Congressman Tom Blanton, OF
Texas. arch-critic of District at

The Texan sprang a complete
surprise by appearing with two as

on the store, the tents, bath houses
and other equipment there.
Mr.. Blanton spent more than an
hour and saw the whole works"
as one of the workers there put it.
At the end Nof his investigation.
he appeared satisfied no skull

tees were being INDUCED in.
While reserved in his Judgment,
he apparently had no fault to find
with the management of the tourist
camp, or with the aides of Lieu

public parks.
Congressman Blanton departed
from his inspection before he could
issue formal statement on his
findings. but those in touch with
him believe he will give the tour.

AS a matter of fact the camp
was never in better condition than
it is today, according to officials,
and it now ranks with the best in
the country. An average of 1875
tourists per day take advantage Of
its facilities.

THE ADVISORY BOARD

At the meeting of the Alaska Ad- visory Board (invented by Hoover, Bone and O'Malley to make us think we had something to say about run ming our fisheries) they recommend ed that 38 bays where seiners fished' should be closed Gin the interest of conservation" and also that traps were to be left alone except in Icy Straits, where they were to be two miles apart.
 Commissioner O'Malley closed the seining grounds over the protest of the seiners, who said that they were bearing the entire burden of con- servation because he said, "Your own advisory board (Scott c. Bone, J. R. Heckman and their shadows) has ordered it." But he changed the two mile limit for traps to 1 1-2 miles.
 When the Natives and other resi- dents of the Chilcat country protest the unjust closing orders, Henry O'Malley tells them that it cannot be done, for the order is necessary for conservation, ard has been rec commended by the Alaska Advisory Board. But when the Alaska Ad- visory Board recommended that fish traps in the Icy Straits district be not closer than two miles apart, and the fish trust protests to Henry O'Malley that such an order will hurt business, Henry O'Malley inn mediately modifies the recommend ations of the Alaska Advisory Board, and issues an order allowing fish traps to be one and ore-half miles apart. It makes all the diff ference in the world to the Bureau of Fisheries who makes the protest.
