Broad push for prosecutions of salmon packerslinked to 1918 spoilage
Washington reports indicate a wide prosecution likely for salmon packers especially in Alaska as testimony before the Davis subcommittee reveals disputes over returns of the 1918 crop. Dr. Alsberg described widespread taint in canned fish, with 75,000 to 140,000 cans rejected for spoilage and potential violations of law. He noted prosecutions were delayed to avoid interfering with government packer settlements. The push follows War Department inquiries and legal review under the statute of limitations.
