 Aerial Base
WILL BE USED BY GRAF ZEP- PELIN IN ARCTIC EXPLORA-
 TON, SAYS OFFICIAL.

PORTLAND, June 12.-Ernest Walker Sawyer, executive assistant of the Interior Department, arrived last light from San Francisco on his way to Alaska. He will sail Sunday, making Fairbanks his headquarters and flying to various Alaska cities.
 Mr. Sawyer freely discussed the outstanding problems confronting the Interior Department, and specifically mentioned the expiration of Governor Parks term and the gubernatorial ap- pointment which must be made. He said the Graf Zeppelin will operate from Fairbanks on it's voyage of ex- ploration in the North Pole region. Supplies must be taken north on the Alaska Railroad, operated by the In terior Department.
 He said: Air traffic from Siberia and the Far East will develop Fair banks, because Fairbanks is on short route from the Pacific North west to the Orient"
 He mentioned the fact that rein deer farming has increased from 2,00O head to 350,000. Also that in the past year sixty new airplane landing fields have been established in Alaska. He said the Interior De- nartment had taken an interest in both.
 MT. Sawyer will be the guest of Governor Parks on July 4, and in- tends visiting Circle, Fort Yukon and Panama on the trip.

AKUTAN ERUPTION RE-
 PORT DECLARED FALSE

That the telegraphic report of vi- olent volcanic disturbance on Akutan Island, during which the top of a mountain was said to have been blown off, has no foundation in fact, according to information received at Anchorage.
 Worried by tre account of the erup- tien, since her aunt, Mrs. Katherine Kane, is in charge of the school there, Mrs. Henry Emard of Anchor age sent message of inquiry to the westward, and the reply from Miss Kane said the residents of Akutan had not heard about any eruption there and were not aware of a dis tul sra elsewhere in the region.

CANNING OF SALMON ON
 YUKON NOT TO BE PERMIT
 TED, SAYS FISHERIES HEAD

1uuEf AuG present AtaSkd HSNerleS law, fishing in the Yukon river for the commercial canning of salmon is not possible. and the Bureau of Fish cries cannot authorize such opera ton, 1t was pointed out by Commis- sioner Henry O'Malley in communi- cation recently received by Karl Thiele, says the Juneau Empire. The letter acknowledges receipt of Senate Joint Memorial No. ', passed by the recent Alaska Legislature, asking that commercial canning of salmon be permitted to residents in the Yu- kop river area.
 A similar measure was passed in 1927 by the Legislature and at that time the commissioner drew attention to the law regarding the matter.
 In his recent communication MT. O'Mallcy requotes the la was follows:
 @Sec. 4. That it shall be unlawful to fish for, take or kill any salmon of any species or by any means except by hand rod, spear, or gaff in any of the creeks. streams or rivers of Alas ka: OF within 800 yards of the mouth of any such creek, stream or river over which the United States has jur- isdicn, excepting the Karlik and Uga- shik rivers: Provided, that nothing contained herein shall prevent the taking of fish for local food require ments or for use as dog feed"
 The authority igiven the Secretary of Commerce, the Commissioner add ed, specifically is limited and does not include the right to allow fishing in any creek, stream, river or other bodies of water in which fishing is prohibited by the sraf provisions. of the fsheies law. fit is therefore clear that the Secretary of Commerce has no authority to permit fishing in the Yukon river except for local food requirements and for use as dog feed" he said.
 Continuing. Mir. O'Malley's letter said:
 Furthermore, it will be recalled that for number of years past, and particularly during the time that salmon cannery was in operation near the mouth of the Yukon river, active propaganda was carried on in behalf of the native and white residents of the Yukon valley to stop all commer- cial fishing in order to provide for local needs for human food and dog feed. It was then brought out that the run of salmon in the Yukon river was not large in comparison with the size of the river, and, considering the great extent of the spawning area, it was also shown that there was great variation from year to year in the size of the runs.
 Therefore, even if it were possible to modify the restrictions now in ef- feet. the Bueau would not feel that it could recommend the taking of any such action as required by the me morial"

HUNDREDS. OF ALASKANS
 ARE AFFECTED BY CHANGE
 IN NATURALIZATION LAW

More than one hundred persons re siding in Alaska who have beenlun- able to obtain final naturalization .pa- pers because theNs is no record . of their admission for permanent resi- dence at the port through which they claimed to have entered the United. States can no whecome citizens under, a>law passed by Congress at the last session. This was. pointed out by w. G, Streneh, district director of immi- grafton at Ketchikan.
 Provision has been made for legal. izing such entries if admission, oc- cured prior to Jilne B., 1921, if the alien has resided in the United States continuously since such entry; if he is person of good moralcharacter, and if he is not subject to deporta-= tion," said MT. Strench.
 "The procedure for accomplishing the legalization of these entries at this time. is an examination similar to the one which. the: applicant should have undergone at the. time ne came into the country"
 In Alaska the matter of arranging. for the legalization of these entries. IS under the jurisdiction of the dis trict director of immigration at Ket- ehikan, who has indicated taat those. interested should communicate with. him ;1d make request for registra- tion blank forms. During July or Au- gust an inspector of the United States immigration service will visit various parts soon to- conduc ct the. ex aminations.
 It is pointed. out tfia. from. the entry records to be made under. this new law certificates of arrival will be preparees- and filed in the appropriate district court, after which the matter of naturalization can be proceeded, with.

NEW HUNTING AND TRAP PING REGULATIONS ISSUED
 BYALASKA GAME COMMISSION

Game Commissions new Game Law Circular No. 6 are being mailed to all persons who hold any form of license required under the provisions of the Alaska game law, during the past license year.
 Revised regulations appearing in this circular were published on April ?, and will become effective July 1, 1929.
 To accommodate those residents of the Territory lying north of the Arc tic Circle, who must necessarily de- pend entirely upon game for their meat supply, the close season on cari- bou has been removed. The removal of this close season does not, how ever, acect the bag. limit, which re- mains at five animals that each per son is permitted to kill.
 The number of caribou a non-resi- dent is permitted to kill on the Alas ka peninsula has been reduced from two to one.
 Responsive to an appeal from resi- dents of the Kodiak-Afognak, island group for permission to protect their grazing livestock. the present regula- tions permitting the killing of the large brown and grizzly bear when such animal is about to attack or mo- lest persons or property, have been liberalized to permit resident of Kodiak, Afognak, Raspberry, Spruce and Sitkalidak, engaged in agricul- tural pursuits, to kill bear at any time or place such animal is consid cred a menace to persons livestock or property. The former provision per mitting the killing of such a bear when found within one-haf mile of residence of human habitation has been changed to read one mile, and applies to the whole of the Territory. Under their Justification as game an-- imals, the skins of large brown and grizzly bears, as well as trophies of other game animals. are: not permit ted to, be, selds-
 The propagation of fur-bearing an- imals in captivity Is encouraged by allowing live animals captured during open season to be retained alive dur ing the close season, under a permit issued through the Alaska Game Commission.
 To further protect the diminishing supplies of mink in Southeastern Alaska, the trapping of this animal in fur district 1, east of longitude 138 degrees, has been restricted to the month of January.
 In an attempt to correct a similar condition found to exist on the Kenai peninsula, where mink have become very scare in many sections, the sea- son has been closed entirely for next year.
 The close season on mink in fur district is continued for another year.
 The former separate district com prising the drainage of the Panama river within fur district 2, where a1 different season was provided for the taking of muskrats, has been abol- ished.
 Complying with many requests from residents of the Alaska penin- sula, and as the result of investigae tions of the wardens.. the open season for the taking of fox has been changed to open on December 1 and will close on January 31,. as hereto fore.
 The former separate district com prising the Seward peninsula within fur district 2, where.a. different ssH- son was provided for the taking. of,I fox, has been ahD1isheds.
