CLAIMS SALMON
> OF ALASKA ARE
’ DISAPPEARING
SEATTLE, Wash., Sept. 11 (bymail)
—Alaska’s dwindling silver horde
must be built up at once if the sal
mon industry of the north Pacific is
to continue, according to Dr. C. H.
Gilbert, zoology professor of Stan
ford University, who has long been
recognized as a world authority on
the salmon. Dr. Gilbert recently ar
rived here from the North, where, as
a special assistant in the United
States bureau of fisheries, he spent
the summer studying conditions.
Silver wanderers of the sea, the
sockeye, the king and the other sal
mon, are simply being fished out, Dr.
Gilbert reports. “With every canner
eager to prevent the fish from re
turning to their fresh-water spawn
ing ground and fishermen and gill
netters catching tons of salmon trout,
which are only half-grown salmon,
^ the salmon supply hasn’t a chance
for survival,” he asserts.
Stringent protection laws are need
ed. Dr. Gilbert believes. “Man des
troyed the salmon horde and it will
be for man to build it up again if
the salmon industry is to continue,”
he said recently. “Only strict legis
lation that will close the principal
fishing grounds to trapmen and nets
for years to come will prevent the ex
tinction of the salmon. Today rivers
that once supplied the largest num
ber of fish furnish but a handful com
pared with their former amounts.
P “There is nothing that can take the
place of the salmon. This summer
in many places I saw only thousands
of fish where years ago millions used
to swarm.
I “It’s all an old, old story. We
have preached our tale for years and
we cannot convince these men who
make money enough in the big years
to afford to lose in the lean ones that
they are killing the goose and that
the golden eggs will shortly cease
to be.”
On account of important business
I shall be compelled to be absent from
Cordova for about twenty days. I
shall sail on the Watson on the 28th
of September and return to Cordova
about October 15.
