The methods by which these things best be done, the regulatve details in all phases of the measure, and all minor questions matters for discussion and consideration. For that very purpose Delegate Sulzer had copies of his bill printed and freely distributed, and with them wrote letters asking for criticism and suggestions. For that purpose, among others, he has secured hearings by the Fisheries Bureau in Alaska where testimony may be taken.
