The chief signal officer OF the army has
recommended to the War Department
that Alaskan game regulations be so
amended that government officials travel
ing in the territory may kill all the game
they need for food. This is prohibited to
persons other than Indians. prospectors
or explorers.
The law al the present time works q
severe hardship upon officials Of the gov

distances into the interior. as they must
depend upon their concentrated supplies
for food when fresh game is close at
hand. Apparently. there is no way 10
modify existing regulations except by
obtaining new legislation on the subject.
Apparently. there H no authority vested
in the Secretary of Agriculture to change

only permitted TO vary the regulations
