocket and said to Joe Engerton, my roommate, If it comes down heads you get your choice of the beds"
 One faced the window, one away from it.
 It was tails.
 Are there any heads on that coin? asked Joe.
 I took the bed facing away from the window but it didn't do any good. The daylight came in through the sides of the blind, and it was useless to try to go to sleep. It was ? o'clock in the morning New York time, anyway and my sleeping hours had been

 The rest was mountains top ped with snow, spIaying out this side of Whitehorse, Yukon Terri tory, into broad, seemingly limit less valleys. Here and there was ridge which looked like a gla- cial moraine. Nobody lived there or hardly anybody. There were great expenses of green, That was kneehigh moss growing in water created by the thawing out of the grounds crust.
 That was tundra, of a sort. Technically. the Alaskan tundra occurs within the Arctic Circle which begins 100 miles north of here.

The fertility of the soil is amaz ing. Crops particularly root crops grow twice as fast in the eternal daylight as they do in the States. Alaska's prize cabbage head was grown in the vicinity of Fair banks ast year. It weighed 42 pounds.
 The Territorial government es- inmates there are 100000 sqcare miles available for agriculture, either as tillable land or for hay and pasture - a region as great as the combined areas of Pennsyl vania, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachu- setts, Vermont and New Hamp- shire.
 Wheat gives an average yield of 20 to 25 bushels to the acre. Potatoes are the chief cash crop. Matansuka valley farms look like those of New England.

It gives a man strange feel ing to fly up over Chilkoot Pass where hundreds died fighting their way from the seacoast into the interior during the Klondike gold rush into the Yukon. The trail is still there, after 40 years.

 All around are towering noun tains, row upon row as far as you can see, covered with white even in the summer.
 Just south of Whitehorse is Miles Canyon on the Yukon riv CT.
 "They come up over the pass, says the pilot, "and those who survived constructed boats. See the white down there in the can- yon? Those are rapids. A lot of them died there. The boats turn ed over."
 It took those fortune hunters weeks, sometimes months, to reach the Yukon from the coast. We flew it in six hours. Beyond Whitehorse, where many of them froze to death, I got bored with a magazine and went to sleep.
