which expects to have a placer tin
operation going at Lost River by
the end of next month.
Kadow traced the history of the j

Finds Possibilities Shrimp
Operations Alaska Waters
WASHINGTON, </P)—The U. S.
Fish and Wildlife Service says it
has found possibilities of small
scale commercial shrimp opera
tions in Alaska waters.
In a report made public this
week, the service expressed belief
its discoveries “could be valuable
during the off seasons for regular
fishing.
Citing the area in Southeast Al
aska near Ketchikan and Sitka,
the report declared:
“Possibilities for a shrimp fish
ery for large spot shrimp in the
Peril Straits region, using traps,
were found, and some areas offer
promise for small-scale trawl fish
ery for pink shrimp.”
The discoveries were made by
the exploratory fishing vessel
John Cobb last year.
sten and fluorspar in commercial
quantities found with the tin, Ka
dow said.
The company plans to utilize a
native labor force wherever they
fit into the operation.
