There is only dhe thing that (
will satisfy Alaskans—When
Fresident Hoover divorces Henry
O’Malley from his job and ap -
points a commissioner who will
be eminently fair to all interests,
Alaskans will foregive much of
the wounds of the past four
years. Not until then, however!
The crime of Alaskans has
been in re-electing Dan Suther
land as Delegate to Congress and
; for his fearless exposure of the
lottenness of the administration
I of the fisheries in Alaska. Alas
kans are still being punished for
their independence—but men
like Representative Wood who
gave national broadcast of his
criticism of President Hoover
through the Congressional Re
cord, is foregiven. Truly ’tis a
funny world!

PATRONIZING ALASKA
TEACHERS
-x
W. K. Keller, Commissioner of
Education has sent a circular to
the various Territorial School
boards calling their attention to
the fact that contracts will be
entered into very shortly for
the hiring of teachers to fill
vacancies. He declares that “one
cf the outstanding defects in the
Alaska Territorial school sys
tem is found in the large num
ber of teachers who each year
come to the Territory intending
to remain but a short time, and
then leave at the close of a year
or two. On the other hand, there
are many teachers now in Alas
ka who desire to remain in the
Territory and are anxious to be
placed in the Alaska schools for
next year. I believe that we are
not only justified in asking these
teachers to remain in the Terri
tory, but that we should assist
them by considering their ap
plications for positions first.”
The office of the Commission
er has on file many applications
from teachers now in Alaska
who desire to be placed in Ter
ritorial positions for the coming
year and if the various school
boards should be in need of
teachers and desire that it be
done, the Commissioner wih
send the applications for exam
ination.

SEATTLE PACKER OBJECTS
TO WELCH BILL
x
A. H. Bradford of Seattle, op
erator of a small floating can
nery in the Bristol Bay district,
owned mostly by Alaskans, ap -
peared before the Committee on
Merchant Marine, Radio and
Fisheries and objected strenu
ously to passage of the Welch
Bill which is aimed at the fur
ther regulation of Alaska Fish
eries.
Mr. Bradford interpreted the
bill as a move in favor of shore
companies to put floating can
neries out of business. He said
the fishermen of his company
exclusively Alaskan residents,
had been discriminated against
by shore companies who import
ed fishermen, from San Francis
co who called themselves “Alas
ka Fishermen’s Union.” He read
letters from Alaska fishermen,
pleading with him to continue
his cannery as the only one that
had given them a chance to earn
a decent livelihood. He further
declared that if the floating
cannery operators must report
prior to December 31st each
year as to whether or not they
will operate is a discrimination
in that the same rule is not
made to apply to shore com
panies which is an unfair dis
crimination.
The injustice of such a regu
lation is pointed out. Up to this
week it has been reported from
Seattle that the Alaska Pacific
Salmon Corporation would not
operate its canneries in Alaska
save at Port Althrop. Under the
ruling of the Welch Bill, this
company would be prohibited
from operating any of their can
neries save Port Althrop—if they
v-ere floaters—but being shore
companies, the Bureau of Fish
eries does not feel that they
should be bound by the same
rules as would govern the float
ing canneries.
It has been pointed out in
these columns that shore com
panies transport large quanti
ties of salmon from one district
into another. That instead of
transporting salmon, the float
ing canneries move their plant
to other salmon districts and
being only small operators they
do not take as much seed from
spawning areas as do the larger
shore companies. That if it is
right to prohibit the floating
canneries from moving from one
district to another, it should be
equally proper that shore com
panies be prohibited from trans
porting salmon from one dis
trict to another.
It is pointed out that Mr.
O’Malley has given his influence
personally and the power of the
Bureau of Fisheries and the
Secretary of Commerce to dis
criminate against the small op
erator in order that the large
shore companies might operate
without competition—especially
In the red salmon districts. Nor
I can any justification be made
of such federal official lending
of power and influence to vested
interests to destroy the invest
ments and earning power of re
sident fishermen. Instead of at
tempted justification, there
should be absolute condemnation
lor there is no denying that the
Welch Bill was introduced only
for ulterior purposes and not
for the conservation of Alaska's
salmon.

HAIR-RAISING DANGERS
RISKED TO SHOOT
1 REALISTIC WRECA
-x
To stage the sensational rail
road catastrophe for the feature
picture “Other Men’s Women,’
which is showing at the Coli
sem tonight and toworrow night
Warner Bros, chartered three
trains, several miles of aban
doned track and sent four hun
dred men and women into the
wild Cariso Gorge country near
t.he Mexican border.
One of the special trains did
not return. It was sacrificed to
the idol of the motion picture
public—spectacle. In the wild
and mountainous country east of
San Diego and close to the in
ternational, border between
Mexico and the United States
a^e the abandoned tracks of an
old spur railroad bed. They are
notched into the sides of the
Cariso gorge and provide a na
tural setting for a spectacular
train wreck.
It is no longer lawful to use
either standard railroad equip
ment or tracks in staging mo
tion picture wrecks. Consequent
ly Warner Bros, leased the a
bandoned roadbed and bought
the ill-fated locomotive and
freight train equipment out
! right. A spectacular railroad ac
cident requires an infinite a
mount of labor on the part of
motion picture crews and a pe -
culiar combination of natural
forces and detailed plans. The
picture, “Other Mei'.’s Women,”
which features Grant Withers
and Mary Astor and a steller
supporting cast, provides two
thrilling sequences, an acciden
tal collision between freight
trains and the loss of a complete
train in a raging mountain
torrent.
The Cariso Gorge, out of Ja
camba, is the ideal location for
such difficult sequences. With
headquarters in Jacumba the
company moved a tremendous
amount of necessary equipment
to the edge of the gorge.
Several of the scenes were
made at night, making it neces
sary to send generators and
storage batteries and truck
trains of studio lights somej
tnree hundred miles overland
from the studio.

Co-starred with the popular
■Victor McLaglen, famous for his
roistering portrayals in two of
the decade’s great moving pic
tures, “What Price Glory?” and
“The Cock-eyed World," Mar
lene Dietrich comes to the Coli
seum Theatre next Sunday Mon
day and Tuesday, in “Dishonor
ed,” an intriguing story of a
woman spy in wartime.
“Dishonored,” the story, is
based primarily on facts, the life
of one o fwartime’s most intri
guing women seret service a
gents, whose tragic fate aroused
the yorld. The romantic facts of
her life, the glittering back
ground against which she mov
ed, the suspense and conflict of
her drama are portrayed with
startling fidelity by Marlene
Dietrich, from a story written by
Josef von Sternberg, the direct
or who “found” and developed
the captivating star.
Miss Dietrich, an impoverish
ed Austrian woman, through a
chance meeting, becomes the
trusted secret agent of the Aus -
trian government in Vienna .Her
job is to catch enemy spies.
Cold to any personal interest,
she carries out her instructions
to the letter. An important
Austrian general betrays him
self to Her; his aide, a young
lieutenant escapes her net. The
story, from that point on, deals
with the game of hide and seek
between the woman and the
lieutenant, really the secret a
gent of the Russian government.
The mocking young officer in
trigues the woman, and she
fascinates him, until finally,
when she has him safely under
lock and key, her woman’s love
breaks through the veneer of
bitterness, and, in a smashing
surprise climax, she reveals her
love.
