BIOLOGICAL CHIEF IN
 FAVOR OF REMOVING ALL BROWN BEAR PROTECTION

q am in favor of removing all the protection from the Alaska brown bear, but 1 advocate the the placing of an export tax, or license, of $500 per skin on them" declared Dr. K. w. Nelson Chief of the Alaska Biological Survey, to representative of The Empire this morning.
 Dr. Nelson, who has just com- pleted a long trip from Nome across the Interior to Fairbanks and thence to Cordova, has talk. ed to many prospectors, trappers and settlers regarding the brown bear. His investigation, he said. had convinced him of the de sirability of taking the protec- ton off the brown bear. On all sides. he said, he heard au thentic stories of destruction of stores cached by prospectors, of the caches themselves, by these animals. He has also heard stories of unprovoked attacks on men by the bears, but is in- clined to discount the serious. ness of this side of the case.

GOVERNMENT AID NEEDED STATES
 DR. E. ". NELSON
Impressed with Need for Transportation Improve
 ments, Farms Surprise.

Two things have been brought to me forcibly during my trip tc Alaska this summer" declared Dr E. w. Nelson today. One of them is the need for Government assist ance in the solution of the trans portaticn question. The other Is the agricultural possibilities of In terior Alaska.
 Dr. Nelson, as chief of the Bio logical Survey of the Department oi Agriculture, has charge of the regu- lations for the protection of land fur bearing animals, game laws migatory birds, the reindeer indus try, etc, and has been looking into all these matters since early this summer.
 He recounted his experiences with poor steamer schedules which were not carried out. delays in sail ings of ships, the weeks it required to go from St. Michael, on the lower Yukon River as far as Fairbanks "The question of transportation he said, lis serious. To the people of the Interior it not only involves boats but roads and trails. There is need for Government aid in the matter"
 Farms a Surprise.
 It was the development of the az ricultural industry in the Territory which brought the warmest com mendation from Dr. Nelson. 'Around Fairbanks alone" he said, there are 80 ranchers actively producing vegetables and grain crops. The potato yield in that district now meets the requirements of the mar ket, making it unnecessary to ship any into Fairbanks. Excellent grain, oats, wheat, and other varieties, is being grown successfully and will eventually take care of their needs. He believes that the Interior farm CTS can supply the coast regions with much of their requirements when a suitable means of transpor- tation is available.
 Illegal Trapping Exists.
 Dr. Nelson reports considerable evidence of the existence of illegal taking of beaver and martin, which are now protected by law. My view of the matter is that although these animals are protected by the Gov ernment they are the property of the people of Alaska. By observing the closed season, they would get start and become plentiful enough to take off the restrictions and al low trapping for them for a few years, to be followed by another re stricted pericd if they again be- come depleted to an extent threat ening depletion. In this manner the industry could be perpetuated.
 Under the present conditions, ac- cording to Dr. Nelson, those Alas kans who are honestly observing the law, are being cheated out of part of their resources by the ones who are wilfully taking beaver and mar tin in violation of the law. The people who are observing the law owe it to themselves to give the officials every assistance in putting a stop to the illegal practice" he said.
 Dr. Nelson will remain in Juneau until he can get passage to the South While here he is in confer ence with Governor Riggs and A. M. Bailey. representative of the Bio- logical Suryel. The latter has com plete charge of the work of the survey in this district, making it unnecessary to wait for long dis tance action" from Washington.
