"Seapro-Seafreeze Processing Plant Dedication" speech draft

A draft of a speech by U.S. Congressman Les AuCoin at the Seapro-Seafreeze Processing Plant Dedication on December 20, 1978, in Seattle, Washington. In his speech, Congressman AuCoin declared the new processing plant a win for the U.S. fish processing industry. He explained how the fishing industry had previously been on the decline in the U.S., giving the example of Astoria going from 19 fishing processing plants to only two. This is one of a collection of digitized objects from the Les AuCoin Papers (MS.147) at the Pacific University Archives. AuCoin served in the Oregon House of Representatives (1971-1975) and in the United States House of Representatives from Oregon's 1st District (1975-1993).
