GAME AND FUR

We protest certain practices
of the game officers in Alaska,
Among these are
1st; the employment of men to
go among our people to bribe
them with high prices, pro-
lection from prosecution and
other means to break the law
A case in point is that of
game officer Mcdonald form
erly of Ketchikan.
End; Unlawful and violent
seizures. A case in point is
that of Albert Kokesh at
Angoon by game officer VIM
Goddard, this officer being an
especially unreasonable man.

just regulations regarding

ADJUSTMENT OF TRAPS


We maintain that there is
no body of people in Alaska
more competent to speak on
the subject of fisheries than the
Natives of Alaska, of whom we
are the representatives,
THEREFORE we know from
our experience that the sole
cause of the depletion of sa1m-
on from Alaska is the fish trap
and WE AFFIRM that the fish
trap must be abolished if the
fish are to be saved.

HERRING WASTE

The use of herring for fer
tilizer is destroying the king
salmon, which will result in
driving out our white trol1ers
from Alaska and increasing
the hardship of the Natives
therefore
We hereby ask the legis-
lature of Alaska to tax fertiliz-
er and oil made from herring
so high that such practice shall
be stopt.

FISH-CLOSED SEASON

We are opposed to the sea-
sonal closed season for fish for
reasons,
1st; Because the correct prin-
ciple of planting salmon eggs
is every week to protect the
whole run.
End; It is unjust to seiners
and gi1lnetters, because the
present open seasons have re-
gard only for the trap fish
ing, and by closing the sea-
son as soon as the trap is
thru and before the seiners
begin, the entire burden of
conservation is placed on the
Natives of Alaska and other
seiners.

Resolutions Passed at Annual
Convention

caught blue fox on the main
land or on large islands, and
though innocent of any crime,
they have been prosecuted by
the game officers and punish
ed, because of technical
guilt.
We recommend new regu1a
lions as follows:
1st; That no trappers' license
be issued in Southeastern
Alaska earlier than 10 days
before the open season.
End; That all fur, especially
mink skins, be dried with
the fur inside, this will help
to stop the practice of pit
light hunting.
3rd; Inspectors should be ap-
pointed in each town and his
OK. placed on each fur be-
fore the same may be sold.
4th; That the number of game
wardens be doubled and that
the additional officers be
selected from men of the
Native race for two reasons,
(1st) The work of the game
commission is hindered be-
cause they do not understand
how to get the cooperation
Of our people and there are
too many unsympathic white
game wardens who generate
friction. (2nd) this new corps
will create a spirit of COM

GERHANS IN CHINA

Attention is called again to the exceptional situa-

the world educational conference speaking of extra
territorialty, says
The Germans gave up everything. They now live
not IN concessions but with the Chinese people They
are the only Europeans to remain at Hankow and are
evidently quite happy though subject to courts.
Thelr prosperity is greatest argument against

boycott against them is successful and many British
firms have been ruined The British cannot possibly

UNCLE WIGGILY SAVES THE

Uncle Wiggily and Baby Bunty

Pirates so he dressed up like a Po-
lice Dog.
Then, when the rabbit gentleman
and Baby Bunty drew near to the
Pirate cave, they heard, as l told
you, shouts for help.
