On recommendation of Superin- tendent Christoffers, authority has been given for the killing of approx imately 75' pairs of blue foxes on St. Paul Island this winter, to be taken with box traps.

 Foxes To Be Moved
 The Bureau has approved plans for transferring a number of live foxes between St. Paul and St. George Is- lands with a view to introducing new blood on each island. It is be- Heved that this may result beneficial ly to both herds.
 The Bureau has approved an agree ment made between representatives of this bureau, the Alaska Game Commission, and the Forest Service for the construction of a cooperative tive float at Cordova, to be used by vessels of the three services.
