ALASKA FUR
 PRODUCTION IN 194O

During the calendar year of 1940 the value of furs shipped from Alaska totaled $1,958, ,533. This amount is $48, ,422 greater than for the previous year, due largely to banner catch of muiSkrats. Shipments of these small pelts totaled 453,330 and is the largest catch recorded since 1882. Shipment of 9,626 martens valued at S3O8,O32 also helped to swell the total and to compensate for an extremIaly poor catch of red, cross and silver foxes.
 In spite of bounty payments, the coyote catch continued to in- crease. 2,080 coyote pelts were shipped from the Territory as compared to l,5O7 during the previous year.
 Arctic white foxes showed a slight increase, 4,622 pelts being shipped from the Territory in l940 as against 4,187 during the previous year. Mink shipments increased from 42y883 pelts in 1889 to 43,702 in 1940.
 Alaska furs declined slightly in value on the market during the past year, but this was more than offset by the increase in the number of furs caught which amounted to 565,553 peltries as compared to a previous 15-year average of 392.000

What You Should Know About Influenza

Influenza, one of the most wide spread and destructive diseases of man, still remains unconquer- ed although a number of othler epidemic diseases have fallen be fore the determined technicians of modern science. Numerous fac tors ara responsible for this lack of progress in the prevention and control of influenza. For ex- ample, the exact cause has not been determined for all types of he disease. Tha short period of development without recogniz- able symptoms permits the affect ed individual to continue his nor nal routine, thereby spreading the diseas:. to many others before he is sick enough to go to bed. Isolation of such large groups is not practical. Finally, since im- munity following infection is of short duration, one year or less, significant proportion of the population is continuously suscep tible to the disease.
 Cause
 The cause of influ nza is at present believed to be filterable viruses of various strains, one of which has been isolated. When we say the cause lis at proSent believed to be" we are admitting that very little for certain is known about the cause of inf1u- enza. This unfortunately is the fact. Viruses are active agents too small to be seen with any Various other types of bacteria may cause complica- tions in the disease.
 Influenza is spread easily and rapidly. The virus is present in the discharges from mouth and nose. Coughing and Sneezing spray the infecting agent into the air. These small droplets of moist ure may be inhaled by persons nearby. There is no evidenoa that the virus is ever carried in drinking water or milk. Man is the carrier of influenza.
 Symptoms
 Symptoms of influenza are ob- served within 24 to 72 hours fol- lowing invasion of the body with the virus. Typically, it is a mons severe infection than the conn mon cold. If you have a fever and general muscular pains in the back, head and limbs, you are probably a flu victim. Such pains usually last about a week. Flu leaves the pati-nt exhausted out of all proportion to the length of time he is i'll. The most serious complication following influenza is pneumonia which may be severe and is sometimes fatal. Other serious complica- tions ara infections of the ears or sinuses, and bronchitis.
 Influenza is not to be trifled with. At the first sign of a cold and especially if you have fever go to bed and stay there until your doctor says it is safe to get up. A press release from the United States Public Health Ser vice prints that advice in capital letter. By going to bed, the pa tient may prevent serious com- plications and check th.' spread of the disease to others. The pa- tient should also cover all coughs or Sneezes with a handkerchief preferably paper. tissues which should be disposed of imm diate- ly. Visitors should not be encou- ragged.
 Spreading
 It is believed that the1fe IS more danger of spreading the disease from persons in the early stag.s of flu than from those i'll enough to be in bed or those who are recovering. In any case, un- necessary contacts should be avoided. Since few, if any, can hope to escape contact it is not rational to become panicky or to

The Office of Indian Affairs School was closed today to re- open Monday morning. The req son for this was the absence of so many of the pupils due to the flu.

Spreading

It is believed that the1,e IS more danger of spreading the disease from persons in the early stag2s of flu than from those i'll enough to be in bed or those who are recovering. In any case, un- necessary contacts should be avoided. Since few, if any, can hope to escape contact it is not rational to become panicky or to attempt to avoid infection in too elaborate ways. Experience in previous epidemics has taught some valuable lessons. Relative ly simple hygienic practices and rulAs of life are the most help full. Nhe persons who try to keep on tt\ir feet and stick it out" are thaSe who contribute most handsomely to the death rolls. In their weakened condition they invite secondary invading germs to gain foothold devel- oping serious complications.
 Tn protecting himself from in fuenza, an individual can gener- ally do as much as any one else probably more. He should avoid needless contact with others, es pecially people who are coughing

Longer Work
Week Is Urged
Eccles Vents Wage
Curb. Price Control

WASHINGTON - Federal Re-
serve Board Chairman Mariner
S. Eccles. suggesting the sdvis-
ability Of a longer work week and
curb on wages to check infla-
ton, said today he feared that
the government may be forced to
resort TO the very system we would
like TO see defeated" to insure
success of the defense effort.
81 sometimes fear that may be
possible because 1t seems that the
democratic processes don't work
too efficiently" Eccles told the
house banking committee.
He testified before TIVE group in
support of the administrations
price control bill, but implied that
it does not go far enough because
it makes no attempt to impose
a ceiling on wages or a drastic
maximum level on farm prices.
Eccles also told the committee
that higher taxes are necessary to
avert possible initiation.
He condemned strikes OF all
kinds during a period of national
emergency and criticized the de-
centralized setup of labor organi-
cations which, he said, permits
wildcat strikes
He suggested creation of a CEN
trail government agency to work
out a schedule of wages during
the emergency that would provide
a ''yardstick" for maximum pay in
various producing areas.
