Meat Industry
 Advertising Is Modelled on Fish

Modelled closely after the success ful Canned Salmon Industry ad- V rtising campaign now entering its sixth year the meat packers of the country are now carrying on an aggressive national adver- Using campaign designed to in crease consumption of all meats in the United States.
 With an advertising appropria- tion approximately tsn times the amount used to help sell Alaska's canned salmon, the American Meat Institute is addressing it's story of the health and nutrit- i've qualities of meat to the U. s. Public through magazines to- taling nearly 40,000,000 copies.
 In addition to colorful messag es in such magazines as Life, Sat urday Evening Post, Golfers, American Magazine, Cosmopoli, tan, Red Book, Look, and other general magazines, the meat health story is being told direct ly to the nations nasal planning housewives through Women's magazines such as Ladies Home Journal, Good Housekeeping, Nc Calls and Woman's Home Com panion.
 Newspapers in a long list of cities are also carrying the meat advertisements.
 Following the salmon indus try's lead in developing banners in full color for retail stores use in tying in with the publication advertising the Meat Institute is also supplying number of at tractive illustrated banners show ing cuts of ms at.
 Government sources indicate that consumer demand for meats is already rising.
 Salmon industry sales executiv es point out that the campaign the meat industry has launched indicates the soundness of the advertising program carried on by the salmon industry during the past five years but emphasize that the. new promotion for meat as the leading protein food in creases the competition faced by canned salmon in retail stores.

Mine Expert Sees S45 Gold This Month

WALLACE, Idaho - Stewart Campbell former state mine in spector predicted that the price of gold will be advanced from $35 to SAP an ounce some time in January, 194l. Campbell gave two reasons to Substantiate his prediction.
 "One is that Britain's gold sup ply is sufficient only to carry the government to April 1, l941, so if the price of gold is not in creased prior to that date Great Britain will be unable to make further purchases of any kind in the United States after that date" he said.
 MT. Campbell also predicted that Tn January, 1941, Congress will place the limit on United States government indebtedness at sixty million dollars. That debt cannot be sustained unless thz price of gold is raised to SAP an ounce.'
 It would give the government an enormous profit on the gold bullion stored in the nations vaults and would stimulate busi ness generally although the idea is not looked upon faVorably by the bankers of the nation he said.
 The increased price probably will first be established in Lon don as it was when the price was raised to $35.

U perat or Discusses Gross Cold Tax

Carl Whitman, popular old tim CT and manager of the Nabesna Gold Mines while at Valdez re- gently and when asked by Editor Hal Selby to give his opinion on the proposed eight per cent tax ation of gross gold output, stat ed he was against any gross gold tax, whatever, as it was not an equitable taxation.
 Rather than a gross tax, Whit ham said net tax should be im- posed and when it's a case of raising more money for the gov errment of the territory increase the size of this tax when neces- sary.
 "The gross tax works a hard ship on the comparatively small operator" he explained. Tn a case like ours it takes a gross of p6OOiOOU oClOIi@ we ldll AthlSlQtl our years expenses paid. If we have to pay tax on this it means we're paying taxes on our ex- penses not our production.
 When a gross tax is made, of course it's a lot smaller percent age than a net tax. That is, they might have a two per cent gross tax and, it'd. be the same, as far as the taxes it would, yield the Territory as, probably 10 per cent n2t tax.
 I'm not talking against taxes" the mine manager made clear. "If the Territory needs the mon- ey that's the proper way to raise it. But I want to see it raised the fairest way"
