and the Weather Service.

Considers Fish uatcherfes, tho Canal
and the Weather Service.
The trustees of the Chamuer OF Com
merce at their weekly meeting yesterday
had an interesting discussion on the
urgency of some action to secure an appro-
priation from congress for the establish
ment of hatcheries on waters in Washing
ton.
In this connection the secretary read
letter from George T. Myers, of Portland.
dated July Is, TO Gov. McGraw, urging &C
tion on the part of the cham Der to secure
state legislation for the protection
of prospective fish hatcheries, also
to memorialize congress for an appropria-
ton 10 secure the establishment of hatch
cries on the waters of the Sound and its
tributaries. Mr.. Myers enclosed copy of a
memorial sent to congress from Oregon,
but Mr.. Myers says that. owing TO q mis-
understanding OF the fish commissioner.
he couid not give his consent to the pass
age of the appropriation asked for until the
states of Oregon and Washington had
passed such laws as he deemed necessary
10 the protection of the hatcheries, beiiey-
ing that the legislatures would do so when
they intelligenty understood what was re-
quired.
Much earnest discussion was had on the
subject OF Senator Squires amendment
appropriating sIo0 coo TO begin work on
the Lake Washington canal and every
effort of the members of the chamber was
enlisted TO secure favorable consideration
by the conference committee Of congress.
Another interesting letter was read, be-
ing one sent TO Senator Squire by Score.
