PUGET SOUND
 SALMON FAST
 DISAPPEARING

OLYMPIA, Wash, March r (by Associated Press). - Washington's s Salmon industry, once among the leaders in the states activities, has been almost depleted by the intensive fishing of the past six years, l.. H. Darwin, state fish commissioner, de- clared in his annual report filed with Governor Louis F. Hart
 Creation by the legislature of a fisheries commission to take full charge of fishing operations in Wash Mgton waters was recommended by Mr. Darwin.
 He urged that foreigners be barred from fishing in the state waters, be- cause, he said, the destruction, in a larg part, has been accomplished by persons not citizens of the United States. During the war, he said, foreign fishermen banded themselves together, took the lead in the indus try duu 11CIodScu Ilo pllNCo.
 sockeye salmon runs of the Puget Sound have almost been wiped out by the heavy fishing, the report said. The Silverside and Chum or Dog salmon have also been reduced in number. The Humpback salmon runs probably will be attacked by the fish ermen next and, in a few years, the commissioner predicted they, too, probably will be depleted.
 NColumbia River, Grays Harbor and Willapa Harbor waters of Washing ton have not suffered to the extent of Pug1 Sound, MT. Darwin said largely because of the greatly in. creased hatchery work But as the fishermen are beginning to take im. mature salmon and are preventing the fish from. reaching their spawn ing grounds, it is probable these waters will suffer more soon.

Delegate Grgsbys fight against the harmful pro visions in the Merchant Marine bill, as shown by the brief submitted by him to the conference, was a straight and clean exposition of Alaskan views on the subject It speaks for itself better than any commentary could hope to accomplish. It covered Alaskas fully and the fact that it was not com pletely successful reflects dscred him nor his ability as a peader. Apparently the cards were stacked against him.
 A review of the case The Empire believes, will convince all Alaskans, those politically opposed to MT.
