Big Seven'' of Alaska
 Packers Issue Statement

Alaska packers will make no ef- fort to have the fall salmon fishing season, closed by Henry O'Malley, federal commissioner of fisheries, re- opened. Instead they will gather all information concerning the run of the fish, when it started, the size of it, the number of fish which have reached or will reach the spawning grounds in the streams and rivers of Southeastern Alaska, the fish in the bays and straits and the time that the peak of the run, if there is a belated run reaches the coastline.
 This was decided at meeting of representative Alaska packers held at the Olympic Hotel recently Thirty-fve packers were represented. The meeting was held behind clos ed doors, and a special committee of seven was named with H. B. Friele, vice president of the Nakat Packing Corporation, as chairman to issue a statement relative to the action taken.
 Compare Notes
 The packers met and compared notes The question of protesting the action of MT. O'Malley in clos. ing the fall season was not form ally considered.
 ''That is closed incident" MT. Friele said. "Mr. O'Malley has an- nounced that the season is closed That ends the question. The pack CTS did not discuss this phase of the situation because it is something not at issue at our meeting"
 The packers discovered that re- ports from their stations in north ern waters were not unanimous. Some stations reported salmon run ming thirty days late. Others re- ported no fish.
 With these reports before them, the packers decided to notify their Alaska stations to start gathering the desired data so 1t would be available for future reference in case a similar situation ever con-
