About this listen
#130: The Iron Chink revolutionized the salmon canning industry. It increased cannery profits by throwing thousands of hard working Asian immigrants out of work. The machine made inventor Edmund A. Smith rich. Smith would not live to enjoy his wealth. He perished in a fiery car accident while on his way to the 1909 Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition.
