STANDARD O|L CO. STARTS WORK ON
 SECOND B|G TANK
SMALL ARMY OF WORkMEN ARE EMPLOYED ON IMPROVE
 MENTS BEING MADE

A small army of workmen are em- ployed on the Standard Oil property at Oil point, near the depot. The first large tank, 50 feet in diameter by 30 feet in height has been practically completed, and the second one BOX 30 feet has been started. Three more tanks 3Ox30 feet will be erected, mak- ing five in all. The cement seawall around the property has been com pleted and the iron fence posts set. The storehouse and office building Is rapidly assuming shape, and a num- Der of teams and workmen are en- gagged in filling in behind the wall The approach to the dock has been completed and the head of the wharf, Is now fast assuming shape. This reaches out to depth of thirty feet of water at low tide, giving plenty for the largest vessels. Dolphins will be driven at the corners and at each end to allow boats to berth comfort ably.
 A neat iron fence will enclose the grounds, tanks and buildings, which will be painted a battleship gray, the company's color.
 The prevailing good weather has allowed the work to proceed rapidly, and it is hoped that by Sept. 1, ev- erything will be in readiness to re- ceive the first big tanker.

It is to be hoped that Congress will take immediate action to give more executive authority. In the 1 meantime this administration does not intend to sit idly by, denying re- sponsibility under the authority al ready available, but to use 1t to the fullest effect.
 This is the largest of all Alaskan in dustries, more than half her popula- tion and more than half her territo- rial revenues being dependent upon 1t. It can in time be built up to much larger dimensions than at present. If nothing Is done 1t will be lost within a few years. It is of vital importance to the whole American people as source of National food supply.
 New legislation, In order to be ef- fective, must be of the broadest pos sible order, because of the different typographical and biological prob lens of each locality, together with the differing rate of depletion of diff ferent species, and many other fac tors, the method of regulation must vary with each locality. If we would serve the primary purpose of securing a rebuilding of the fish supply and at the same time do absolute justice to the canners and fishermen in main taining the industry, and in the end gradually build permanent Alaskan population devoted to the fisheries.
 There are no universal panaceas for this whole problem in Alaska. Neither seasonal restrictions nor lim- itations, nor limitations of pack, linn itation of any particular gear or its location, are universally applicable, as every district Is problem to it. self.
 The complete suppression of can ming upon the Yukon, has already in- creased the supplies for the natives, whites and their dogs, throughout the Interior, where before the supply was insufficient, and where there was even actual starvation among the Indians and their work dogs. In other places regulations have reduced the pack Of red salmon, which are the most de. pleted and a reduction in the amount of gear that can be used by each can nery on every species, should tend to make the total pack less in proportion to escapement to spawning grounds, as are exampled by variation of methods on Bristol Bay. The regu lations abolished the whole of the ex- isting traps in Cook Inlet On the other hand independent fishermen as we'll as canners, support the neces-

sity of the great majority of the take being by traps. This is due to the physical character of the bays, as we'll as to other factors. Much expe rience will be required to evolve the most successful method of balancing the factors and securing the recuper ation of the fish supply traffic.
 All talk of definite laws, univer' sally applicable, Is nonsense. There must be variable and constructive regulations, under broad authority, Furthermore, in dealing with prob iems of so wide human and property interests. there should be established under such legislation an appropriate method of appeal to some indepen- dent commission, or authority. The experience gained under the reserves will be of great value in working out constructive legislation, and the ad. ministration has earnestly desired, and received, a great deal of con structive suggestion from the people involved In the industry.
 Create Board of Alaskans
 In order that there shall be definite machinery for recruiting such expres- sion and to secure the advice and CO., operation of the various elements of the industry and the public at large, l shall with the approval of the Pres ident, create board in Alaska to consider and advise with the depart ment as to the regulations under the reserves. Thi sadvisory board will be able to advise upon methods and grievances, and will not only rein force constructive work, but will give full voice to the Alaskan people and make impossible the deliberate mis- representation which has hitherto been current
 Our primary purpose is to restore this industry. The responsibility rests on the officials who have the authority to translate 1t into action. Pious statements, scientific discussion and political oratory will not spawn salmon. Conservation cannot be car ried out without temporary reduc- ton in the amount of fish taken, on the one hand, and without construc- tive measures for enlarged propaga- tion on the other. These are not agreeable duties, but they are part of the responsibility of public office, and 1 am confident that they will receive the support of the well-thinking men and women of Alaska, who treasure their country, not alone for them selves, but also for their children.

SECRETARY HOOVER
 TELLS IF PLANS ALASKA FISHERIES
FINDS SENTIMENT UNANIMOUS THAT SOMETHING MUST BE
 DONE-WlLL NAME BOARD
{ Special to The Gateway

Secretary of Commerce Hoover, in a lengthy dispatch to Tae Gateway, from Sitka, has the following to say regarding the fisheries situation:
 "I have now had an opportunity of consulting with scores of people In Alaska on the fisheries question; with fishermen, canneries, public officials, business men and experts, in public hearings and otherwise. There has not been a single dissent from the conclusion that there must be strong and immediate restrictions on salmon fishing. if we are to preserve that in- dustry from the same destruction that has ruined many of our National fish cries elsewhere. In fact, 1t should have been undertaken in Alaska years ago. Moreover, through the western part of Alaska, where actual measures have been taken, 1 have found unan- imous support of the Departments policy of reserves and other methods for the immediate limiting of the amount of fish taken, pending action by congress.
 The need for conservation in Alas ka has been recognized for over ten years and has been a constant sub ject of debate and discussion, and am greatly pleased to see the large measure of support given the admin istration for having substituted action for pious discussion.
 Restriction of activities naturally caused sacrifice and trouble. I re- gret that the purpose of the reserves has been deliberately misrepresented to the people in Western Alaska and elsewhere, not only as to purpose, but as to the actual methods install ed. However, the working of the re- serves for a season, has demonstrat- ed to the people the untruth of these statements.
