should secure his food from riv~ CTS wherein commercial fishing was excluded.
 You will please bear in mind that I am advancing 9 layman's opinion of the meaning of the provision that protects resi- dents of Alaska from the perni- cious interference of fish ward ems in obtaining food for local consumption. I dislike to diff fer in legal opinion with Mike and Harry, but cannot agree with them that the law means that only rod, spear, or gaff shall be used in the rivers of Alaska to catch food for local use. When Mike and Harry or .dered the closing of AnkoW h. let to catching family food by net, they knew that fishing with rod, spear, or gaff was imprac- tical, and in fact impossible, in the broad waters of the Inlet. They also knew that many diff Culties attended the taking of fish outside of the Inlet, and so it was evidently their purpose to hamper local residents in catching food salmon as much as possible. Their motive could certainly not have been conser- vation of fish, as they seemed to recognize that by rod, spear, or gaff methods, Hansen and Thayer were entitled to what fish they required for winter use. In this case they took only 31 salmon each, very small supply.

CLOSED AREAS

A means of eliminating resi- dent seiners is the closed area regulation. Saginaw Bay was closed to 9 point outside of the Bay. A trap just outside of the boundary proved a failure, so "Crisco" Henry changed, by re- gulation, the line of closed area, permitting the trap to be moved in towards the bay a half mile For the sake of conservation, the trap was moved in to a point where it could catch more sal mon. But the seiner could not get any fish from that bay.

 which the United States has jurisdiction, excepting the Kar- luk and Ugashik Rivers; Pro- vided, That nothing contained herein shall prevent the taking of fish for local food require- ments."
 Here is the true history of the case, the facts of which I have confirmed by much correspond ence with residents of Yakutat.
 In the fall of 1927 two white men, Jens Hansen and Walter Thayer, who reside with their families at Yakutat, took from AnkoW Inlet Gan area closed to commercial fishing) 62 salmon for domestic use which they Salted for winter. They did this as they believed, in strict com pliance with the law, but were afterwards a ppr e h e II q ed by Warden Pryde. The sworn state ment of Hansen and Thayer de- fOOd-the Warden Pryde keeps ] Watchman here constantly, presumably so as to prevent the residents of Yakutat to take their food fish from here. We made haul and caught 62 sal mon. These salmon we after wards cured for winters food. When Warden Pryde got hold of the matter he began to take steps to have us prosecuted. The Libby's fish Counter informed him that we had sold no fish, or delivered no fish to him, and thus we did not use fish for com mercial purposes. Yet, warden Pryde did not stop at this, but went to the Commissioner here and sought to have arranged for us to plead guilty. But the Com missioner here refused to push the case, as he believed we had violated no law, and Warden Pryde was ,thereupon taking steps to bring the case to Ju- neau for the winter, but for some reason no further action was taken in our case.
 However, on returning in 1928 at the opening of the fish ing season, Warden Pryde was more determined than ever that we residents should not take food fish out of AnkOw Inlet. He caused markers to be placed 800 yards outside of entrance to In- let which markers read that all fishing except by spear, rod or gaff is prohibited within these markers. He further let us un- derstand that any one using any different gear for catching food fish in these closed waters, would immediately be prosecut- ed. Thus the matter stands, and Warden Pryde has succeed ed in preventing us citizens and bona fide residents of Yakutat 10 take our food fish which we badly need. And Warden Pryde says he has the District Attor- ney, MT. Harding, supporting him in this move"
 Now the question of "strict interpretation of the law". un- der which Hansen and Thayer caught salmon for food arises, and although you have quoted It in your letter of April 22nd, 1929, as well as in many other letters, you have never present. led an interpretation of it in it's application to taking flood for | local requirements.".

STRICT INTERPRETATION OF THE LAWS OF TIE
 ALASKA FISHERIES By Hon. Dan A. Sutherland
 Delegate to Congress

Washington, D. c.
 May IA 1929
 Hon. Henry O'Malley,
 IU. s. Commissioner of Fisheries, Washington, D. c.
 Dear Sir
 Your letter of April 22nd, 1929, informing me that charges pre- ferred by residents of Yakutat against Harry Pryde, Fis h Warden of that district had been investigated by Agent Vim and Tt is Winn's cOnclu- sion that the charges against MT. Pryde are wholly unfoundeC and that he has performed his duties as warden in a proper and efficient manner" and that you concur in this conclusion IS before me.
 The Charges
 The charges were to the ef feet that Warden Pryde eXer ciseS his authority as fish ward en in an autocratic and over bearing manner and that he discriminates against local re- sidents of Yakutat, both white and native, and in favor of tn great commercial fishing com pany located there, and that ht has at all times exhibited dOmineering attitude toward To- cal residents. and a subservient and servile attitude to the man. agement of the fishing corpora ton.
 The Facts
 Inasmuch as you concur in the report of MT. Winn on this case. I deem it my duty to call your attention to what appear to me to be the facts in the Yakutat incident, and therefore I take direct issue with you and Mr. Vim regarding the facts upon which your conclusion is based, and I must certainly take ex- ceptiOn at this time to the statement of MT. Vim regard ing strict interpretation of the law" This phrase, "strict inter pretation of the law" is made use of so much by you and your subordinates in the Bureau, both orally and by letter, in de- fence of your organizations policies and the autocratic ac- tion of under officials, such as Warden Pryde, when complaint is made by injured residents of the fishing sections, that I be- lieve it we'll for me to call your attention to the fact that if your organization observed the laws in letter and spirit, as we'll as the fishing population of Alaska, including Yakutat, ob- serve them there would be much less discontent among the local people and much less con- |demnation of the Fisheries Bu- reau.
 maintain that the provi- sions laid down in the Acts of 1906 and 1924 are not now and never have been strictly in terpreted" by your Bureau, and that the particular delinquency of the Bureau in this respect has been right at Yakutat Bay. The policy of Warden Pryde has been to strictly interpret" the working of his own mind and rot the law of fisheries in show ing favors to the cannery man agement and bounding the local residents to the extent of for bidding them to take fish for domestic use from waters where they have always been accus- toned to take them, and it was this action on the part of MT. Pryde, aided by his assistant in autocracy, one Mike Karussos, that started this recent Yaku-

Error in Appointing Undersecre'

Corrected in Parliament.

BY the Associated Press.
! LONDON, December {.-The govern
ment's oversight in appointing one more
undersecretary in the House of Com
| mons than was authorized by statute
was rectified yesterday when bill was
passed through third reading and sent
! to the House of Lords. 1t is to tndem-
nifty the 'undersecretarieS against pay
ment Of the heavy penalties for illegally
sitting in the House as laid down by
statute.
Premier Macdonald said the error
arose through the creation Of a new
undersecretary for the dominions when
that ONCE was separated from the CO.
lonial ONCE by the Conservative gov
ernment In 1926. He recalled Lord
Palmerston made q similar blunder In
1854, which was not discovered for q
wear. When 1t was discovered Lord
Palmerston affirmed the opposition was
assigned by Providence to watch the
governments conduct and the govern
nent had a right to complain because
its attention had not been called earlier.
The error on the present occasion,
the prime minister continued, was not
discovered by anybody In the House,
"but by one Of those delightful posses
sions of the Church of England-one
Of those parish clergyman who spend
their lives acquiring interesting but out
of-the-way knowledge"
