SOUNDS FROM THE INFER SANCTUM
At a recent meeting of the Alaska
Fishermen* s Union in Seattle, Mr* V/.C*
Arnold -voiced a recommendation of inter-*
est'to the people of the Bay* He said
that because of the heavy intensity of
the present-day fishing due to the fact
that we" are now using up-to-date equip
ment in every respect, the fishing effort
had reached a pitch whereby too many fish
v/ere taken and if this was to continue he
felt that the runs in the future* would
keep on decreasing, Fis solution to thin
problem was that the Union amend (assist)
the T/ihite Act to the extent that area
licensing would be permitted. This would
mean that any fisherman would have the
choice to select any district in Alaska
in.which to fish, but he coula &o to one
district oALy. After‘the selection had
been maue, he coulu not then transfer to
another district, (hev, Franklin Smith
of Dillingham who spoke at the meeting
•next took the floor and stated that he
was in full agreement with Mr* Arnold*s
remarks*)
Tht* AFTJ took no definite stand on this
proposal at this time. It wpg later point
ed out that the AS1 considers ’’area li
censes” a n effective conservation mea
sure. Difficulties such as this arise*
■when a man has designated in which dis
trict he wishes to go fishing, he can no
longer switch to any other place. Union
members who have been going to Cordova
area, then Cook Inlet and Bristol Bay
would he prohibited from continuing this
practice. Residents of Alaska who havo
previously followed up different seasons
would be restricted to one district.
