GARFIELD GIVES
 |. PLANS MADE ON
 FISH QUESTION
Outlines Work of Fish Com
 mission and Proposed Bill To Legislators.

It is' the ultimate plan of the Ter ritorial Fish Commission to estab fish about ten stations for bringing salmon eggs to the "eyed" stage for transplanting' to spawning strams all over Alaska, declared Charles D. Garfield, Secretary of the Comnis sion. during an informal talk be- fore members of the Senate and House Committees on Fish and Game in the rooms of the Bureau of Pub licity yesterday evening. MT Gar fields talk covered generally nearly work in connection with the propa- gation of salmon.
 Members of the committees, other legislators and others interested were first shown, through the Terri torial Hatchery, by Supt. A. J. Sprague, viewing the fish in various stages and the splendid specimens of game fish in the pools. Con siderable surprise was expressed by number of, the visitors at the hatchery and the work being carried on there under the auspices of the Territory.
 Concluding the inspection of the hatchery, the visitors were. taken 10 the rooms of the Bureau of Pub licity. above the hatchery, where for almost two hours Mir. Garfield went into the work of the Fish Com mission. In the course of his re marks he stated that in it's expert ments the Commission had devised a method for propagation by which 95 per cent of the eggs planted matched and produced fry, as com pared with 25 per cent under natural processes. He declared that the re taining pound system followed by former hatcheres operated by pri vate canneries and in other states had been demonstrated to be a fail ure.
 The Commissions experiments with stocking barren lakes with Colorado declaring that in every case it had proven successful. Specific instances were cited in a number of cases The field work of the Commission clearing out stream Instructions. the war on salmon trout, and discussion of fishing appliances were included in MT Garfield's talk.
 In conclusion he declared that the need for protection was imperative and advocated complete control of the fisheries question by the Terri tory. The Fish Commission, he stated, has prepared measure, or q code, dealing exhaustively with the situation. It was prepared, he said by members of the Commission. in conjunction with Dr. Gilbert, of Stan ford University, and he urged tha' Congress be requested by the Terri torial Legislature to enact the meas nre into law The central idea of the proposed bill, stated MT. Gar field. is to create Territorial Com mission with full authority to handle the matter.

Sutherland asking him to use his influence in the matter.
 Farm Loan Act. !
 Senator Britt stated he had re- ceived many requests for memorial to Congress relative to the extension of the Farmers Loan Act to Alaska. He reported that this matter had been reported : in House Joint Me- morial No. :, 1919. Senator Britt said he had taken the matter up with the Attorney General and found that the loan act was not applicable to Alh5ka in view of the fate of the 1919 memorial believed further consideration was unneces- sary and the question would be dropped.
 New Bills Introduced.
 Senator Collins then introduced Senate Bills Nos. 24 and 25. The first is for the repeating of Chapter 32, Session Laws of 1919 and de- claring an emergency. This is rela- tive to the Territorial Slipping Commission. The second bill in- troduced is "an act requiring trans mission of certain funds and prop Acrty from escheat estates to the Treasurer of the Territory"
 Adjournment was then taken for the day.
