THE ALASKA FISHERMAN

tion that it's reputed catch is one million annually. But why go on? You claim to have had an inti- mate experience covering nine years in Alaska and to have talk ed with hundreds of witnesses, so you must know all about this. If you don't, then you had no busi- ness writing such an article for The Saturday Evening Post.
 (3). Spacing o1 fish traps. In the southern district of South eastern Alaska, the traps are re- quired to be one mile apart. In the Icy Strait District, the in- tervals must be One and one-half miles. Can you or anybody else give a sensible reason for this? The two areas are identical in all their problems. What was the difference? Simply this--that in Icy Straits, Henry O'Malley was dealing with a bare half dozen companies and it was not diff cult to "adjust" the traps ac- cording to the new regulations. In the southern district, there were too many companies and so one mile was used.
 But what about the result?
 Have you found anybody who has had the least practical ex- perience who would say that there was any decrease in the trap catch? I would like to know his name if there is.
 What was the real purpose of this regulation?
 Simply this-that the compan- ies no longer had to build "dum- my'' traps to safeguard the real fisher. With the former rule of 1900 feet between traps, every canneryman would build trap Cn each side of the real fisher, :aid trap a dummy" because it was not built to catch fish but to keep competitors away from the real fisher.

Throughout his varied career. this veteran had been

president and general manager.
There is an open road from the lowest rung OF the

He made it because he had the pluck, the capacity. the
efficiency and the determination to surnotint the bar

bill and it is certain to be enacted If a final vote
should be taken before the close Of the session.
South Americans are practically barred.
AS for Mexico. the quota limit would not go into
effect Immediately, as the revised bill carries a pro-
vision that 1l,O2l native born Mexicans be allowed TO
come in during the fiscal year 1881 and 6e61 In 1892.
Thereafter, the number to be admitted is limited to
1900.

Growers of cotton are reminded by the department
Of commerce that cotton exports from the United
States in 1929 amounted to 7.4So.ooO bales. or over l.
100000 less than in 1928. nearly 100000 less than in
1927. 100000 bales under 1926 and 100000 less than
in 1925.
In 1929 cotton exports to European countries were
lower than in any years since the pre-war period.
Now why increase the acreage this year? Why in
wife cheap cotton, financial disaster and abject pow
erty? Unless cotton production is controlled. the
growers will continue to produce it far beolw the cost
OF production.
Rayon is playing havoc with cotton and the rayon
mills of Europe are increasing in number and out
put.
There are thousands Of tenants in the American
cotton growing states who exc out a precarious ex-
istence from cradle to grave. Why not lift them out
OF the rut?

When Elanda was a little girl her
