FISH CONSUMPTION

According to the Coordinator of Fisheries, con-
trary to belief that meat rationng has increased
civilian consumption of fish, civilians in the United
States have been eating less fish, during periods
of strict meat ratoning than they eat in normal
times when plenty of meat was available.
Per capita consumption of fish and fish products
by civilians in the United States always comparatively
low, now has dropped to 98 pounds per year. in
GLIDING fresh, canned and cured varieties.
But men and women in the armed forces have
been getting twice much.
Before the the average American ate 1873
pounds of fish each year-more than the average
Australian, far less than the average Jap who ate
SIS pounds of fish a year, the average Swede with
SO pounds and the Britshers IS pounds.

HOROSCOPE
"The stars incline
bat do not compel"
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 7

After the early morning hours,
adverse aspects are active. There
is a promising sign for men with
authority. This should aid polit-
ical leaders.
HEART AND HOME: Astrolo-
gers warn of accidents which may
be more prevalent than usual
There are i'll omens for aged per-
sons, who should be extremely care
full to safeguard health through the
summer.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Greed for
wealth will be disclosed in high
places. The seers foretell revela-
lions of graft which prove patriot
ism has had little influence on
many ambitious persons. Uncover
ing of. hidden deals is prophesied
NATIONAL ISSUES: Race pref
udices will affect political plans in
certain parts of the country but
will be under cover at the party
conventions. The stars emphasize
consistency as the most important
aim in a great democracy. While
men are dying for liberty the ma
ton must be true to its ideals.
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
Aspects of Neptune and Saturn in
dictate much discussion of foreign
policies. Many extremely trying
diplomatic problems are foreseen
at this critical time when the war
progresses with many difficulties
due to the desperation which rules
Axis leaders.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of year of advance
ment in the service of the nation
Prosperity belongs to many women.
Children born on this day prob
ably will be clever and ambitious
but caution is advisable in finan-
cial matters, for losses are foretold

Before the Americans ate some 25O00y00O
pounds year of imported sardines and about So
900 900 worth of canned crab from Japan yearly
But while the average consumption of fish is less
in this country apparently more persons are eating
fish than before. The heaviest market always has
been the coasts, but now Chicago is becoming fish
conscious. In 1899 only 100000 pounds were sold
in Chicago and last year this figure was 100000
pounds.
Most of the fish produced, of course, goes for the
armed forces and lend-ease requirements More than
half of the canned salmon produced has gone for such
purposes.

PROF. KRISTEN
 MAKES TALkAT
 CHAMBER MEET
Inventor Likes Spirit of Territory, Speaks
 on Future

Prof. F. R. Kristen, professor of aeronautical engineering at the University of Washington, inventor and philosopher, was guest speaker at the Chamber of Commerce luncheon this noon in the Gold Room of the Baranof Hotel.
 He praised Alaska's spirit of pioneering, adventure and hospital ity where a mans word is still his bond. He said that if he were young again he would make his home in Alaska.
 The inventor of the Kristen pipe and numerous aeronautical im- provements, predicted that if the western states awake to their re- responsibilities of developing their own technical research centers and keeping technicians trained in their institutions at home, the Pacific Coast and Alaska will one day out distance the larger eastern mar kets, tapping new trade sources in the Far East.
 Most of the trained technicians today leave their schools in the western states to make use of their training in the eastern markets, ne

Members of the Juneau Chamber of Commerce this noon sampled what may prove to be new Alaskan fishery product-canned halibut.

 The plates were clean after the meeting, an indication that the new product made hit. It will be put on the market this year in limited quantities.

said.
 He urged the development of re- search centers and said that pat ents originating through such study should be sold only if factories producing the article would be built in the western states.
 The patent on the Kristen pipe was released only on the condition that the pipes be manufactured in Seattle ensuring an industry which now brings a million dollars year into Seattle.
 Our present educational system is woefully lacking of the ingred- ientS with which to meet the de- mands of the future mechanical world, he said He urged more technical education, but also sys- tenn that would not produce only specialists, rather graduates with a broad conception of their en- vironment.
 Professor and Mrs. Kristen are here to attend the wedding of Miss Betty Sharpe of Juneau to their son, Gene, and will leave next Sunday.
 Other guests included the Pro- fessor's son, August Buschmann, Seattle cannery man; E. G. Whalen of the International Lions Club; Frank N.
