purposes" The said bill will re- suit in great harm and loss to the people of the nation"
 Can anyone question that the fisheries question of Alaska is as vital an issue as it was in 1916? And can anyone ques- tion the sincere interest that Judge Wickersham takes in this subject? And as a Delegate to Congress again can there be any doubt as to the fight that Judge Wickersham would put up in be- half of the fisheries and the peo- pie of the Territory who are con- cerned in this great industry? He has proven his worth in the past and by his deeds he is known and appreciated.

Benefit of Tax Payers

In the 1927 session of the Leg 'slature, Representative William L. Paul introduced and had passed in the House a bill that materially increased the school refunds to the various municip- elites of the Territory. This bill was fought in the Senate by Commissioner of Education L. D. Henderson and was cham Iioned by Senator Steel, who finally secured it's passage in amended form, but which in- creased the refunds to Ketchi- kan and Juneau from $20, ,00O to $30,000, while the smaller towns turnout the Territory received an increase of 10 per cent. The opposition by MT. Henderson Trade that bill of no benefit to Petersburg but accepting the amended bill as a step in the right direction. In the 1929 ses- sion, Senator Steel secured the passage of a much more liberal bill in the Senate but the House cut the refund. But when the bill went to conference the re- fund to the larger cities was in- creased to $4O,OOO and there was no further increase to the small CT towns. <, :.

 But Delegate Wickersham was not directing his opposition to the bill entirely to the above feature, for he said:
 'Now, MT. Chairman, I want to take up another feature of this matter, because the question of taxation is in my judgment the smallest evil in this bill. I want to talk to you about that feature of the bill which gives monopoly of the control and ownership of these Alaska fish cries to three great corpora tiOns."
 After more discussion, MT. Cooper of Wisconsin remarked: ''To put a short interpretation On it, the claim that these fisheries are open to anybody to have a site and secure it is pure sham?" To which Delegate Wickersham replied: "Yes; and it is much purer sham when you know that these big canneries have the maps already to file, and all they are waiting for is the passage of this bill to enter

 There were many interesting passages in the controversy over this bill that would prove inter esting reading, but to publish them would make a newspaper article too long. Many peti- tions and protests from fisher men of Alaska were received by the Delegate. urging him to fight the bill. That Delegate Wick ersham did lend a willing ear to the protests of the fishermen is evidenced by the strenuous and successful fight he made in their behalf.
