FISH RUNNING BETTER THAN FOR
 SEVERAL YEARS
One Cannery Reports Biggest Catch From One Trap Since
 Big Run of 1915

That practically all the canneries of the district are ahead for this time of the season, with their packs compared with the past two years was the state ment made this morning by Jno. R. Beegle, president of the Alaska Can ners' Association, and pioneer can nery man of the Ketchikan district
 One of the largest catches of fish taken from one trap since 1915 was brought in to the Pure Food Fish Company last evening on a scow, Mr. Beegle reported and added that dur ing the past two days, most of the canneries had been supplied with nearly more than they could handle
 The two great setbacks to the seas- on are the shortage of labor and the
 ack of transportation, which are hold ing up the canning industry consider ably. As MT. Beegle pointed out, all tho there are plenty of fish, the can neries are filled up with canned fish and no means of transportation or getting them out of the way. Nearly all the plants are working shorthanded cnd many are only able to use part f their lines so that it is not likely that big pack will be put up this season

 MT.

Altho there were two cannery boats tied up at the wharf at the time, the cannery company refused to help him get away and he was obliged to make the trip after much delay on small 2S foot trolling boat from Klawock to Sulzer, coming over to the portage to catch the mail boat. The delay thus caus- ed him to miss several boats north and to be late in answering his sum. mons.
