The Delegate has been in
formed that the Department of
Agriculture is now giving serious
thought to the preparation of
regulations for the open season
on migratory birds for 1932. It is
expected that soon after July 1st
the Secretary will announce the
conclusions reached. Assurance
is given that the desires of Alas
ka on this subject are being care
fully considered, with the pro
bability that two different peri
ods will be fixed for the shooting
of birds, to conform with the dif
ferent time of flight in Northern
and Southern Alaska. Senator
Walcott’s Special Committee on
the Conservation of Wild Life
Resources has recommended to
the Secretary of Agriculture and
to the Biological Survey that the
open season be either 45 or 60
days, between Oct. 1, and Janu
ary 15, bag limit 15; the exact
date for each State to be deter
mined by the Biological Survey
after consultation with the game
officials of each state. Last year
but 30 days shooting was allowed.

Three of Delegate Wicker
sham’s bills were passed by the
Senate on June 8th and present
ed to the President for his ap
proval on the following day. One

improving the sewerage system

(sewer system and to retire $35,
1000 of outstanding bonds which

In the effort to strengthen the
reindeer organization on the Se
ward peninsula the Interior
Department recently secured the
services of Glenn G. Briggs, of
Chicago, as reindeer superinten
dent, to report to General Sup
erintendent Ben Mozee, at Nome.
Mr. Briggs sailed north from Se
attle on the steamer Victoria,
June 2. He is an experienced man
who took a course at the Uni
versity of Iowa in animal hus
bandry, and has been employed
by Armour & Co. for the past
siy years.

Senate bill 3502 that earlier
in the session caused consider
able anxiety and discussion in
Southeastern Alaska has not
been favorably reported by com
mittee and is not likely to even
pass the Senate. The bill pro
hibits foreign vessels from trans
porting passengers between ports
or places in the United States or
its possessions, embraced within
the coastwise laws, either direct
ly or by way of a foreign port, or
for any part of such transporta
tion nor on a continuous voyage
terminating at the port of de
parture or at any other port in
the United States. It was feared
that the passage of this bill
would interfere with the trans
portation of tourists from Seattle
or Vancouver to Alaskan ports,
altho the intent of the bill was
ta effect Atlantic coast traffic.
Another bill introduced in the
Senate which has not been re
ported out, would license the
fish traps operated within the
Territorial waters of Alaska by
the Secretary of Commerce. Each
license would apply to but one
trap and would be for a period of
five years.

PRICES UNFAVORABLE,
FISHERMEN TIE BOATS
-x
Sockeye salmon fishermen on
the Naas and Skeena rivers were
keeping their boats tied up de
manding at least 30 cents per
fish. They were to have left
last week on a basis of 27 V2
cents per fish.
-x
Great Run of Reds
-x
Jubilation is rampant in Se
ward over the remarkable fine
run of red salmon in Resurrec
tion bay and the great quantities
being brought daily to the local
plant of the Seward Fisheries
which is running full blast —
Gateway.

Protests have been filed with
officials of Chile by representa
tives of the United States and
foreign governments against the
order of confiscating all foreign
ucpwna ui unneau
banks and providing for repay
ment in pesos. Pesos are now
valued on foreign exchanges at
only six cents. With their own
currency at such low value, the
Chileans are finding a way to
bring up the values without is
suing fiat money.

LIBERTY LOAN
REFUNDING OFF
-x
The United States treasury
will not accept its first oppor
tunity to refund $1,933,216,60(1
outstanding bonds of the First
Liberty Loan, it was learned
recently. Failure to exercise on
June 15 the callable feature of
i thes^ obligations, most of which
bear interest at the rate of 4Vi
per cent, has no post war paral
lel.
I The decision reflects official
judgement that the country's
’credit reservoir is not deep
(enough to permit large scale re
funding operations now, if
known requirements as well a.c
possible contingencies of the
next fiscal year are to be ade
quately met.
-x
THE UNBEATABLE MAN
-x
Commenting on hard times, a
subscriber makes this observa
tion:
“We are all up against it
(financially) at the presen
time; no sale for any kind of
fish, but even we are far better
off than the millions of unem
ployed in the States. We can live
on the products of the country
by violating the numerous (bu
reaucratic) laws and prohibition.
If they put us in jail for it they’ll
have to feed us, so why worry
about i't?”
Herein is contained a sermon,
even though it is so raw the hair
still clings to it and blood is
dripping.
That sort of a man might brew
a little hootchinoo, snipe a
moose in summer or net a salm
on in a creek, but he will not
pilfer his neighbor’s cache, nor
steal his wife.
Some of the loafers who hang
around the towns might take a
tip from this homespun sermon.

Hell Gets Defied
-x
Out of the jaws of Hell Gate
they called Charles Young and
his story was almost as good as
; his nerve. He said three men
| threw him off a fishing boat af
jter a tiff. But police said he tried
to escape a hospital for insane
on Wards Island by swimming a
stretch of the East River called
Hell Gate it’s so treacherous.

PROHIBITION IS
MOCKERY SAYS LITTLE
-x
Referring to national prohibi
tion as “stupid legislation” and
“the unenforceable law that
makes a mockery of justice,”
Dr. Clarence C. Little, president
of the University of Maine, in an
address to the graduating class
of the institution, called upon
“wets and dries alike” to unite
in the desire for its repeal.
Dr. Little, who left Maine to
become president of the Univer
sity of Michigan and now is
director of the American Society
for the control of Cancer, urged
simplicity as a remedy for the
ills which beset society.
He mentioned business, gov
ernment, recreation, education
and religion among the civilized
institutions suffering from too
great complexity.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE
-x
The Republican National Con -
vention adopted a plank in it-'
platform which will “resubmit”
the 18th Amendment to the Con
vention to the several states.
The Democratic National Con
vention has adopted a plank
which will give the several states
a “referendum” on the Question.
A good Republican asked a
good Democrat the other • day
just what was the difference be
tween the two planks and got
only a hearty snort for his reply.
It will be many a moon yet be
fore you will get your morning
“snort” or “eye-opener.” If you
wait for either party to get it for
you.
The solution to the problem of
prohibition is to elect A1 Capone
president of the United States.
Those who do not obey his man
| dates, he killed off. Under his
administration, we fear, there
would be many a funeral.
