For 1952-53 Season
Local anglers are reminded by
Tax Commissioner M. P. Mul
laney that the 1951-52 Sport Fish

and a new license must be obtain
ed. These licenses are in the form
<of a stamp and are not transfer

carried on the person when fish
ing in Territorial waters.
According to the Territorial
statutes, it shall be unlawful for
any person over 16 years of age
to take or fish for- any fresh
water, marine or anadromous fish
for sports without first having
procured a Sport Fishing license.
Fees are $1 per year for resident
fishermen; $3 for non-resident
and $3 for alien. Exempt are resi
dent Indians, Eskimos and Aleuts.
It shall be a misdemeanor to sell
or buy any fish under any license
issued under the statute.
Under the statute, power to en
force this law has been given to
the following: Tax Commission
er’s deputies, Alaska Department
of Fisheries; U. S. Fish and Wild
life agents and the Alaska High
way Patrol. The violation of the
regulation is a misdemeanor and
on conviction, an offender may be
fined $100 or imprisoned for not
more than 60 days or may be
subject to both fine and imprison
ment. Mullaney pointed out that
the Sport Fishing license require
ment is a valid Territorial law
and will be enforced.
These licenses may be purch
ased in the office of U.S. Com
missioner Dorothy B. Saxton.
Mrs. Saxton announced her
office will be open Wednesday
Thursday nights this week be
tween 6 and 9 p.m. for the con
venience of those unable to ob
tain their license during the day.
“Non-Resident"
Clarifying another point, Mul
laney said that the term “non
resident” means a person who has
not resided in Alaska twelve
months immediately preceding or
a person who has established resi
dence outside the Territory.
FWL Regulation
In answer to many inquiries
of whether salmon caught by
Natives could be given to persons
prohibited from taking fish by
Federal regulation, Holgar Larsen
nounced this week, that fish
of the Fish and Wildlife an
caught by Natives, Eskimos or
Aleuts may not be sold, swapped
or given away.
