PROTECTING SALMON STREAMS.

The attitude of the state fisheries
board in resisting an effort by the
city of Tacoma to divert waters of the
Skckomish river by hume to a pro-
posed power plant on Hood Canal near
Hoodport, is one the board will as
sumo toward all power projects or
others schemes for dievrting waters
of salmon spawning streams.
1t is contended by the fisheries
board that only during five months
of the year could more water be OBJ
tanned by the Hoodport scheme than
by locating a power plant on the Sko-
komish river where natural spawning
beds, ar cycling station, fish hatchery
and natural oyster beds could be pro-
tected
The interest the fisheries board ha,
in such cases aside from protecting
existing state property is the value of
the food fish that would be destroyed.
Thus far no official showing of the
suspected loss by the diversion of the
Skokomish river has been submitted.
but it is estimated the annual value
of salmon raised on the Skokomish
and caught by fishermen after reach
ing maturity runs between 100000
and 100000. The Skokomish river
was further protected this year by
the fisheries boards order that Great
ed crest area on upper Hood Canal
to keep fishermen away from salmon
preparing to ascend the streams t.
spawn.
In his decision upholding the fisher
les board, Superior Court Judge D. F.
Wright of Thurston county in discus
sing the question of condemning fish
and oyster propagation lands owned
by the state said: "This land is held
by the state in its governmental ca
pacity and, in my opinion, is no more
subject to condemnation than the
state capitol grounds"

far as possible all guess work will be
eliminated. Employers will 90 into
the new year knowing as nearly as
possible exactly what they must pay
end when payments are due.
A new rate card will be mailed
within few days by Director Ed.
Clifford of the Department of Labor
ana Industries. This card will show
me total amounts expected from each
Grass OF industries and will provide
Tor three regular payments-at the
END the fourth month. New In
ouStles or employers beginning new
work VIII be required to make their
hrst payment in advance. This rule
Is necessary to prevent employers
such as contractors on Temporary
jobs or road work or other construc-
tlon from evading payment or COM
plicating collections.
Heretofore irregular calls have been
made, no one knowing how much in
dustral Insurance would cost and the
ola time boards always finding at the
end of the year that they needed more
money which was provided in an cad
lustment call" issued long after the
hrst OF the new year. To clean up all
past deficiencies, Director Clifford has
issued a mandatory order that the
next adjustment call. which will be
the last the Department ever expects
to make, must be out by Feb. IS.
In preparing the new rate card, Di-
rector Clifford has had the benefit of
eight years Of experience by the old
boards which the administrative code
consolidated into the Department of
Labor and Industries.
Scores of delinquent accounts which
had been listed as "uncollectable'
have been recovered in full by Direct
or Clifford's clean up-campaign. The
Department predicts no delinquencie;
will be permitted in the future. Full
and prompt collections from all indus
tries is one of TIE essential features
of the new plan for reducing indus
trial insurance costs.
New hospital contracts probably
will be completed by the first of the
year which will result in better and
more economical treatment of in
jured employees.

COUNTY ROADS INELIGIBLE.

Many counties are seeking federal
aid for purely county roads and state
highway officials believe many people
do not understand the restrictions
place on federal moneys by Congress ).
Under the new law only per cent
of a states total road mileage can
go into a federal aid system and this
must be divided into primary, or in
terstate, highways, and secondary, or
connecting inter-county, roads. The
whole road system which is to re-
ceive federal aid must be approve |
by the L. s. Bureau of Roads, through
the Secretary of Agriculture, before
funds are made available for any pro
iect. All work must be done by the
state highway department. Washing
tors road system already has been
submitted for approval.
The highway division says as far as
possible federal aid moneys will be
distributed throughout the state,
though as it is nearly finished the Pa
cific highway probably will not be the
first road paved for its entire length
Whenever federal money is applied t.
the building of a state road, it releas-
es just that much of state funds for
construction elsewhere.
