FAVORSUSEOF
 FISH TRAPS : IN ALASKA

A. J. Sprague, territorial superin- tendent of fish hatcheries in Alaska, who came down from Juneau to at tend the hearings with regard to the protection and preservation of the salmon industry in the North, has very pronounced views on the sub feet which he admits may not be in harmony with the general conserva- tion idea, which seems to favor the abolition of the fish traps. MT Sprague says:
 "My opinion is that if there is ever in he any true fish conservation in Alaska the fishing with seines and nets must be absolutely prohibited
 Traps deliver the fish to the can neries in far better shape for 1000 purposes, and, having fixed gear, there is no danger of them being moved up stream to destroy the fish at their spawning grounds.
 "I realize that law of this kind might work a hardship on some hsh- ermen, but all things else being equal a man who is able to buy boat ana seines should be able to erect trap.
 MT. Sprague also said: "A law or this kind would simplify the fishing question, for if the law was passed anyone caught with seine or net would be known to be illegally hshlhs' At the present time it is imposslple to establish patrol system that would nrotect the streams, as there are De- tween twenty and twenty-five thou sand salmon streams along the Alaska coast line. As long as seine hshlhe ie allowed there will be fishing III those various streams.
 Fish caught in the streams are uh fit for food, and every fish caught III 2 trap is ble."-Alaska Dlspatch Seattle.

SAYS RENT PIRATES.
CAUSE BOLSHEVISM

Declaring that rent prohteers 10
Washington are encouraging con-
ditions which aid the cause of Boil
shevism, Capt julius Peyser, chief Of
the Housing and Health Division Of
the War Department during the war,
today made a scathlng denunciation
OF rent profteering in the National
Capital.
Many landlords here are profteer-
ing" declared Captain PeyseT. They
are getting richer and the poor are
getting poorer. IT is things like this
prices for the actual necessities Of
life-that are causing Bolshevism to
take root"
And the people who are doing it
and insist that It be done are those
who are regarded as among our best
citizens"
II know one house on Massachusetts
avenue. where sixty girls live because
they cannot have adequate, roomy
quarters, as the rents are too ex-
oTbitant."
There is just as great demand for
homes in Washington now as there
was before the armistice. There are
a few vacant large buildings. The
reason they are untenanted is because
of the outrageous rents at which they
are held"
100 Per Cent Raise Asked.
Two cases have come to my at
tention. One was that OF q police
man earning Se2 = month. He for
merly paid $40 q month rent. He
/ received notice yesterday that COM
mencing May his rent would be S3s.
Another is the cAs4 OF an cmpioye
Of the Government engraving plant.
He has a wife and Ave children. He
receives a salary OF S11S . month.
He has been paying &4S a month rent
all through the war. Today he re-
ceived word that after May ! his rent
would be 800 a month.
within a stones throw of the
White House, rents are being raised
in a perfectly heartless and unreason-
able manner"
Specific Charges.
Captain Peyser made the following
specific charges:
"1-That he has on ile in his office
letters from rich men and women who
took prominent part in the wartime
activities written to their agents re-
questinR them to double the rentals
now being charged,
"2-That the raise is from 10 to 100
per cent
'3-That these people who devoted
so much time to the alienation of
soldiers needs would hang their
heads in shame If their names were
published as showing how secretly
they sanctioned the 'gouging' OF their
tenants.
The whole situation hinges upon
what decision the Court OF Appeals
will hand down on the validity Of the
Salisbury law. The decision is ex-
pected at any time"
