Fur Farmers of Third Division
 Up In Arms Over Governors
 Placement of Dr. Graves

Fur farmers of Alaska, who were instrumental in ObtaininQ an appropriation at the last ses- sion of the territorial legislature for the employment of a veter- marian to make a study of fur farm problems, may protest against the assignment of the veterinarian to other work, but there is no way to compel the governor to provide them with the service which the legislature intended them to have. That in substance is the ruling of Attor- ney General Rustgard.
 Anchorage fur farmers sent 2 protest to the attorney general and in reply received the follow ing letter from Mir. Rustgard: "Uupon investigation I find that Dr. Graves has been engaged to work part of the time under Chapter 5 of the Laws of 1927 and part of the time as a veter- marian examining cattle. I do not find anything illegal in that system, for the governor is giv- en authority to employ veterin- arianS for such times or periods as he finds their services neces- sary."
 William L. Paul, Ketchikan at tOrney and former merber of the legislature, to whom the matter was also referred for an opinion, expressed the belief that the fur farmers are right about the il- legality of Dr. Graves employ ment on cattle inspection if pur- porting to be under Chapter B Session Laws of 1927." He ad- mits, however, after having been advised by Secretary Watson, that Dr. Graves was employed under the 1927 law and assigned to cattle inspection under the

l19l9 law, that there is nothine
 the fur farmers can do except
 to pass a resolution of thanks
 that the governor permits them
 to live in Alaska" He suggests also that the fur farmers might | try abolishing the Third division and joining up with the Alaska
 College"
 J. N. Mccain, president of the
 Western Alaska Fur Breeders As sociation, who acted as spokes- man for the fur farmers of the 1929 session of the legislature, contends that there was no eX- cuSe for the assignment of Dr. Graves to the work of inspecting cattle inaSmuch as ample funds were provided by the legislature to employ veterinarians to per- form the services separately, the sum of $5,000 having been appro- priated for livestock inspection and the sum of $117,5O0 for the employment of a veterinarian for fur farm work, under provi- sions of session laws of 1927.- Anchorage Times.
 It has been suggested that the governor is chaStising the Third Division for it's temerity in op,- posing the idea of making the position occupied by Dr. Graves an adjunct of the political col lege at Fairbanks. The Third Di- vision representatives who fath- cred the fox experimental farm bill wanted the station at An President Bunnel of the Fairbanks College and Gov. Parks decreed that it should be at the College. The Third Divi- sion representatives voted to kill the bill rather than permit it to be a political plaything for the federal brigade.

Bureau of Fisheries Are
 Real 0ptomists

Lewis Radclike, acting federal commissioner of fisheries recent ly said: Though salmon pack ing in Pacific Alaska waters is stil the most conspicuous single element of fish output, the New England Paddock fisheries prob ably made the greatest advance in the industry in recent years. The Western salmon fishing sea- son in Alaska turned over five million eases last year.
 Henry O'Malley head of the government fish cultural estab- lishments expects to stay on the fishing grounds in Alaska all summer. O'Malley believes the Alaska catch will be stabilized around four million five hundred thousand cases yearly. The fish cries bureau is responsible for regulating salmon catching and we are hopeful the measures taken to conserve the stock in the past years will justify them selves by maintaining, if not in- creasing the yearly runs, It is impossible to tell in advance how large the catch will be-"

THE "deerboy" may soon rival the cowboy as
a picturesque character of the wide open
spaces, If the growth of the reindeer industry
keeps on at its present rate.
No longer will the old practices carried on by
the Laplander and the Eskimo do as the infant
industry begins to take on larger proportions.
Government experts at Fairbanks, Alaska,
where the Biological Surveys experimental
ranch is operated, foresee the day in the near
future when open-range production of the REIN
deer will call for the development of the same
system in handling stock as is now applied on
the large beef ranches of the United States.
However, the time is not yet at hand when 1t

most engaged persons on a post. In addition
to conducting the religious services at a post
the preSent-day chaplain is charged with the
many ,recreational activities that are now
participated IN by the service personnel.
Usually the post chaplain takes a prominent
part In the various forms of athletics engaged
In by the post personnel and a number of
strong post and station teams In the various
lines OF sport have been developed the past
few years
1t is interesting to note in this connection
that both Col. Easterbroek and Capt. Sydney
Key Evans, chief Of Navy chaplains were born
abroad, Col. EaSterbrOok, as noted above
being born in England, while the Navy chief
OF chaplatnS was born in Wales on October
20, 1873 making him Sc years Of age in Octo-
Der OF this year Capt Evans is of the
Protestant Episcopalian faith, while Col
Easterbrook is a member OF the Methodist
Episcopal denomination. Capt Evans entered
the naval service on December 5, 1907 nearly
full decade after Col. Easterbrook entered
the service Of the military establishment.
The exceptional and distinguished services
rendered by Col EaSterbrook during the past
80 years was recognized when he was selected
by former President Coolidge to be the chief
OF chaplains on December 10, 1927, and on
April 6, 1928, he took the oath of that Office
at Washington. The brief tenure of Col.
Easterbrook as chief of Army chaplains was
saddened with the death on June IS of this
year of Mrs. Easterbrook, one of the most
beloved OF Army women Possessing charm,
tact, good Judgment energy and force, she
always was leader in her community. Her
wonderful ability to cooperate made her vel
come everywhere, and this contributed greatly
to the success of her husbands mission Mrs
Easterbrook accomplished great work in the
homes of the soldier, where her presence was
helpful, friendly and constantly sought. In
spite of her time consuming endeavors in the
missionary field and in the Sunday school
at the various posts at which Col Easterbrook
served, she was able to play an important part
in the social work Of the garrison and the
home. With her death, the great Army fam
lily lost one of the most capable, efficient and
beloved workers ever known, whose influence
in the service will continue for many years.
Col Easterbrook plans to remain in Wash
ington after his retirement on December % at
least until the graduation of his son Ernest
who Is now second classman at the United
States Military Academy at West Point, whose
graduation will take place in June, 1881. There
are four other children, as follows: Capt. Arthur
E. Easterbrook, an Air Corps officer, now en-
route to the Philippine Islands; Wilfred Easter
brook and William Easterbrook, both of whom
are living in Seattle, Wash, and a daughter

Mrs. j. Lawton Collins, wife of Capt Collins, In
fantry, who is now on duty as an instructor at
the Infantry School at Fort Benning Ga.
AS to what line Of endeavor Col. Easterbrook
will devote himself to when he relinquishes the
directing reins of the chaplain Office is not
known, but with the ever-increasing demands
now being made upon Capt Alfred C. Oliver.
the chaplain stationed at the Army Medical
Center in this city, where are located Walter
Reed General Hospital, the Army Medical, Dem
tai and Veterinary Schools, 1t would occasion no
surprise If Col. EasterbrOok would not become
emeritus of the Army Medical Center, where he
could accomplish an incalculable amount Of
good in building up the morale and faith OF
those veterans Of the Great War whose bodies
have been wracked in pain for more than q
decade. Col. EaSterbrooks tenure of Office. AS
chief OF Army chaplatns has been brief, but dur
ing that short span Of time a deep feeling of
respect. loyalty and devotion to duty has per-
neated the Chaplains Corps and his retirement
by operation of the law Is deeply regretted by
every officer and enlisted man in the service.

GETS OPPORTUNITY
DENIED HIM BY TEX
Richard Feared Clever Boxer
Would Make His Drawing
Cards "Look Silly"
BY WALTER TRUMBULL.

WEEK. nenCe at Cne Yankee Sta-
~ dium Tommy Loughran and
"A Jack Sharkey will discover
1 \ which is the better man. The
result of this bout will have a
great bearing on the future of each,
but I wonder II the general public
knows how much this match means to
Tommy.
It is Loughran's big opportunity one
that 1t must frequently have seemed to
him would never come. When Rick
ard used to sit in Madison Square Gar
den smoking long cigar and talking
enthusiastically Of some battle of the
tournament he had in mind, Tommy
was fairly frequent caller. Tex always
was glad to see him, but never en-
couraged his ambition to fight out of
the light heavyweight class
why don't you match Tommy with
some of these heavyweights?" I would
sometimes ask.
Tommy Too Clever.
at can't do it," Richard would reply.
THAT feller"-and Tex always said not
fella, but Teller. in spite of the fact
that Ring Lardner says there is no
such word-"would bust up my tourna-
ment. I don't think he'd hurt these
big guys, but he'd make lot Of them
look silly, and it's hard enough to keep
some of them from looking silly any
how. What the crowd like to see Is
one Teller swinging from the ankle at
to duck. The crowd likes hitters. That's
to duck. The crowd likes hitting. That's
why Jack Dempsey is the greatest
drawing card in this here world"
So Loughran, In spite Of the fact
that he could beat lot Of heavy
weights, and everybody knew 1t. stayed
on the outside looking in. Tex had
experienced one clever champion in
Tunney and he didn't want any more.
He admitted that Tunney was a
great fighter, but that, in a sense, was
the trouble. Gene was too mechanically
perfect. What Richard was searching
for was not a cool, efhcient, scientific
battler, but a fast, tough, fiery slugger,
who would come out Of his corner like
a charging bull. lay an adversary on the
floor and stand the customers on their
punch-that was Texs favorite mixture
Walker Bout Didn't Help.
Even when William F. Carey came to
the Garden. Loughran's chances looked
none too bright. Sharkey had out
thought and out-gamed Young Strib-
ling in the South and thus assured
himself one of the corners In the next
big bout.
Loughran had beaten a couple Of
the less prominent heavyweights. But
none of those who thought they had
a chance to be matched with Sharkey
would have anything to do with Tom
my and, out of condition, Loughran
