Quick Freezing
Preserves Fish
f» •
Quick freezing extra fish, salmon
in particular, is a good way to pre
serve them for future use, says Co
lumbia County Extension Agent Mar
garet Allyn.
Cut up the fish in the desired size
pieces and place in suitable con
tainers. Place in freezer and freeze
the fish solid before adding water.
After the fish is frozen solid, fill the
container with water so all portions
of the fish are covered with at least
one half inch of water and freeze.
When both the fish and the water
are placed in the container at the
some time, the fish freezes very
slowly and large ice crystals are
formed in the flesh. When the fish
is thawed the ice crystals melt, mak
ing the flesh soft and flabby — and
some of the good juices are last.
Quick freezing fish in airtight bags
is also a good way to preserve extra
fish. It is fast, takes less freezer
space, and if the bag is air tight,
will preserve the fish at least for
six months.

THE VERNONIA EAGLE {

The state AFL-CIO’s renewed voter
registration effort and its education
al campaign on Ballot Measure No.
3 to amend the state workmen’s com
pensation (job-injury) law was car
ried to the Columbia County Labor
Council, AFL-CIO meeting here Wed
nesday evening, August 19.
Don Cadwell, special representa
tive of the Oregon AFL-CIO, describ
ed to delegates the place that the
state AFL-CIO, the county and area
labor councils, such as the Columbia
county body and local unions, play
in the voter registration drive and
the Ballot Measure No. 3 education
al campaign.
Cadwell informed the delegates of
what is contained in the ballot meas
ure to be voted upon at the Novem
ber 3 general election. Briefly, this
is what is involved. The protection ot
the present exclusive state work
men’s compensation law would be
extended to some 200,000 employed
persons in the state not now covereo
by it, increase benefits generally by
18.5 percent, extend the time for
which an injured workman can ap
ply for increased compensation from
the present two to five years, free
employers from suit under the em
ployers’ liability act, permit employ
ers to insure jointly and increase
the benefits of those injured in earli
er years.
Cadwell referred to a study made
of administrative costs of insurance
coverage for workmen under private
auspices and the cost, paid out of
the employer’s premium dollar, un
der state coverage. This study, he
said, revealed that whereas some 38
cents of the premium dollar went
for administrative costs under pri
vate insurance, the administrative
cost paid out of the employer’s prem
ium dollar under state coverage was
only seven cents.
