REPORTER MAKES SCOOP

Twas in the town of Peters burg and the last week of Aug ust that news was somewhat scare. So, when the whir of the engine of an airplane was heard, the spar reporter of a nosey pub lication of Petersburg rushed out of the shop and down to the docks. Pencil and pad in hand, looking skyward and jotting aff1uveous notes, Jacky stepped |of the dock and into the drink, coming up and blowing like six schools of whales sporting about with each other. The notes got wet and spirits somewhat damp ened and got himself into dry b.v.d's none the worse for the experience and perhaps a little wiser.

No one saw the youngster when the car started, nor do they know how he got there, tho a number of people were on both sides of the car. A bunch of bruises as a penalty for hanging on to cars as they start on trips.
 / When the Queen came into port, the parents of the boy went aboard the boat, leaving him in the care of Doctor Rude with out making necessary arrange mentS so to do. A little tele- phpning and the marshal escort ed the parents back to care foi their youngster.

Packers Paper Gives Warning

The Pacific Fisherman has this to say about the fisheries situation in Southeast Alaska:
 "The pink pack is still uncer- tain, but the poor showing so far in Southeast Alaska indi cates that the shortage may be serious <"
 The pack of the first run of salmon this year was at the ex- pense of seed fish which never reached spawning grounds. The real run fsalmon is now on since the close season reports in dicate an overstocking of most of the streams in all of the dis trict. Which condition will be a detriment rather than benefit to the industry.
 Are Said To Have" @
 Traps have made rather poor returns, (Icy Straits) but some 93 seiners fishing in Icy Strait are said to have made large catches"
 Any boat now making a catch of 400 or 500 hundred salmon said to be making large catches. When the report of the large catches" first came out, we in- vestigated them and found them to be without foundation ot fact and only for purposes ot propaganda.

Herring Pack Is Big Failure
 From Pacific Fisherman
From Pacific Fisherman

Herring curing in Alaska to August l Was almost . complete failure, with production running only about lO or 12 per cent of that for the corresponding peri od in 1928. With ALL OF THE OLDER DISTRICTS VOID OF CURING FISH, some attention turned to the Aleutian area early in July and by the middle of the month operations there were begun.
 One estimate of Southeast Alaska cured herring produc- tions to the end of July was ? 900 half barrels, and the Qual- fly was indicerent. While her ring of any sort have been scarce, prime fish have been all ImoSt entirely wanting, catches being confined to small, lean fish. Some improvement was noted during the last days of July and early August, herring being materially more abund- Iant and, though the fish were too small to be choice, they were IQuite fat,
 The situation in South east Alaska is so severe as to give rise to serious miSgivings. While there is ample time for production of a substantial pack, If the herring strike in with in creased volume and greatly i'm proved quality, distinct uneaSi- ness is manifest over the out look for the season. A number of reasons are advanced to ac- count for the scarcity and poor ness of the fish and it appears certain that the inclement weather has had the effect of substantially reducing catches. Fishermen have reported the fish abundant oc-shore, altho it is not clear whether such fish are of desireable quality.
 A survey of reports from the principle packers of herring in Southeat Alaska fails to show 3 single instance in which pro duction runs more t han SMALL FRACTION of that for the corresponding period of last year. Some large plants had
 not packed a single barrel to August 1. One operator, whose
 928 pack ranked among the
 largest in the district, on July 25
 had only 38 barrels, where a year before his pack ran we'll ov- Ter 2,000 barrels Most of the
 cases are not so marked, but
 there are a few instances where
 the pack to the end of July was
 more than 10 per cent of that to the same date in 1928.
