BROWN MEMORIAL ATTACKS METHOD
 HANDLING SEALS
Says Foulke Company Has Monopoly and Asks Sales
 Made on Open Market.

The present method of marketing by the Federal Government of the fur seal catch of Pribilof Islands is attacked in Senate Memorial No 8, introduced yesterday afternoon by Senator Brown, of Nome. It is asked that a new system be in- augurated and skins sold in a salt state in the open market to the highest bidder"
 The memorial follows:
 Your memorialists, the Senate and House of Representatives of the Legislature of Alaska, respectfully present:
 That the fur seal of Pribilof Islands is one of the natural re- sources of the Territory of Alaska, and we believe that the profit from that industry should be covered into the treasury of the Territory or be otherwise devoted to developing the resources of Alaska.
 Your memoriaists believe that the present methods of marketing the fur seal skins from Pribilof Islands is such that the financial returns from the industry is much below what the industry, more care fully managed, would yield.
 Your memorialists believe that the cultivation, establishment and maintenance of the present system for tanning, dyeing and marketing the seal skins in question is mono polistic in character and therefore in controyention of sound govern mental and economic principles, and is causing considerable loss of reve- nue to the Government, and to the other nations which share in the proceeds derived from the sale of such skins.
 Wherefore, your memorialsts most respectfully urge that the con tract between the Government and the Foulke Fur Company of St. Louis be abrogated at the earliest possible date, and that in the fu- ture the seal skins of Pribilof Islands be sold while in salt state in open market to the highest bid der, and that any profits of the Gov ernmcnt from the industry be coy- cred into the treasury of the Terri iory of Alaska.

SUBSTITUTE F Q R
 ALDRICH CONTROL
 BILL SUGGESTED
Puts Governor on Board of Control-House Takes
 Up Pension Measure.

Senate Bill No. GA, the Aldrich measure providing for reorganiza- tion of the Territorial Executive Department, was reported out of Committee in the Senate today with substitute bill which the Com mittee on Elections and Election Laws recommended for passage. No detailed list of the alterations con- tained in the proposed substitute from the provisions of the original measure was available today and copies of the substitute were un- cbtainable.
 Apparently the principal change made is on the personnel of the Board of Control. which under the terms of the Aldrich bill was com posed of the Controller, Treasurer and Attorney General. In the Com- mittee substitute it is provided for dropping the Attorney General from membership on the Board, and mak- ing the Governor a member and Chairman.
 Other Changes Minor.
 A few other changes were made, apparently all minor in nature. The duties of the various offices are not affected from those prescribed in the original bill. Provisions for el- ection of the Controller and Treas urer are retained with the salary of Controller cut from S6,000 to 5000 and a five-year residence in- stead of two made a necessary qualification. The salary of Attor- ney General, which was set at S6,000 in the Aldrich bill, is cut to 5000 in the substitute. The or iginal bill also provided that the Controller should act as agent for the Territory on whom service of summons, notice of proceedings, etc. should be served, while the substitute provides that the Gover- nor shall act as such agent The bill will come up in second reading Monday, unless continued on ac- count of pending business.
 Take Up Municipal Code.
 The Senate's business today was largely confined to comparative study of the municipal code, Sen Gte Bill No. 3, and a similar meas ure prepared for introduction In the House. s. Hellenthal went over
