FISH SHORTAGE
 DISCUSSED BY
 C. OF c. TODAY
Petersburg Ch a m b CT Resolution on Herring
 Situation Reviewed

A resolution from the Peters burg Commercial Club asking for cooperation from the Juneau Chamber of Commerce in arriving at definite stand on the ques- ton of alleged waste of herring in the manufacture of the fish for meal and oil. was read by Secretary Frank A. Boyle at the weekly meeting of the local Cham Der at noon today.
 The resolution suggested that each chamber in the southeastern Alaska district appoint a member tG meet after the close Of the halibut season to discuss tne mat ter, and then, if possible, send a man to Washington, D. o., TO bring the question before Con gross. The Petersburg club con- tends that the use of herring for the manufacture of the meal ,s a waste that is rapidly creating . serious shortage and thus ham, pering the industry.
 On this point c. T. Gardner. member of the Executive Commit tee and acting chairman, declared that it is mistake to call tho herring meal fertilizer" "The largest percentage of the meal manufactured is used as food product and not as a fertilizer" ," MT. Gardner said. Furthermore the best grade of herring is mild cured or Scotch cured and on!y. the poorer grades of fish are converted into meal"
 Plants Don't Vast
 J. B. Caro, who recently visited a number of reduction plants in southeastern Alaska, said thas as far as he was able to deter mine there appeared to be prac- tically no waste at these plants, most of them being quite clefn. He added that because thcee plants represent large invest ment and no nasty action should be taken but should be carefully considered.
 At the last session of the Ter ritorial Legislature ar act placing tax on the use Of herring for the manufacture of oil and mell was turned down, thus showing the legislators attitude, it was pointed out.
 A communication from the Al. aska Weekly in Seattle was re- ceived asking for photographs, sto- ries, or both, featuring any op- rortunities for industrial develop n,ents in this district, to be used in putting out their annual year rook. The letter also asked for subscriptions to the annual.
 Letter From Japan
 From Osaka, Japan. was a com munication from a party who de. sired to get in touch with phoao dealer. The correspondent declared that his purpose was to introduce Alaska to the people of Japan, and he wanted pictures showing the native life, industries and so forth. Alaska is a country that is little known to the Japanese, at. cording to the letter.
 That the Alaska Road Commis sion will be in a position 70 ask for an appropriation to dredge a channel over the bar was the opinion set forth by Allen Shat. tuck, of the local Industries Com mittee. It. was reported that sus. ficient witnesses were produced at a meeting held on September 6 by Major D. N. Gillette, to give him all the information and test. imony needed to present the case at the next session of Congress which will come in December.

railroads themselves favor and those th- Interstate Commerce Commission intends to permit The attempted merger of the Philadel- phia N Reading railroad with the L,hi@h X New England, with tho Baltimore X Ohio standing in the lrar as inc godfather of the scheme and controlling interest in the Reading. Was one of the sort strong ly favored hy the railroads involved bgt deaie1 hy the l. (, C. despite the fact that the l.. X x. r.. was ori-inaly part uf the E. Sl O. sys- r,m as planned in the original l. C. C. merger plans of 1920. Since that time fhore have been changes in IL" railroad map and it is now believed
 nm.cal 10 the pubic interest to l"avr such q merger take place. At u.-'. tho l. C. (. thinks so.
 As railroads go the I@high X N,w EugIanI is small potatoes, possessing only 219 miles of track. Is importance 10 New England lies in the fact that it has trackage rights over the Erie from Pine Is land Junction, x. Y.. to Campbell Hall. x. '. CIT miles> where it affords through connection with points in New England over the New Haven railroad. That is why there are such a pIcnitulc Of coal laden cars travelling over the Wa lorbury branch line of the New Haven railroad through this city. oc approximately 5000, ,ooo tons of freight transported over the l.. & x. r.. annually. about 3,0o0,000 tons consists of anthracite for the Use of New England, and nearly 2,0Uo. .Q0o tons consists of bitumi- nous. The cement and building ma torial brought into New England oyer the line likewise is heavy.
 This line, according to the l. C.. C.'s revised opinion. is 10 remain an adjunct Of th" New England trans rortaton system, and not become an adjunct to that enlarged Hal-i- more X Ohio which is in the mak- ing. as the Wheeling X Lake Erie and the Western Maryland acquisi- ton of recent memory would indj- cate. T. is hintcd by the l, C. C. that the New Haven railroad would be the best road 10 get control ot the l.. X x. F., if control by some larger carrier Is deemed essential. Of this, however, there is no sign as yet. The l.. X \. r.. is a good divi- dcnd payer, the Reading owns much Of inc stock and the Lchigh Coal * Navigation company iS presumed 10 own most of the remainder, until q few years ago this coal company owned nearly all of the stock, There isn't enough Of it for sale for the New Haven to buy, and those own ing it won't be inclined 10 sell to tn" New Haven. The effect of the I. C. C. decision, ,hcrcfor" will be 10 have tho road remain at it's pres ent status; and in all probability the Reading will continue 10 control the railroad. At the same time the F. X c. will continue 10 control fh" Reading. No merger is allowed, but the joint ownership will remain. Some of us can be pardoned for not seeing much difference between this and formal merger, seeing that ill either case the I. C, C, would have control Of the rates.
