 At the present time, except at cer- tain streams. fishing with purse seines and drift gill nets is allowed within 200 yards of the mouths of salmon streams in Southeastern AL aska.

 F. NJ. Ball, officer in charge of the Alaska work of the bureau of fisheries has asked that the matter be given wide publicity so that all intercaed parties thew have an opportunity to express their opinions
