COMMUNICATION
Editor, Seward Gateway:


 In reading over the issue of the Seward Gateway dated May 3rd, notice an item in regard to the let ters received from several different states containing protests against the killing of brown bear and the destruction of game trout.
 I wish to state that the writers of such letters are very much in error when they call Dolly Warden trout game fish. Certainly no real sportsman would consider them such We are making an effort to rid the Becharoff Lake spawning grounds of these pests and are making headway. We expect to take a great many during the com- ing season
 I I have spent large part of my life on. or near the salmon streams of Alaska and I consider the plac- ing of a bounty on these trout the greatest simple step ever taken to help build up the red salmon run.
 In regard to the argument as to whether the trout destroy enough young salmon to justify their ex- tinction, will say that if the people upholding such a belief would only Ipay a short visit to the Bristol Bay spawning grounds they would not only cease to argue but would be amazed to think that it is possible for any of the young red salmon to ever reach the ocean.
 { In closing I wish to state that during the past season not 9 single game trout has been destroyed at Becharoff Lake. A continuation |of this work will not only help the salmon industry but will also be 9 great help to the local residents, the merchants and the country at large Yours very truly, An old Sourdough.

CLASH ENLNENS
WARDMAN HEARING
Defense Attorney Objects to
Attempt of Plaintiff to
Introduce Testimony.

A clash of counsel enliyened the pro-
ceedings in the hearing of the suit OF
minority stockholders for the appoint
ment of a receiver for the Wardman
Mortgage & Discount Corporation.
which were resumed in Corporation
Court in Alexandria today, when Daniel
Thew Wright, defense attorney, OBJ
jected to an attempt on the part OF
plaintiff attorneys TO introduce certain
testimony.
Defense Offers Objection.
When Attorney Harry +. Kennedy Of
plaintiffs counsel attempted TO have
Mrs. Augusta Brown, former bookkeep-
er of the defendant corporation, testify
concerning a letter which was sent to
stockholders and which Kennedy said
did not reflect the true financial condt-
ton of the company, as known to Harry
Wardman, Mr.. Wright and others, Mr..
Wright asserted that the counsel for
the plaintiffs certainly picked a good
place to make that statement, as he
would have to observe the Sanctity OF
the court.
Mr.. Kennedy failed in his attempt
to get this testimony before the court
and also failed in an attempt to have
Edward K. Fox of Washington, testify
concerning SIOCk IDuICllusc WHICH uuNeN
William d. Woolls ruled that the plain
tiffs had already announced that they
had closed their side of the case.
Certified Copies Ruled.
Plaintiff counsel introduced into evil
dence certified copies of stock issue
statements of the State Corporation
Commission and letters between the
commission and Mr.. Wright, concerning
the formation of the company, which
they had attempted to introduce earlier
in the suit, only to have 1t held by the
court that certified copies must be fur
nished.
The defense resumed the cross-ex-
animation of John Berg, a certified pub
lie accountant, employed by the plain
tiff. and sought to show that The
corporation had a surplus to pay divi-
dends, which Kennedy previously had
charged they did not have. The case,
which was in its eighth day in court
today, has already run through more
than 600 pages of court record, accord
ing to the court stenographer.

nounce Proposal.

The proposed code to regulate bill
boards, signs. and outdoor advertising
generally came in for alternate praise
ard announcement at a public hearing
before the District Commissioners in
the board room Of the District Build
ing yesterday.
The code was supported by the
American Institute of Architects by the
Piney Branch Citizens Association, and
by Rufus S. Lusk of the Operative
Builders Association, who was voicing
his personal views.
It was assailed by representatives OF
the industry generally and by the sign
painters union. which said that Its
enactment would put half of its mem
bers out of business.
Percy H. Marshall represented the
outdoor advertising business. He said
the regulations we're based on esthetlcs,
whereas such regulations would stand
I'D in court only If they were based
on public health and safety. He sald
that the provision that illuminated
signs must be approved as to color by
the building inspector put the INDUS
try at the mercy Of color-blind build
ing inspectors.
At the start of the meeting pictures
of buildings plastered with large col
lections of Objectionable signs were in
troduced as evidence by the District
Mr. Marshall countered with series OF
pictures of dumps" which would be i'm
proved. he commended, by being hidden
by large, handsome billboards.
Mai Gen Anton Stephan. president
Of the Merchants g. Manufacturers AS
ISOLATION. said his association had not
had time to pass on the regulations, and
asked for extended time in which to f1le
a brief January 20 was set as date
on which all briefs must be flled. He
said that he supported many of the OBJ
iections of Mr.. Marshall. Arthur j,
Sunderland of the Washington Chamber
of Commerce said that body likewise
had not had time enough to consider
the regulations, and that 1t would file
brief
Gibbs L. Baker of the Action Adver-
Using Co., objected to the provision
against signs not representative of bust
nesses conducted on the premises.
Howard T. Colvin, business repre-
sentative of the Sign Painters Local
Union, No 1879, said the regulation
would put so per cent of the members
out of business.
Mr. Lusk, said he hoped the code
would prevail and wipe billboards out
of existence in Washington.
James w Mullins, vice president of
the outdoor Advertising Association
of the District and Maryland, said that
his association would submit an alter
would solve the problems Of the Dis
trict and the industry.
Mr.. Henderson, speaking for the Piney
