Other views in the Aleutiau war zone were included. Glacier scenes Of Southeastern Alaska were appre- ciated but Attu was most enjoyed. Father Hubbard's pictures of Attu are the best of any in existence, and were censored and released by Navy Public Relations.

 A short time ago we correspond ed with the OPA asking them if a ceiling had been placed on gillnet echoes. Their answer was as fol- lows: No price has been estab- lished for Alaska Gillnet Cohoes in our fresh fish regulation (MPR 418). The only price established for Alaska Cohoes (silver salmon) in that regulation is for troll caught fish. Wherever ceiling prices have been established for sales by pro ducers (Table Al they apply ire spective of the nature of the pur- chaser
 From this report we assumed that We were entitled to ask the troll caught ceiling price of 14& cents, less a reasonable charge for dress ing, since our fish are sold in the round. We felt that the 5% cents per pound difference was too great, inasmuch as we have sold our fish in the past for within three and four cents of the troll-caught price. Therefore, we believed that by ask ing for bids We could get a better price through the fresh or frozen market, locally or otherwise. The main reason why local buyers were unable to meet this price bid was

August 13. Is44 To the Editor:
 "I should like to present herewith fisherman's viewpoint on the pres ent cohoe situation, ie., the mat ter Of outside buyers being invited to place bids on the Stikine river tish production.
 To begin with. there are only two methods whereby the fishermen can obtain the highest possible price for their product. One is to ask the local buyer what he wishes to pay for the fish, and if his price is not satisfactory, to strike and hold cut for more money. This method we have always avoided because the fish we would lose while striking during a run would offset any pos sible gain made through obtaining a higher price. Therefore, our only alternative is to ask for bids, there by giving all buyers an equal op- pOTtunity to bid on our fish. This method We prefer, and 1t is a meth cd used in all other lines of busi- ness regardless of the nature of the product, as any business man well knows, and as We have found in the past, it has enabled Us to get a much better price for our fish.
 In asking for bids, the usual pro- cedure is to sell to the highest bid der, providing he can assure us that he is capable of handling the fish, and that he represents a reliable concern with which to deal There fore, when Mr. Nelson of Nelson Bros, a Canadian cannery, bid ten and one-half cents oyer the local cannery's bid Of 10 cents per pound for our fish, We felt that he was entitled to them. According to an article in last weeks Sentinel, 1t points out that We were gaining only One-half cent per pound for our fish through selling to the Canadian buyer. This is a direct misrepresentation Of the true facts. Since there were only two buyers who placed bids on our fish, if we had eliminated this outside buyer, We have no reason whatsoever to believe that We would have received anything above last years price, which was nine cents, inasmuch as there had been no change made in the OPA ceilings on the canned pro-

One surprising fact was buried in the conye entio s twelfth-hour items; that was the remark of Sen. Truman that he hadn't seen the President in several months, in fact not since some time in March. It gives a good idea of how rapidly Truman emerged as the eleventh hour candidate for the No. 2 spot.
 In his final press conference be- fore leaving for Missouri, the sena- tor showed he did have a sense of humor, even though weary. Telling the press corps he was tired, he asked if they would excuse him if he sat down. He had hardly reached the seat, when he was up again. Never mind," he explained, when I'm vice president, I'll be sitting all the time"

ON TElE WASHINGTON FRONT By Jack Sunnett
By Jack Shnnett

WASHINGTON = The Democrats have taken the lead over the Re pubIicans when it comes to slogan making. The trouble is, from the Democratic point of view, thaH Dem ocratic phrase-makers slap the men in their own party about as hard as they soak the opposition.
 Interior Secretary Harold l.. Iekes' reply Of .Hannegan's shena- nigans," when he was asked what he thought of the convention and especially oI the nomination Of Sen. Harry 5. Truman 10 be vice presl- dent, is already a classic.
 You and Robert Hannegan, cnalr- man of the Democratic National Committee, can almost bet your bot tom dollar that this crack will pop up in Republican campaign itera- ture in spite of the fact 1t was au- Enorized by a Democrat

Publishers Favor WPB
Control Of New5print
Until Supply Equals Al

By the Associated Press.
The Newspaper Publishers In
dustry Advisory Committee recon-
mended yesterday that the War
Production Board retain its control
over newsprint until the supply be-
comes equivalent to the amount
consumed in 194l.
The recommendation would mean
that the present newsprint limita-
ton order would be continued in
effect, irrespective of the ending of
the war in Europe, until production
is sufficient to meet all needs.
Previously the committee, made
up of a score of leading newspaper
publishers and editors, had adopted
a resolution asking that Govern
ment control be extended until
every newspaper in the United
States is assured of an adequate
supply Of newsprint. or until the
industry through this committee
shall advocate change or discon-
tinue." The new action provides
WPB with a definition of what the
industry considers IAN adequate sup
ply of newsprint."
Urges Orderly Relaxing.
The committee also recommended: {:
That Government control of the
use of newsprint should be relaxed
and discontinued in an orderly man.

Immediately available to publishers

terpreted to mean that the con-
sumption of paper be adjusted up
ward by changing the percentage
figures in the sliding scale now in
effect, but preserving the same ratio
between large and small papers as
is now used Small dailies thus
would continue to operate under a
smaller percentage curtailment than
large newspapers)
Free Production Sought.
THAT WPB seek to relax or dis
continue United States and foreign
government restrictions limiting
print paper production as soon as
war conditions permit"
Officials of WPB who took part in
the closed meeting gave assurance
that any relaxation of the news
paper order would be co-ordinated
with the relaxation OF orders con-
trolling other forest products. This
assurance had been requested by the
industry group so as to avoid the
possibility that disproportionately
large amount of pulp might be di-
verted to other paper products, to
the detriment of newspapers, when
WPB's various controls are revoked.

compromising statements OF Gov.
Dewey"
He asserted that Mr.. Roosevelt
had been important in uniting the
American people in the war effort,
had himself ready and determined
to prevent future wars by a really
effective international organiza-
tion," and had mot only been the
father of much social legislation but
had made it highly beneficial by a
vigilant enforcement of the laws"
One other issue, Mr.. Clark de-
clared, was the issue of truth and
fair play in elections. He asserted
that Gov. Dewey, by distortions
and half statements has struck foul
blows which the American people
will not approve"
Mr.. Quinn told the group that
"the only issue in the present cam
paign is Mr.. Roosevelt" and that
his reelection would forge shackles
on the peoples liberties, and put the
feet Of the people on the road to
totalitarianism." AS text for his
talk, he said, he quoted a speech
from Senator OMahoney, Demo-
crat. of wyoming, What will it
profit us if we seek to save the
whole world but lose our own free
dom?"
Defends Dewey Statements.
He defended the statements of
Gov. Dewey's which he said had
'unjustly been called distortions. "
and accused Mr.. Roosevelt of 1.-The
real distortions to the American
people"
Mr.. Roosevelt has promoted class
disunity, piled up deficits without
cutting down on unemployment, ne
elected to tell the people of this
country the truth about foreign
policy, led us into this war, and
been as isolationist as he accused
Gov. Dewey of being" Mr.. Quinn
charged .s
What we need after this war is
an America like the America We
used to have-strong, rich and free,
not country torn by disunity and
bankrupt as fourth term promises
to make it." he declared.

That the number Of pieces of
