 FOR 5. E. ALASKA IS PROPOSED

SEATTLE. April 5.-Secretary of Commerce Hoover's action creating the fisheries reserve in Western and Central Alaska was endorsed by Miller Freeman, Seattle publisher. in an address before the kiawanis Club on Protection for Alaskan Salmon Fisheries"
 Miller Freeman urged an additional reserve covering Southeastern Alaska be created. He declared prompt action would save the food fish while continuation of the present regula- 5ons would rapidly deplete the sup ply which will be exhausted within 10 years. possibly five.
 'I do net cclaim reserve system or regulations made is perfect, but 1t is the only way in which to ap- proadh adequate protection.
 "The depletion of the fisheries of Alaska and Puget Sound has been going on many years, yet neither Congress nor the Washington Legis- lature has taken action.
 Fer many years the most urgent have been made be- fore both bodies. Several bills. some of a very constructive nature, and designed to be of real benefit, have been prepared for presentation to Congress but opposition has always a1isen from some quarter concluded Freeman.
