marcks were advocated at the confer

A plan to call in an Evangelist
who would come to the city and with
the cooperation Of the churches con-
duet Il campaign during the Fall or
Winter was abandoned. in favor Of
an alternative pro cct.
The conference decided upon the
following program:
First that the members and the
ministers Of the churches s0Icmniy
dedicate themselves anew TO their
hivincly appointed task of cvangcl-
ism.
Secondly that the ministers OF the
various churches submit to their
congregations a plan and program
which shall bring together the
churches in a more unified effort to
bring the challenge of Christ to the
life Of our city.
The conference issued the follow
ing plea for corporations:
"The churches themselves, with
their own awakened and aroused
constituencies. should be doing the
work of bringing the gospel to those
who are not coming to the regular
services Of worship. 1t was very
deeply felt that there must be a
more hearty cooperation between the
churches themselves in this task
which is the cC.nmon duty of them
all"

THE ALASKA FISHERIES
By CHAS. D. GARFIELD

VelOpmenC OI the 1eiTlCOry ndS pro gressed in the same manner in which the Pacific states gained importance. The more easily exploited products, those which brought the greatest return from the least efforts of labor and capital, received earliest atten- tion. Furs, mining and fisheries were developed in the order named, but today, in value of production, the order should be reversed.
 Of the fish products, it is known that salmon leads all the others. In early development of the Terri tory the salmon fisheries were es- pecially attractive, as there was steady demand and an established market for the products, affordlng an occupation, covering but few months in the spring and summer, and, in earlier days, an easy catch with the fish practically coming to the cannery. Gradually the industry grew until canning and salting plants were covering the best known waters. Then came a period when there was an unusual activity and much spec ulation ending in many financial fall ures and the inevitable depression. With the reconstruction of the busl- ness many strong combinations were built up which stabilized the output and market and brought about a very profitable period. The com bined concerns are the ones practl- cally in control of the industry to- day. Of those controlling the indus trv none are residents of the Terri tory, their people take little, if any, personal or collective interest Tn Territorial or civic affairs; there is no constructive, economic or social policy involved; they come in the spring with their boats, supplies and employees, diligently engaged in the reaping of the harvest and when it is garnered, load it into the ships and depart with those who have assisted in the gleaning, giving lit tie thought to the elements which prepared for, seeded and nurtured the crop; they come and go, having reaped where they did not SOW, as though they had gathered farm crop without contributing to the preparation and cultivation of the soil.
 It has been estimated that not over ten per centum of the value of the product, including the license tax thereon, is added to the annual wealth of the Territory. True, there are places in Alaska where supplies and help cannot be ob tained locally and so long as condi- tions remain as at the present, the situation will continue. In such places the pack of fish should be so regulated as to maintain an un-

 further development.
 While new and proper legislation is being delayed the present laws and regulations should be enforced. The effort in this respect made by the controlling authority has been inadequate in the extreme. If proper enforcement had been obtained the industry would not be facing it's existing serious situation. One re- suit of the failure of law enforce ment has been the pilfering of fish traps, commonly called piracy. Those engaged in this nefarious occupa- tion have reasoned that it was no more of a crime to take fish from the traps than for the traps to vio- late the law by illegal fishing. While ore crime does not justify another, still criminality must be eliminated from all classes, as violations of the law and regulations by trap owners are seized upon with avidity as an excuse by the so-called pirates. It is believed that some cannery operators must be in league with the fish pirates, otherwise there could be no sale for stolen fish. There have been many indictments for illegal fishing and a number have been found guilty; there have been convictions for piracy, but it would have been far better to have adequate enforcement of the laws through patrol and preventive eff forts than to have so many viola tions, with comparatively small percentage of detection and convic- tion.
 Alaska has a handicap of weather conditions as related to artificial propagation in comparison with the Pacific States, but has much in it's favor in the way of unobstructed and unused streams and unpolluted waters.
 Baranoff Lake
 The result of the planting of 1,35O,OOO eyed salmon eggs in Bar anoff Lake near Warm Springs Bay, is awaited with much interest. Six hundred and fifty thousand hump back eggs were deposited in sand and gravel beds of three inlet streams flowing into the north side of the lake, October 23, 1919; 3OO,- 900 cohoe eggs were deposited at several places along the North shore in about six feet of water over sardy bottom, January 1, 1920; 100000 cohoe eggs were deposited at several places along the south shore in shallow water over sandy bottom on January 19, 1920. The last two plants were made through holes cut in ten inches of ice. The lake is about two miles long and a half mile wide with a superficial

 can be readily increased to suffi- cient proportions for handling the pack in season and find employment in other fisheries or industries dur ing the rest of the year. The great est need of the Territory today is a substantial increase in strong, wig orous, industrial workers and it's affairs should be so arranged as to attract such people to it's shores and provide them a livelihood. If the salmon industry is to continue as valuable asset and play it's part in the upbuilding of the Territory, then it must be handled with the greatest care, with due consideration for all the various elements entering into it's economy and such an adjustment of output with provision for mainte- nance of supply as will fully guar antee it's stability. A careful survey of the industry, convinces one that to preserve the integrity of the busi- ness there must be a curtailment of operations to produce the desired effect. Then will follow reduc tion in the number of plants and of operating plants in the remaining plants, gear, boats, etc. The thought seems to prevail that in the future there will be may small plants scat tered throughout the Territory in stead of the large centralized can neries. These changes will cause a serious contraction in the revenue of the Territory and some other means must be provided to make up more than the difference. The public eX- penses are growing yearly and there must be an increased yearly eX- penditure for the care of and build ing up of the fisheries for many years to come. It is an important question in any event. The extrava- gance of the past must be met by economy in the future.
 The profits from the various forms of the fishing industry have been, at times, unusually large. In the Bering Sea and Western Alaska op- erations the fishermen particularly, have often, in less than sixty days of actual fishing, earned more money than in the work of year at home. In other parts of the Territory the earning have been relatively the same. The Indians have received unusual sums and in some instances children have been better paid than adults are in the States, and at the same time the operators have taken good profits. From an economic standpoint it would be far better for the Territory that all classes have a permanent residence and en- ployment throughout the year Hun dreds of seine boats and trolling boats come to these waters for two
