Alaska is interested in the conduct of this business for we are entitled to all the revenue therefrom. It be-
 longs to Alaska and not to the fed
 eral government. If Congress would let us have only that which is right fully ours on the same basis as the State of Washington We would not have to ask Uncle Sam for one pen ny. We would be self-supporting,
The Alaska fisherman., 1925-03-15

and we could proceed and develop our country along sane and prog ressive lines.
 Is it not enough that the record of the Bureau of Fisheries during the past twenty years is one of cumula- tive inefficiency? They have stood by, they the only responsible fed eral agency in the only district where they have complete jurisdic- tion, and have seen our country de- soiled by cannery and tray interests with regard to the fisheries, and with the seals, where they have ab- solute authority, they are pursuing a policy that will result in depletion merely to make a good showing.
 The answer to all this is the es- tablishment in Alaska the Ameri- can principal of government of the people, by the people, for the people. The Bureau of Fisheries would not function so poorly if they were re- sponsible to the citizens of Alaska for their misdeeds.
The Alaska fisherman., 1925-03-15

CSIdUllSu0U plduCS LOT SUCH WOIh III full operation. Among this number was the Treadwell Go. of Albany, N. Y., whose dressed and dyed seal skins took the first prize at the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition in 1876 over all competition there by the English dressers. Therefore, O'Malley's statement that "This in- dustry was established in this coun- try through the instrumentality of the Department of Commerce." is not true.
 The second point showing the utter folly of turning large business over to the Bureau of Fisheries as at present constituted is the important fact that although all raw furs be- gan to advance in 1916 until in 1919 they were from so to 300 per cent over the price of 1914, yet, our seal skins alone of all the furs sold in the market failed to advance a single penny in 1916, and not more than 15 per cent in 1917 and 1918. Also in 1920 when all furs declined from the prices of early 1920 to those of 1918, our sealskins fell back at one bound below those of 1914 And yet MT. O'Malley is fighting any change in the system.
 The loss under the Bureau of Fish cries plan amounts to almost four million dollars for reasons which will appear and due to this special con- tract.
 At the sale on April 8, 1922, 12,- TT skins were sold at St. Louis for $388, ,288 from which Fouke Go. de- ducted $189,549 for dyeing and dressing, and sales commission. The cost of operating the Pribiloff 1s- lands would further reduce the gov ernment's returns to $148,276.
 How is it done? The "wigs" or old bulls were dyed and dressed un- der the Bureau of Fisheries contract at cost of $2O. and $19.5O each and sold for only $75O to $16.5O each a heavy loss to the government.
 Furthermore, in previous years the seals were killed by the natives and the damaged skins amounted to 1 in ten. But in 1918 the Bureau of Fisheries requested the St. Louis firm to send "experts to instruct and supervise the natives and select the animals" whereupon the damaged skins jumped to 1 in 2. In this way, one-half of the skins were sold by the company at greatly reduced prices. But the price for dyeing and dressing remained the same.
 What income do we get from the Pribilof Islands?
 Mr. Huston, on June IS, 1922, said, "The government makes net profit of a million a year on Alaska fur seal herds"
The Alaska fisherman., 1925-03-15

ling and for the cost of administer ing the Pribilof Islands the sum of $2,384, ,67O64.
 Depletion seems to be the one thing that the Bureau of Fisheries does we'll. Facts stare us in the face and yet the Bureau seems al ways to prove that facts are wrong. When We said in 1906 that deple- tion would surely follow the methods of intensive fishing by traps and pointed out districts that were then about ruined, the Bureau pointed to the increasing case production of the canneries to prove the contrary. And indeed the production went up from two million in 1905 to almost seven million in 1918. Our answer was that this increase was at the cost of seed fish. Today the Bureau of Fisheries admits our contention.
 The same thing is occurring on the Pribilof Islands. Male seals do not sire until their sixth year, there fore the law is that 5000 males, three years old, shall be saved so that they can grow to maturity for breeding purposes. The Bureau, how ever, marks them with a disappear ing prank by merely clipping the hair instead of branding, or not at all When the new fur grows and the seals return the following year, the brand has disappeared to give place to new fur, and these choice animals are killed to fatten the "fine" showing of Henry O'Malley's department. This procedure means that no breeding seals are provided and in the course of time our seals will disappear. There will be no de- pletion for a time because the bulls provided for by the closed periol from 1912-1917 will serve to ages 15 and IT.
 What is the truth about the in come to the government from fur seals? "With the recent announce ment by the officials of the Bureau of Fisheries that the value of the furseal harvest this year is $3,OOO,- 900, the query naturally comes to mind, When will Alaska be given share of the proceeds of this indus try" Juneau Empire, Oct. ', 1922.
 Secretary Hoover now tells the Senate that the true net income from fur seal is as follows:

DEVICE.

ON PLANES
D. c. Scientists at Work on
invention Perfected for
German Ship
DOCToR sUN YAT SEN.

Washington scientists have for
several years been conducting ex.
periments similar to those which
have resulted in the remarkable
.sailless and propellorless German
steamer Buckau, experiments with
which have aroused the interest
Of the world, 1t was revealed today.
It has for some time been the
aim OF the National Advisory Com
mittee for aeronautics, in this city,
to evolve a similar device as an
air brake system for fast airplanes
to be used In landing and also as
'means Of increasing the speed.
lift and efficiency Of planes.
The Rotor device on which opera.
ton, OF the Buckau is based is
identical to that used by a baseball
pitcher in making the ball curve,
It Is explained by Doctor Joseph w.
Ames, chairman of the executive
committee Of the committee.
The propelling device OF the
Buckau is composed OF twp great
metal cylinders sixty feet high ris.
ing like smokestacks above the yes.
sci. The revolving of these cylind-
ers In wind causes an air action
which moves the vessel, just az
the spinning OF baseball results In
its being DETECTED. by air pressure
frou9 a straight line.
Principle An Old One.
The principle of the revolving
cylinder has been known to scien-
fists for sixty years, Doctor Ames
said.
IF we have a cylinder that Is
stationary and the air blows by,
OF course 1t Is symmetrical on the
two sides; but II the cylinder il re-
yolving it will hurry the air UP on
one side and retard the air on the
other side and as a consequence
there will be a partial vacuum on
one side and an increased pressure
on the other and the cylinder will
be pushed sideways.
at Is the same principle that we
see in the curving of baseball. If
the ball Is thrown straight, without
any twist, of course it will travel
in a straight direction, but IL you
give the ball a twist as 1t leaves
YOUR hand, it will be pushed side
WAYS. because thA-n is a difference
of pressure by the air on the two
sides OF the ball.
How It Works On Ship.
THAT is just what happens to
the vessel. In this case, II the
wind were blowing sideways and
the cylinders were revolving rap
idly, then there would be force
WHICH would drive the vessel ahead
and the force tending to move the
cylinders forward is about eight
times greater than the side pressure
of the wind on the cylinder"
It has been the aim Of the local
scientists to incorporate in the
front edge of an airplane wing q
revolving climber similar to those
used in the Buckau to ascertain
what effect this will have in the
lift of the plane and also what
effect a reversal of the spin Of the
cylinder would have on the slowing
down of a landing plane, where
high speed is a cause Of accidents.
Doctor Ames said.

BUFFALO, N. Y. March IA
mystery in a BACHELORS cottage con
fronted the authorities at Erie
Beach. Ontario, today following the
finding OF the bodies of Mrs. Rose
F. Kahn, twenty.seven, of Buffalo,
and Norman Mack, forty.seven.
1t was the belief of those who
found the bodies that the couple
had been poisoned.
Mrs. Kahn was the wife Of a
cigar store proprietor in Buffalo.
Mack was nursery salesman and
owned the cottage in which the
bodies were discovered. Mrs Kahn's
body was in bed and Mack's body
was on the floor beside it.
The exact cause of death will be
determined today by autopsies to
be performed by Coroner Stack
house.
Left $1,000 At Home.
Discovery of the bodies in Mack's
cottage by detectives brought to a
close a .ten-day search for Mrs.
Kahn. On Saturday, February %,
she walked out of her home wear
ing old clothing and leaving behind
her rich furs, thousands OF dollars
worth Of jewelry and $4,000 In cash
in her personal bank account.
She was last seen riding with
Mack in taxicab that afternoon.
Mack was employed as nursery
salesman by Brown Brothers, a
Fonthill. Ont, firm. He maintained
bachelor apartments in the Fort
Erie cottage for five years.
Mack's neighborB told detectives
they had frequently observed Mrs.
Kahn at the cottage.
Kahn collapsed at the sight OF
his wife'sI body in the same room
with that of Mack's. He had hur-
ried to Fort Erie in answer to a
summons from the authorities.
II can't believe it, I can't be-
lieve it," Kahn moaned. "She was
always a good woman. Oh, my
poor Rose"

It Is also to be noted that by act Of
this late Congress we have extended
certain sorts of Federal financial aid
to the government of Hawaii in addi-
ton to having already extended
them to our sovereign States.
The tendency toward the Federal
"SubsidIzing" Of States has not been
checked one bit. On the contrary.
u Is growing. President Coolidge
finds himself denOuncing that Sub.
sidizing and signing bills which
carry II in all the old directions and
In new directions also.
The political difficulties in the mat.
ter are two. In the first place the
works for which Federal aid is thus
demanded are often extremely praise
worthy in themselves. In the second
place the Democrats for the most
part do not dare to criticize the Re-
publicans for giving this Federal aid
because they themselves want an i'm
mense amount OF Federal aid out of
the rich national treasury for their
own southern States, which often
are without adequate financial re.
sources for their educational and
other development.
Here is a problem therefore which
is getting no solution in the present
