Mr. Cody discussed resolution passed
by the association board Of governors
last May providing for the creation of
additional local chapters of the asso-
citation to act as clearing houses for the
work of organizations dealing in mort
cages in the accurate appraisal of the
securities behind the loans. This reso-
luton is one of five resolutions made
at the same time by the association

study of the various economic forces
that affect the value and stability of
the first mortgage or mortgage bond.
Practically the entire program for the

said Mr.. Cody. "In addition to insur-

Kentucky Realtors to Help Owners
Due for Foreclosure,

Formulation of some plan for the

The association has agreed to name

ICE MEN WIN . HARD TUSSLE

The Ice Men from the Juneau lCold Storage thawed out just suf- ficiently. to nose out the Douglas , High school by 19-1S score in a fast and furious basketball game, played in the natitorium last night,
 Opening right off the bat, the Ice Men scored in the first min ute of play, Osborne making the goal The High school evened up the score in a very few seconds, Alex Gair dropping a pretty shot through the hoop.
 Although frequent attempts were made neither team could connect with the basket and the ball was often thrown wildly. Engstrom and Osborne rolled in a short shot leach in quick succession. Angus Gair made a short, Loftus made . short, and free throw. Gashen made a long shot. Alex Gair a short and Osborne converted two free throws. Alex Gair and Lun- dell each made a free throw and the half ended 13 to 12 for the fish packers.
 The defense frightened up in the second half and neither team had so many shots. However. only a sfewI of the attempts were con- .verted. Douglas substituted Will 1liam Cashen for Angus Gair and Hill for Lundell.
 In the last few minutes of play the Douglas boys forged ahead by hard playing but the Ice Men were awarded two free throws, both of which were converted, leaving Douglas with the small end of a 1918 score.

lations, and will vary somewhat from the dates previously in effect. The new arrangement is expected 10 secure a more even escapement throughout the area, and a some. what larger total eseapement than before. The traps eliminated will include especially those af- fecting the run to streams in cer- tain bays In this connection the comment is made that there Aas been very poor escapement on the east side of Behm Canal, where it has been considered advisable to eliminate about F traps. It is said that the past seasons escape ment in some parts of Southeast Alaska was not in keeping with the volume of the run.
 The closing dates for the north ern districts have been practically determined upon. The Icy Strait district will again be subdvided in- to an outer and inner section, the outer part being closed August 3 and the inner August 6, while the closing for Lynn Canal and the upper end of Chatham Strait will be August 10. The Tall fishing season will be eliminated in the Icy Strait district, and limited for the rest of Southeast Alaska to Oct 1 to 15, which will undoubted- ly stop the taking of fall pinks, though making it possible for small

state that not to exceed six trolling lines may be operated by any boat at one time. 1t is stated in this connection that the troll fishery has developed to alarming propor- tions in recent years. and it is possible that limits may soon be placed on the size of the boats used for this purpose.
 In general. several bays in yari- GUS sections heretofore open to fishing have been closed in order to insure an adequate eseapement of breeding salmon, although some waters heretofore closed will be open to fishing.
 As for herring, little change is contemplated at present, the only notable change being cut in the size of herring seines in Southeast Alaska, where the maximum is set at 1S0 fathoms in length and 1,200 meshes deep.
 Bristol Bay Changes
 1fhe only striking change in the Bristol Bay district is the redueti n of gill nets from 200 to 150 fath- oms, 10 apply oyer the entire area, following a similar limitation for the Nushagak last year. This will undoubtedly involve a substatial curtailmept in the relative catch of the district, and will insure a correspondingly greater escape ment, especially if the run should be light.
 A summary of the regulations received today by The Empire from the Associated Press said that the use of traps had been forbidden in the Cook Inlet, Kodiak, Chlgnih and Alaska Peninsula areas. Such step was net indicated, in tlf IT el m in ary announcement. anc probably would tend to reduce the catches in all these. districts.

Purse Selners and Trollers
 Restricted
 One of the most striking changes is action to prevent the influx of large purse-seine boats into Alas kan waters, regarding which the Bureaus policy is shown in an accompanying statement This is adopted as a conservation meas ure but at the same time will tend toward the building up of local fishe,y. It will be aceomplishe l by regulation to the effect that no boat in excess of 50 1t. in length Custom House measurement, may be used in operating salmon purse- seines; but the Boring Sea waters of the Alaska Peninsula Area will exempted from his restriction. s m additional regulation of purse-seine practices has also been under consideration.
 Action is also being taken tn place restrictions upon trolling op- erations. The regulation will pro vide that in Southeast Alaska duf- ing January, February and March, commercial trolling shall not be conducted " power boats: any commercial trolling during these three months may be carried or, only by boats propelled by cars Or sails.
