Before the ill-fated trip of the Lief
Erickson from Norway, with this
country as an objective, DIR. Rowland
was invited to make the trip. After
some hesitation he decided that the
course taken by the Norwegian eX-
plorer was a little bit too far North
for Fall weather and decided not to
make the trip. His boat, the Mary,
was being rushed and he wanted to
make his Panama trip at the earliest
possible moment.
Once In Boat Wreck.
He has had many adventures aboard
boats, one being Il motor boat trip
across Europe, by way of any canals,
rivers or lakes that opened before
him. This trip went smoothly until
he reached the Black Sea when his
boat was wrecked
During the presidency of Theodore
Roosevelt, after a report had been
made seriously condemning the ad
ministration of the work at the
Panama Canal. DR.. Rawland was re-
quested by Roosevelt to go to the
Canal Zone and investigate conditions
and report to him. DIR. Rowland's s
report was almost the opposite Of
the other in its findings.
At the time of this visit he formed
the wish of sailing his own boat
through the canal This thought has
been in his mind more or less ever
since and now he has set out to make
it reality.
The trip down the coast offers many
hazards at this time of year and for

DIRECT ACTION TO END
CHINESE INFLUX SEEN
Mexican States Will Take Matter
in Own Hands, Senator
Predicts.
Rv the Associafed Press

by lne Associated PreSS.
MEXICO CITY, December 19.-Di-
rect action against Chinese residing
in Sinaloa was forecast by Senator
Rivas of Sinaloa, when the Sem
ate rejected demand from the
Legislators of Sonora, Sinaloa and
Guanajuato for the absolute pro-
hibition of Chinese immigration into
their states and Lower California,
owing to the harmful competition suf-
fered by Mexican workers.
The Senate's decision was taken
after hearing Foreign Secretary
Saenz and Undersecretary Ortega,
both of whom declared the proposed
measure would violate existing treaty
arrangements. Secretary Saenz in
formed the Senators that immigration
could be restricted, but not pro-
hibited, as the treaty had the force
of constitutional law.
An organization known as the Ma
tional Anti-Chinese League has in
augurated a campaign for the pres
entation to President Gales of pc
tition protesting against Chinese i'm
migration. 1t also plans drive
against the Chinese opium and gam
bling dens in the federal districts.

PORTLAND, Me, December ia
4l-foot ketch, the Mary, beat her way
into port here, completing her first
leg of a 5.000-mile cruise which her
crew of two expect to take them to
Central and South America. She
sailed from Bootbbay Harbor yesterday
morning. DR.. Henry c. Rowland of
Washington, d. c., and Richard Mat
thews Hallett of Boothbay Harbor,
writer's and investigators in the field
of ethnology and ornithology, are
the crew.
The scientists expect TO work their
way along the Atlantic coast to Nor
folk, Va, thence to the Bahamas and
TO the French West Indies, then
turning toward the coast of Central
and South America.
The ketch, designed by DR.. Row
land. was built with a draft of but

ers to pick their way through the
shallow waters surrounding the is

1882 Massachusetts avenue has start
ed out on a hazardous trip that Will
take him we'll out to sea and down
the coast. through the Panama Canal,
and then wherever his fancy leads
him.
Accompanied by Richard Mathews
Hallet of Booth Bay Harbor, DIR. Row
land, after casting off, started out for
the Gulf Stream, which he hopes to
follow down the coast.
His little Sailboat, about the width
of two row houses, is equipped with
an auxiliary motor to send him along
when the winds prove contrary or
lacking The ketch was constructed
especially for this trip at Booth Bay
Harbor by the same company that
built the boat used by Donald MacMil-
Ian, the Arctic explorer. 1t has a
draft Of only four and a half feet,
which will enable DR.. Rowland to
get in around the islands OF the Car
ibbean Sea. which he expects to visit
while on the trip.
Starting out with no definite object
other than to sail his boat through
the canal, DIR. Rowland has laid plans
for his trip>to cover an indeterminate
period of five months to year. Mr.
Hallet is his only companion on the
trip.

at Yale. and took up surgery after
his graduation at Polytechnic Hospital
in New York City. When the Span

The Alaska fisherman., 1924-02-15

H. R. Shepard voted $8O,OOO for hatcheries and introduced a bill to double the old age pensions. But "Shep" did not ask for any increase in the pension appropriation and consequently, the pioneers must go without.
 The Indians say the reason why hatchery fish don't come back is be- cause they can't find the box if which they were born.

on a public utility should be required to publish their financial statements at least once every year, including the original investment, any addi- tion of capital thereto, the amount and rate of dividends. the names of all stockholders holding one per cent or more of the stock, and that the profit on such corporations should be limited to not more than 12 per cent.
 Take the Light and Power Com pany of Ketchikan. Nobody knows how much money mas been invested in it's business, or what it's profits have been. This company exists be- cause this city has given it an ex- elusive franchise and thus shuts all competitors out of this field. It uses the streets supported by public taxes. It fixes it's own rate for it's service, and makes the most arbi- trary decisions from which the ordi- nary citizen cannot appeal. And yet, the public, which has given them the exclusive right to furnish light and power in Ketchikan has no way of knowing whether the rates charg ed are fair or exorbitant. Does the Company make a profit of 10 per cent Or 100 per cent yearly?
 I believe that the mines are not paying a fair proportion of the cost of government. Mines are taxed only in the event the business shows a profit of at least S5,0O0.00, and then only 1 per cent for an amount above that. Mines making a profit of $1,00O,000 annually pay tax of only $1O,OOO to this Territory. Let the system of taxation be uniform. and let all citizens be taxed equally.
 I believe that government is a business and that there is no more excuse for waste in government than there is in a regular business.
 For this reason I am opposed to fish hatcheries as at present con ducted. The advocates of hatcheries have been in control for seven years and have spent $25O,OOO, and yet they cannot show that a single fish hatch ed by them has returned to any creek in Alaska. Fish at S25O,OOO each are too expensive for tin cans.
 We give them money to bring back salmon to our streams. They prove their right to exist by showing us what fine buildings they have built and how many million eggs they

 People who have known me from my earliest childhood, know that have not changed in character during all this time. On account of my present views, Cannerymen, Trap men, Capitalists, and their depend ents call me a Dangerous Man.; a Radical; a Boss. My so-called radicalism is nothing more than the application of the Golden Rule" to the practical affairs of government.
 I stand for Home Rule in Alaska because no other political principle better expresses the American idea of government "Government by ana with the consent of the governed; "For the people, by the people, and of the people," These and many other phrases only illustrate the point that the real source of gov ernment in America is the People expressed by them directly through the ballot.
 I believe that every problem of AL aska will be solved if we could have Home Rule. At any rate, no citizen can kick at the solution of problems when it is done "by majority vote." The fisheries problem would be handl- ed in this way. l personally believe %Io4 Of c1 +ho abolishment of traps, and base my opinion on a wide and practical eX- perience in the actual business of fishing and observation of the opera ticn of traps and seines on the fish ing grounds. I maintain that my critics are entirely "expert canners" perience with fish in the waters of Alaska, outside of cooking and sell ing fish in cans, or by studying them in textbooks.
 I believe in publicity for every let ter or document filed with our pub lie officers except in criminal pros ecution. No public official should have secrets" and the public should be invited to every conference" Last fall, shortly after Eagle Buschmann was found with a case of whiskey in his stateroom, there was con- ference between the Captain of the Revenue Cutter, District Attorney Shouo and Buschmann. I don't know what went on, but I maintain that such conferences have a tendency to destroy our faith in the integrity of our public officials.
