A Communication
Oakland, Calif.
June 21 1927
The Alaskan
Petersburg Alaska
Gentlemen:
The writer under the auspices of
the Biological Survey, Washington,
D. C., banded in 1926 and 1927 at
Aake Merritt, Oakland , California,
a total of 1051 ducks, as follows:
759 Sprig
143 Widgeons
136 Mudhens
14 Malard
-1051 Total
These ducks have a small alumi
num band attached to their legs
with the serial number and the ad
dress of the Bureau of Biological
Survey, Washington, D. C.
These birds have wintered at
Lake Merritt and. migrated North,
and it will be of interest to all nat
uralists and sportsmen of the Pa
cic Coast to locate the direction and
extent of flight to their Northern
nesting and feeding grounds
Already a male sprig (pintail)
and a male widgeon of these band
ed birds have been reported from
Alberta, Canada, and I would be
very grateful to you if you woula
kindly publish this letter in youi
newspapers with instructions that
other papers please copy in the en
deavor to pass the word among
bird lovers and sportsmen to inter
est them in watching for these
banded ducks anywhere in Alaska.
Also that any bands recovered be
forwarded to Bureau of Biological
Survey, U. S. Department of Agri
culture, Washington, D. C., with
full information where recovered
and by whom.
You understand the scientific val
ue of charting the flight of these
ducks and the number now band
ed from the Lake Merritt Station
should result in captures and kills
throughout Alaskan wild fowl
haunts. I will consider it a per
sonal favor if you will kindly give
this letter as wide spread publi
city as possible.
Thanking you for your interest
in the matter, I am
Yours very truly
E. A. EHMANN.

Fish Bureau -Gives
Highball To Our
Stink Factories
The Bureau of Fisheries will es
tablish a regular herring patrol in
the herring districts of the First Di
vision and wiH have them carefully
watching for violations of the laws
and otherwise assist the destroyers
of the herring fisheries to obey the
law more or less—mostly le3s.
John McLaughlin will be In
charge of the work as special war
den. The Valkyrie, Capt. Wood
has been chartered by the Bureau
for this service.
Lower Chatham Strait to Cape
Olmany and waters outside of Ba
ranoff will be patrolled. It Is
alleged by a Juneau paper that
Warden McLaughlin’s duty will be
mainly to see that herring fishery
regulations are observed by all
boats and operators generally.
It is further said that the large
increase in mild cure and reduction
plants in the First Division has
made necessary this work.
There is no law to cover the oper
ations of fertilizers plants, accord
ing to Secretary of Commerce Her
bert Hoover, aside from a closing
law. The question then is What
is this patrol going to do aside from
visiting at the canneries and oc
co3ionally burning up a lot of oil?
