Appears Before Ways and. Means Committee Against Bill Advocat-
 ed By Cabinet Officer

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-Delegate Wickersham has started his war up. on the Department of Commerce and today appeared before the House Com- mittee on Ways and Means and pro- tested against khe granting of in- creased power to the Department of Commerce, headed by Secretary Red field. over the matters relating to the fur-bearing animals of Alaska.
 The attack of the delegate upon the Department of Commerce is ex- pected to result in much harm to the program of Alaska legislation mapped out by the administration, especial ly that part providing for the con- struction of lighthouses and buoys along the coast and the re-mapping of the waters of the north, which is advocated by Secretary Redfield not only in his annual message but in several addresses he has made be- fore commercial bodies.
 The delegate asserts that Secretary Redfiefd does not understand condi- tions in the north and that his pow CT is already too great. Friends of the cabinet officer insist that the department is working with all it's power to better conditions in Alaska and will continue to do so in spite of the attacks by the delegate.
 Alaskans here friendly to the dele gate regret that he has opened war
