WRONGS OF SMALL PACKERS HAVE BEEN R|CHTED CLAIMS
 OPERATORS OF CANNER|ES TO
 WESTWARD PART OF ALASKA

SEATTLE, March 28.-Any injus- tIces done small packers in the is- suance of permits for cannery opera tions in the Southwestern Alaska ficheries reserve have now been cor rected by the Bureau of Fisheries, according to M. Foster, head of the Attak Packing Company MT. Eos ter, with Otto Hofstad, of the katmai Packing Company, went to Washing. ton ceverai weeks ago in behalf of the small cannery owners to protest against the regulations and permits under the kodiak-Afognak zones of the reserve.
 He reported notifications made after a conference with Henry o'Mal ley, U. s. Fish Commissioner. He said the permit of the Robinson Fish cries Company, one of the small pack CTS, had been modified to permit them 70 fish near the mouth of karluk River, principle salmon stream on ko diak Island.
 The katmai Company will be per rnitted to buy fish from uganik, Ter TOT, viekoda and Litnic Bays, which wore closed to them under the origin al regulations.
 The one big cause of the protests made by Mir. Foster and others was tho license permitting the Alaska psukers' Association and the North western Fisheries Company to buiIo weir across the mouth of karluk River, taking so per cent of the fish uoinp into the lagoon. This privilege has been cancelled, said Foster, add ;nu that the Commissioner has issued regulations limiting them to beach seininu as in former years.
 Commenting on the situation as u now appears, Mir. Foster said;
 "The small packers feel that any injustice which may have been done them when licenses were first issued have now been corrected. In any effort to conserve fishing resources .f Alaska it is inevitable that some rody should be hurt"
