PACK FOR THIS SEASON ABOVE
 THAT FOR 1928
Sumner Strait Only Poor Area and May Be Me-
 cessary to Close It

While the 1929 salmon pack of Southeast Alaska will not be as large as that of 1928, it will be far ahead of 1927, in fact has al- ready passed that year, according to Henry OMalley, United States Commissioner of Fisheries who re- turned here today after an inspec- tion Of the Ketchikan district. The only poor spot in the entire Pan handle section is in Sumner Strait which has had very light runs for the past several years.
 The Southern, or Ketchikan dis trict pack up to last Saturday night was but 17000 cases below that O. 1928, and the latter year was one of the best on record, the Commits sioner said. In the southern end of the West Coast of Prince of Wales Island area the outlook was very good. Hunter Bay had 5000 cases and Waterfall 10000 cases Saturday night. The three can neries at Klawock. all reported fair packs for this season of the year as did the Craig cannery.
 May Close Area
 At Petersburg 35,000 cases had been packed up to Saturday. This is under last years figures but is largely accounted for by the small run in Sumner Strait.
 Commenting on the Sumne s trait situation, Commissioner O'Malley said: The runs of fish there have been poor for the last two or three years. It may become necessary, if this condition contin- ues, to close this particular area for a period of years to permit it to rehabilitate itself"
 Closing Down Karluk
 The Karluk River fishery will be closed to commercial salmon fish ing beginning at pm. tomorrow for the remainder of the season, it was announced. This action was due to the shortage of red salmon and to intensive fishing for the cheaper grades which has been con- ducted in that section.
 Coming to the relief of fox farm CTS in the Cook Inlet region, the Commissioner is opening an area on the lower end of Cook Inlet for beach seines. This will permit the silver fox ranchers to take sal mon for feed for their stock.
 Study Local Fishery
 The assignment of Dr. Fred A. Davidson to comprehensive study of the Southeastern Alaska fishery was announced today by Commis- sioner OMalley. "Dr. Davidson has joined the scientific staff Of the Bureau of Fisheries and will devote his time to this district. Lit tie is known about the pink sal mon and whether or not it returns to the parent stream. As it is of vital importance to Southeast Alas ka, he will begin at once a study of this species. Dr. Davidson has splendid training and an excellent background for work of this char acter," the Commissioner said.
